The position is perfect, very close to Elafonisi and to the best beaches of Crete. The atmosphere is very friendly, you will feel like in the family. We had breakfast and dinner in the restaurant of the house just in front of the room. We suggest a balcony room sea view! Wonderful!

This is an excellent place to stay for a quiet holiday. I absolutely loved my time here, I felt safe on my own and got the rest and relaxation I needed. I would definitely recommend it.
The whole area is very beautiful. Starting with the journey to arrive at this place. You need to drive thru the Topolia gorge which is gorgeous. Once you pass the mountains you reach a terrain covered with scattered trees, palm trees, growing on the side of the mountain. The beach itself is lovely. I think going off-season was a good idea, since it was not crowded.

Very popular beach with two or three areas with sunbeds and umbrellas for rent. Quite busy but the vibe was overall pleasant with lots of families enjoying the beach. Basic sandwiches to go and drinks are available at a snack bar on the beach. The hike down from the parking area can be challenging in the heat.

Beautiful area!
Beautiful area! The water is very shallow on the main beach so you can walk to the islet. The water gets deeper on the other side of the islet and you can snorkel/swim there. There are fishes and the water is clear/turquoise.
If you like to explore and walk around the coast in any direction, you will find natural pools and coves for wild swimming. The water was safe and calm.
I managed to swim in different coves every day, several spots over 5 days so there is plenty to see and not be bored. There are wild goats which you might spot while hiking.
You also have convenience stores, restaurants and food stalls.

Elafonisi is the most overrated beach in Crete.
Elafonisi is the most overrated beach in Crete.
Super crowded. The sand is not pink. It's a normal sand. The beach resorts are expensive, usually they are full and the chairs are attached. On top of that, you need to walk 20 minutes to reach the sea.

My favourite place in Crete. It is in a great position, only 15 minutes by car from Elafonisi. There is a parking and you can reach a beautiful beach with a 5 minutes walk. Close to the hotel there are a couple of good restaurants. We had the room with the little balcony, with a lovely view on the sea. In the evening and night there is complete silence around. The room is big, clean and recently renovated. The host is very kind. 100% recommended
Really lovely staff who made us feel so welcome, good location only a 5-10 min drive to Elafonisi Beach car parks (there is a walk from there). Great breakfast if you want to eat in the upstairs restaurant and we really enjoyed sitting there each evening with a drink, watching the sun set over the monastery and out to sea,
Beautiful 2-floors-villa with swimming pool and sea view, located very close to the wonderful beach of Elafonisi (around 4,5km faraway). 2 wide bedrooms with balcony, one of which had 2 single beds; 2 bathrooms, a well equipped kitchen and a wide dining room with TV. Very clean. Suitable for a family or a couple.
Everything was perfect, good location, I traveled for work, so the location was perfect for me in this regard though, but the elafonisi beach is just 5 mins walking. The apartment was really clean and quiet.
