We loved the view over the roof tops and the partial sea view. The staff were exceptionally friendly and indulged my attempts at Greek for which many thanks! The breakfast was pretty good. We are vegan and it can be hard to cater for us but we didn't go hungry, and we provided our own plant milk. The hotel is very central but also quiet. A wonderful place to stay.

Sitia isn't of itself pretty, but the region that surrounds it is full of treasures from Minoan sites and geological wonders through to highly trekkable gorges and ravishing views. A car is essential and exploring is well worthwhile for the smiles per mile.

Sitia is a small town, not very touristy as it's so far east. You need a car to get to Sitia and it's not an easy drive. However, it's definitely worthwhile making the effort to get there as it's a lovely town with a great beach . There are lots of excellent restaurants overlooking the sea.

If you're looking for a not too touristic, rather quiet place (of course, worth the compulsory beach bars and restaurants area), not too expensive but still nice and with friendly locals, that's your place.
Not much to see/ visit in the city itself (not to say nothing at all) and also not the side of the island with a lot of stuff but I bet if you rent a car and go to Agios Nicolaos or the villages around you'll have a great time. Some stunning views on the way too!

I cannot tell if Sitia beach is good or bad, but on the eastern side of the island 20-30 km-s away there are fantastic beaches for sure.
The view of the town from the east is wonderful.
The stairs inside the town, with cats on them are charming.
The people are kind.
I could rent a car cheap, and travel around. I have seen nice places, for example the Toplou monastery...

Cute city, lovely beaches.
Cute city, lovely beaches. Kalamia beach had great vibes, music, best Greek yogurt.
Very very very steep and narrow roads. If you're not proficient with stick shift, get automatic or don't drive. Very scary to drive.
Otherwise if you are good with walked, great Greek village. Lots of nice restaurants.
Simple.
Sitia is a beautiful place. A town with a beautiful beach and clear water. Eastern Crete is also nice, a few hours drive from Heraklion. Accommodation with sea view / beach right next to the accommodation was missing, the sea had waves /, but a few minutes away. Magnificent views of the city. To the monastery 20 minutes by car. Parking by the accommodation facility. Working wifi. Well equipped kitchen. Great choice for us. Clean and fragrant. A fig was just ripening by the terrace :-)
Excellent apartment. Everything we needed. Coffee Pot, Fridge, Toaster, Washer, TV, Hairdryer, Living Room, Kitchen and Bedroom. Unbelievable views from the bedroom! Perfect location above all restaurants on the water. Parking was great! If and when we return to Sitia we hope this apartment will still be available! We had a vehicle however everything we needed after returning from our day of exploring was in walking distance! Even a mini market across the street!
The host was amazing & very accommodating! After a mistake which was made by booking.com, we waited outside for 2 hours, but I must say it was worth the wait. Alexis has a beautiful home freshly renovated with a modern touch. Exceptional bathroom with top quality fixtures and appliances to match. Very comfortable and quite spacious in a central location to everything. We loved our time in Sitia & thank Alexis for his wonderful efforts.
Beautiful suite in the heart of sitia,close to everything including great beach and busy atmospheric harbour. I highly recommend you stay here if you are exploring the east coast we received a true Cretan welcome the hosts were great,much more than we expected. The suite has all you need,all modern cons and more,the best we have been to in Crete in 12 years,built with real pride
Very nice apartment, clean, very well equipped and comfortable for couple of nights in Sitia. Easy communication with the owner. Located about 10 mins walk down to the harbour with many good restaurants, bars and all the town centre. Free parking is possible on the street so that is a big plus! Would happily stay again.
The hotel is great and we felt very comfortable even though the facilities are bit older. The stuff is kind and helpful. The beach is clean and nice although the entrance to the sea is not very comfortable because of a bigger pebbles. Hotel is providing towels for a beach that can be changed in the hotel’s spa.
Different Buffet every day of the week. Friendly staff that also cared about gluten free food and showed what is save to eat and what not.
Seaside and town easily accessiable by foot.
Hotel has many rooms but still fits into the surroundings very good. No big hotel bunker.
A very cosy and hospitable place to stop in Sitia! Conveniently located to explore the eastern part of Crete and its attractions.
The main is the amazing area with the pool and the magnificent garden.
The room is cosy and spacious for the family.
Great peaceful location close to restaurants etc. with balcony and sea view from room, perfect base for exploring western Crete, excellent panoramic views of sea and mountains from the roof terrace, would recommend without hesitation
We stayed during the off-season so it was quiet, parking was available, the room was clean, spacious and comfortable. We extended our stay so that we could explore the area more. We would certainly stay at this hotel again.
the apartment was clean, bright, and had a lovely view. the kitchen was well stocked, and Manos was very responsive. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to other Sitia travelers.
This is the best room in the hotel, the location is great, the view excellent, clean and cozy.
And everyone was so polite, natural and accomodating that we really felt like we are home!
Thank you!
Very good staff on the reception. Thank you for the taxi early in the morning.
Big room on the backsite of the hotel with nice view on the town.
Close to the very nice beach and the restaurants.
Ageras breakfast was amazing. Location was walkable to downtown Sitia and the beach. Would stay again and again here! Kitchen and fridge were great as well for cooking.
We spend a few days in this wonderful hotel wish we could have stayed longer. Dmitri and his family were so kind and helpful. Always there to greet you with a smile.
Location excellent in a quiet part of Sitia and with easy reach of various other places of interest. The bed was really comfortable. Ellie, our host is wonderful.
Very well equiped and designed house.
Totally lives up to all the photos and description.
Really enjoyed our stay and would go back when next in Crete.
