Villa Venetico apparently was once a venetian tower. After numerous arson attacks in the past it was restored in the 1920s and then again by the current owners who have done an excellent job. The location is in a small village but only a few km from the main archaelogical sites in the area. John is a very attentive host.
Situated in Pómbia, 50 km from Venetian Walls and 8.3 km from Phaistos, Casa Cicala offers a garden and air conditioning.

Casa Cicala is a very comfortable house with everything you need. Very suitable for 4 adults and 2 children (the couch in the main room is a little short for tall people). Terraces all around the house so you can find shade at any time of the day. Parking in front of the house is easy, and it is great that the lamps at the gate are on from 9.30pm every night which makes it safe to drive through the gate when coming back after dark.
Location is quite good – 15 minutes to one of the beaches, but we visited at least 5 different beaches. Also, close to 2 major archeological sites, and less than 1 hour drive to Heraklion.
Communication with owner Marika was superb.
Conclusion: We would not hesitate to book Casa Cicala again, should we return to Crete.
Located 12 km from the ancient city of Phaestos, family-run Dimitris Villa Hotel is on the coast of Messara bay, surrounded by trees, just 8 minutes from Matala beach.

Lovely little property with a nice swimming pool and bar. Breakfast was offered in the morning for an additional charge. The accommodation is traditional village room type but perfectly comfortable and clean.
Dimitris, the host and owner, really makes you feel at home and makes sure that guests are comfortable and happy.
I would recommend the property for short and even longer term stays in the area.
Located in Matala, 1.4 km from Matala beach, Matala Bay Apartments provides accommodation with an infinity pool, free private parking, a garden and a bar.

Clean, well stocked apartment.
Plenty of room for another couch in the living room though.
We liked the quieter location and the pool area was fab.
Great breakfast at the main hotel.

Very good location, close enough to the main road and the next city, very close to the beach but still in a quiet area. Management is super friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean and everything is well maintained.

Breakfast not very special.
Location was quiet at night.
As families grow in size, so too do the needs of a family holiday. That’s why family hotels are set up to cater for all ages, from toddlers and kids to teens and adults. Typically, you can expect restaurants with kids’ menus, games rooms, fitness centres and a pool area where children can play and parents can relax.
It’s a great house in a beautiful and calm environment. Everything for our baby was there, a crib, a bath, a chair.
We were travelling in march which is low season so we often had a private beach:)
The host is super friendly and helpfull. We even received a really nice traditional Greek gift when we left.
Location is quiet and peaceful (at least in October), sea is few steps away from villa. Many tavernas around and one grocery store nearby. The house itself looks so nicely just like on Booking pictures. Ideal location for the families with kids.
The location was far away from the touristic masses of Crete, which was exactly what we wanted. Just next to a quiet rocky beach, great peaceful garden for bbq evenings, hammocks, nice outdoor shower. Kitchen appliances were a bit outdated, but still functioning properly. Everything was very clean. Better beaches and a supermarket a short drive away. In general, we had a great quiet family stay.
We, a family of four, had a great stay at this hotel. Everything felt new and very clean, well functioning silent aircon, good beds and great pool.
We would definitely return again.
The location is excellent. The property is a few seconds from the beach and about 2 minutes from the restaurants and local supermarket.
Having breakfast on the terrace overlooking the beach every morning was amazing. We loved it.
The beach is perfect for small children. It is safe for those that can't swim.
Spotless clean and fully equipped with everything we needed. It's great for two families traveling together although probably better for two couples with no children. Very comfortable beds.
