A lovely stay! A beautiful apartment set up on the hillside surrounded by olive trees and beautiful views. A 5 minute walk down the hill to the old town of Platanias which has a few tavernas overlooking the sea & sunset. A further 10 minute walk down the hill takes you to the main town and beach, with lots of places to eat and drink. Just a note - the hill is quite steep so if you have walking difficulties this may be an issue - but we didn’t mind.
Ioanna met us in town and took us up to the apartment, recommending taveras along the way. On arrival we were provided with some bread & jam and lots of teas & coffee. The apartment was spotless and cleaned twice more during our week stay. WiFi worked well.
The main balcony which connects the living room & main bedroom has wonderful views & is a great little sun trap for most of the day. Out the fron there’s a big table and more sun loungers with an outdoor shower.
We rented a car and there was lots of parking space; I would really recommend renting a car and exploring some of the beautiful beaches Crete has to offer!
Definitely recommend.
