We visited in mid October and the hotel was quiet, very comfortable and the staff were attentive and helpful. We paid extra for a room overlooking the sea and it came with a small balcony which was well worthwhile.
Breakfast was amazing. It was served in a lovely beach side restaurant and included yogurt & fruit, a cooked breakfast, pastries, fresh orange juice and coffee.
This hotel was a highlight of our holiday. Thank you!

Andreas is a very nice guy and it did not change over the years. You can ask him whatever you need to know about Agia Roumeli, he knows everything. You are planning hikes, boat trips, whatever, he can help you. If you only want to swim or lay on the beach, no need to ask is just in front of you ;-)
The restaurant overlooks the port and the sea, it is very nice place to chill out and the food is very good as well. Enjoy?

The host family are so wonderful and the room was lovely with a gorgeous little balcony looking at the fabulous mountains and blue skies. Fridge and hairdryer. Wardrobe with hangers. At night the stars are bright and the village is quiet. I loved staying there. Highly recommended.

Wonderful peaceful location with the most welcoming, helpful and gracious hosts, Athenia and Eva. Thank-you.
We feel very fortunate to have stayed in your comfortable and spacious studio apartment for a whole week.
The beds were oh so comfortable!
Excellent location for all the walking and exploring we did.
Lovely stony beach nearby with crystal clear waters.
We hope to return one day. It really was a little bit of heaven!
We also ate twice at Artimis restaurant and it was one of our favourite places to eat out of all the restaurants in Agia Roumeli.
Well done to this lovely family who are working hard to give those who venture to this remote and rugged place, such a wonderful time.

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.
Possibly the only truly family tavern in Agia Roumeli. The best part - they got rooms!
I enjoyed a delicious meal, and a sensory experience that I dreamed of for years. The silence and calmness of the evening complemented the aromas of the fresh dishes, served near the beach, at one of their few tables, the view from the room terrace. The attention and discretion of the restaurant owner, Mr. Nectarios, who offered me as a gift two small bottles - one with olive oil and one with brandy. Thank you very much!
My dad and I spent a week travelling around Crete and this was the best place we stayed. The host was super friendly and made us feel so welcome. The accommodation was perfect for us to relax in between adventures and we especially liked having coffee on the balcony overlooking the sea. Agia Roumeli is a very cute town surrounded by stunning scenery and has some beautiful walks. Can't recommend this place enough!
The bed is very comfortable, I’ve never seen such a clean hotel, and the staff is very accommodating. Everything was so relaxed, and the only bad thing I have to say is why no one told me that I should come for longer ;) We also had dinner and breakfast at the hotel’s restaurant and it was very fresh and delicious, there’s really no reason to go anywhere else. Also, the view from the rooms is simply priceless!
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.
I don't normally write reviews but this place was idyllic. 5-minute walk out of town completely surrounded by nature with a private beach below. Very friendly staff and excellent food. Room (actually there were two rooms plus bathroom) was enormous with a balcony overlooking the sea. Very peaceful at night with just the sound of the sea.
They even drove me to the ferry with my suitcase.
It’s right at the beach, in the center of town, beautiful taverna, cafe and guest house covered in vines and so welcoming. The room was big and perfect for our family of 4 adults (could have been 5) with a balcony and view of the water. the owner Nikos was so helpful and friendly and the dinner and breakfast were authentic Greek and delicious with lots of variety. Was hard to leave!
The room was very clean and comfortable. We had a big balcony and a nice and clean bathroom. Tap water is fantastic quality. The owner was very helpful and friendly. She let us leave some of our luggage at the house after checking out. House is located in a small side street, very quiet at night. Would definitely stay there again when in Agia Roumeli.
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.
The staff, Sofia, George and Filio were so welcoming, attentive and accommodating. Just lovely people and we will return when we go back to Crete. Location and area are stunning. Free use of the water bikes and kayaks were also awesome and they even offered to let me borrow a fishing rod and snorkels. Went out of their way.
The host is extremely kind and helpful, always there to answer requests. He's also taking care of the restaurant and each time he was checking if we're satisfied. The location is very good, just 1-2 minutes from the ferry and from the beach. The apartment was clean, well-equipped even with a hairdryer and tampoons.
This property is a gem. The view from the room and terrace is exceptional. comfortable bed and big room. The hostess, Anna, was very friendly and helpful. We wanted to leave earlier than breakfast started to go to Samaria Gorge and she kindly put together a picnic for us. I wish we could have stayed longer.
I’ve never been so well taken care of by a hotel in my life. The staff contacted us on our hike there and guided us to help us avoid heatstroke, checking in along the way. After arriving later than expected, dehydrated and overheated, we were given water and care and guidance for over an hour. Just exceptional.
The staff was friendly and the small village of Agia Roumeli is fantastic for a quiet stopover. It is also very convenient that the rooms have a supermarket dowstairs so you can easily buy anything that you may require for your stay.
The hotel is located 50m next to the ferry pear, staff is very friendly and helpful (we could leave our luggage till return from Samaria gorge), the hotel is newly renovated, you should try the food at the restaurant
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!
Probably our favourite hotel on our stay in Crete the location is key .Staff were very good to interact with and everything worked perfectly in the room
