    Unfortunately the people at the reception do not make you feel welcome and are rude. They do not check if you booked a room with dinner. We did not book a room with dinner only with breakfast. At checking out he never mentioned that we had to pay for dinner. On our way to a next place, he kept phoning telling us that we had to pay for 2 dinners. The only argument was that he saw us in the hotel on two nights. Finally he had to admit that he made a mistake.

    Matala Bay Hotel is the best hotel in Matala. There is a beautiful garden with a large swimming pool. Efcharisto poli Yannis and Yohanina. They were very kind to us at breakfast. The location amidst the rock formations is amazing.

    The only downside was the bed, not very comfortable.

    Really good position to the centre of Matala, staff very polite and approachable, spotlessly clean, lovely pool area, room was again spotlessly clean, and the breakfast was great, would definitely rebook

    Paying for wine every night was a pain rather than having a tab. Getting a drink was tough. Waiter was helpful to some people and downright rude to others. Sadly we were in the wrong group.

    We were upgraded so room was very good with nice views of the hills. Easy walk into town and Matala beach. Breakfast was good and buffet dinner was reasonable. Enjoyed our day at Red Beach worth the walk. Also remains at Festos, Gortyn and the new museum there.

    The outside could do with a revamp but once inside it is pretty modern.

    For the location the price was good. Just a 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach and restaurants.

    Hippie beach and (fortunately) un-hippie hotel. Great stay

    Minor discomfort is related to parking lot, which is small and not always it is possible to find unoccupied place. What's more, you need small car to fit it into place. Beside that the only suggestion is perhaps to - slightly - expand the breakfast menu. Anyway these remarks should not be taken as critical in the overall very positive assessment of the facility.

    Hotel has very good location, its rooms are well arranged, have spatious bathrooms and functional, efficient HVAC units. The stay was without any problems. Distance to the beach is around 500 m, similar to the main attraction, the old (roman and early Christian) caves delved in the face of the cliff hanging above the beach. Hotel has modest but clean, well maintained pool. Breakfasts, included in the cost of our room, were decent, nothing particularly excellent, but wide variety of dishes and products, organized in convention of Swedish table.
