Un endroit parfait, le cadre(La terrasse et le jardin) est charmant, la décode très bon goût. Le service est discret et sympathique. Un petit regret : le manque de fréquentation en ce début de saison. A recommander

Great little place to stay in Matala, though not near the beach - but then not near the noise either. Great people.

Stayed in the Xenophon last year and was welcomed and recognised by the owners. There is a nice family atmosphere, well run, clean and efficient, good breakfast and handy base for the area.
