“Amazing Matala!!!!”
+Everything, bed was comfortable 2 balconies and access to a roof terrace. Fridge was stocked by the host. It was great from start to finish, seconds from the beach, watching the sun set on the balcony, very clean. Will definitely stay here again on our return to Matala.
−Everything was great. It is in the centre of Matala so you will hear noise late into the night but we didn't find this an issue at all, but if you are early sleepers it may be a consideration.

“The best stay in Matala : )”
+I loved staying at this beautiful apartment in Matala! It was perfect for a solo-traveller. While the apartment itself is a small studio, there are 2 balconies, as well as a huge upstairs balcony! I loved being able to go upstairs at night to watch the sunset and look at the stars. You can also watch the sunset from inside the apartment, which was a real treat. The hostess, Angela, is the sweetest person, and I am so grateful I was able to meet her.
−Everything was perfect !!!

“Wonderful stay! Good for the soul!”
+Everything. Angela was really sweet and welcoming. Made me feel right at home. Her going-away gift to me was so sweet and touching. The room was so warm and welcoming, tastefully decorated. It looks just like the pictures. The bed was comfortable and I enjoyed the use of all 3 balconies. My favorite was the one on the 3rd floor with views of the caves. I slept out there almost the entire day just to listen to the waves and look at the caves. I appreciated the fridge filled with snacks and drinks when I arrived. There were plenty of plugs for your electronics. She also offered me lunch from her restaurant, and it was delicious. I wish I could've stayed longer as I was sad I had to leave. Angela's place will be my go-to whenever I plan to visit Matala. Thank you Angela for your kindness and hospitality.
−Nothing. But just a recommendation to have a shower curtain. I always felt bad that water was getting splashed on the floor around the toilet.

“Exceptional”
+This place is truly exceptional. The apartment is fabulous with two balconies, one looking out over the sea to the rocky sand stone outcrops and caves and the other looking down onto the market square. It is light, bright, fully updated and comfortable. A highlight is meeting Angela the owner who is the epitome of Cretan hospitality. She provided all we needed for breakfast, cheese, bread, tomatoes, cucumbers, honey, marmalade, tea and coffee and when we asked about milk she insisted on running out to buy us fresh milk. This place will remain as one of the most memorable places in which we have stayed in decades of traveling.

+The apartment was perfect - newly renovated, clean and with an incredible view of the beach and caves from the private balcony. Angela was very friendly, kind and helpful, recommending restaurants, answering questions and helping us find a car park. Definitely recommend this gem in the centre of the town square!

“Best choice in Matala”
+We had an absolutely wonderful time at Flores Playa! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the kindest hosts, Angela and her son, who made us feel like family. Angela's warmth and hospitality were unmatched, and her son's helpfulness was greatly appreciated. One of the highlights of our stay was the fully stocked fridge, brimming with fresh groceries that made our mornings delightful. It was such a thoughtful touch that made us feel right at home. The accommodation itself was spectacular. The stunning rooftop terrace offered breathtaking views and became our favorite spot to unwind in the evenings. Additionally, the two beautiful balconies provided perfect spaces to relax and enjoy the serene surroundings. Below the apartment is their family-run restaurant, which serves the best Pita Gyros we've ever tasted. Each meal was a culinary delight and added to the overall fantastic experience. The location of Flores Playa is unbeatable, situated right in the center of Matala and just a stone's throw away from the beach. We enjoyed leisurely strolls and refreshing swims every day, with everything we needed within walking distance. The local area is charming and offered plenty of
