The property was located at the edge of the village but close to everything and had ample parking available. The breakfast was simple but nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again

Excellent hotel, with very good taste in decoration and comfortable rooms in the heart of Paleochora. The location is great, just one step away from the restaurants and bars, but at the same time calm and quiet. The bed was super comfortable, the kitchen very well equipped, the bathroom very comfortable and clean. The communication with the properly was excellent and smooth, they are very kind and helpful with everything. We loved our stay and we would absolutely come back!

Location was excellent and staff very accommodating
I love Palaiochora - have visited several times. There is a very long sandy beach on the west side of the village - the sunbeds and umbrellas do not dominate the beach due to its size. There is a nudist area at the northern end but, sadly, it looks like the cantina there is not open this year. There is also a beach on the east side but it is stony and not to my liking. In the evening a couple of streets are closed off to traffic (but not to kids cycling at top speed through the pedestrians grrr) and the roads are occupied with tables and chairs for the various bars and cafes. There are many places to eat in the village and a wide selection of menus available. Agios bar is one to visit - definitely. If staying for more than a few days a ferry trip (40 minutes or so) to Sougia is worth trying. Gialiskari is another nice beach along the coast - about an hour's walk or 15 minutes by car.

If you are looking for a small laid back beach town in Crete, this is a greatchoice. Many of the more full service touristy options are on the north side of the island, Palaiochora is on the south. You can drive from Palaichora to Chania in less than 1.5 hours : drive to Heraklion is closer to 3.5 hours.
Plenty of beaches, good food, good people. Not really a party crowd, at least when we were there at the end of the season. There are many options for boat trips, hiking and outdoor activities. Ebikes and similar are easy to rent.

Lovely relaxed seaside town - really chill atmosphere in the evenings with lots of restaurants along the sea front and in main and back streets serving great food and generous extras (bread, olives, small desserts and raki).
We enjoyed a good balance of some hiking (Aghia Irina Gorge was lovely and very quiet), hiring a car to explore the area and a couple of days of swimming, snorkelling and reading on the beach.
I expect Paleochora is heaving n high season, but in Kate September was wonderfully laid back - a few days here and a few in Chania& Rethymno was a really nice balance.
I would stay right in the town next time - lots of small studios advertised along the road from town to harbour looked nice, quiet and close to everything

Palauochora is lovely low key resort with great food and beaches. We really like the vibe of the town which is authentic and friendly. Highly recommended for 3-4 days or longer. Really like the fact that it can be easily accessed by a very efficient bus and ferry service. We’ll definitely be back

Pretty little town with a chilled vibe but still has some action. Excellent cocktail bar in the middle of town. Amazing sunrises on one side and the most stunning sunsets on the other side.
Sandy beaches for those who like that but rocky beaches on the ither side that offer great snorkelling opportunities.
It’s spotless clean, the room is big, with super comfortable mattresses and across to the beach.
Many great restaurants and an awesome bakery just steps away. I also must point out that it’s super silent and we could sleep like angels after exploring this beautiful region.
We will definitely return to Palaiochora next season and Sifis Studios is, in my opinion, the best place to stay.
Panos, the owner, is super friendly. We felt like home.
We loved the proximity to beaches and restaurants. At the same time, the hotel is on a quiet street, which made for excellent sleeping at night. The young man at reception, we didn’t catch his name, was very hospitable and made us feel at home. he gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. we appreciated that the kitchen was set up with coffee and juice. we enjoyed the complementary raki on arrival, and in the fridge!
This is an amazing vacation spot! Maria is so kind and helpful. The villa is very comfortable and equipped with everything you might need. The privacy offered here is fantastic, while also being right on the beach and close enough to a few restaurants that you can walk to dinner. The private pool is also a huge bonus. We loved our stay here and would absolutely stay again!
Beautiful villa on a nice location with sea view. Close to the beach, restaurant and the centre of Palaiochora, but still very quiet. The property was built with high quality materials, has a very nice swimming pool and has all the comfort you need, and more! Tony is a very friendly host, and we felt very welcome. Don’t hesitate to book here, you will not regret it.
We were countless times on Crete. After several years we discovered Paleochora on a day trip. Since then we relaxed there 4 times in a row. The last 3 holidays at the Nicolas Beach. For now we don't plan to change that habit for the coming years. Wonderful place with wonderful people. Who could ask for more. Special greetings to Pantelis, Odie and the owners family.
The location is excellent, a few minutes walk to the beach and to the center of Palaiochora where all the tavernas and cafes, shopping area etc. are. Our room was exactly as in the pictures, comfortable bed and I particularly liked that our room was cool the whole day despite the heat of the summer.
It's was right in the centre of Palaiochora.Near the beach.Very close to all the restaurants.The room was cosy and very clean .You can park your car in the streets nearby.
The owner was very kind and helpful.
We stayed here for a single night only, but the room had a wonderful view right next to the beach and the staff prepared a breakfast platter to take to our own balcony and enjoy the peace and quiet.
The best hotel in Paleochora!Very friendly staff , the room's are very clean and the pool is excellent. Some steps by the beach and the centre of the town! Keep on offering such a hospitality !!!
In a central but quiet location; two minutes to the beach and all other facilities and the shops and tavernas of Palaiochora. Large, spacious apartment with a very comfortable bed.
Great location near everything Palaiochora has to offer. Very well equipped kitchen (the knives were dull though)! Clean and spacious apartment! Very helpful owner!
Small hotel in a great location. 5 min walking to center and beach. Spectacular view from every room. Easy free parking. Good breakfast and great staff.
