    Irini and her mother were so warm and welcoming. Irini gave us lots of great information about the local area which really helped us make the most of our stay. We had a beautiful sea view and a large balcony. Very comfortable room.

    A very lovely family run hotel! I enjoyed my stay there and appreciated its location: it is on the quieter side of the town, and it takes just a couple of minutes to get to the beach. Many other beaches are within walking distance, plus the road...

Dilina is our home, the place i was brought up. My parents, the owners of the place, use to have a very famus family tavern in the 70tes till early 90tes "Tavern Dilina" with one of the best cretan and greek cusines and my mother was a great dancer learning greek dancing to the guest's. A beautiful relaxing and cool courtyard during the day and evenings, is the first thing you see when you arrive. In front of our place just passing the road is the see and just a few meters on foot is the sandy beach of Ammoudi. We are placed on the green and quite area of the town and only 15minutes walk on the costal road to the center. Easy to move with bus, the bus stop is outside of "Dilina Guest house" and free parking space around. Spacious rooms in the traditional style of a Cretan house on two levels, balcony with a beautiful view of the port of Aghios Nikolaos and the small island of Aghie Pandes, it takes the name from the small church on it. The magnificent mountainous volumes of the Sitia mountain reflect the colors of the sunset making the sunset unique in the gulf of Mireballo. Our guest's believe that it is "a place that has a spirit" I couldn't agree more.
My name is Irene Politi, I was grown up in Aghios Nikolaos and worked in the family business since I was six years old till the end of my school years. After school I went to Athens to study Graphic Design and worked us a graphic designer for eighteen years in the city. I'm also a mother of two beautiful boy's. I wonted to give life again to this special place with all this memories and nice fillings I had since my childhood. The last three years I started to work with foreigners again, giving a lot to home hospitality. I always find it very interesting to meet other peoples with different cultures and to exchange views on many issues concerning their country and their usual. Always try to do my best to make my guest's feel at home with care and zest, and You make me happy and proud of my self when I read all this nice reviews that learn me more about how to get better every year. Thank you very much for shering ideas with me I 'm always glad having you in my house.
We are opposite "Minos Beach Art Hotel" the first hotel on the island were the tourism started in Crete since 1963 with significant guest's like, politicians, kings & queens of other countries, artists etc. Ammoudi sandy beach is one of the nicest in town with Blue flag and coffee places to relax. Nice restaurant's are placed above the see in 50 meters from the house. We are in the hotel area.
