this space was stunning. the view was amazing and the automatic blinds were so cool to operate! platanias is a party town which was great for us but keep in mind you will hear a light roar of the city below. location is close to many restaurants, bars and shops, and very close to the beach! if you have a car its a 25 min drive to old town chania, and 5 minutes away from agia marina. would have liked to have a second set of keys (we were only provided one) and the beds were very uncomfortable (mattress toppers would be a big help). also would have been nice to provide shampoo, body wash, and handsoap, but we purchased and left behind for the next traveler! with a few small changes this place would be a 10/10, but for now we rate it an 8/10. would definitely come back for the views and location.
