Agia Galini hotels

Pros: Very kind host, Maria welcomed me and my father warmly, and it was a pleasure to discuss with her. The rooms were very clean, modern, with a nice view. And the breakfast in the morning was great. A big thanks for your kindness! Frédéric

Pros: Comfortable modern rooms, charming and helpful owners. Perfect breakfast available. 10 min walk to selection of resturants. Great choice if you wish to stay in Agia Galini.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Maria is a wonderful host. Breakfasts are excellent and great value. Everything is kept spotlessly clean. There are some excellent tavernas to choose from.

Cons: Without a car the climb to and from Antigoni becomes a chore if required several times a day.

Pros: The location was lovely and very central, a short walk to the harbour restaurants. Our room had a sea view! There was parking in and around the hotel. Maria and her family were very affectionate and helpful. A joy. There is a wonderful restaurant across the road too (Apanema)

Cons: I found the room a bit small for the price but the location and staff made up for it.

Cons: We are waiting our money from reservation 14 days!

Pros: Friendly helpful staff!

Cons: Room to small and too far from the town.

Pros: Host, room, bathroom, seaview, little garden and ornaments, ample parking

Cons: Steep hill!!!

Pros: Excellent location, five minutes from the sea. Great stuff, so polite and generous, welcomed us beautifully and explained all we needed to know.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A small, clean, quiet family-run hotel in Agia Galini, a short scenic walk from the beach and little fishing port below. Close to path leading to walks over headlands. Cleaned daily.

Cons: No pool or restaurant, but we didn't want one. A rather steep walk for the really unfit, but we didn't mind.

Pros: Nice clean basic room. Linen changed every 3 days, very polite & friendly owners.

Cons: Breakfast, although adequate, became a bit boring after several days, but for the price paid,one could not expect too much.

Pros: The owner is very friendly. The rooms were clean and had specific look. For example in our kitchen on the wall there were beautiful, colorful and fresh flowers, like in teh spring.

Cons: Everything was superb

Pros: Quiet hotel in the village with nice rooms and nice staff

Pros: Excellent service!

Cons: None!

Pros: Clean and proper hotel with adequate correspondence between value and price.

Cons: Would not stay for many nights unless I have a car as it is quite distant from the beach. Read the instructions on how to find it carefully. The sign is very small.

Pros: the views from the hotel room onto the se and the mountains as well and of course for this money you will never find anything better

Cons:

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff Fabulous breakfast buffet Sea view from the room was great

Cons: Everything was great

Pros: Family owned business. The owner was super friendly, immediately giving us tips and recommendations for the lovely town the property is in. The room had a bay view over the neighboring roof. Breakfast was a wider spread than the minimal continental, price was fair, although we did not take advantage of it. The location is nice, about 10-15 minutes away from the town center. Parking was available right in from of the property.

Cons: The rooms had an air freshener, sparing every 10-15 minutes, to hide a distant smoky odor theat stuck to the room. Turning it off and opening the windows for a while was the better solution for us.

Pros: The owner was lovely. Very helpful and friendly. Everything was spotlessly clean. Excellent location.

Pros: Really comfortable bed and bathroom. Great view.

Cons: Everything was great

Pros: The Seaview, the balcony, ..really perfect to relax. Very clean. A nice stay in a nice village.

Pros: Family run business, the owners are very very welcoming and nice, full of good tips. Breakfast is full of homemade food, fresh every day. Location is very good as well. Location is very good, quiet, and walking distance to an infinity of restaurants (ask owner for recommendations). Unless you're on a tighter budget, try to book a room with the sea view, it is spectacular. 100% recommendable!

Cons: WiFi connection in the rooms is very poor - borderline non-existent. But then again, it's called holidays ;)

Pros: I liked everything at avra. The host was delightful and made the best breakfast ever! The room was very clear and cozy with a small yet nice balcony. The bed was very comfortable. Everything is close (super market, cafes and the beach of course!).

Pros: Very nice, comfortable and super clean little hotel, with spacious rooms. Breakfast upon request offered a huge selection to satisfy everyone (vegetarian and vegan options also available). We traveled along with our dog and he was really welcome at the premises. We definitely recommend it. Also excellent value for money.

