Good hotel for family with young children as lovely swimming pools and on the beach. Guests mainly from Scandinavian countries- quiet and friendly.

It also has an international mix of customers (mainly German, Danish, British, US and Greek), which we liked. The food is OK, but dont expect high cusine. It is listed... more

If you are looking for a quiet beach holiday in a town that still has some authentic Cretian feel, than this is the place for you. If you want to go clubbing every night then it isn't. Lovely long beach, although it's sandier and the water is warmer near the harbour. Choose one of the many recliners in front of... more
