Matala Blue ... like the sea in the bay. Comfortable apartment, tastefully decorated and well equipped for up to 4 people to spend a vacation in the full spirit of the famous Matala. In the middle of the village, from the terrace you can enjoy the wonderful view of the blue sea, the beach and the Minoan caves, in which the children of the flowers also lived "The Hippies". The apartment is just a few steps away to enjoy the restaurants and bars of Matala. Matala is not only thrills its guests with events such as the annual Matala Street Painting, Matala Festival and beach volleyball tournaments. The place next to its beautiful flair is only 2.5 km from the wonderful endless sandy beach "Komos Beach". In our village and surroundings there are many opportunities to relax in addition to sun, beach and sea. Horse riding, hiking, fantastic car or motorcycle tours across the whole island, getting to know Minoan culture such as the Festo’s Palace. We will be happy to help you with your planning to inquire about the island ...
