Studio Rafaela is a beach front line studio with straight sea view. A basic and clean studio close to the beach. Private balcony with view to Matala Bay and his famous caves. The private bathroom is located in the cave, featuring shower, toilet and also washing machine. The studio`s kitchen has all the necessary primary facilities and a refrigerator is available.

Matala is known as a touristic resort with bars and restaurants. So you do can expect liveliness and music here, honestly this is the charm of it, and the reason why people want to visit it.
