First of all, the staff was fantastic!! Helpful, cheerful, friendly, accessible. The best!!!
Coffee was made outside my room every morning with cake, fruit and biscuits.
The location is lovely on the square, with nearby parking, views of the sea in the distance and close to restaurants and beach.
I’d definitely go back!!

Kissamos is an excellent home base for trips to Balos and also for Elafonisi, much closer than Chania. There are also many restaurants along the beach in walking distance. We didn't swim there but it is possible. You might consider Falasarno for a few days for a beautiful beach with surf!

It’s a small town but we could enjoy walking along the beautiful beaches. There are some supermarkets so that we could get fresh vegetables and also fresh fish which were really tasty. There are a lot of buses and they are usually very on time. We could make our schedule smoothly and everything went super!

The place is very quiet and relaxing, especially during the dusk & the night where you can have your dinner in the big balcony & view all the stars in the sky, after a full day at the nearby beaches. Is a perfect location to visit west Crete, 15-20 min from the amazing Falassarna beach and 20 min from the parking place of the famous Balos beach. Also, it is less than 60 min to visit the unique Elafonisi beach.
I would definitely choose this villa again in my next visit to west Crete!

As part of exploring Crete, Kissamos is a must visit because it offers trips to some of the most beautiful site & beaches on Chania area.
2-4 night I would say its enough, but you could stay longer.

Kissamos was really chilled, laid-back, peaceful and friendly. If you're looking for a wild party scene, it's definitely not the place to come! But if you want tranquility and to feel safe whilst soaking up sun, nature, and local culture, it's perfect
I can only rate this place five stars out of five, but that won't be enough. Everything exceeded our expectations: the location, very convenient to reach the most beautiful beaches of the island, the room on the third floor with an incredible sea view, but above all the friendliness of the family that owns the hotel, who made us feel at home. If you have the chance do not miss to enjoy a romantic dinner at the restaurant, great quality food and nice service.
Kissamos and this hotel will remain among the best memories of our vacation.
Well equipped and maintaned house, a good starting point for exploring Western Crete - Balos beach, Falasarna, Elafonisos etc. 10 minutes by car to Kissamos, 40 min to Chania centre. 1 hour to Paleochora, 1h30min to Sougia.
Supermarket,.bakery, cafe, good restaurants - only 2 min drive,.or 10-15 min walk if you like. We stayed in May and it was very quiet even though an apartment is located close to the road. Good place.for a family with small children - closed area, no stairs, no swimming pool, no problem :-)
Our room was ready earlier so we could check in before our check in time. That was a pleasant surprise because we just wanted to drop of our luggage since we were too early. Very clean and big hotel room. Supernice stuff and great service. Delicious breakfastbuffet. Nice view to sea during breakfast. Very good location to get to different beaches. Plenty parking spaces on roadside. Supermarkets and restaurants nearby. Really exceptional stay. Will recommend it to everyone. I will definitely come again!
The location was fantastic, right on the beach. There are excellent restaurants very close to the hotel together with the small village of kissamos and its various small shops (supermarket 5 mins away). One great restaurant (Mavros Molos) can even be accessed directly along the beach which feels very luxurious. The bus station was also very close making it possible to visit Chania without a car (though it's a fairly long journey by bus). The apartment was spacious and clean, staff were friendly.
Great service, nice, clean rooms, delicious breakfasts. Large, deep and usually empty pool, partly shaded (which on hot days is an advantage, but can be a disadvantage in the off-season). Hotel by the seashore (separated by a small dead-end local street), Beautiful view of the entire bay, refreshing breeze on hot days and nights. Close to the taverns and the center of Kissamos. A great starting point to the beaches of western Crete (cruises to Balos for 27 EUR from the port 3 km away).
Everything. The aesthetic and design is modern 21st century, with whimsical and original touches (painted donkeys, Greek soldiers, primary colors) made even lovelier by old school Greek hospitality. The rooms are CHARMING, the hostess Konstandina is a consummate professional, and the location to three of Cretes MOST spectacular beaches Balos, Falasaarna, and Elafonisi, cannot be beat. This is my second stay and I will be back!
A great family run Hotel, very friendly and accommodating. The staff at the hotel are great.. The food is excellent the best by far when compared to any another restaurant in kissamos real Greek dishes,, with Greek portions.
Good little sandy beach that is not to busy and very safe..
It is not modern or swish and swanky which is what makes it great, clean, basic, with everything you need to relax in the sun for a few days.
Kissamos is a good town to stay to do trips around the west coast. The apartment was brand new, very well equipped and as a welcome there even was fruit, raki and a minimum for breakfast. Coffee, sugar, salt, sheets, and even an umbrella for the beach! Washing machine which was life saving! Really enjoyed the bed, too. Definitely recommend. Day trips to balos, elafonisi. My favourite was Falasarna. You need to have a car.
I stayed in Kissamos just for 1 night for Balos trip. I was greatly surprised that the hotel room I booked at the last moment, was super nice, cosy and spacious, with a nice garden view. It was fully equipped, the kitchen was the best kitchen I have seen these days, with olive oil bottle as compliment from the owner...Super nice guy! There was a fan, an iron, it even had the beach umbrella! I definitely recommend it!
i loved the customer service. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome, provide us with information to make it more convenient, and volunteered to pack up food for our beach trips. I am very grateful for the way they treated us, especially realizing that it is not always the case with exhausted hotel staff at the end of the summer season.
This hotel is in a perfect location if you like to visit falasarna, elafonisi and Balos beaches.
The town itself is small but still beautiful and cozy. It was perfect for 4 nights so we got to visit the best beaches in west Crete.
The hotel is very new, clean, rooms are comfy and has a lovely pool.
Staff are very nice and welcoming!
I recommend this place!
Such kind and helpful staff. Gave us lots of recommendations, helped book tours and taxis and generally made us feel at home. Comfy room, tasty breakfast, perfect sized pool for a relaxing dip. Great location, too. Right on the beach front and just a short stroll to restaurants. Can’t think of a better place to base yourself in Western Crete - we’ll be back!
Very friendly and welcoming staff everywhere, at the reception, at the restaurant, at the bar. Beach reserved to hotel guests. Pool available day and night. Best dakos in Kissamos. Strategic place to enjoy the beauties of the islands on the west side.
Next to many restaurants and cafe's by the water. Free parking. Very welcoming and helpful staff. Nice balcony to relax at night. We were out most of the day exploring the famous beaches on the West side of Crete, so it worked great for our needs.
Quiet location outside of Kissamos in a beautiful area full of olive trees and great restaurants closeby. Hosts are wonderful. There is a great balcony overlooking the sea. Accommodation has a kitchenette and big living room. Parking.
Just such a gorgeous hotel, very clean and comfortable, quiet and modern. Lovely staff. Great location, loved the cafe right next to the beach. Parking was very close also. Fantastic ocean view from balcony.
My stay at Regina Hotel in Kissamos was simply delightful. The location, just 700m from the beautiful Drapanias Beach, was unique for relaxation and exploration. Strongly agree to stay someone here!
Very good starting point to discover West Crete's magnificent beaches. The house was extremely comfortable and clean, nicely renovated. If you want to stay in Kissamos, Maria beach is a good option.
The desk clerk was very helpful and friendly. He recommended the best restaurants and beaches; also the best place to view the sunset. It really added to our time in Kissamos.
This hotel exceeded all expectations! The sea view from our room was like a postcard, and the hotel's proximity to beautiful beaches was a bonus. Can't wait to return!