Pros: Great hotel, very clean, great facilities, great choice at breakfast, lots of options and food prepared in front of us

Cons: Air conditioning wasn’t working properly in our first room but hotel staff gave us an upgrade to a chill room which was very nice. Hotel mainly geared up to the needs of German people.

Pros: an outstanding and beautiful place with super friendly personell from the reception to the cleaning.

Cons: the only very minor point is, that breakfast already stops at 10.00h

Pros: Lovely hotel. Peaceful in the evening. Nice staff and good food. Caters mainly for German tourists but no language problems and the reception staff speak very good English. Agia Galini is a pretty village too. We stayed in a 'chill room' which was clean and roomy with a hammock in the garden. We had room 506, at the end of the building with a larger garden.

Cons: The beach is sandy but the sea floor is very stony so not good for playing in the water. I didn't want to drive so intended to book some excursions but there weren't any available from the hotel or the village however that didn't end up as a problem as we enjoyed the hotel facilities.

Pros: Great staff, nice location, new facilities

Pros: Location is OK. The town of Agia Galini is a bit like a ghost town. The beach is OK but not fantastic - you need a car in Crete. Breakfast is very good.

Cons: The bathroom

Pros: The view, the quiet, the pool and friendly staff

Cons: Everything perfect

Pros: Great location and a friendly family run hotel. Excellent views from the hillside down towards Agia Galini.

Pros: Very friendly staff, Views amazing, very clean

Pros: The suite was beautiful, we were in 305 which is one of their bridal suites. Pools fantastic, very quiet, we added breakfast for 2 days. We liked it so much we stayed on an extra day. Very close to town of Agia Galini. Superb 4 days there, looking forward to returning to Lenikos

Cons: There was nothing we didn't like, it exceeded our expectations.

Pros: The view! Easy parking, nice kitchen, comfy beds.

Cons: Not very ecological: changed towels every day (even if clean) - should use the principle that other hotels use: dirty towel on the floor= please change; towel hanging = please keep. They also used plenty of water to wash stairs every day (even if clean and places where not much used). This is Creta, an island where, in July, I believe, water is a luxury.

Pros: Everything else was great. The view, and quite nature, the stuff were fine too.

Cons: Stairs for young kids. As we have 1,5 years and 3 years some plastic glasses and plates would be helpful.

Pros: EVERYTHING!!!

Cons: It's a very romantic place, beautiful apartments fully equipped with all you may need!! Breakfast not possible to eat, so much and delicious!! Best choice of this year!

Pros: Very nice Lady running the hotel. Nice view from the balcony / terrace. Great breakfast. Would come back.

Pros: Awesome place, very nice and welcoming owner. Traditional and authentic homemade breakfast with a stunning view over the City, habour and the sea

Pros: Super clean and very well maintained. Best spot/hotel in Agia Galini, not only because of the location (on a hill, overlooking the harbor and the gulf) but also because of the flowers/greenery. Small details like the ochre colour of the building and the discrete lighting, make it unique. Nice, adequate breakfast, varied daily. The rooms are serviced daily, it makes a difference in the summer. Quite efficient wi-fi. Host friendly and accommodating and well versed in the hotel business.

Cons: There were very few immaterial nuances, like water pressure, hot/cold water in the shower (we got either hot or cold, mixing was not possible), or the dim light when shaving, but no deal breakers really, at least not in the summer.

Pros: Homemade breakfast changes every morning and is soooo good. The design and the smells make this place very unique. The guest is absolutely lovely, such a nice and caring woman. The room is beautiful and the view on the bay is stunning ! Hippy vibes of peace love and serenity. We won't forget this place !! Thank you for everything !

Cons: Everything in this place is perfect !!

Pros: Amazing view!!!! Great breakfast with traditional products. Very comfortable rooms and clean.

Pros: we arrived very late at night. the keys were left for us with good instructions on where our room was. the room was a pleasant surprise. the space was large and clean, the bathroom was recently redone and the view from our room was fantastic.

Cons: we chose this location for the price and the availability of the sea view room. Considering the view and what we paid it was exceptional value for the money.

