Sfakian Horizon ★★

📍 Eparchiaki Odos Vrison-Sfakion 6, Sfakia

"Perfect Accommodation. Wonderful food. Very happy and helpful staff. Great position I stayed here with our swim group with the Big Blue Swim from the 8th till 15th June. Had an amazing week Started every morning with tasty breakfast round the pool and went to bed in air conditioned comfort every night. Sad to leave"

Gigilos ★★★

📍 Sfakia -Chania, Agia Roumeli

"Stayed for 3 nights in this very friendly welcoming hotel. My room was ready as soon as I arrived on the morning ferry from Loutro. The use of sunbeds for hotel guests was a great bonus as was the wonderful restaurant and ever helpful staff. On my last day my ferry didn't leave till 17.30 and I was allowed to keep my room till then at no extra charge. Absolutely wonderful genuine people I will definitely stay again."

Fata Morgana Studios & Apartments ★★★

📍 Ορθή Αμμος, Fragkokastello, Sfakia

"We stayed here for two weeks. The location is excellent, right above Orthi Ammos beach and in the centre of an olive grove. Our reception was warm and friendly and we had no issues whatever during our stay. The apartment was very clean and everything worked properly including the air conditioning, ceiling fan, Wi-Fi and TV. There was plenty of hot water and the shower pressure was good. The large bed was comfortable and sleep quality was high; we slept with the patio doors open every night. There are good fly screens on every window: we had no issues with mosquitos. There was adequate tableware and enough kitchen equipment to prepare simple meals - we made breakfast and lunch ourselves and had dinner out most days. Basically, an excellent self-catering apartment. There is a useful supermarket about 1 km away which, though tiny, carries all the stock we could possibly have needed. Fata Morgana loans sun umbrellas and beach towels which was very helpful. Take some string to tie the umbrellas to stones if the wind is strong. Our apartment was on the ground floor and had a small balcony with table and chairs. It felt very private. The rooms have all been recently refurbished and upgraded; the design of our room was very good, with lots of matching curtains and sunblinds. A car is essential here. The route through the mountains from Chania is not as difficult as it would appear from a map. The beach is sandy and shelves very gently so swimming, or playing in the water, felt very safe. Access is via a sand dune that becomes really hot, so bring suitable footwear. However, when the strong meltemi or etesian wind blows the beach can be uncomfortable - as with all Greek islands in the Aegean. We definitely recommend Fata Morgana. "

Sweet Corner Masxali
9.0 (10 reviews)

Sweet Corner Masxali ★★★

📍 Agia Roumeli, Sfakia

"Nice remote apartments, located 600m from the Agia Roumeli village centre. With nice beach and offering free sunbeds. The free kayaks where also a plus though they were pretty old. The apartments were relatively spacious with amazing view. The balconies were nice though the chairs are not comfortable. The restaurant served breakfast and lunch/dinner. Prefer fish or cooked food rather than meat. It's a bit far from the village centre but the village itself doesn't have a lot to offer after all. If you are very tired after crossing the Samaria Gorge, prefer to stay somewhere closer to the coffee center or prefer Loutro area for more nightlife options. Last, the apartments offer air conditioning in one room while the other has a fan which is VERY noisy. Not convenient for the night. A ceiling fan with low speed/noise would have been better."

VENTUS Luxury Suites ★★★

📍 Chora Sfakion 0, Sfakia

"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!"

Livikon by the Sea
9.0 (48 reviews)

Livikon by the Sea ★★★

📍 Sfakia, Sfakia

"Easily the most wonderful place to stay in Chora Sfakion. We spent the 4 weeks of April in this charming, unpretentious and beautiful hotel, run by the most hospitable owners, who were constantly helpful and generous with their attention to our every need and expert advice on the whole area. We felt part of their family within a short time. The hotel rooms are spotless and kept that way, and every room opens to a balcony looking over the sea. Each night one is lulled to sleep with the sound of the waves on the shore and by day, there are endless places of historical interest and extreme beauty to enjoy. We swam every day in the pristine sea, either at the beach right there or one nearby. The hotel also has a taverna which serves delicious food from breakfast to dinner. We cannot recommend this place highly enough and were very sad to leave."

Sfakian Horizon ★★
"Horizons is a series of rooms and two roomed apartments at the very back of Chora Sfakion: excellent for view but a hard walk down to the main village. We had a two roomed apartment. Ghastly bathroom: small shower area - hand-held shower- stickty shower curtain. One doublebed bedroom with TV, very poor lighting but with access to private balcony: another room with a poorly fitted (cheap?) kitchen area, some ill-made upright chairs ( the backs were not fitted correctly), one day bed and a TV. Breakfast was a buffet with coffee /tera. orange juice (good), four sorts of bread (fresh) cereals, fresh melon, yoghurt, honey and orange jam, spanokopita or tiropita, cucumberm olives, tomato, little apple turnovers, rizogala, and hard boiled eggs, hot scrambled eggs and hot bacon. Well presented. We paid 90 euros cash per night for the two of us to use an apartment and have breakfast. not bad value for money. The snag for us was that to get to a room you needed to walk down stairs. These are Cretan stairs: no handrail and there was no overwhelming willingness to help with our bags. (I am elderly and find stairs very difficult). However while there was no offer to help us load our car when we left, no praise could be too hogh for the ladies who cleaned our apartment daily. Excellent service"

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!"

Sweet Corner Masxali ★★★
"The main problem with this hotel is that they don't refund canceled reservations. They're willing to ruin their professional reputation and lose customers, but if you've already paid them, they don't want to give you your money back. I'd sue them, but I live in Europe. For Russian tourists, this is an insurmountable problem. So avoid this hotel with its supposedly cheap prices. They're simply reselling rooms for the same dates to different customers."

Kallicrates Village ★★★
"Loved staying here for 9 nights. Room is spacious and clean, bed comfortable, plenty of storage. Privacy good. Breakfast and pool bar is open all the time and very helpful, nice food. Location is good for Frangokastello, walking to restaurants and bars. Good parking and it feels like a very safe place, it has a nice vibe. The owner and family are very helpful in all respects (provided a kettle when asked). The pool is lovely with plenty of shade, also clean. Can't wait to stay again."
