hotéis em Plakias

Prós: A infraestrutura do hotel é maravilhosa, diversas piscinas e uma praia linda e incrível praticamente privativa pros hóspedes. Refeições de café da manhã, almoço e jantar eram muito boas.

Contras: Do sistema all inclusive, não foi exatamente um all inclusive, os funcionários nos regravam com o número de torrada que pegávamos e era só isso que tínhamos direito fora as refeições principais, o que não considero all inclusive. Antes de chegar no hotel eu perguntei o que tinha incluso na parte de bebidas e me falaram “carta de vinhos” “cervejas variadas”... mas tinha apenas um tipo de cerveja, local, era boa mas não tínhamos escolha também. Nunca vi a tequila quer serviam e me cobraram 2€ para acompanhar sal e limão, achei um absurdo já que eu tinha pago all inclusive. Além disso os funcionários (com exceções, claro) eram arrogantes para servir, enfim, não entendi se era cultural ou não, espero que eu esteja errada.

Prós: Good chose, nice location and timing also convinient

Contras: No drinking water available in resort between meals. It could be easily sorted if add a tap with filtrated water next to bar area.

Prós: Excellent breakfast. Beautiful and unique location. Variety of activities and facilities to choose from. Choice of swimming pools and sunbed areas were fantastic. Wonderful massages from the Ladies in the SPA. Yoga studio superb!

Contras: Hard to find fault. If anything, as non all inclusive guests, having to pay for every drink separately at the pool bar and not being able to charge it to the room was a little tiresome.

Prós: Da localização

Contras: O serviço de limpeza é inexistente, as toalhas de banho cheiravam a comida e os lençóis nunca foram trocados. Utilizamos a medida de meia pensão e numas noites cobraram as bebidas e noutras não. O quarto precisa de remodelação imediata. A casa de banho para além da falta de limpeza, tinha o autoclismo avariado. Os funcionários pouco atenciosos e simpáticos, à excepção de uma funcionária chamada Mónica que sempre demonstrou um ótimo profissionalismo. Face ao exposto este hotel não corresponde à gama de 4 estrelas.

Prós: The pools were great, enjoyed Kalypso dive center, the food was good. The balcony view to the water was great. Staff is friendly.

Contras: The bathroom smelled very bad it needed a deep clean as well. The door to the balcony was broken, the sink water was running all the time, we could hear the people in the room next to us, the beds were uncomfortable, we were not given a key to the safe. There was no WiFi in the room.

Prós: O lugar é lindo, praticamente dentro do Mar. Pegamos o pacote com comida e bebida incluso. A comida estava excelente O quarto era gigante e com uma linda vista .

Contras: A bebida deixou a desejar o chuveiro não tinha suporte para pendurar a ducha, tínhamos que ficar segurando. O hotel nos cobrou €10,00 para usar as cadeiras dentro do próprio hotel que ficavam na parte da praia , não entendemos qual foi o intuito de pagar um “resort” e ter que pagar as cadeiras , mas ok.

Prós: Localização excelente com uma pequena "praia" privativa. Instalações muito boas (piscina, ponto de mergulho), Café da manhã e refeição boa e variada.

Contras: Quarto antigo, com um pouco de cheiro de mofo, necessita modernização. Necessidade de depósito de 10 euros por toalha para usá-las nas dependências do hotel.

Prós: The location is amazing! The beds are comfortable and the staff very accommodating. The rooms were clean.

Contras: The breakfast was subpar. I saw a member of staff drop serving tongs on the floor then pick them up and use them. The coffee comes out of an automatic coffee machine. The quality of the food was poor. No wifi in the rooms, only in 'public' areas. The nightly show was very loud and went late into the evening.

Prós: A vista é lindíssima assim como os espaços exteriores.

Prós: Massage. Ok but it was up a lot of steps Paid for an evening meal. Excellent value high quality buffet.

