    Such a beautiful little seaside village that comes to life at night. Could have stayed longer and enjoyed the views, vibes and people. Also we found the pricing cheaper for food and drinks. I must stop

    The room was clean and relatively new looking.

    The room was clean and relatively new looking. There is no wifi or tv in room. They have wifi at the bar and should be able to get it to rooms with routers but have not bothered. The bed was a disaster, it was hardest bed I have ever tried to sleep on. My wife and I both hardly slept and had sore back in the morning. We have been travelling for over 5 weeks had no problem with any other beds.

    There is a great vibe at Matala that differs from the rest of Creta. The hippie feel is true. We caught live music the night we were there and it was the best moment. This along with the red beach - strongly recommend.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot.

    Matala is a tourist hot spot. So a lot of restaurants there, lot of tourist shops with souvenirs and a lot of people. The beach itself is not that big, but it was nice though. I mean it really depends on what you are looking for. I am more fond of less crowded and less touristy places, so perhaps next time I would look for something more matching my preferences. On the other hand there is nothing wrong about Matala at all. All the people there are very friendly. Really it depends on what you prefer...

    Matala is a quiet little town with not a lot of traffic, music or noise. You come here to relax. If you like naturist beaching this place is definitely for you (Red beach and Komos beach). Moreover, Matala can be a good base for visiting the area (you have to rent a car or a bike).

    Beautiful little hippie Place with lots of Restaurants, Bars and Cafés. The beach in matala, the red beach and the caves of matala are a must see. When you are in matala I would recommend the Restaurants Georges Yard, Plaka and Hakuna matata.

    We only spend 2 nights at Coral. But it was great! The Manager of the Hotel, Eleni, is very sweet and so Friendly, she is just lovely! The Breakfast ist perfekt, they offer a lot of different things, so there is everything for everyones taste! Its just a small walk to the beach and the center of Matala. The Rooms are simple but good and very clean and the beds are very good. We will definitely come back next year and we can really recommend the Coral Hotel.

    Very good breakfast. Welcoming host Yannis. Very good location. Red beach and Kommos beach not far. On a lazy day local beach is only 5 minutes walk away which is full of different bars, restaurants, tavernas. Even on a lazier day hotel is equipped with swimming pool which is a lovely place to relax. Very good quality free wifi compared to the places we stayed in the past. Overall, excellent value for money.

    Paradise Matala is very well located. We have been here before and we can only recommend the place. Super clean, friendly staff, nice breakfast and a great pool. We booked a room in July and we could not come to Matala. We live in Crete, so we asked to come at a later date. Giorgos was so kind to let us come in October. Here you find real Cretan hospitality. We love it!

    Alexandra is extremely welcoming and helpful. We had a room with upstairs balcony. There is a shared kitchen facility which is useful for breakfast and drinks. Room was clean and comfortable. Rooms are on the Matala Old Road (10 minute walk into town) and near to bus stop, great for days out (eg Phaestos) and bus to Kommos Beach.

    The hotel is 5 stars in terms of cleanliness and peacefulness! The breakfast is generous and is made home (jams, cakes and honey)! We received a warm welcome. It is located at 1.4km from the beach and the restaurants. It is an easy flat walk. Matala is a great place: absolutely beautiful and chill !

    The hostel was great, quite big with a lot of young people around. Staff is very friendly and always helpful. Can’t even describe the beauty of Matala and the beaches around there. We used Matala Hostel as a base to explore southern Crete and we can’t wait to go back! <333
