The beds weren’t really comfortable, the room is really just 1 small room, with all the beds in the same room, a bit small.

Very nice stay, the owner is amazing and very helpful! The room was very clean and the pool was excellent!

Even it was stated, there is a kitchen corner, it was not easy to cook. Only one oven had worked and there was not enough baking dish and enough fork, knife, spoon, glasses (only the number of the family from everything) . Renovation would be necessary in that appartment, where we stayed. . Even with this disadvantage the cost-benefit ratio was good of the place and we would stay there....

The owner is very helpful. It was very good, that after every day we could go to the pool and swim cool down. Bed matress were comfortambe. There was air conditioning, but it was not necessary to use since the orientation of the appartment and the good wind from the sea. Perfekt cleaning was on every day.

No windows or a/c in the room. Fan will be great option for those kinds of rooms.

Great hospitality and location.

Nothing really. I found it a a bit difficault to get to and from, but from the week I have stayed here in Crete so far, that is normal for the Cretan road system. You have to have you A-game on while driving here.

Medausa Villa consists of a couple of adjoining houses and a very nice swimming pool / sunbathing area. It´s in a very quiet neighbourhood a short walk from old town Hersonissos (not be comfused with the party town down on the beach. If you wantto go to the beach is´s a short drive or a 35-45 minutes hike on foot. But why bother when you have a sweet pool and can chose between sunbenches!) In old town Hersonissos there are many nice reataurants and the vibe is to die for. The suites, while not luxorious, are very comfortable, each with a little semi-private outdoors area witb a table and some chairs and couches,

Hard to say something I didn't like about this place apart from saying goodbyes.

Room size was perfect with a nice view of the sea. The manager was very helpful. It's a short walk to the old town village for a meal. And a downhill walk to the main beach. Highly recommended.

We hate to say it but the host / owner was nasty and showed anything but hospitality. We showed up with kids. He was upset, bitter, impolite. Definitely not the kind of attitude that families want to meet during their summer vacation. We paid for 2 rooms and packed and left after one night, without looking back.

Nice on paper. Not that much in reality.

I wish I was told that the tap water was salty, I would have brought more minerals with me.

Great location beautiful rooms and the owner was super nice.

The biggest issue was the host’s behavior. From the beginning, he was unfriendly, avoided answering simple questions. Later, he accused my 9-year-old son of urinating outside our door, with no proof, and spoke to me in an aggressive tone. I tried to explain that other guests had used the table outside our room before, but he didn’t want to listen. Instead, he said, “I’m the boss here,” and threatened to kick us out if something like that “happens again.” I’m a father traveling with a child — such behavior, false accusations, and threats of eviction are absolutely unacceptable. Also, the listing says there is a mini kitchen, but in reality: There’s no table inside, so we had to eat on the bed or floor. Eating outside is not allowed There’s no microwave, and the electric stove is barely working — we couldn’t even heat up food properly. I’m not a picky guest, but this experience was very unpleasant and disappointing.

The room was clean, the area was quiet, and the location is convenient. It's a peaceful place, and the bed and bathroom were in good condition.

everything was horrible, the place smelt horrible. The doors are huge wooden doors that were hard to open. The shower door was rusty and would not close. The owner of the property was very unpleasant. We arrived at the place and there was a note on reception door with my name and room number on it, nobody was there to greet us. After we entered the room I saw the owner and wanted to ask a few questions and give him my passport number but he was in a rush to get to a meeting so he left. The next morning he came to our room requesting the passport number when he saw a little kitten sitting under our outside table and practically through the table and chair at the kitten. He started yelling at me like a mad man that we cannot feed the cats and that this was his property. When I mentioned why the room was so disgusting his answer to me was "what do you expect from a one star" and that's when I got really upset and started yelling back at him. This was listed as a 3 star but it is definitely a 1 star and if we can go less than 1 star that is what I would rate this place and the owner.
