Hotels Near Saint Anthony in Anatolikos Selinos

Location, driving for an hour and a half from the port of Crete, in the mountains, steeper, rent a car. . Because this town is relatively remote, we walked down the town and I was with my husband and two Asians. The outside of the hotel looked very clean. After entering, the facilities were old and there were electric fans. The keys are also very personal, there are no toiletries, the bathroom is small, and the breakfast is not very rich. Driving from the pink beach for an hour and a half, the straight line is relatively close, but the mountain is slower. The hotel is also on the beach, the sea breeze is big and slightly cold.

We are 2 days into our 11 day stay at Spilia village and so far cannot fault the hotel. The rooms are beautiful, manos and the rest of the staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating and the setting is stunning. We are very good food and wine lovers and the food has been fantastic and the wine pairings recommended by manos have been perfect. We have been to Crete a few times and have always struggled to find a place with decent Greek wines, this place has them in plentiful supply. We’re yet to explore all the surrounding areas but the staff are more than happy to provide recommendations on where to explore and the best way to get there. We are looking forward to the rest of our stay and hope to continue this 5/5 star review.

Excellent small hotel. Recommended All the staff were great but a special mention to Eleni & Vicki on reception who were a great source of local information, happy to chat and always gave a warm welcome Breakfasts were really good with a selection of hot & cold food. Loved the fresh orange juice , the homemade cakes and avacado cheese tomato on toast Pool pretty small but there aren’t loads of guests so no problem getting a sun bed. Pool towels provided Room was very clean with linen, towels changed every few days. Best shower I’ve ever experienced in Greece. Coffee maker but would have liked a kettle as well Pita Griil (recommended) & small supermarket just over the road. Sandy beach, more supermarkets restaurants 200 yards with a frequent bus service to Chania Town for 1.5 euro

We have just spent a week at Corinna Mare. We were looking for something good value and didn’t want to spend alot, but still nice and clean and nice pool area. They appeared to be fully booked, but when I contacted them were able to accommodate us if we swapped rooms half way through - which we were fine to do, they gave us a discount for this. Our first room was a studio, and the bathroom was a bit tired, however, the room was big and the bed was big and comfy. There was an issue with the sink when we checked in and they rectified this immediately. The second room was the apartment. We weren’t sure what to expect as it was road facing - however, the bedroom went onto the side and so there was no noise. This was a more up to date room. Both rooms were clean. I think for what you pay here it is really good value. The pool area was excellent, and there is also a little pebbly beach area. There are two pools, one is deeper and it’s no jumping etc. and another shallower pool more aimed at kids. This has a lifeguard. The bar is reasonably priced, and the staff are great. We had a few meals at the restaurant. Salads are massive as are sandwiches. The Greek omelette was really good. We only had dinner one night, and it was gorgeous. There is a great view of sunset. They do some fixed menu deals which were very good value (€20 or less for starter and main) and really nice. I am coeliac, and so gluten free and there was plenty of choice and the staff were accommodating. There is a shop just over the road for any basics, you buy your bus tickets there for Chania. 15mins on bus, they are really regular and run until about 1am. €1.50 per person. We hired a small car for a couple of days (€55 per day - mars) to go to lake kournas, and also the botanical gardens. We did a trip to the Samaria Gorge, getting picked up outside the hotel. Yannis at reception was really helpful with any questions we had and helped with booking dinner reservation. The staff in general were friendly, helpful and laidback. There is a really nice atmosphere in the hotel and in general with the area, the locals are all really friendly. We went to To Antikristo for dinner on our last night and this was favourite meal. Well worth the journey to get there.
