Beachfront vacation rentals in Platanias

Beautiful, clean, and very responsive. The stay was as advertised. This home is well maintained, comfortable , and close to everything.

Kostas muy amable, nos esperaba con un aperitivo y un kuchen increíble! el lugar estaba realmente frente a la playa, podíamos ir y volver caminando. Supermercado y restaurantes muy cerca.

We spent the most lovely time at Nikos place with our baby and friends. The villa is located directly by the sea with a spectacular view. We enjoyed really enjoyed our breakfasts watching the waves and listening to the ocean so much. The place is very quiet and private. Nikos is the most welcoming host and gave us great directions for the island. We can definitely recommend staying there! Thank you so much for having us.

פאני היא אישה מקסימה והבית היה נוח ומפנק רגע מים נפלא. היו משחקים מוכנים לילדים וכל דבר שצריך לבישול. היי נו שתי משפחות ארבעה מבוגרים שלושה ילדים ושתי תינוקות והיה לנו הכי נוח. פאני דאגה להכל והעיירה הייתה נוחה עם מסעדות טובות וחנות יין קטנה עם הענבים מקומיים. מאוד מאוד ממליצה 🩷

Host was so helpful. Apt was lovely we especially loved the veranda and having breakfast on it at sunrise. Very peaceful. Apartment had all the amenities you need and it’s great having a washer.

We loved this place. The balcony was very large with a direct view of the sea. There was a natural swimming area in front of the place that was perfect for a dip anytime. The sunsets were amazing. It is close enough to walk to the Chania city center, but a car is recommended to visit the many beaches on the island. Elpida was always available for any guidance that was needed. The place is a gem we hope to visit again!

Absolutely beautiful location, 2 minute walk to the main Old Port area and tons of nice shops in the back streets.

Alkis was an amazing host! He went above and beyond with helpful directions and recommendations. Daily check-ins and lots of cleaning via whats app, to ensure we were happy. He even helped navigate the streets by piloting us through some closed roads when we went anywhere, many thanks Alkis.

What an absolute gem of a place! Let's start at the beginning. We were a group of 4 adults. The property owner kept us up-to-date with all needed information prior to arrival & included links for local eateries, activities & attractions to better plan our stay. We had a taxi booked from & back to the airport which worked like a dream. On our arrival, we were met by the owner, Dimitris, & his son Kostas, who gave us a quick tour of the property, pointing out key features & how to operate the electric gate before leaving us to enjoy the setting, which is right on the beach with some astonishing views. Despite being right on the beach, We didn't feel overlooked in the slightest & the infinity pool is a beautiful to spend a few hours a day. There are several restaurants in Stavros & two mini-marts a short walk away. We visited Chania one day & did a boat trip to the remote cove of Seitan, but otherwise we lazed by the pool, swam in the sea & dined like royalty. In short, perfect!

The location was amazing, the view was great and transportation was very easy. The villa was spotlessly clean and I had no problems with hygiene. The staff was very attentive and helpful, they helped us with everything. The villa's facilities were also quite sufficient, especially the pool and garden were very enjoyable. Overall, I was very pleased with my accommodation experience and would recommend it to everyone.

Le séjour était parfait, avec un accueil parfait ! Je recommande les yeux fermés

A lovely villa - looked exactly like the photos. We were a family of 8 adults and 2 small children and there was room for all of us. Kitchen was big enough with every utensil (and more) you could think of. Our host was there to greet us and was always responsive when needed ( 2 small issues both quickly resolved). A lovely welcome basket of food/drink etc was a nice touch. I would not say a car is essential - its less than 10 mins walk to several lovely restaurants and a nice little beach. However the nearest proper supermarket is 30-40 mins walk although its only a 10 euro taxi back and youll save more than that as the local shop (2 mins down the hill) is only really any good for fresh bread and emergency supplies! The outside/pool area in villa was roomy and the inside hot tub/sauna were well used. My only advice would be to have some sun loungers on the terrace outside main bedroom as that did seem wasted space although lovely views of the mountains and the sea. We would stay again.

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful, well-kept, and lovingly furnished place. Everything you need is there. The host was super friendly and gave us some good recommendations for restaurants and the surrounding area. Upon arrival, the fridge was already stocked with drinks, fruit, and other items, so there was no need to go shopping on the day of our arrival. It was a perfect stay, and we would love to come back.

Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub Die Ferienwohnung war super gemütlich mit tollem Meerblick. Manolis war immer verfügbar und hatte hilfreiche Tips Strand mit Schatten in 2 Minuten zu Fuß zu erreichen. Nette Restaurants in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft. Nach Chania zum venezianischen Schafen läuft man in 15-20 Minuten

We had a fantastic stay here. The house is spacious, very well equipped and very flexible. The surrounding is absolutely beautiful. Even though we came at the end of season and the weather wasn't perfect anymore, we enjoyed every minute. Aleksandra and her family are very caring and supportive, true hosts!

Beautiful villa in a great location. If your are stunned by the pictures, you sure will be stunned by the villa itself - it is simply a gem. It lies at the top of a hill overlooking Kissamos. If you don’t mind a short, steep walk, you can even reach the town (and a supermarket) per foot. If there is anything to criticize then it is the kitchen equipment - a few more big bowls for salad etc would be great. Ioannis is a great host, super friendly and helpful. We are definitely coming back.

Wir hatten einen äußerst guten Aufenthalt in der Wohnung. Wir wurden freundlich in Empfang genommen. Die Wohnung hatte alles was wir benötigten und war sehr sauber und modern. Wirklich schöne Terasse mit Blick auf das Meer. Auch die Reinigunskräfte waren sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir würden jederzeit wieder her kommen und können die Wohnung nur empfehlen.

This is absolutely our favorite Airbnb that we've ever stayed in (and we've stayed in a lot). The place is adorable. Katerina is very responsive and lives right by the apartment. The view is wonderful, and both the living room and twin bedroom have doors that open onto that view. It has everything you need and more, with Katerina providing treats and even cereal and milk for that first morning. The air conditioning worked well, but there is also a lovely breeze from the sea. There are tons of restaurants and cafes just below the apartment as well as with 5 and 10 minutes walk in Old Town. It would be comfortable for a couple and a third person (such as a child) or two people, each with their own room. The washing machine was great to have, and you can dry clothes on the lines off the balcony. We did not want to leave.

Highly recommend staying at Simos's place! Very well-maintained, short walk away from many shops and restaurants, and the view of the water from the balcony is spectacular. Very much enjoyed our time there!

Lovely place in Chania. The view of the lighthouse from the dining table never gets old no matter what time of day. The completely open-concept space is a little bit too open at times. My friends and I found it somewhat difficult to get privacy for changing/dressing etc. The bathroom was also not in a super convenient location and would occasionally not get hot water at all. It can be a bit noisy in the evenings, it is in a very central/busy location with shops and restaurants abound. Be warned: the store directly below does not shut off their music until 23:00 and is very audible through the floor. Maria was also a great host and responded quickly to any ask! Kitchen, beds and other amenities were just right, would recommend!

Perfect spot for us, near the beach, lots of good food joints and a very helpful host😊

10/10 experience. Breathtaking views and sunset from the balcony, perfect location right on the harbor - surrounded by all of the best restaurants and places. The apartment is beautiful - clean, modern, great appliances. (The washing machine even uses AI). The apartment is spacious, comfortable, and despite being in the middle of the action, it is so peaceful. I didn’t want to leave. I will be back here again. The hosts were incredible. Kind, helpful, proactive, and made such a nice experience for us. Thank you!!!!!

A stunning new apartment - spotless, comfortable with all the luxuries of a fine home. Everything is new and it’s decorated beautifully. Quiet too. Amazing location.

Tolles Apartment mit sehr schönem, privaten Garten, nur durch eine Straße vom Meer getrennt. Wir haben uns sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt, die Gastgeberin war sehr nett, gab uns gute Tipps und stand immer für Fragen zur Verfügung. Wir konnten Buddelzeug für die Kinder ausleihen, haben Holz für den Kamin bekommen und eine wunderbare Zeit dort verbracht. Der Garten bietet duftenden Jasmin, verschiedene Zitrus- und andere Bäume. Wir haben jeden Morgen draußen auf der großen Terrasse gefrühstückt, es hätte auch noch eine zweite mit Grill bekommen. Wir waren Ende Oktober dort, Klimaanlage (nicht benötigt) und Heizung (auch nicht gebraucht) sind vorhanden, auch teils Fliegengitter gegen die leider noch recht aktiven Stechmücken. Ein Auto ist schon sinnvoll (eigener Parkplatz vorhanden), eine Bushaltestelle wäre aber auch in der Nähe gewesen. Fußläufig Cafés, Restaurants und kleine Supermärkte. Bis Chania-Zentrum 15 Min. mit dem Auto. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen!
