Stayed at Porto Loutro (on the beach) twice this year. Went in June and liked it so much that we went back in September. Loutro is lovely - friendly and restful, with some nice walks nearby. The accomodation was spotless, the staff friendly, and Alison, the owner, made us feel very welcome.

Planning our trip to Greece, sent email to Porto Loutro 3 times no response. Callers a Greek travel agent and tried to arrange a booking, travel agent tried an no response. Finally call the hotel and they took my name and said no problem. Seeing how this is a small village and didn't want to be stuck without a hotel... More

Maybe this title is harsh : after all our two week holiday in SW Crete in June did not come up to expectations in total. Starting with a week in Paleochora where it was too windy (and too hot but that was to be expected) our second week in Loutro did not come up to expectations either. It could have... More

We stayed three nights at the Porto Loutro II Hotel in Loutro, Crete. We couldn't have been happier with our choice. The hotel is directly above the dock for the ferry, so it was just steps away. We had a swift check in and were in awe of the view from our room. The hotel sits just above the town... More

I was impressed with this fabulous little place. I liked its simpleness and getting to quietly know other holiday makers. The Greek hospitality has impressed me immensely for the 3-4 weeks we've travelled around. The brother and sister team at the hotel on the hill where we stayed appeared to be selective in whom they cast their attention to. To... More

We stayed at the Lourto Hotel (on the hill) for 3 nights. Our room No 1 had a balcony with a side view of the sea and was a good simple hotel in a fantastic location. There were obviously a lot of people who return each year which can make it feel a bit like a club that you are... More

Second visit to the hotel on the hill and we enjoyed it just as much. Loutro is a perfect place to relax - small village,no traffic, clear blue sea, pleasant bars and restaurants. The hotel has comfortable, ensuite rooms with balconies overlooking the stunning bay. Sofia and other staff are delightful -really helpful, friendly and pleasant. It's not surprising that... More

A good Cretan friend recommended the tiny resort of Loutro in Southern Crete and the Hotel Porto Loutro specifically when I asked for advice on a great beach destination in Chania. The advice was perfect. The resort village of Loutro, accessible only by sea or over a demanding hiking trail, is tucked into a small and very protected bay just... More

Just returned from a lovely trip to Greece and a great stay at the Hotel Porto Loutro on the hill. What a gem! Not only is the place lovely -- set up on the hill overlooking a beautiful bay, with an inviting covered deck where you can dream the hours away -- but the staff is so welcoming. We were... More
