Matala Dimitris Villas and Hotel

Matala Dimitris Villas and Hotel is a family-run property situated on the coast of Messara bay, surrounded by trees. Located on Matala Main Road, it offers a calm setting just an eight-minute walk from the beach and close to local shops and restaurants. This 3-star hotel may suit families looking for a practical base near the ancient city of Phaestos.

Families with children will find a shallow kids pool designed specifically for younger guests to enjoy safely. For parents needing some time to themselves, a babysitting service is available for eligible age ranges, though this is an extra charge. The hotel can also arrange various island excursions, hiking, and horseback riding activities, with car and bike rentals available for an additional fee.

Guestrooms are bright and air-conditioned, with free internet access provided in both rooms and public areas. Breakfast and traditional Cretan lunches can be enjoyed in the garden tavern near the outdoor pool. An airport shuttle service is available upon request for the 55 km journey to Heraklion Airport. Please note that some amenities are available upon request and may incur an extra charge, so it is worth checking with the hotel before booking.
