We received a warm welcome from the hosts, they helped us with information and recommendations. Located perfectly, the place offers some peace, but just around the corner you will find city center and the beach. Matala is such a nice city, we were sorry we could stay only one night.

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.

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
