Hotel Porto Loutro Studio, Loutro, Crete

This small 18 room hotel, perched right on the edge of the beach, is one of the only two 'real hotels' in Loutro and provides its clientele with a touch more comfort and sophistication than the other pension style accommodation available in the village.

All the rooms have fans and are particularly well-furnished and attractive, with subtle feminine touches, such as dressers with pretty oval mirrors and stylish light fittings. Crisp cotton bed linen provides that little extra comfort and all the rooms have en-suite shower rooms, elegantly tiled in marble and with WC & wash hand basin and 'amazingly good' water pressure! Each room has its own small balcony with patio furniture and all but 2 rooms have 'full frontal' seaviews!

The hotel also has its own small bar and sun terrace where breakfast is normally served. The bar is open throughout the day and also serves light lunches and a mouth-watering selection of delicious creamy desserts..

The hotel is owned by Stavros and his English wife Alison, intriguingly different in character, but a very likeable couple who, during the summer live next door in a lovely old Venetian house, complete with palm tree in the courtyard. Alison with their daughter, Sophi, run the hotel whilst Stavros has an interest in the local ferry company but, like most of the men in the village, prefers to spend his time fishing...

The hotel has 4 studios at ground floor level, which share a patio overlooking the beach. All the studios have fans and are furnished and equipped to the same high standard as the hotel, but are slightly more spacious, with large fitted double beds plus a convertible sofa bed and en-suite shower rooms. Each also has a small kitchenette, with fridge and 2 ring electric hob.

Loutro, Crete
Tiny, blue-shuttered whitewashed houses, nestling beside a sapphire and turquoise sea. Sleepy waterside tavernas with rugged mountain backdrops, the gentle tinkling of goat bells and a sense of timelessness and peace. Set around a sheltered bay, with its pebbled beach disappearing into crystal clear water, Loutro has the somewhat unique attraction of no roads, no cars and just the odd donkey or wheelbarrow for local transportation. ...More about Loutro >>
