The property was located at the edge of the village but close to everything and had ample parking available. The breakfast was simple but nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again

Excellent hotel, with very good taste in decoration and comfortable rooms in the heart of Paleochora. The location is great, just one step away from the restaurants and bars, but at the same time calm and quiet. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen very well equipped, the bathroom very comfortable and clean. The communication with the properly was excellent and smooth, they are very kind and helpful with everything. We loved our stay and we would absolutely come back!

A very beautiful place, very quiet and easy with kids. The swimming pool is lovely, with a small pool for young kids and steps to enter, a lot of green around it and even toys for the children to play around the pool. Our room was next to the pool so it was very easy to come and go from the room to the pool, we could even park our car right next to it. Two different bedrooms so kids stayed upstairs, an extra bed was made so all 3 kids could be accomodated wich was very nice and comfortable. Lovely hostess, willing to answer any questions.

Location was perfect. Cross the road for beach 2 mins.
Walk to food or supermarket easily. And anywhere in town.
Nice garden area between house and road. Off road parking.
Maria is very nice and helpful. And loves the cats 🐈 that live in the garden.
Comfy bed. Good bathroom and shower.
The Kitchen is very basic. But nice. No hob or pans, which is a shame. There is Just an oven. So not easy to cook.
Lots of restaurants to visit.
The bakery is 3 min walk away too.
Great mountain views from garden.

If you are looking for a small laid back beach town in Crete...
If you are looking for a small laid back beach town in Crete, this is a greatchoice. Many of the more full service touristy options are on the north side of the island, Palaiochora is on the south. You can drive from Palaichora to Chania in less than 1.5 hours : drive to Heraklion is closer to 3.5 hours.
Plenty of beaches, good food, good people. Not really a party crowd, at least when we were there at the end of the season. There are many options for boat trips, hiking and outdoor activities. Ebikes and similar are easy to rent.

Lovely relaxed seaside town - really chill atmosphere in the evenings with lots of restaurants along the sea front and in main and back streets serving great food and generous extras (bread, olives, small desserts and raki).
We enjoyed a good balance of some hiking (Aghia Irina Gorge was lovely and very quiet), hiring a car to explore the area and a couple of days of swimming, snorkelling and reading on the beach.
I expect Paleochora is heaving n high season, but in Kate September was wonderfully laid back - a few days here and a few in Chania& Rethymno was a really nice balance.
I would stay right in the town next time - lots of small studios advertised along the road from town to harbour looked nice, quiet and close to everything

Palauochora is lovely low key resort with great food and beaches. We really like the vibe of the town which is authentic and friendly. Highly recommended for 3-4 days or longer. Really like the fact that it can be easily accessed by a very efficient bus and ferry service. We’ll definitely be back

Pretty little town with a chilled vibe but still has some action. Excellent cocktail bar in the middle of town. Amazing sunrises on one side and the most stunning sunsets on the other side.
Sandy beaches for those who like that but rocky beaches on the ither side that offer great snorkelling opportunities.

What a lovely place this is.
What a lovely place this is. It has lots going on in the harbour town. With a very friendly vibe. Soooo many places to eat, either on the harbour front or in the lovely little narrow streets of the town.
The town beach near the harbour is pebbles but across town is a wonderful wide stretch of beach that is lovely and sandy. It did get a bit windy and this makes the sand blow around. So use the edge near the Castel.
The ferry comes into the main harbour , so although we didn't venture that far ypu could take day trips from there. Next time we will🙂
We will revisit- its one of those places that you want to return to.
Sifis Studios & Paleohora are the perfect base for a holiday in the beautiful West of Crete! The location of Sifis is right in front of the beach, around the corner of Paleohora's nightlife and perfect for tours to Loutro, Elfafonissi, Samaria Gorge... Panos and his sister who manage Sifis are very friendly and made us feel very welcome. They have cooperations f.e. for the beach, so you don't have to pay extra for a beach chair and a restaurant, so you can get a great price for a breakfast menu.
The location is perfect to reach the old town, the beach and to be quickly out of town. We always found a parking spot nearby. Room is very clean, has a big balcony with a very nice view towards the mountains and nice sunset.
Good and big breakfast with everything usual, fresh fruit and fresh orange juice, terrace is in the shade which is nice in the morning. Staff/Owners are very friendly and helpful. They had a lot of amnesties at your disposal in the bathroom.
We loved everything about Paleoichora and Margarita studios. Situated in a beautiful and quiet part of the village, just a few minutes from cristal clear water beach. Our studio was super clean and bed was very comfortable. The owner was very kind and helpful and made our stay extra special.
Love the location by the beach and by Paleochora. The room itself was great and had a drying rack. The hosts even found me a bucket so I could wash clothes in the shower. They also helped me verify that my ferry wasn't cancelled. So nice! Wish I could have stayed longer.
A very well run hotel. Excellent staff throughout. First class breakfast with lots of choice and different choices every day. Beach/Pool towels waiting in the room. Also the transfer service was excellent at the best price I could find,
The whole team was so nice and friendly.
The location is 2 min from the beach and so many nice restaurants are near by.
Would definitely recommend Palaiochora and this accommondation if you are looking for a relaxing vacation!
Oh my goodness! Just a few yards from a pebbly beach. Keep in mind that little kids prefer the sandy beach, so this beach is peaceful! The rooms are fairly large, modern, and clean. The AC is great. Price can't be beat.
Wonderful proprietor and staff. Comfortable, spacious, clean, well-designed, modern, small apartment.
Ample parking. Quiet. Very close to the beach, grocery stores, restaurants, and a nice bakery.
Beautiful room in excellent position across from the beach. The bed was so comfortable and the shower room was a delight. A lovely, contemporary hotel. Stelios was welcoming and very helpful.
Everything! The place is close to the beach , the owner of the hotel was amazingly helpful and friendly ! Beautiful area to explore. The room was very spacious and clean , very cool vibes!
The location is fantastic to enjoy the beach and get easy access to the center of Palaiochora. The owner was friendly and easily accessible. The property was comfortable and clean.