Contras: A lot of steps. Obviously couldn't be avoided because of the location but still....A lot of steps everywhere

Prós: Christina's massage. Open-minded restaurant staff, who added vegan options especially for us. Nature. Damnani sand beach (30 min walk). Sea view from everywhere.

Contras: No Wi-Fi in the room AT ALL. Old beds and matrasses (our backs hurt). Dirty old bathrooms. No sea handrails. Slippery stairs by the sea. No bottom. No lifeguards and lifebuoys. Water quality at the restaurant is awful. The same dishes every day.

Prós: Nice place and wiew

Contras: A lot of things has to bee reenewed, bathroom was worn out.

Prós: The view is spectacular. Breakfast buffet offers a wide variety, one of the best we've had.

Contras: This hotel may have once been 4 stars but no longer. The older gentleman at the reception is a disrespectful, arrogant individual who should be fired. However, the rest of the reception staff was quite helpful. We received the room and it was clearly unclean (used towels, unemptied bathroom trash can containing filthy toilet paper, unchanged bed linens, bed side table with sticky residue if you know what I mean i.e. bring your own UV lamp). One morning, we were in the room when the cleaning ladies appeared. They basically only swept the floor. We had to ask the front desk for clean towels. The old reception guy asked the other desk clerk to deal with us because he couldn't care less. Many other negatives but no more space to write!

Prós: Layout of the resort and atmosphere were excellent, reception staff and entertainment staff very good, the location is very scenic. Lovely pools, great for children, and wonderful swimming in the cove. Enjoyed the spa and even the gym facilities. Everything was clean and well maintained.

Contras: The food was not very good quality and the buffet offer was quite repetitive. Chicken wings, liver and tongue for one evening meal. Fruit at dinner limited to melon all week. We were happy to go out for dinner.

Contras: The room was well designed but the bathroom smelt really bad making the whole studio smell musty and mouldy. We sneezed and coughed all night

Prós: Position, location, facilities

Contras: Staff were not welcoming. We felt out of place and believe we were the only Brits there! On arrival, initially we had a few problems with the room and facilities and these were not dealt with properly. I would not recommend this hotel for a lone couple. A group may be welcome though?

Prós: amazing place and location, very tastefully done, interesting architecture and layout of resort, swimming pools overlooking the sea and surrounded by mountains. just beautifully done in an amazing location. wish i had planned more time to stay there !!!!!

Prós: The facility is great, access to sea and walkways were excellent.

Contras: The music one night was too loud & lasted too long.

Prós: vVisited Plakias

Contras: the staff did what they have to do and nothing more

Prós: Location of the hotel is fabulous, isolated but of outstanding natural beauty, albeit difficult access without own transport. Children liked the animation programme in particular.

Contras: It is an 80s construction which apparently has been neglected for a while, that is to say the whole complex needs a bit of refreshing. Although the variety of food was remarkable we did not approve of the higher-than-average use of tinned fruits, vegetable, and juices - especially not as this is Crete!

Prós: Location, location, location. It was very quiet and was very pleasant for going for a walk, staying at the pool or swimming in the deep crystal clear waters.

Contras: The fact that the bed sheets are changed every other day (I assume that is not a characteristic of a 4-star (out of 5) hotel as you have rated it in your website) and the room towels every third day (unless the cleaning crew thinks they are dirty (these are the words the receptionist used)-in that case they will change them every other day. However, we requested them to be changed after staying two nights and they were changed immediately.

Prós:

Contras: repeting drainage problems trying to avoid receiving credit card no food after 21:30 and poor coffee

Prós: Location, clean, great breakfast, very friendly staff.

Contras: Room was not ok for 4. 2 had to sleep in the living, which is fine, but we could not switch off the lights outside. No curtains. Way too light. Not made for sleeping in the living. Enough space, sleeping bed/sofa was good. But is was absolutely not comfortable with 4 as it was not made for sleeping.

Prós: New and confortable

Contras: Breakfast

Prós: At Belvedere everything was completely new, all the instalations: elevator, equipments, toilets, furnitures, building were perfects! The breakfast was correct. Evelokia is a person who managed very well, she did everything that was possible and understood my mobility problems. She is really a nice person. If we go to Plakias again, we’ll stay in this place! I recommend.

