"I made a reservation via Expedia on January 19. We've paid for the room. Today we came to the hotel, on March 27, after 24 hours of traveling there from home in USA. Manager of the property told us she doesn't have a reservation from Expedia. Moreover we've got a confirmation from VRBO and owner of this particular studio i had reserved via Expedia and paid said that he does not know anything about us. We are using Expedia service for years and now we are in different country without place to...

"We stayed at Villa Manika at the beginning of July and had a wonderful time. The villa is a short drive to Sitia with shops, a beautiful harbour and lots of cafes and restaurants. We had a hire car but got a taxi a few times in the evening which was 8 Euros each way. The villa was very spacious, clean and well equipped, we also liked that it was laid out on one level. The pool was beautiful, it was a great size and the water temperature was perfect. Upon making our reservation Despina and...

"For my wife and me, this trip was a sort of honeymoon since we had just gotten married a month ago. After a year and a half of challenges and a super busy life, we were eager to disconnect from the entire world, relax and recharge at Natura Cottages. I'm happy to say that our experience exceeded our expectations, we couldn't be more satisfied with our stay. The cottage was exactly as pictured, and we instantly fell in love with the place. It’s evident that the owners of Natura Cottages love...

"Exo Mouliana is a little village away from the usual tourist route but lays on the main road so it’s easy to get to places. Other villages we visited would have a winding narrow road you have to navigate for half an hour just to get to the main road. This place is very conveniently located however the house itself is high on the hill so you don’t hear the road or the noise from the centre of the village. In fact it was quiet and peaceful at night and not hot at all thanks to the light night...

"Our holiday in the Villa met all our high expectations. The Villa has superb accommodation and outside areas and facilities. The Management Company looked after a couple of issues which arose, including loss of hot water, very quickly. Makry Gialos is a fantastic and authentic resort, away from the tourist hot spots. So nice, I fear its secret will be out soon and it will grow and lose some of its charm. I recommend you get to it now! Martyn, Shirley & family. "

The kitchen has plenty of equipment and a large Fridge/freezer. Super bathroom with a washing machine, and all the powder/conditioner needed to enable us to wash most of our clothes before we left. The views from the massive balconies was stunning. Being riggt in the town centre you can walk to loads of cafes &...

"A very unusual and quirky place to stay, it has been converted to a comfortable holiday home on a number of levels ( so you need to have full mobility). Our host was very warm and welcoming and we had some very interesting conversations. the beds were very comfortable , the kitchen was well equipped too. It was a peaceful location set in beautiful gardens off the main road but it was very easy to visit the next village of Palekastro for shopping and eating in the tavernas. Not far into Siteia if...

"A lovely house for a relaxing holiday. No road noise, lovely views (mountains, sea, sunset). Many beaches within easy reach, with decent main roads. Makri Gialos was better than we expected for shopping, with a butcher and fruit & vegetable shop in addition to the mini markets (which sell most essentials) and cafes for treats. Nice restaurants such as Dragon's Cave, Diaskari, Kami, several along by the harbour and more all along the coast. Also Roman and Minoan ruins to add a bit of culture. The...

"Very disappointing stay. This photos show a pleasant hotel with sea views. What we had was a view of the sea with a very ugly old half built building obscuring the view. The receptionist was surly, abrupt and generally unpleasant. No welcoming smile, I felt like we were a burden. The room was full of mosquitos. The bed was a bit like sleeping on a blanket covered rock and only 2 pillows. Breakfast the first morning... my husband is a diabetic and is not able to eat any of the cakes and...

"A lovely property overlooking Makrigialos Bay! Balcony was perfect for breakfasts, lunches and family time after our evening meal in a wide variety of tavernas across the area. The pool is perfect for a gentle swim or family games and the enclosed jacuzzi at one end added to the relaxing experience. Eleni, our host, could not have been more helpful. She provided a fabulous welcome package and detailed information about the area. Through chatting with her we were able to choose a variety of...
