I don't normally write reviews but this place was idyllic. 5-minute walk out of town completely surrounded by nature with a private beach below. Very friendly staff and excellent food. Room (actually there were two rooms plus bathroom) was enormous with a balcony overlooking the sea. Very peaceful at night with just the sound of the sea.
They even drove me to the ferry with my suitcase.
Leaving!

Excellent séjour, très bon accueil, un appartement magnifique. Nous recommandons vivement !
Cuisine du restaurant un peu décevant (poisson frais frit)

Nous avons beaucoup aimé le lieu, la proximité de la mer et des montagnes, le calme, ainsi que nos hôtes. Nous avons aimé la cuisine proposée dans l'établissement, les conseils et les attentions de nos hôtes.
Les équipements du coin cuisine pourraient être améliorés (cuisinière, bouilloire).

Fabulous location, balcony overlooking the bay. Fabulous home cooked food.
Bathroom quite small and only hand wash provided ('free toiletries' advertised so didn't take shampoo etc).

Ihan hyvä perinteinen aamiainen.
Aivan parasta tuo merinäköala ja "privaatti" hiekkaranta heti vieressä. Kylähän on suojaisessa lahdessa vuorten ympäröimä. Vain etelästä puhaltavat lämpimät tuulet sinne osuvat. Varmaan Kreetan parhaat kelit.
Riuhdottiin Samarian rotko alas ja jätettiin auto ylös. Piti päivä vain palautella ja sitten takaisin mutta pakko oli ottaa lisäpäivä tuossa "lintukodossa" nauttimiseen. Reppujen kanssa Samaria ylös oli kyllä haastava, yli 6 tunnin urakka.. Vaikka kylä on pieni ja rauhallinen niin iltapäivisin on turistivirtaa niin paljon että ravintolatarjontaa on ylenpalttisesti.
Kunto olisi voinut olla siihen rotkoon parempi.. Enemmän jalkalenkkiä mäkisessä maastossa suosittelen!

The location is amazing! A very cozy quiet place, this is my third time coming here. The room has everything you need for a comfortable stay, the view from the balcony is stunning. You can sit on the balcony for a long time, drink wine, listen to the sound of the surf and watch the stars. The light from the oil lamp creates a romantic atmosphere :)
A very beautiful beach with few people, which is undoubtedly a plus. The hotel provides sunbeds, umbrellas, kayaks and a catamaran free of charge.
The tavern serves excellent food, and the tsatsiki are worthy of special admiration. I tried a lot of different fresh fish and every time it was cooked amazingly, my favorite was the red lion fish. It looked just as great on a plate as it did in the sea. The kitchen also offered homemade delicacies, such as bureki and dolma. At the end of the meal, the hosts always give a compliment - raki with sweets.
Many thanks to the owners and staff for their kindness and care.

Highly recommend!
We stayed at the accommodation after the Samaria Gorge and we wished to be able to stay longer. The place is secluded, very quiet and clean. You get free sun beds and beach towels as well. The owners are super friendly and helpful and the food at the restaurant was 10/10!

Tolle Lage direkt am Strand abseits von Massentourismus. Unglaublich nette Gastgeberfamilie: hat uns von der Fähre abgeholt, wieder zur Fähre gebracht, zum Schluchteingang gefahren ( war sehr heiß), leckeres Abendessen mit Meerblick serviert. Kajaks stehen zur Erkundung der Bucht zur Verfügung. Wir haben unsere 2 Tage dort genossen.
Die Einrichtung recht einfach, war aber für uns und für den Preis voll ok.

La vue
Nous louons des appartements avec booking depuis plus de 10 ans a raison de plus d'une centaine d'hôtels loués. Cest la première fois que nous sommes déçus à ce point surtout en Créte. Mauvaise communication la chambre qui est actuellement à 41 euros pour 3 personnes nous a été facturé 10 euros de plus à payé en cash sur place, nous avions payé via booking la totalité de notre séjour soit 85 euros pour 2 nuits. On nous réclame en arrivant de payer 20 euros de plus. La propreté des chambres et du matériel cassé laisse à désirer. Cette établissement ne loue pas l'appartement que nous avions réservé 2 chambres. Mais une pièce de vie avec 1 lit et 1chambre. Les propriétaires le jour de notre départ annonce à booking un no show en stipulant que nous devons être facturés de frais d'annulation pour non présentation à notre réservation. Pour que nous ne puissions pas laisser de commentaires. C'est vraiment pas très honnête tout cela... franchement à fuir.. toiles d'araignée sur les lampes, branchement fils électriques avec du Scotch, pied du lavabo cassé, dangereux avec enfant en bas âge. Climatisation qui tient avec de la ficelle ventilateur inutilisable car poussiéreux. Placards de la cuisine très sales. Bouilloire inutilisable car stockée avec une lampe à pétrole. Enfin pour moins cher sur Agia Roumeli il y a d'autres hôtels beaucoup mieux. Nous ne reviendrons pas et ne recommandons pas cet établissement. Nous vous recommandons Pachnes où Faragi taverne qui sont eux fantastiques.