Contras: In the first night they accommodated us in another building called Sea View apartments, which we didn’t like because it was downgraded compared with our reservation and was not told us before the arrival. After our complains with some problems, they moved us to the correct place. It was stressed because we stayed only 2 nights.

Prós: Our apartment was located on the ground floor and was incredibly spacious and modern. We particularly enjoyed the swimming pool and day beds. The reception staff were friendly and helpful and there was a nice selection of local breakfast items served each day. Plakias beach and the restaurants are a few moments walk away. We were able to park our car right next to our apartment, which was convenient.

Prós: We had a great time in Belvedere. It is in the centre of Plakias, just a few meters to the beach. Appartment was big and had amazing specius terrace, king size bed with excellent mattress. Extremely clean (thanks to the ladies in charge of cleaning). Big thanks to the woman who makes the breakfast which is great! Very friendly stuff especially Eleni!

Contras: The breakfast room was very hot

Prós: The apartments are huge (if there's only two of you), very clean and tastefully furnished. The kitchen has everything you could want, including an oven, a hob and a freezer. The pool is not much used, so it is almost your own private space - and they have those double recliner bed-things. The staff were all very pleasant and helpful.

Contras: The breakfast was good - except for the coffee from the machine - but there could have been a wider selection. You need to know before you go that Belvedere Apartments are built behind and on top of a supermarket and that the views are of the neighbouring buildings before you see the sea or the mountains.

Prós: Very clean and new lodging. Loved the outdoor terrace with comfy furniture. The staff was very friendly and the breakfast plentiful and delicious. Location was excellent very close to Plakias beach. The linens were plush.

Contras: The bed was large but had the crack in the middle as often is case in Europe.

Prós: Infelizmente, sou obrigada a relatar algo desagradável que ocorreu ao final da minha estadia. Apesar de o hotel ser bem localizado e confortável, não indicaria nem voltaria a me hospedar. No último dia, fizemos check out e deixamos as malas sob a guarda do hotel por cerca de 2/3 horas. Voltamos, pegamos as malas e partimos para o nosso próximo destino. Ao chegarmos, não consegui abrir o cadeado (segredo) da minha mala menor e achei que fosse algum problema da mala. Quando tentei abrir a segunda mala, tive o mesmo problema e percebi que seria coincidência demais as duas malas (marcas diferentes e não sendo usadas pela primeira vez) apresentarem problemas no cadeado ao mesmo tempo. Tive que arrombar as duas malas. Felizmente, não dei falta de nada, mas tive as duas malas estragadas. Ao chegar ao Brasil, mandei mensagem ao hotel, informando o ocorrido, dizendo que eu não sabia o que tinha acontecido, mas que achava que o hotel deveria dar uma investigada, mas não obtive qualquer resposta.

Contras: Minhas malas tiveram o segredo modificado, sendo obrigada a arrombá-las.

Prós: The place was beautiful, and suuuuper comfy. In front of the beach pretty much and we so many restaurants and cafes just a 5 min walk. We were there in low season and there was almost no tourist but it was a lovely warm day. we only stay for one night for my boyfriend birthday. the balcony is big, and the bed incredible comfy. the staff was very friendly.

Prós: Very clean and very well equiped studio

Contras: Dishwasher is not there

Prós: Good location and well kept, with pleasant staff.

Contras: Paid extra for sea views but it’s not worth it. I ended up with a view of the building site opposite and told the sea was in the distance. ( which was true). While this building work is on going they need to re address the costs of the rooms and don’t market these as sea views. Save your money.

Prós: the resort is modern and clean. Personnel is helpful and tried their best to help with the issues we had with the room and weather (below).

