I had an amazing stay at the hostel in Matala. The location was perfect, just a few steps from the beach and close to all the local attractions. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with all the amenities one could need. The staff was the best and truly made me feel at home.

Fantastic location, there is paid parking next to the structure, and you can get around Matala easily on foot. Beautiful view of the canyon and Matala is certainly a place to visit and stop to enjoy the beach and its peculiarities. Clean room and helpful and kind managers.

The room was basic but comfortable, and the host was helpful. The location near the center of town and the beach is really convenient, and the breakfast, at a cafe down the road, is excellent, with a good selection and friendly service.

Location very very convenient for the beach and the center of Matala (everything can be reached in 1 min walking). Beautiful view from the terrace. For us it was not a problem but consider that music from bars below the terrace is up until 2 am and sometimes later. The host is very kind and answers immediately to requests
