Megim Hotel, hotel in Palaiochora

Located 328 feet away from Grammeno beach, Megim offers free transportation around the area and free sun beds and umbrellas on the beach.

We liked the fact it was away from the main town and within walking distance to Grammeno Beach which is sandy. The local beach is just a few minutes walk away across the road with a lovely cafe/ staff but it's pebble beach but also beautiful.The water is crystal clear. The breakfast was generous and wonderful and the two ladies who did the breakfast and cleaned our rooms we're so lovely. The garden is beautiful. People took the breakfast out on a tray and sat under the vine. I enjoyed watching the goats on the rocks behind the house. There are quite a few restaurants to eat in nearby within walking distance if you didn't fancy driving into Paleochora town including one in the campsite which is nearby.

Casbah Boutique Hotel, hotel in Palaiochora

Casbah Boutique Hotel provides rooms with free WiFi in Palaiochora, conveniently located a 4-minute walk from Pachia Ammos and 600 yards from Halikia Beach.

The place is beautiful, designed and finished to a really high standard. The bed was super comfy, and all the staff that I met were really friendly and accommodating. I love the little touches, like some olive oil, washing up liquid and kitchen roll given to me which meant that I didn't have to buy these items - always an issue of waste when travelling for a short time if you want to cook. I loved my time here and will definitely be back!

    I love Palaiochora - have visited several times.

    I love Palaiochora - have visited several times. There is a very long sandy beach on the west side of the village - the sunbeds and umbrellas do not dominate the beach due to its size. There is a nudist area at the northern end but, sadly, it looks like the cantina there is not open this year. There is also a beach on the east side but it is stony and not to my liking. In the evening a couple of streets are closed off to traffic (but not to kids cycling at top speed through the pedestrians grrr) and the roads are occupied with tables and chairs for the various bars and cafes. There are many places to eat in the village and a wide selection of menus available. Agios bar is one to visit - definitely. If staying for more than a few days a ferry trip (40 minutes or so) to Sougia is worth trying. Gialiskari is another nice beach along the coast - about an hour's walk or 15 minutes by car.

    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.

    Wonderful location near the ferry port, beautiful beach and restaurants. 10 minute walk to all. Clean and quiet room with all the bathroom amenities, water and sodas in the fridge. Margarita and Valentis were such caring and thoughtful hosts by making sure we had everything we needed when we requested it and made sure we had the perfect parking spot outside the property! Beautiful church next door and lovely to see the families there enjoying their Sunday. Really a magical spot for the perfect stay in Paleochora!

    We already had a booking for 2 weeks in Rethymno and went to Palaiochóra to see friends for a night. We wanted something easy and inexpensive. Niki Rooms were perfect. The room was a great size with a balcony and was clean and comfortable. It was a few minutes walk to the beach and to the main are for restaurants and bars. Olivia (Hostess) was super sweet and kind. I also loved the communal kitchen. Last point.... we drove there and it was easy to park

    The owner and her trusty cleaner Katarina were wonderful. So friendly and welcoming. The room was adequate. Comfy beds, great shower, a little tight in the kitchen area but I used it mostly for coffee and breakfast. It was the location that I really enjoyed. A 7-8 min walk into town to catch the free shuttle to the beach and situated at the edge of town making the return 4km walk a bit shorter.
