I was pleasantly surprised by the affordability of the rooms, considering the high standard of cleanliness and comfort. The hotel's venues, including the rooms and common areas, were impeccably maintained and exuded a sense of freshness throughout. The room I stayed in was well-appointed and provided a relaxing retreat after a day of exploration. The cleanliness of both the room and the hotel's amenities were great. I wholeheartedly recommend Regina Hotel to anyone seeking a quiet and affordable stay. With its fair prices, pristine venues, and excellent service, Regina Hotel is a top choice for travellers looking for value and quality.

First of all, the staff was fantastic!! Helpful, cheerful, friendly, accessible. The best!!!
Coffee was made outside my room every morning with cake, fruit and biscuits.
The location is lovely on the square, with nearby parking, views of the sea in the distance and close to restaurants and beach.
I’d definitely go back!!

Really nice room and kitchen. Practically new. It is in a quiet neighborhood. Easy to get there. Staff is kind and helpful. They greet us with cupcakes.
Enjoy your summer or winter vacation in one of the spacious rooms with views of the idyllic Gulf of Kissamos or the surrounding lush hillsides with olive trees and grapevines.

Guannis exceptional host that was so helful, professional, brilliant and fun! He can provide you with history that exemplifies an expert tour guide, follow any recommendations and you can't go wrong. The location is perfect for Gramvousa & Balos tour. The local port promenade has more than sufficient restaurant options & all within walking distance. (Fish Tavern...unique Greek fish soup...my #1 choice for Europe so far!).
Bus station is walking distance & less than 5 euros to Chania.
Breakfast...fantastic; especially if want greek option...kudos!
Learned all greek baked goods made with olive oil & no butter.
Taxi is 8 euros to port as not considered safe for walking (highway).

Kissamos is an excellent home base for trips to Balos and also for Elafonisi, much closer than Chania. There are also many restaurants along the beach in walking distance. We didn't swim there but it is possible. You might consider Falasarno for a few days for a beautiful beach with surf!

It’s a small town but we could enjoy walking along the beautiful beaches. There are some supermarkets so that we could get fresh vegetables and also fresh fish which were really tasty. There are a lot of buses and they are usually very on time. We could make our schedule smoothly and everything went super!

The place is very quiet and relaxing, especially during the dusk & the night where you can have your dinner in the big balcony & view all the stars in the sky, after a full day at the nearby beaches. Is a perfect location to visit west Crete, 15-20 min from the amazing Falassarna beach and 20 min from the parking place of the famous Balos beach. Also, it is less than 60 min to visit the unique Elafonisi beach.
I would definitely choose this villa again in my next visit to west Crete!

As part of exploring Crete, Kissamos is a must visit because it offers trips to some of the most beautiful site & beaches on Chania area.
2-4 night I would say its enough, but you could stay longer.