Contras: the rooms from the north side are facing construction yard with a lot of noise and dust (and the negative effect is amplified by the strong wind). These rooms shouldn't be rented or customers should we warned about this. Also, wind was very strong during our stay and we couldn't get proper sleep because of it. We asked to change the room and after 2 days we got replacement room on the other part of the resort that was better - brighter, calmer and not facing construction yard. Maybe it was bad luck but wind was unbearable (i.e. we couldn't eat on the terrace).

Prós: The resort looks great, has two good sized pools and nice vegetation. The staff are very welcoming, helpful and kind. The beach is across the street and there is an area with free sunbeds and umbrellas for hotel residents. Our room was spacious and well furnished - we had an apartment, which included a well furnished kitchen and a washing machine. It is self catering but breakfast can be provided upon request.

Contras: The Plakias Bay was very windy while we were there (Northerly winds seem to particularly impact this Bay) - so much so that it made sitting on the beach unbearable after a while. What saved us was going to other nearby beaches - Souda Beach and Damnoni Beach in particular. The resort is not in Plakias itself, but in an area with lots of new construction in progress - it wasn't loud, it just looked a bit grim. The expectation is that all or most of those buildings will be finished by 2020 though.

Prós: Great large, clean, modern new apartment. Building quality above Greek expectation. Staff were really helpfull and service minded. Cleaning was very good Large, nice and clean swimming pool

Contras: niets

Prós: We enjoy being so close to the beach, even when it is windy! And if it is too bad, we can always find shelter in the garden! The balconies outside the apartments are also quite private and large enough that you can eat outside if you like.. We like the walk into town most evenings to choose a nice restaurant, or once in a while climbing uphill to Mirtos to look at the wonderful sunset accompanying a really good meal. Or just walking across the street to our local favourite! Going to Preveli for a day trip is a must, and we still have some planned walking excursions in the neighborhood to do. Since we have been in Plakias and the area before, we can relax and do exactly what we like - no rush! But for those who want some more action, there are gorges not too far away---- For us Plakias is perfect the way it is now!

Contras: Can't think of anything! Maybe the idea that there is much building activity going on, but that is of course very selfish. We only hope that it is the people of Plakias who will profit from this, and not some foreign investors!

Prós: It's a beach hotel , close to the town Plakias, has 2 pools and a baby pool. Pretty good. Quiet.

Contras: The bed could be bigger.

Prós: Perfect location for our family of 8. We had our own swimming pool and the two children aged 3 and 5 could also swim in the pool for children between the two huge pools! And on top of it all, the sea was just across the road.

Contras: it could not have been any better!

Prós: We were allocated a flat in the new build section above the main existing property- these are lovely and well furnished and have great terraces with views over the pool and to the sea. We'd definitely recommend staying in these flats, although they can be a little bit more exposed when the wind gets up. It's only a short (~10 minute) walk into Plakias town centre which is fairly quiet and peaceful and has a number of restaurants to eat in. Plakias beach itself is lovely and well worth spending the day there. Overall, we had a lovely time here and its a great location to use as a base to explore some of the excellent nearby beaches.

Contras: There is a lot of building work currently going on in and around the new sections of the resort and the noise from this did disrupt things on occasion. Unfortunately we were also there during a period of extended wind and this can also be pretty disruptive, with some extreme exfoliation on some of the beaches! Depending on the wind direction though, you can still find some more sheltered beaches in the area.

Prós: Bem localizado, limpo e amigável equipe. Os quartos são agradáveis, mas sendo acordado por conversa ordinária em 2am quando os vizinhos da porta ao lado vieram para casa do bar e conversaram por uma hora não foi agradável. Não há isolamento acústico entre as salas 3 e 4.

Contras: Vizinhos altos e sem isolamento sonoro.

Prós: Excelente vista para o mar, pequeno almoço variado, rececionista muito prestável

Prós: Good location. Extremely clean. Nice bedroom with comfortable beds. Good modern bathroom. Good shower. Fair size balcony. Olga the receptionist was pleasant and helpful.

