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!

Great experience at Polydoros. It functions more like an apartment and less like a hotel. It was the end of the season when we arrived and so we had to call/ message to be let in. It was not a problem as the staff was very responsive and if we needed anything, we could just message the staff. The room it self was spacious, clean and comfortable. There is a small kitchen and dining room as well as an outdoor patio with a partial sea view. Beds were comfortable and bedding/pillows were also good. All that you would need (plates, cups utensils) in a mini kitchen was provided; breakfast was not provided by the hotel. We chose to walk to local cafe / bakery each morning, but there is a super market nearby so that would also be an option. Everything was within 5- 7 minute walk: restaurants, bars, beach, shops, grocery store, pharmacy. Quiet neighborhood, quaint, laid back town.

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.

What a lovely place this is.
What a lovely place this is. It has lots going on in the harbour town. With a very friendly vibe. Soooo many places to eat, either on the harbour front or in the lovely little narrow streets of the town.
The town beach near the harbour is pebbles but across town is a wonderful wide stretch of beach that is lovely and sandy. It did get a bit windy and this makes the sand blow around. So use the edge near the Castel.
The ferry comes into the main harbour , so although we didn't venture that far ypu could take day trips from there. Next time we will🙂
We will revisit- its one of those places that you want to return to.
Super clean apartment (looks just like the photos) with everything we needed for cooking, washing etc in order to enjoy our five day stay in Palaiochora. Well stocked with olive oil, fruit, salt, pepper, washing powder - everything thought of and provided for.
The hosts were amazing and went above and beyond at every opportunity to make our stay memorable, including dropping us off at the bus station and allowing us to spend time with their cats! Thank you!
All View is excellent value for money and felt personal.
Overall an amazing place to stay. Hotel is just minutes walk from the beach, supermarket, and the Main Street with all the shops and restaurants. The room is very cozy and comfy, and very nicely designed. We were lucky to have a room with a balcony and nice view to the pool. Breakfast is amazing, that’s one of the things we look forward to every morning! And super friendly and helpful staff that really makes a very nice stay.
This hotel is modern, and it stands out from. the outside beside the other hotels. I really liked it, the room is very big, the bathroom very clean, the balcony is nice as well. It's near everything, and in front of the beach. The staff are very friendly, and they give the direction, their recommendation, they will answer you with all the questions you have.
PERFECT location - just steps from the beach in one direction and the charming “downtown” in the other.
rooms are immaculate, the price was more than fair, and the bed was super comfortable.
i would 100 percent stay here again & reccommend for anyone else to stay here, as well. perfect spot
We loved everything about Paleoichora and Margarita studios. Situated in a beautiful and quiet part of the village, just a few minutes from cristal clear water beach. Our studio was super clean and bed was very comfortable. The owner was very kind and helpful and made our stay extra special.
Nice room (no.4), good bed & shower, a little outside of center of Palaiochora but easy and quick to reach everything, supermarket only a couple of minutes away. Everybody was really nice and helpful, the house, garden and room is nice and very well cared for. Price / value is really good.
A very well run hotel. Excellent staff throughout. First class breakfast with lots of choice and different choices every day. Beach/Pool towels waiting in the room. Also the transfer service was excellent at the best price I could find,
Very spacious, clean and airy apartment equipped with everything someone needs, also nice toiletries provided. There is a really nice view over Palaiochora and the sea. The owners are very kind and helpful. Thank you for everything!
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.
Hotel has all the facilities you need: Wi-Fi, air conditioner, clean rooms, surprisingly they cleaned the rooms every day in our short stay, and the value of money is excellent for Palaiochora
Everything! The place is close to the beach , the owner of the hotel was amazingly helpful and friendly ! Beautiful area to explore. The room was very spacious and clean , very cool vibes!
Very nice, clean apartments in the center of the city. 3 minutes from the sandy beach, close to restaurants and a supermarket. Very hospitable hostess. Perfect for a couple.
Best breakfast in Palaiochora! We are visiting Manto for years, there is not much left to say. We like the place and always recommend to our friends! See you soon :-)
This is an excellent (new) hotel in a great location (no sea view maybe but very near the beach and with parking), spotlessly clean, stylish, with very helpful staff.
Excellent location and price. Very friendly staff. Private beach. Very quiet and close to the center, no need to drive there. Would definitely visit again.
The Aris hotel was everything you could wish for... fabulous location with wonderful ocean side stoll to shopping and restaurants... wonderful staff!!!
