Great place to stay on the east side of Crete
We were able to use this lovely hotel as a base to explore Vai Beach and surrounding areas, then Ierapetra the next day.
One thing I really like about the hotel is that they let you check in as early as noon, and not leave until noon.
The patio facing the water was very nice. Many people were sitting outside enjoying the sound of the waves and the breeze.

Petras beach hotel
Charming hosts who wanted to please. Right opposite the sea but very remote from anything to do without a car, beware! It is a 15 minute walk to anything.
Everything very adequate and there are plans to upgrade and update for next season. Sitia was an attractive town with a harbour and a huge choice of restaurants. Bus service wonderful.

Stay nearer town
Not impressed. Location wasn't good as too far from town. Internet was slow. Plumbing pretty average. Breakfast not good. Stale croissant, Horrid juice, bad coffee.
Overall - stay somewhere else!

Good if you want just a simple room.
Always, you enjoy what you pay for. In this motel-type property, run by the owners, you find the simplest possible room. Probably it should be cheaper to be consistent with money-for-value. The good points is its vicinity to the sea front and the town of Sitia. Other than that, it was clean and friendly.

Inconfortable
Séjour triste dans un hôtel vétuste. Situé au bord d'une route passante avec une plage inconfortable de l'autre côté .Loin du village. Chambre peu avenante avec une climatisation sentant le croupi et une salle de bain étriquée et peu entretenue . Nous avions réservé 4 nuits et nous sommes partis après la première

Sitia was not over favourite city on our Journey around the island but if you should stay in Sitia and you have a car this is the Place. Charming place with a garden with fruit trees. Try to get a garden view room. Ocean view has a road in front. The Beach are ok. We didn't stay on the beach. Clean room. Not so big. Nice host.

Ένα μικρό οικογενειακό ξενοδοχείο με θέα την Σητεία. Ήσυχο, καθαρό, μπροστά στη θάλασσα. Μόλις 2 λεπτά από την πόλη.

Opphold Sitia
Helt grei plassering, kunne vært meget bra med litt innsats utenfor og innvendig.
Litt langt fra sentrum, men det var vi klar over.
Med bedre rehold inne og ute samt trengende oppussing kan dette stedet bli meget bra.
Grei mottakelse og hyggelig vertskap.

Hotel Petras Beach
In diesem kleinen Hotel haben wir wundervolle ruhige Tage verbracht. Es liegt direkt am Meer und ist als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge an der Ostseite Kreta's bestens geeignet.
Die Besitzer waren sehr freundlich und nett, jeden Morgen gab es ein sehr grosszügiges Frühstück direkt an den Tisch oder auf Wunsch auch auf die Terrasse. Die Zimmer waren immer sauber und an frischen Handtüchern und Bettwäsche hat es nie gefehlt.
Wir können dieses Hotel nur jeden empfehlen!!