Contras: Noisy air condition. No insect screen on patio door. Breakfast room was lovely with views of the sea. BUT it would be nice to arrive in the morning for breakfast to laid up tables with more friendlier and more happy staff. Everything was on a do it yourself system. Standard of food and the selection provided for breakfast was poor. Essentially the whole breakfast experience needs an overhaul. For this reason we would not return.

Prós: The staff was incredible and the location is fantastic. Amazing breakfast buffet with beautiful ocean views.

Contras: Loved everything

Prós: -Hotel totalmente reformado -Quarto bem clean e confortável -Iluminação excelente -Banheiro com chuveiro muito bom e bem iluminado -Tomadas próximas a cama -Sacada com varal e mesinha -Ar condicionado, cofre -Staff super atencioso, com várias dicas de praias e passeios -Localização excelente, no centro de Plakias -Área da piscina bem agradavel

Contras: -Café da manhã poderia ter frutas frescas -Hotel sem elevador, necessário carregar as malas -Falta um plaquinha de "do not disturb" para a porta do quarto -Overpriced -No check in ficaram com meu passaporte para tirar uma cópia e só me devolveram no dia seguinte.

Contras: Room was not renovated. Poor lighting. Entrance was in the lobby. Bathroom was really basic, shower drain was not working properly.

Prós: We really like Lamon. It’s close to the seaside. Very nice and modern rooms and bathrooms. Everything is kept clean. The breakfast bufet is large and tastefull. The staff is discrete and helpfull. Especially Olga, the receptionist, so nice to talk to and always with a smile on her face. We will surely return

Contras: The beds are a bit to hard for us.

Prós: This is our second visit at Lamon Hotel with my fiancé. This place is absolutely perfect! Olga gave us an amazing room with view to the sea this time. She also has the best tips on where to go and what to visit. The area is perfect for hiking. The following day we enjoyed breakfast at the restaurant having this amazing view to the sea even here. The food was delicious with lots of pastry options, Greek yogurt with fruits, meat and different kind of cheese, fresh eggs and omelets, all were tasty. The hotel is super clean and our rooms were cleaned daily to a high standard. We would definitely stay here again. We felt so genuinely welcomed, as the staff were all very friendly. If you’re looking for a peaceful, romantic getaway this is definitely the place to be!!

Prós: It was just what I wanted, right by the beach and the room had a balcony looking over the sea. The room was spacious with a spacious bathroom. The hotel is clean and has a swimming pool and a pleasant snack bar. Excellent value for money.

Prós: The room was actually quite nice, swimming pool rather small but clean and well maintained. The beach, shops, parking and restaurants are just a few steps from the door, so great location. Personnel is friendly and helpful, though always in a passive way rather than active. Once you ask they will try their best to help, but problems are sometimes ignored until brought to their attention. But maybe this is a general Greek thing ;) For the rest great value for money: not to expect too much, but good for what it is.

Contras: Minor point is the shower that has no water screen or wall around it, flooding the bathroom time and again. There is a drain but most of the water never gets there. Breakfast is quite basic, maybe at least some variation would be good. Also the airco was not very reliable, but this might have been due to regular electricity problems on the island.

Prós: Great value for money, clean, next to the beach. All rooms have a/c and balcony.

Contras: Some rooms don't have refrigerators, as advertised. Pool sometimes gets dirty and is not cleaned frequently enough. Some bathrooms don't have a separate shower and can thus get messy when showering.

Prós: The strongest point of this hotel is that located a few steps from the sea.

Contras: Cleanliness is an issue for this hotel, especially the smell. A small renovation will improve a lot the total image of the hotel.

Prós: Great location, right on the beach and free sunbeds if you eat at the hotel (just an omelette or breakfast qualifies). Also pool available, with free sunbeds.

Contras: All a bit tired and shabby, but for the price no real complaints. If you want tea/coffee you need to bring your own travel kettle, and ice bags/tray for the fridge.

Prós: swimming pool. Near the beach

Contras: just to sleep

Prós: was very cental area,very spacious rooms

Contras: the rooms very old ,not too clean,bathroom very old,bed not comfortable,breakfast poor with only orange juice and jam!

