A great hotel. Our room was really comfortable and spotlessly clean. The staff are all so welcoming, friendly and can’t do enough to help you. Great set up and ideal for a holiday.

A lovely house which has two separate apartments. It worked well for us. Walking to a beach and a taverna each day was perfect. The pool was deep - all the women were out of their depth! The shaded area was lovely and the area is very quiet. We loved this place!

An absolute gem. The private beach is much nicer than the photos, perfect for snorkelling, the two pools are great and all the amenities kept in great condition. Rooms are spacious and clean. Staff always friendly. It’s probably the best hotel anywhere near this price, fully recommend!

Sfakia is a famous and historically significant area of Greece and Europe. It is an impressive region, rugged mountains and translucent waters, along with unparalleled food and hospitality. Of course you need to know where to go if you are not Greek.

5/5 - Excellent

Excellent for rambling, kayaking and swimming. Check weather forecast if you depend on the ferry to go home from Agia Roumeli or Loutro as the ferries don't run if the sea is rough. It's quite a hike along the coast path with your luggage!