Pros: Beautiful view over Agia Galini, more like a home than a Hotel , Great breakfast and Most Important very friendly owner! They all make the stays so wonderful and Special. Efcharisto Eleni and Vanessa

Pros: The hostess. The view. The breakfast

Pros: The view was beautiful, the host Eleni was friendly and approachable. The breakfast was more than adequate, with fresh bread and a variety of home baked goods. There is a laid back feel about the hotel, very relaxed.

Cons: The hill, and steps, down to the beach and town, however, you get the beautiful views, and you do get used to it if you are reasonably fit. We are mid sixty, and early 70s, and we managed.

Pros: Breakfast was super

Pros: Excellent, served in a nice courtyard by very nice manager Aris.

Pros: Great little hotel. Beautiful sea view from the window. Friendly owner. Delicious breakfast. We had something different every day. The rooms were comfortable with good wi-fi. The location was perfect too.

Cons: Nothing, All was perfect.

Pros: The breakfast at the garden was really great. We had something different every day, made on the spot by Aris, who happens to be a processional cook. The hotel is run by him and his lovely partner Marina. Both obliged in every way possible and made our stay look like we stayed at some friends. We also liked the balconies. Ours looked at the road and it was really big.

Cons: It's not a five star boutique hotel, but that you do know before getting there. Nevertheless, a modern renovation could really made a great difference, though that would have a toll at the price. If there would be something I could change, that would be the mattress. Maybe.

Pros: I had very pleasant time there. Clean room with sea view. I also enjoyed tradicion Greek brekfast. Everything nice and with smile.

Pros: Great breakfast with homemade marmalades, fried eggs, pancake, fresh juice and a charming personal touch - best enjoyed outside in the relaxing courtyard. Very friendly and welcoming couple running the hotel. Bit dated rooms but with comfortable bed, A/C, hot shower, fridge and nice views. We never had trouble finding parking right in front of the hotel.

Pros: Lovely family run hotel. The owners, Aris and Marina were so welcoming and hospitable. Lots of nice food for breakfast. The rooms were comfortable with good wi-fi and aircon. The location was perfect too. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this hotel.

Pros: Very friendly and quiet place. The owners are very nice and helpful. Location is perfect and room always clean. And of course, breakfasts are amazing.

Pros: Lovely family run hotel ... superb home cooked breakfasts which were varied daily. A beautiful hostess who ensured every guest felt valued. Thanks Kate, Demos & Nikos Perfect 5 day break.

Pros: Everything about Astoria was wonderful. Kate and her family and Anna were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We felt like family. The room was spotless and well proportioned and serviced every day. The view from our good sized balcony was amazing. Breakfast was a meal to look forward to every day. Kate’s mum cooked all the special sweet treats and there was a wonderful selection of items. Eggs meats cheeses, pastry, cereal, yoghurt, honey, jams, fresh bread and much more. A car and driver (Demos) were available for day trips to other villages at very reasonable cost. We would highly recommend you choose this home away from home. Thank you Kate for making our time In Agia Galini a memorable 50th wedding anniversary celebration.

Pros: Lovely bed & great breakfast. View of mountains from balcony beautiful. Very nice people.easy to park hire car outside hotel.

Cons: No kettle in the room

Pros: Nice rooms, frendly staff

Pros: The breakfast was really good. Clearly the hotel made an extra effort here. We lived on ground floor so stepping out was really convenient. We could also park our car just in front of the hotel, but during peak season it would have been hard - this was in October.

Cons: From the map it was impossible to learn that the hotel was 70 vertical meters up from the beach. It looked like a few easy steps to the beach. But on the other hand parking down by the sea would have been next to impossible.

Pros: A fabulous welcome from Kate and her staff with a drink and cheesecake. The breakfast was fresh and homemade. Will be returning next time in Agia Galini.

Pros: Good value basic small hotel. Clean room and fairly good continental breakfast. Ideal location for the restaurants and shops of this small charming town. Friendly German manager. Was able to park free right outside hotel. Glad we stayed port side of town rather than beach side as far more restaurants and shops near the port.

Cons: Not very good views as bigger buildings accross the road block out most of the sea view. Steep paths and steps down to to centre of village/town. Would probably select a hotel with a better view if visit village again.

