I stayed in the two-room flat with my sister for 9 full days. The flat has a living room with an open-plan kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. It’s great for two people and can even accommodate 3 or 4 people! Both the living room and bedroom lead to a lovely, large balcony. The flat is equipped with air conditioning, which was very much welcome during the very hot Cretan days. :) The flat is about 5 min walk from the beach and lively atmosphere of Platanias. Chania is situated around 20 min away by bus, which departs every 15 min. We travelled there a few times. We also took the bus to the Kissamos port (from which we took the boat to the Balos Lagoon and Gramvousa island) and to the Botanical Gardens. It’s also possible to catch the bus to the Elafonisi beach from Platanias if one wishes so. We would definitely recommend Platanias and Angela’s flat if you like a calm place (rather than a city), which can offer a classic Cretan beach with many bars and restaurants, but at the same time isn’t too far away from a city or the attractions of the western part of Crete if you’d like to visit them. Angela was a lovely host and visited the flat every day. She was always available to offer help and answer any questions. Anastasiia was available online through the Airbnb portal and responded to our messages in no time. The only downsides of our stays were (these are totally independent of the flat!) the lack of vegan options in restaurants and bars (the closest vegan restaurant is in Chania and is called Pulse, there is also another one further out in Rethymno and is called Let’s Vegan). Never the less, we met a vegan person in one of the natural cosmetics shops who informed us of the vegan scene in Crete, which was quite helpful, and generally the staff in various restaurants were very accommodating with our requests so we were never hungry (but had to rely a lot on stuffed wine leaves, grilled vegetables and French fries! :D). Another thing that bugged us a little were the bugs :) (whose name I don’t remember), which occupy nearly 100% of the olive and other trees of Crete and make a very loud noise from dawn to dusk so we would definitely recommend the light sleepers out there to take along their ear plugs to avoid unnecessary alarms in the early hours of the morning. Otherwise, the flat is located in a calm, quiet and safe area. Thank you again, Angela and Anastasiia for the lovely stay! :)
