I arrived at Porto Platanias Beach Resort & Spa on the 1st day of the season. The staff were so kind and welcoming, everyone was smiling and helpful. The hotel is huge, there are a lot of buildings and swimming-pools, but it's easy to find your way around. I spent an amazing time in the Sparkling Spa, the whole facility is divine, especially the pool and the hydromassage.
Dinner was served on the 1st floor of the restaurant with a beautiful view over the hotel's beach and Theodorou Island. Both dinner and breakfast were buffet, the meals were delicious, especially the salads and deserts. ( I loved the orange cream! ) They offered Greek specialities, too.
I got some Easter presents: "tsoureki" ( milkbread ) and Easter candles. This was a really nice touch.
All in all, the hotel is great, but the kind and attentive staff make it even greater. I loved my short holiday at Porto Platanias and will definitely return.
On the beautiful beach of Kolymbari, 20 km from the city of Chania, lies Grand Bay Beach Resort. The resort boasts an outdoor hot tub.

Overall, everything was excellent. The food was delicious, and the area is great for walks. Canya is nearby, making access easy. Andreas at the pool bar ensures that you have a great time. His attitude and expertise are top-notch, and anyone served by him is lucky.
Offering a pool with a sun terrace, Aestas Apartments are 400 metres from Agia Marina Beach. They feature elegantly decorated accommodation with garden or Cretan Sea views.

Katerina helped keep us informed and communicated well all important information and left our keys in a safe place at reception for our arrival as we were delayed by 2.5 hrs due to our flights and it was gone midnight. Very helpful, however little comment to say as it was late and dark out, we struggled to find reception (straight ahead and up the stairs, on level with the swimming pool) suggesting a bigger bolder signage to suggest the direction of the reception, but all else great.
Boasting quiet street views, Minos Village offers accommodation with a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, a fitness centre and a garden, around 400 metres from Agia Marina Beach.

Location breakfast and staff were fantastic. Especially the people like Maria and Theodora. They listened to my complain about the layout of the room, noise and the temperature very patiently. And were most helpful.

Lovely place to stay with a great balcony, light airy kitchenette and the location was perfect - a quiet street right in the middle of the old town. The best part however was the exceptional host. She was the most welcoming, helpful and charming person I have met, and a great cook 🙂
These hotels offer something a little different in the way of design and usually sit in a trendy, urban part of town. More intimate than your average hotel, they offer high standards with a homely vibe.
We had a lovely stay as a group of 5 girls. The host’s couldn’t do enough for us. Helped with recommendations, links, taxi numbers etc. We were contacted as soon as we landed and given directions to the villa, where we were met by the host who showed us around and made us feel welcome. Brand new accommodation. Very clean and quiet. Beautiful rooms and 2 balconies. We had a wonderful stay, thank you so much.
Sevi was a very good host. She greeted us with fresh fruit and other local products and even gave us an upgraded villa with an extra bedroom. Everything was beautifully looked after and the big garden with lots of plants and beds next to the pool were a luxury. It is very quiet there and very private. We also enjoyed being able to walk to the sea/beach (5 min. walk).
Nice location, quiet, and not far from balos and chania. And an hour drive to elefanossi. Spacious apartment and lovely host. We liked the nearby beach.
So clean, comfortable and very good size, lovely balcony, lovely gardens, very warm welcome and welcome pack. Short walk to the village with a great village bar and amenities, short walk to the pebble beach. Very quiet. Just perfect
Good and safe location, excellent view to mountains. Good size pool, and beach is only within a 10min walking distance. Villa was nicely designed and with new appliances. We had a great time, and host was super helpful.
location super b , two minutes from the beach , the most friendly hosts , great food, lovely atmosphere and budget friendly apartments
