Samaria by the Sea

Gigilos

"Estaba en este hotel muy acogedor y amistoso durante 3 noches. Mi habitación estaba lista tan pronto como llegó en el ferry de la mañana de Loutro. El uso de camas solares para los huéspedes del hotel fue un gran bonus, como el maravilloso restaurante y el personal siempre útil. El hotel está muy bien situado, y el hotel está muy bien situado."

Livikon by the Sea

"First of all, we booked our room from hotels and it said we were getting tge suite which was a bit bigger, but when we got there we were told that all room sizes are the same basically. So if you are planning to book here, book the cheapest option you get. If you are going by car and you will put in the GPS Livikon by the sea as we did, you will not get any results. Better write: from Samaria to Livikon. It will take you there to Chora Sfakion. When you get there there is no entrance directly to the hotel because it's on the beach in front of restaurants only for pedestrians. You should park at the Square and the guy from the reception will give you a card so you can have free parking or else they have one or two spots you can park behind the hotel if they are available. Every room is Sea view, the beds are comfortable, the shower has good pressure and it's big enough. Not big, but big enough. There is shower gel in shower and a small fridge in the main area. We had an issue with the air condition but they immediately took care of it and changed our room. It was good that we had air-condition in both rooms since we were three people (other places in Crete have only one air condition for the bedroom and main area of the apartment). There is no elevator to the rooms. The rooms are located above some restaurants, patisserie,  mini market,  so we had everything we needed on our feet. We were treated with refreshments upon arrival which was nice of the lovely lady at the reception. There is a boat nearby (booked with Deligiannis boats-you pay on the boat) that took us to Loutro which I looooved! I said that next time I would book at least a night to stay at Loutro and enjoy the calmness it offers! In general I would book Livikon again! "

VENTUS Luxury Suites

"Perfect location in this corner of heaven. From check in to check out the service was amazing. The room was lovely, comfy bed, kitchen and awesome shower. Don’t use the hot tub but with a beach on the doorstep why would you!"

Sfakian Horizon

"We had a wonderful stay in hotel sfakian horizon. Breakfasts were excellent, rooms exceptionally clean and modern with walk in shower and very friendly staff. We thought it was an idillic spot but guests would need to manage hills and steps. We enjoyed all the local walks and gorges for walking, easily accessed by water taxis or local buses. The local bars and restaurants were 5 mins away and also a bakery, pharmacy and harbour. Would definitely recommend if you prefer an authentic experience that hasn't lost its greek charm and hospitality."

Sweet Corner Masxali

"The place is real nice. The owners know what Cretan hospitality is. Away from the noisy tourist village of Agia roumeli. The food are made with the old way and the view of the Libyan sea are the best … thanks ….bellow you can find sea beds and canoe did free .."

Fata Morgana Studios & Apartments

"We had a lovely stay at Fata Morgana Studios and Apartments. The apartment was spacious, clean, and beautifully designed, offering stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere – truly perfect for a relaxing holiday. It’s important to note that having a car is essential, as the property is a bit remote and there are no shops or services within walking distance. The nearby beach is absolutely breathtaking – crystal-clear water and unspoiled natural beauty. However, it has no facilities, so be prepared: there are no sunbeds, umbrellas, toilets, or restaurants. If you’re looking for a quiet, scenic getaway and don’t mind being a little off the beaten path, this place is a hidden gem. We truly enjoyed our stay!"

Daskalogiannis Hotel

"We stayed there for 3 nights in June of 2025 . We loved the room, great AC, view was spectacular and the breakfast was maid to order. The location and customer service were excellent. Luturo was the perfect getaway and I hope to come back to this idilic hotel again in the future!"

John Akroyiali

"The hôtel is horrible, the rooms are dirty and unconfortable, the ladies at réception were smoking near my window although I told them that I have a health problem they ignored me and they were very rude to me, horrible expérience I advice not to go to this place"
