We took two rooms with different rate. The better one on the up floor with one big bed and one single bed was equipped with tea pot and had a big balcony with a table and tree chairs, pool and mountain view which we really enjoyed. (The door to a balcony included the insects net that was very convinient) . The hotel rooms were clean. The air condition worked properly even outside was really hot. The hotel has its own parking

Very cozy and quiet hotel with friendly and helpful owner and staff. Stunning view to the mountain's. Lovely cats walking around. Big pool, where you can easily swim. Perfect localization. We always prefer small familiy objects instead of big modern hotels, because only there you are able to feel the spirit of the Crete.

    Matala is one of those places you didn't know you needed to visit until you go.. and then never want to leave. A long, sandy beach, with beautiful clear water, Matala is big enough to have a wide selection of places to eat & shop and yet not be too big. And in Scala & George's Yard it has two very, VERY good restaurants.

    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).

    Small but well appointed room. Very clean with a comfortable bed and extra pillows 😊. Just a few minutes walk to the beach and all the shops and restaurants in the village. Matala and the Hotel Sunshine lived up to and exceeded my expectations. The owner and staff were only too pleased to help with enquiries and at the end of our stay to store our bags and book a taxi for our onward journey. ❤️🇬🇷 Not forgetting Caramella the friendly dog. ❤️🇬🇷

    The location is ideal for anyone wanting to enjoy the sights & sounds of Matala itself. Steps from restaurants, shops and the beach it's fantastic. And as a base for venturing out to other parts of Crete, it's an easy trip to Heraklion, Rethymno, various cultural sites, or villages along the south coast. Parking is also very useful as this can be very painful in Matala during the high season. Would definitely return.

    We had a fantastic stay at Fantastic Matala—just like the name says, it truly is fantastic! The hotel is right in the heart of the village, which is both beautiful and full of authentic charm. It’s just a 2minutes walk from a stunning beach. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. Highly recommended!
