We wanted seclusion and quiet, and this hotel met the criteria perfectly. The room was absolutely gorgeous, and having our own private dipping pool was fantastic! The view was breathtaking. While the hotel does not have a "usable" beach per se, Balos Lagoon is not far away, so be sure to take full advantage of it and go early in the morning—you will not be disappointed. We did ot use the primary pool but it looked well maintained.
We booked a full-board experience, and while the food was average to good, it was convenient not having to choose a restaurant every night, so we were happy with our choice.
Laundering services are available and reasonably priced. We received our items back the same day, which was a nice bonus.

Kissamos hotel was one of our favorite stays ever.🧡 Located just a few minutes walk from Kissamos center, close to Balos, Falassarna and Elafonissi beach (top 3 beaches in Crete!), walking distance to bakeries and stores, with parking and pool. This is family owned business, owners are extremely friendly, always available for all questions and requests. Rooms were clean and we had everyone we need for a perfect stay. I would gladly recommend everyone to choose this property for they stay in Crete and we would definitely come back.

Kissamos is an excellent home base for trips to Balos and also for Elafonisi, much closer than Chania. There are also many restaurants along the beach in walking distance. We didn't swim there but it is possible. You might consider Falasarno for a few days for a beautiful beach with surf!

It’s a small town but we could enjoy walking along the beautiful beaches. There are some supermarkets so that we could get fresh vegetables and also fresh fish which were really tasty. There are a lot of buses and they are usually very on time. We could make our schedule smoothly and everything went super!

The place is very quiet and relaxing, especially during the dusk & the night where you can have your dinner in the big balcony & view all the stars in the sky, after a full day at the nearby beaches. Is a perfect location to visit west Crete, 15-20 min from the amazing Falassarna beach and 20 min from the parking place of the famous Balos beach. Also, it is less than 60 min to visit the unique Elafonisi beach.
I would definitely choose this villa again in my next visit to west Crete!

As part of exploring Crete, Kissamos is a must visit because it offers trips to some of the most beautiful site & beaches on Chania area.
2-4 night I would say its enough, but you could stay longer.

Kissamos was really chilled, laid-back, peaceful and friendly. If you're looking for a wild party scene, it's definitely not the place to come! But if you want tranquility and to feel safe whilst soaking up sun, nature, and local culture, it's perfect
The room was very spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Everything was very clean and the view of the pool as well as the sea was really nice. The location of the hotel is very close to the best beaches in Crete. The breakfast was delicious and the staff was very helpful. Also the wifi was excellent making it ideal even for those who are in town for business.
Perfectly situated in Kissamos. You just need to cross a small street and you have a lovely beach where you can swim and an excellent restaurant Maria Beach where you can have your dinner looking at the bay. The hotel is clean and the garden with the swimming pool are lovely. The breakfast is home made and excellent.
Very nice and kind Staff
Parking on the road for free in front of the hotel
Close to the beach
Kissamos position is good to go (by car) to other popular beaches of crete such as balos, elafonissi (Kissamos is closer than Chania, but also way smaller with less restaurant and shops )
The unit is new and very confortable with and unobstructed seaview. Great big balcony.Close to many Kissamos restaurants. One of the best appartment we had in our 2 weeks vacation in Crete.The beach is sandy if you go on the west side and perfect for swim.
The hotel team is really friendly and they have a lot of recommendations.
It feels like you come to a friend's house from the first moment.
Really nice room in the centre of the town .
In 4 minutes you are at the beach.
One of the nicest places in Crete.