Die Familie, die das Hotel führt, ist extrem hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das war wirklich eine Freude!
Das Essen war für den Preis absolut gut.
Auch die Zimmer - immer unter Anbetracht des Preis-Leistung-Verhältnisses einwandfrei.
Die Lage ist toll. Ausserhalb und weg vom Touristentrubel mit eigenem kl. Strandabschnitt.
Dort gab es für uns kostenlos Kayaks und Trettbotte.
Gerade die Kayaktour war ein Highlight!
Wir waren für einen kurzen Aufenthalt dort um die Schlucht vor dem Ansturm der Massen zu sehen. Das hat perfekt funktioniert.
Die Schlucht hat uns enttäuscht, der Aufenthalt im Hotel positiv überrascht.
Absolute Empfehlung!
Wir hatten schon saubere Unterkünfte auch wenn es völlig in Ordnung war!

Words can't do justice to this place. One of the most beautiful spots on earth, with a pleasant short walk to the village and only 40 minutes walk to Southern entrance to Samaria gorge. Lovely hosts, very basic but clean & comfortable rooms, amazing views from balcony, and last but not least the best food I have had in Crete.
Everything was great

La vue exceptionnelle
Le calme
La propreté du logement, de la salle de bains et des draps étaient très passables.
La climatisation ne fonctionne que dans une seule pièce (l'espace de séjour), l'autre pièce (la chambre) n'a qu'un ventilateur.

Loved that it was away from the main village, the room was spacious and comfortable and the balcony faced the sea, it was simple but very nice. Loved that it had access to a little cove right in front. All the staff were kind and helpful,
Nothing!

Beautiful location, the starry skies were amazing.
One of the hosts seemed a little reluctant and took some warming up. The food was OK, not brilliant, it was a shame as the location is so beautiful so much more can be made of this hotel but we enjoyed our 1 night there as the view was amazing

Nice and quiet. Beautiful viiews. A beach that is not crowded. The friendly owners and staff. The food was really good, and an exceptional moussaka..
The lights on the road between the hotel and the village were too bright, in a place like Agia Roumeli which otherwise is one of the darkest places in Europe which would be perfect for seeing the stars and the Milky way. But this is really not something that the hotel can do about, just worth mentioning. Some of the sunbeds were broken.

Location was stunning with an amazing view right outside your window! Warm, welcoming Greek family & staff & amazing homecooked Greek food. Beach in front of property with free sun beds ,umbrellas, kayak, canoes & pedaloos! Pure relaxation, 'Greek family style'. Thank you "Sweet Corner", from the bottom of our hearts.
Nothing...but with no fault of the owners...prepare well for Mosquitos! Also, possibly not suitable for those with significant mobility issues as all accommodation is upstairs and access to the beach is from a height.

Location and views
4.0
The location was outstanding. Away from the main tourist spaces. Magnificent sea and mountain views from the tree-covered terrace, and very close to a small uncrowded beach. But perhaps best of all were the hosts/staff. The owner Yiorgos was exceptional - kind, generous and deeply human - but the whole team made one feel entirely at home. Sun-loungers and umbrellas provided (for free) on the beach was a big plus.
The small individual balcony had a sea view but was too hot to sit on (at least in the height of summer). Having an umbrella there might have helped.

Very quite place with nice beach and free kayaks. The apartment is very basic but nice and has a great view. The hosts are really nice and welcoming, taking care for everything you need. The food in the restaurant is delicious. Great atmosphere.

We have loved everything, from the warm welcome of our guests to the amazing view of the sea, from the hearty meals of the taverna to the the incomparable peace and quiet.
We left a piece of our heart there.

I stayed here with my son after walking down the Samaria gorge from Omalos and before walking on along the E4 path. The place is a few hundred metres west of the town. As others have mentioned you're away from the gorge crowds (which actually disappear when the boat goes, making Agia Roumelli a very quiet, pleasant little town). We only stayed one night, although I wish we'd stayed longer. The staff were very friendly, the food good. We got a triple room which was very generously proportioned and had cooking facilities. There's a beach very close by. If I ever become fugitive from justice, this might be where you'll find me.

Nice view of the sea, and quiet beach.
The room smelled of bleach in the beginning and then it washed out and a bad smell of wet dog was coming from the first room of the apartment. I also did not like that they automatically charged us with 9 euros more than prince on booking.
