Located 22 km from Botanical Park & Gardens of Crete, Mike Omalos Houses offers accommodation with a patio, as well as free bikes and a garden. The air-conditioned accommodation is 5.1 km from Samaria Gorge, and guests can benefit from private parking available on site and free WiFi. Guests can make use of the picnic area or the barbecue, or enjoy views of the lake and garden.

We had a great two-night stay here. Mike met us and welcomed us warmly. He's super-friendly ... I wish we had more time to chat with him! Omalos is a peaceful, sleepy town, and the houses are a a short drive away, making them even more peaceful. It's also a short drive to get to the trailhead for Samaria Gorge / Mount Gigilos. It's very rural here, making it very charming without a trace of touristiness. There were sheep flocks all around ... happy sounds of bells and bahs made it a magical stop on our vacation :-).

Offering a restaurant, the stone-built To Exari is located in Omalos Village. It features heated accommodation with views over the White Mountains. The popular Samaria Gorge can be reached within a short drive.

It's a family-run hotel that caters to travellers wanting to hike Samaria Gorge (or do anything else in Omalos), with free transfers to the entrance of it. The coaches from Chania and elsewhere stop right outside this hotel (so long you tell the driver you're wanting to alight at Exari hotel). The hosts were such lovely and kind people, every single one of them - they make sure your stay is perfect - I mean which hosts gives you lifts, serves you wine, raki, desserts, fruits, etc. throughout your stay? The rooms were absolutely CLEAN and very affordable. It has a restaurant which serves the most delicious Cretan food - they have vineyards, plantations, and farms - so, you're getting farm-to-table food. You won't regret it!

Situated just 3 km from the famous Samaria Gorge, To Ellinikon is built amongst lush greenery and features a traditional Cretan restaurant. Rooms feature a private balcony overlooking the White Mountains.

Reading some of the Google reviews made me a bit nervous about staying here - but really, some of you just need to get out more. At this price point, I challenge you to find a better budget stay anywhere on the island. We actually really liked the "hard" beds as described by a few others - the firm mattresses gave us the best night's sleep in ages, so I guess that's a matter of preference. There may have been one tiny mould stain on the shower tiles, but overall the room was spotless, perfectly spacious for two people, and opened onto an agricultural/mountain view and the tinkling of goat bells. The owner and staff were friendly and helpful, and he happily drove us to the Samaria Gorge starting point in the morning. In a nutshell, this ticks the boxes for a hiking base or overnight stop, and we'd use it again when in the area.

    Perfect location, friendly staff and all you need is available. Also the communication with the owner before we arrived was really good. This is a basic accomodation, but cheap and it is perfect if you are all day outside. I loved the atmosphere this place has. I would go back here for sure if I visit Crete again!

    Staff were very welcoming on arrival and we very much enjoyed our stay. The rooms were well equipped and comfortable, and the attached restaurant served a good standard of food. The location is ideal for doing both the Samaria Gorge and Irini Gorge walks.

    Booked this budget hotel in the mountains, and the only one appearing on Booking. The hotel is located in a small and quiet village and belongs to a family which produces goat cheese. Built in a very old building, but very well maintained and comfortable. It was very clean, and the Cretan breakfast was excellent. We parked our car behind the room and benfitted from the back door making it easy to bring our belongings in.

    The location is ideal if you are going to or returning from the gorge. It is also a nice drive up the mountain to reach the place. There were three members of staff. The lady and (I assume) her husband who dealt with check-in and the kitchen were very friendly.