Kissamos was really chilled, laid-back, peaceful and friendly. If you're looking for a wild party scene, it's definitely not the place to come! But if you want tranquility and to feel safe whilst soaking up sun, nature, and local culture, it's perfect
Nice apartment in a good location near the main road. The apartment was a little tight for our family of 4, would be suitable for couples or families with young children. The pool was great, we spent a lot of time there. Location is very convenient for shorter drives to the beaches on the west side of the island. Excursions are offered, you should inquire before arrival so you can make reservations in advance. It is a nice quiet place to stay just minutes from Kissamos where you can go for dining or groceries.
The location was fantastic, right on the beach. There are excellent restaurants very close to the hotel together with the small village of kissamos and its various small shops (supermarket 5 mins away). One great restaurant (Mavros Molos) can even be accessed directly along the beach which feels very luxurious. The bus station was also very close making it possible to visit Chania without a car (though it's a fairly long journey by bus). The apartment was spacious and clean, staff were friendly.
- lovely hotel, in the town of Kissamos
- staff is very nice and helpful
- breakfast is amazing, seriously the best we've had so far in Crete. So many choices, savoury AND sweet. The chocolate fountain is to die for!
- only 7 min car to the port to get the cruise to Balos
- a bunch of restaurants just a few min walking, facing the sea
- bus station 6 min walk away
- there are some supermarkets very close by
- the spa in our room was very nice to use
Very clean hotel, spacious comfortable rooms with great balconies. Very Friendly and accommodating staff. We met several other people staying here and enjoyed socialising at the bar in the relaxed atmosphere. It was great to be able to walk straight out of the hotel onto the beach, and it is only a short walk from other restaurants and also the centre of Kissamos. Perfect place for people looking to completely relax.
comfortable beds, great breakfast. The best hotel on the beach for sure. The town is very cute and a 15. minute walk. Restaurants on the beach are fantastic and so close. Nice pool and pool bar.  it seems to be windy there in May. Didn’t get much beach or pool time. it was a great homebase for going to Elafonisi, Balos, Stavro and Falasarna beaches. 
very lovely setup, huge rooms, nice balcony overlooking the beach for breakfast, very quiet and serene with convenient location for parking and getting in and out Kissamos to roam around to other beaches/areas
the breakfast was really good - cretan delicacies and the regular stuff all really tasty
the staff is also very friendly and helpful
This hotel was a perfect choice for our vacation. It is very clean, very close to the beach and our host, Kostas, was incredibly helpful and also offered us a free upgrade for a small room with balcony! He gave us tips on what to do, where to eat. Everything was perfect, unfortunately we stayed only 3 night, but we would love to come back!
This is such a clean and wonderfully furnished place. A perfect oasis in the middle of rural Crete. The place is air conditioned, sound proof, and has a bathroom with a washer.
The host checked in with us daily to ensure we had everything we wanted.
The property is close to Falsarna Beach, the port of Kissamos, etc.
Luxury apartment in the new area of Kissamos where new holiday apartments are being built. The apartment was big and comfortable, with two large terraces. Very conveniently it is equipped with a washing machine and soap. An excellent base to visit places on the western parts of Crete.
We had a good stay at Balos Beach hotel. We ended up extending our one night stay to two nights as the hotel is very well placed for the activities we wanted to do on the west side of Crete. The staff were also very nice and we had an amazing view from our room on both nights!
The staff is nice. There are 2 same name hotel in Crete. Unfortunately we ended up booking 2 taxes because we were send to the wrong hotel. In the end we arrived there. The room is spacious and the building face the sea. You can enjoy sea view in the dining area. So chill.
I thoroughly recommend this warm-welcoming hotel. The staff is keen and helpful. Ideal location to explore western Crete. Set on a quiet place by the sea, many taverns on the shore and Kissamos' centre can be reached by foot. Rooms are perfectly clean. Excellent breakfast.
Location! Fairly remote, not overpopulated, yet still close to Kissamos.
Friendly staff, comfy bed, swimming across the street every day
Daily cleaning (helps with the sand you inevitably track in)
This was my second visit to this hotel and I would happily return again.
Our room was comfortable and very clean! The location was great, in front of the sea and the restaurants. People were friendly, polite and helpful! I personally recommend Stavroula Hotel Palace and I will definitely choose it again for my holidays in Kissamos!
Perfect location to visit the beautiful beaches in the western side of Crete; really great staff - everyone was extremely available to help and friendly; delicious food. I really suggest Sunny Bay hotel. I will definitely come back.
The hotel was in a strategic site so we able to reach some of the most beatiful beaches in Crete. The room had very minimal style but the bed was comfortable. It was clean.
We also had a small terrace looking at the street.
Beautiful hotel in a nice chill area, people chill and friendly, access to beach with free sun beds, nice breakfast, quiet, close to the Kissamos/Kastelli bus station. Perfect for a relaxed holiday.
This hotel exceeded all expectations! The sea view from our room was like a postcard, and the hotel's proximity to beautiful beaches was a bonus. Can't wait to return!
