Pension Romantika offers rooms with a furnished balcony and free Wi-Fi, 500 metres away from the sandy beach of Matala. Within 300 metres, you can reach the town’s centre, where you will find many bars and restaurants.

Great location and a 10 minute walk to the Center. I was able to find Romantica easily and font door parking. Maria and her family where super nice and accommodating from the minute we got there to when we left. The rooms where spacious and clean.

Featuring mountain views, Olympias Studio "Pitsidia" offers accommodation with a garden and a balcony, around 2.1 km from Kommos Beach. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The accommodation provides free WiFi throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a family-friendly restaurant.

Dedicated parking inside the property, the studio reflects the pictures and is very cosy. Water and fruit in the fridge are a definitive plus. Coffee and tea facilities. A small kitchen is available, but we didn't use is as we were surrounded by great restaurants only few steps away. Mike and Olimpia are perfect hosts, giving you tips on what to see on a printed sheet. Perfect German organization! :) The place is quite, surrounded by plants, flowers and orange trees. Waking up with the smell of Frangipani and Jasmine from the balcony is priceless!

Knossos Hotel is centrally located in the coastal village of Kalamaki. It features free Wi-Fi access throughout and rooms with air conditioning. The beach is 150 metres away.

All the rooms at Knossos Hotel are fitted with solid wood furnishings. Each opens out to balcony and includes a private bathroom.

Simplicity meets practicality. Small yet cosy rooms, recently refurbished, clean sheets, cold A/C and a more than decent continental breakfast. We were greeted with a contagious smile and that was more than enough to enjoy our time there!

    Great hosts, delicious breakfast, plenty of parking spaces and good for money rooms (clean and with decent beds). Nothing to complain about. Don't be fooled by the fact that the hotel appears outside of the main village - it's just a very short walk to the centre of Matala.