Pros: Room well furnished with characteristic elements. Beautiful little terrace. Direction very kind and helpful. Good breakfast.

Pros: wonderful owners/staff. Good breakfast. Nice room. Relaxing location!

Pros: Super service, very nice family hotel. The owners will make your holidays more pleasant by their Greek hospitality. Thank you.

Pros: Wonderful place makes you feel like family, lovely breakfast, pleasant courtyard with flowers.

Cons: Nothing- prefer double bed over two twins but otherwise pleasant stay!

Pros: The welcome was wonderful - it really made our holiday. Thank you!

Pros: Everything

Pros: Super clean room, good breakfast

Pros: The hotel is conveniently sited, old and extended village easily accessible, parking not difficult, biggish breakfast - kitchen not seen but cooked O.K. for unusually generous breakfast, nice room with balcony that got afternoon shade, decent plumbing not needing lavatory paper to be deposited in a bin. It does only breakfast, but there is a choice of tavernas within easy striking distance during the season.

A homemade breakfast (something different) everyday, served in the garden, very tasty! The location was super, close to the beach and the town.

Loads of restaurants on the beach. Stochos is the best but there is a fantastic restaurant on the campsite (Kipos) A short walk to the charming town and more good restaurants.

Pros: Absolutely stunning view from the room terrace. Huge rooms and terrace. Great infrastructure, just a few steps from supermarket, many nice tavernas and the beach (5 EUR per day for sunbed set). Good swimming pool, also with great view. Good WiFi.

Cons: We did not take the breakfast because prices listed for the options were quite high, 6.50 for yogurt with fruits and honey, for instance.

Pros: The room is very spacious and the view was great. The aircon worked very well and there was plenty of hot water for the shower. The place was very clean, too. The location was very convenient for access to Phaistos, Matala, and Plakias. There is a supermarket just below the hotel and plenty of good restaurants.

Cons: The sheets were thin and "pill-y" and the mattress too firm for our tastes. There was no bath soap. Luckily I had my own.

Pros: Functional hotel in a small town on the south central coast of Crete. Easy on-site parking, and many beachfront restaurants nearby.

Cons: Hotel is showing its age. Hotel is built into a hillside at a steep angle. Have to carry luggage up 30-35 steps before reaching main level where elevator service begins.

Pros: The hotel was clean and quiet, they have a lift for lift pushchairs/wheelchairs inside the hotel. Decent range of snacks on the menu available all day, very relaxed owners. The family room was enormous so plenty of room for 4 people plus suitcases etc.

Pros: We loved our first room which had a huge balcony looking down towards the sea. We spent our evenings sitting outside star gazing and enjoying the peace and tranquility of the place. All the staff are helpful and pleasant.

Cons: I didnt realise that a flexible room meant we would be moved for the last night of our stay. I wish someone had gone to the new room beforehand as it smelt of dampness and we had no Wifi in there. Overall the place and our hosts were super.

Pros: We loved everything about it. We will definitely come back.

Cons: It's a 20 minute walk to the beach but.... it is a lovely walk past lots of shops, cafes and restaurants.

Pros: This hotel is ina good position at the top of the village,in a quiet position with good parking,but only a couple of minutes walk from the shops and restaurants.

Cons: The wall lights over the bed are in the wY so you bash your head on them

Pros: Very clean property, friendly staff

Cons: Breakfast was poor

Pros: Villa Maxine is conveniently located near the main road, before Agia Galini. This is very helpful if you're planning on finding an easy spot to park and use Agia Galini as your base to explore nearby areas. It's in walking distance from the sea side, the restaurants and bars. Its surroundings are completely quiet! The complex and the rooms appear to have been recently remodeled and we found the mattresses to be very comfortable. Rooms were also very spacious. The common areas look very inviting to enjoy and relax. The breakfast was basic but OK. The price was very good for high season and we found the negative reviews to be somehow deceptive for this hotel.

Cons: Lack of wifi in combination with poor cell data coverage make it hard to access the internet from the room.

Pros: Nice view.

Cons: The room wasn't cosy at all, with basic furiture. The room was smelly and noisy. The dinning room for breakfast was very crowded, the juice was terrible.
