Sfakian Horizon

The hotel is a 5 minutes up the hill of the restaurant area of Sfakian, parking is in front of the hotel. We had a room with a balcony and a nice sea view, the furniture was very simple but everything worked well. Breakfast was ok. There is a swimming pool but we did not use it.

I stayed at this hotel for a few days and really enjoyed the time I spent there. The location offers a glorious view over the little town of Sfakia, looking down to its picturesque harbour. It's worth pointing out however, that access to and from the town is via some perfectly good but quite steep stairs as the hotel must be around 100m above the town. It's no problem for anyone in reasonable health, but for anyone who struggles with mobility it might cause a problem. The comfortable appartment-style rooms all open out onto or are above a large sun terrace with a decent sized swimming pool in the middle of it. Ideal for a quick dip at any point during the day. The staff were all very cheery and helpful and along with the views and comfort, helped to make my stay a very enjoyable one. My only complaint is that the breakfast on offer every morning was a little basic compared to what I'm used to at hotels. There were more than enough options to please most tastes, but the lack of a (free) coffee machine serving fresh coffee and no fruit salad as an option (unlike other places I stayed in Crete) made me leave 4 stars rather than 5. But please don't let this put you off. This is certainly one of the nicest hotels to stay in if you plan a stay in Sfakia and I'd happily stay there again if and when I visit that town again in the future.

This hotel is ideally located for awesome sea views and quick access to a beach and dining options. Niki is a very welcoming manager who responds to requests and offers good advice for dining considerations

Just a lovely hotel, quiet, great views, comfortable and clean room. Would def stay again.

Perfect Accommodation. Wonderful food. Very happy and helpful staff. Great position I stayed here with our swim group with the Big Blue Swim from the 8th till 15th June. Had an amazing week Started every morning with tasty breakfast round the pool and went to bed in air conditioned comfort every night. Sad to leave

The hostess was very friendly and helpful. The hotel was in a great location with free parking and it was only a 3-minute walk to the city centre. Our hotel room had a great view of the sea and the spread for breakfast offered a variety of items for us to choose from and it was all included in our reservation. Overall, it was a great stay for one night and we would definitely go back when we’re in town again.
