Great room, great breakfast, free parking, and great staff. We met people that return year after year. That in itself says it all.
Located 328 feet away from Grammeno beach, Megim offers free transportation around the area and free sun beds and umbrellas on the beach.

We liked the fact it was away from the main town and within walking distance to Grammeno Beach which is sandy. The local beach is just a few minutes walk away across the road with a lovely cafe/ staff but it's pebble beach but also beautiful.The water is crystal clear.
The breakfast was generous and wonderful and the two ladies who did the breakfast and cleaned our rooms we're so lovely.
The garden is beautiful. People took the breakfast out on a tray and sat under the vine. I enjoyed watching the goats on the rocks behind the house.
There are quite a few restaurants to eat in nearby within walking distance if you didn't fancy driving into Paleochora town including one in the campsite which is nearby.
Casbah Boutique Hotel provides rooms with free WiFi in Palaiochora, conveniently located a 4-minute walk from Pachia Ammos and 600 yards from Halikia Beach.

The place is beautiful, designed and finished to a really high standard. The bed was super comfy, and all the staff that I met were really friendly and accommodating. I love the little touches, like some olive oil, washing up liquid and kitchen roll given to me which meant that I didn't have to buy these items - always an issue of waste when travelling for a short time if you want to cook.
I loved my time here and will definitely be back!

Arrived early but they couldn’t have been any nicer getting us into our room. Came back after an hour walking about to find our room ready and our luggage in the room! This was still much earlier than check in time. The room (rooms!) we’re great! Only needing a single room for one night it was a whole apartment! Large master, kitchen with dining area, and a smaller bedroom all over looking the ocean! The hotel is directly on the beach. Beach bar next door although couldn’t hear them at night. Staff could not have been more helpful. Family run, mom, son and uncle. Wasn’t sure if we would be able to ferry out in the morning because of weather and they said to come back and they would have a room for us. Would definitely go back! Sorry we only had one night there!

In the center of Palaiochora, in Crete, 165 ft from Votsala Beach, Glaros offers rooms with free Wi-Fi and a balcony overlooking the gardens. Breakfast is served under a bougainvillea-covered trellis.
nice place, good breakfast. great value for money.
I love Palaiochora - have visited several times. There is a very long sandy beach on the west side of the village - the sunbeds and umbrellas do not dominate the beach due to its size. There is a nudist area at the northern end but, sadly, it looks like the cantina there is not open this year. There is also a beach on the east side but it is stony and not to my liking. In the evening a couple of streets are closed off to traffic (but not to kids cycling at top speed through the pedestrians grrr) and the roads are occupied with tables and chairs for the various bars and cafes. There are many places to eat in the village and a wide selection of menus available. Agios bar is one to visit - definitely. If staying for more than a few days a ferry trip (40 minutes or so) to Sougia is worth trying. Gialiskari is another nice beach along the coast - about an hour's walk or 15 minutes by car.

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.
Absolutely beautiful! New hotel / suites which are every bit as good as implied by the pictures. Rooms are very thoughtfully appointed and had everything we needed. Very satisfying shower, excellent air con.
Perfect location - a one minute walk to the beach and a few minutes to the main street and a wide selection of restaurants and shops.
Amalia was great in helping us with travel advice and suggestions. Wishing them every success with this new venture!
We already had a booking for 2 weeks in Rethymno and went to Palaiochóra to see friends for a night. We wanted something easy and inexpensive. Niki Rooms were perfect. The room was a great size with a balcony and was clean and comfortable. It was a few minutes walk to the beach and to the main are for restaurants and bars. Olivia (Hostess) was super sweet and kind. I also loved the communal kitchen. Last point.... we drove there and it was easy to park
I was very please to be met with such a hospitable, friendly owner. Stelios did a great job building this place. First - it is next to the beach. Second, the bathrooms are ample and spacious, and thirdly, the bed is super comfortable. We slept great. There are real black out curtains- allowing you to sleep in if you want . Stelios is a talented and pleasant man who gives you great value for money
Wonderful place and the best hosts in Crete. The studio was clean, the AC worked great, and housekeeping was done daily. It's located close to a supermarket, a sandy beach and a bakery. It's also a very short walk away from the center. The host was very polite and careful to all our needs. We stayed there for two weeks and it was one of the best holidays, we will definitely come here again.
The villas are out of this world, both in location and comfort. The walk down the Anidri Canyon to the beach is incredible, and coming back up is a very efficient work out! Everything is immaculate and super functional in the property, the terrasse at night is perfect for star gazing. You need a car to get form and to the property, a 10 minutes drive in the mountains from Paleochora.
Small comfortable unpretentious hotel right opposite the sandy beach. Room had all the usual amenities and good wifi. Excellent and plentiful breakfast. Helpful staff. Private parking. Five minutes walk across the main street to the other side of the peninsula with pebbly beach, ferries, and most of the restaurants on the ‘promenade’.
😊The hotel is brand new and very stylish; the rooms have been decorated with value materials and furniture of high quality. The housekeeping was excellent. We loved it, to sit on the balcony and enjoying the view from to the beach.
The owner is very friendly and helpful. If we come back to Paleochora we will try to stay here again.
An excellent space with a modern, very attractive design. Large room with all comforts and any needed facilities. Located in the centre of Palaiochora, just 3 miniutes from everything (beaches, taverns, bars, supermarket, etc.). Despite located in the centre of Palaiochora, it was very quiet.
Excellent room service. Very clean room.
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.
near to an amazing town centre, and just a few
miles to a
beautiful beach with plenty of tree shade
if required. Good choice of hotel with
parking for a few cars. Would definitely
stay there again.
The location is perfect, clean, modern, comfortable and with an amazing view. The staff is super, Maria gave us the right advices for eating and best beaches to visit.
This is an excellent (new) hotel in a great location (no sea view maybe but very near the beach and with parking), spotlessly clean, stylish, with very helpful staff.
Very goog breakfasts, very clean, we had in the room everything we needed. Quiete beach just 100m from the hotel with free umbrellas and very good bar.
Small hotel in a great location. 5 min walking to center and beach. Spectacular view from every room. Easy free parking. Good breakfast and great staff.
The property is well located , close to the pebble beach and many excellent tavernas with easily accessible parking. Great spot for exploring the area.
