Philoxenia Rooms  

In Palekastro on Crete’s northeastern coast, this compact guesthouse sits within walking distance of the town center and a short drive from beaches like Plakopoules, Chiona and Chrisi. It’s about 15 minutes by car to the famous Vai Palm Grove and close to Toplou Monastery.

Ten air-conditioned rooms keep things simple and fresh, each with a TV, refrigerator, private furnished balcony and an en-suite shower with hairdryer. Take in the views from the rooftop sun terrace and return to easy, unpretentious coastal comfort.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi and a rooftop/sun terrace are standout features, plus tour and ticket assistance to plan local excursions. Free on-site parking is available for guests driving around the region—ideal for chasing nearby beaches and waking up to sea-breeze mornings.

Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected; note the front desk is staffed during limited hours.
