Agia Roumeli is a small village, which mainly accommodates those who visit the Samaria Gorge. Access is either by foot from the gorge or by boat from other parts of Sfakia region.
It is definitely recommended to stay in Agia Roumeli after visiting the Gorge, as it is a quite demanding hike and some time to rest and relax is much needed.
Lots of nice restaurants and cafes to choose from. People are warm and welcoming, and the Agia Roumeli beach is also lovely.

In May, after ferries leave, a very sleepy, romantic place to be in. Next day, while travellers from Samaria arrive, a bit crowdy village :-) The atmosphere is very nice, great to experience, a great spot to stay after your Samaria walk and maybe even a bit longer!

Agia Roumeli offers activities for both sea and mountain lovers, and good, Cretan food based on local products. It should thus be considered as a destination on its own and not just a transfer area after exiting the Samaria Gorge.

Wonderful town, away from the big crowds.
Wonderful town, away from the big crowds. Crystal clear blue waters with great swimming and snorkelling possibilities. 2-3 decent restaurants, which in combination with having a small supermarket and our own kitchen was ideal for up to a week.
The town is crowded only for a few hours per day when hikers come down from the gorge. Me and my partner immediately felt at home and decided to stay one more night than planned. A lovely little gem that I’d love to visit again.

The beach has black sand, so is too hot to sit on or walk on, and the water is not always clean, depending on the wind direction. Agia Roumeli serves more as an exit or entrance point to Samaria Gorge, which means that most tourists are "one-time" visitors. So related services are overpriced and of poor quality.
Which is a pity, because it is a very nice village, that could be worth staying a couple more days.

Samaria Gorge is outstanding as usual, even in late October.
Samaria Gorge is outstanding as usual, even in late October.
It is worthwhile to hike from Agia Roumeli to Agios Pavlos and back.
The most beautiful path in Chania, in Crete, in Greece, in Europe, in the world. Friendly people everywhere and amazing sea after the gorge
I didnt like I paid for mini bus from Samaria exit to the Agia Roumeli town and there was no receipt. If this business is public, they should include the cost to the Samaria ticket, if is private they should give receipt. People should not feed Kri Kri wild goats.
Good location away from the beach crowds, but still very close to the beach and restaurants. This is a very well-run family operation: friendly, helpful and professional, and full of local knowledge about the area. They also have a restaurant nearby (studio guests receive a discount!). The studios are large, comfortable and very clean. The wifi was acceptable. We would definitely stay here again.
clean & comfortable & well equipped apartment. the bed is super amazing comfortable !
Athina is super amazing kind & generous & hospitable host.
good location in Agia Roumeli - very close to the beach ( fabulous deep sea swimming) and also close to the beginning of the Gorge walk but also away from the sometimes more busy , very centre of the village .
Right in front of the beach and in the very city center, nearby the cafes and restaurants. We stayed here after the long hike of Samaria Gorge and was everything that we needed for resting and recovering. The room had a view of the mountains and the very dramatic landscape. The owner was very helpful and friendly and gave us many precious tips.
I had so much fun staying here after hiking Samaria Gorge! Mr. Nektarius and his wife were so welcoming and kind and I felt at home the minute I got there. The room was simple but it was very clean, good air conditioning, and the view was great. 10/10 would recommend staying here!
Great little space with such a welcoming and helpful host, Joseph.
The room was spacious, clean, and equipped with the basics expected of a studio; we were also offered a portable beach umbrella, which was a nice touch.
Would definitely stay again if we return to Agia Roumeli.
We got a recently renovated comfortable room for super cheap. The room was just over the owner's minimarket which was really convenient and much quieter than other hotels over restaurants. Agia roumeli is super small so everything was 5 minutes walking max
Extremely friendly owner and staff. Lovely terrace, with great food. So peaceful and beautiful in the evenings, after the boat goes. In mid-July, the river was running, cool and green, at the foot of the Samaria Gorge -- perfect for evening paddles.
The location is just around the corner from the port. Close to both a sandy and a pebble beach. The family operating the hotel and the restaurant were incredibly accommodating and welcoming. They speak great English among otherlanguages.
It was a nice refuge after a long hike in Samaria gorge. We loved the beautiful water views from the balcony, and enjoyed cooling down with the A/C. The owners were extremely welcoming and it was a great value!
Calypso is very cozy and welcoming place to be. This hotel is owned by friendly family and their hospitality, homemade delicious food is just worth coming back. Good luck and see you next time! 🙂
Best location in the village, nice view from the terrace and really helpfull and friendly staff. Would recommend it to everyone. Private beach in front of the hotel. Food is nice.
Over the last 20 years I always stay here everytime I visit Agia Roumeli. Also try their food for Cretan home made cooking. Your host will always make you feel at home.
very convenient location, a welcome rest after the long walk down the beautiful Samaria Gorge.
Proprietor was great, cheerful, accommodating and an excellent host.
