Very friendly owners. Great food in the tavern. Close to a sandy beach with crystal clear water (I think due to small waves).
Only 394 feet from Frangokastello Beach on the Libyan Sea, Notos Villas offer self-catering accommodations in detached houses. They all feature a patio and a terrace with mountain views.

This property’s location is excellent, front beach location with a good restaurant right next door. Our host was really attentive to our every need. Its a great value for the location and the spacious apartment. we loved it so much that we ended up staying 4 days total when we originally had booked it for 2 days. Such a hidden gem if you want to go relax by the beach all day and enjoy the sun. its located close proximity to the ferries incase you want to venture out to other ports like Loutro and Sweet water beach among other places. The host was great and checked on us daily via text to make sure all our needs were met. The restaurant next door has some good quality food with friendly staff.

Wild and wonderful corner of South Crete, with not many turists. Frangokastello offers the possibility to know sea and mountains, beaches are beautiful and of different typologies (sandy, pebbles, cliff). Tavernas (fish and/or meat) are numerous and of very good quality, not at all expensive

I liked the hosting family very much, who did their best to make us comfortable after we complained about our first night there with no hotwater or view of Sea as advertised.We were moved upstairs to a better room. We enjoyed walking to the bakery for fresh bread and baked goods and a good supermarket was near. Also a good bay for swimming and lots of naturewalks in area but you need a car. Took ferry to Agia Roumeli whereas walked to a part of the Samaria gorge from the south

We are regular visitors to Frango.
We are regular visitors to Frango. It is a beautiful quiet location with a great selection o. While there are 4 or 5 tavernas near the Venetian castle tavernas ( Avoid Drousillites) the rest are spread out over 3/4 kilometres from Vatalos (Sfakia direction) on the west to Zorbas (highly recommended on the east (Plakias direction)
Three distinct beach areas
1. Orthi Amnos long golden beach reached directly by steps near the beautiful Paradisos/Fata Morgana complex.
2. The Venetian castle again golden sands and water that remains shallow for a couple of hundred metres so very suitable for young kids or nervous swimmers/paddlers.
3. Near Stavros Taverna and Stavris Apartments and and stone beach with free sunbeds under shady trees. ( buy a drink or meal at the tavernas.
Frango stretches over a flat plateau-like area (about 6Km X 3km oval shape locked between the Libyan sea and the impress Lefka Ori mountains close to the IMBROS GORGE. A car is very useful but not essential. Bicycles are wonderful alternative and some apartments provide these complimentary. For us the heart of the community is the Taverna Kali Cardia (Good Heart) run by Thanassos and his son Alexi. Always good company and with fabulous traditional home-cooked Cretan meals. We have been travelling here for over 25 years and regularly encounter friends on return visits in this homely taverna.

We loved southern Crete.
We loved southern Crete. Much less built up and touristy than the north. The beaches are nice and gently sloping - amazing turquoise water. We had a day when the wind was really blowing but otherwise it was beautifully calm and enjoyable. Great place to explore more of the southern coast from.

the accomodation we stayed in didn’t fullfill our expectations, but for just staying the night was it ok. Definitely recommend the beach. It is beautiful with just few people and amazing views, sand beach and sea. I also recommend the taverna above the beach, it was very tasty and for a perfect price. The best trip we made was the Imbros gorge, even though there were a lot of people but it was very nice.

It's 15th year of my family's holidays there.
It's 15th year of my family's holidays there. We really love the city and all surrounding places. It's impossible to get bored.
I really love Vatalos Taverna and their family's concept for traditional cretan cuisine, cleanliness and friendship. Corali is a new nice discovery for us, after a short visit 2 years ago to one of their music nights.
We were greeted by a very friendly captain Tom that showed us around. Our room was spacious, clean, comfortable and we had everything we needed. The pool looked very inviting, but unfortunately we didn't have time to try it. We wished we could have stayed for longer Loved the cats and the cats loved us back for giving them our extra ham:)) Would definitely stay here again. Google maps doesn't give the correct location. There is a sign on the road, that we missed, but we were helped by a very nice young boy to find the hotel.
Amazing accommodation right by the beach, private garden to relax, grill and beaches without people. If you want to experience real Crete, we recommend. A great host took care of us and recommended beautiful trips. Not far from the accommodation is an excellent tavern. As a family we were very linked, we will definitely return 💕.
Paradisos indeed! lovely place in a very beautiful part of Crete, quiet, relaxing and safe. the studio was clean and comfortable, the territory around tranquil and picturesque, staff were friendly and helpful. plenty of parking spaces and very close to the village; a number of taverns in walking distance, gorgeous views
The best place I’ve been while I was in Crete.
location is just speechless, 30 mins from Sfakia. you are surrounded by nature and nothing else. just few steps and you have this cliff and down below a private beach.
I very much recommend it for any ruppe of stay (from 1 night up to stay for the whole vacation).
The fantastic tranquility of the surrounding and the hotel area creates an environment that helps relaxation. Superb breakfast and great hosting by the Anthos team.
