Located 12 km from the ancient city of Phaestos, family-run Dimitris Villa Hotel is on the coast of Messara bay, surrounded by trees, just 8 minutes from Matala beach.

Great little place! Lovely pool and cute apartments with great TV and shower facilities. Balconies get the evening sun. Plenty of parking which is hard to find in Matala. Superb location. The pool area is lovely and calm, nice little bar and breakfast was great! A very very short walk to the action. Matala is a very small place. Superb price and very lovely staff!

    Such a beautiful little seaside village that comes to life at night. Could have stayed longer and enjoyed the views, vibes and people. Also we found the pricing cheaper for food and drinks. I must stop

    The room was clean and relatively new looking.

    The room was clean and relatively new looking. There is no wifi or tv in room. They have wifi at the bar and should be able to get it to rooms with routers but have not bothered. The bed was a disaster, it was hardest bed I have ever tried to sleep on. My wife and I both hardly slept and had sore back in the morning. We have been travelling for over 5 weeks had no problem with any other beds.

    There is a great vibe at Matala that differs from the rest of Creta. The hippie feel is true. We caught live music the night we were there and it was the best moment. This along with the red beach - strongly recommend.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot. So a lot of restaurants there, lot of tourist shops with souvenirs and a lot of people. The beach itself is not that big, but it was nice though. I mean it really depends on what you are looking for. I am more fond of less crowded and less touristy places, so perhaps next time I would look for something more matching my preferences. On the other hand there is nothing wrong about Matala at all. All the people there are very friendly. Really it depends on what you prefer...

    Matala is a quiet little town with not a lot of traffic, music or noise. You come here to relax. If you like naturist beaching this place is definitely for you (Red beach and Komos beach). Moreover, Matala can be a good base for visiting the area (you have to rent a car or a bike).

    Beautiful little hippie Place with lots of Restaurants, Bars and Cafés. The beach in matala, the red beach and the caves of matala are a must see. When you are in matala I would recommend the Restaurants Georges Yard, Plaka and Hakuna matata.

    We had a wonderful time in Matala. The apartment is in a very central position and close to all the services, 30 seconds to the beach. Cozy, clean apartment with a private backyard. The owner is a wonderful person, very kind who gave us a lot of care. Loved the vibes of the place, 100% suggested!! Κάρυστο Βούλα!!

    The property is a family run business, the studio was super clean as they clean your studio every day. The room was very confortable in a nice environment with a small patio to yourself. The apartment is located one block from the Main Street full with restaurants and about two blocks from the beach.

    The staff is really friendly and helpful, the garden with the pool and the bar at the entrance are very nice. Breakfast has a lot of choices and the location is 5 mins walking from the beach but far from the noisy town centre. The room is fine (special mention to the bathroom). Highly recommended!!!

    I booked this hotel because was very close to the caves of Matala. I loved the view of the mountain from my window and definitely recommend this hotel as it looks the best at walking distance from the beach and the caves. Lovely breakfast, clean rooms and helpful staff.

    It is a family run hotel, a 20-minute walk from Matala beach. The accommodation had 2 rooms. cramped with beds and other furniture. It had a slight 1980's feel to it. There is a pool as well as an adjacent breakfast/dinner covered space.

    Cleio was really helpful, she came to meet us and take us to the apartment. The place is right on the beach. You can stay all day long in the apartment and just go out for a swim or food, which is next door.

    The location was just perfect, no need to stay on the beach when you can just walk down and take a swim. The night view of the Matala rocks is amazing. We had the best holiday here.