Prós: comfortable,silens, nice place

Contras:

Prós: Situation of hotel

Contras: bathroom

Prós:

Contras: Breakfast was not worth havingEveryone smokes (but this is Greece)

Prós: Everything. This is a super little hotel tucked away behind the main road, yet still easily accessible and close to everything by foot. It's a new hotel, so everything is wonderful - comfortable bed and clean, large bathroom. The staff was very nice and helpful too!

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Location great, quiet, nice balcony

Contras: Breakfast buffet was mediocre

Prós: Comfy room, very good location. Quiet except for the howling wind! Excellent breakfast.

Prós: Good location, free parking, good value for money, modern and comfortable, good breakfast

Prós: Once you find the parking you are in a good place. Friendly people, nice rooms, top location near beaches, shops and restaurants. Also near boats to Preveli or for hire.

Contras: The sign for the hotel was difficult to see, but parking was well signposted on the road to Sellia.

Prós: Nice people, nice rooms, nice breakfast! Eyerthing was perfect, nothing more to say! :)

Prós: Centrally Located. Right in the Centre. Best, clean, balcony. I took the last room available. So I was on the first floor with the balcony facing the garden. I would suggest to take the second floor if available. All rooms seem to have balconies. Their is a parking lot for the clients, 20 steps away from the hotel steps. Very convenient. I recommend this sparkling clean hotel and well designed. The breakfast is served either in the back garden or in the interior restaurant. Breakfast is quite basic. For a vegan, tomatoes, cucumber, olives and bread and variety of jams. For non vegans cereals, toast, egg and bacon and cheese

Contras: Breakfast as a very small options for everyone. But their is a market across the street for more possible options.

Prós: The friendliness of the staff. The rooms very clean and with very comfortable beds. Breakfast was good and excellent value for money. Highly recommend this hotel.

Prós: We enjoyed the central, but quiet location.

Contras: It was not easy to park the car in front of the hotel, we had to park on the seafront (very close, though)

Prós: Welcomed by Costas the owner. Rooms very clean,modern, comfortable and quiet even though overlooking the street.Good buffet breakfast. Very convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff. A very good experience staying here.

Prós: We enjoyed our stay at this hotel, but mostly we liked the friendly staff, which made us feel comfortable, the breakfast terrace, and the location- Plakias- nice place to have a rest.

Prós: Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable of the town and surrounding areas. They recommended a fantastic resturant ("Gio-Ma") which we went to every night, it was that good! Room was very large, comfortable, clean and newly renovated with a small balcony overlooking the sea. Breakfast is included in the price and is excellent with a selection of meats, fruit, cheese, bread and spreads, eggs, juices and coffee. We would definitely stay here again!

Contras: Bathroom had a strange smell but we realised this was a common feature of many Crete hotels and not specific to Hotel Sofia.

Prós: Nice Hotel,very clean,very quiet.A nice place for someone how wants to relax.Easy access to the beach,to the taverns and the stores.The breakfast was good.The staff was very nice and kind.

Contras: The room wasn't ready by the time we got there (about 14:10) but some time later.

Prós: What I most liked in hotel Sofia was the central localization, the breakfast terrace, free internet, staff kindness and cozy rooms.

Prós: Owners are very kind, and helpful. Location of the hotel is great, 5 min walk to the Ammoudi Beach and another 5 to the smaller -Ammoudaki Beach. There is restaurant in the hotel, and 2 beach bars - one on each beach, so you don’t have to go far for food and drinks supplies.

Contras: WiFi signal in the rooms should be improved.

Prós: Great location, very nice beach

Contras: the refrigerator was not working when we checked in and when i informed the manager his first reaction was that he is not a magicien and he cannot watch every guest to check somebody did something wrong and now it doesn't work!!! Quiet hotel, the price is too high as it old but the location is excellent!

Prós: peacefull position in walking distance from Ammoudi bay, 10 minutes driving from Plakias center.

Contras: they have two apartment, only one of them is worth to stay. the one we had had no day light exept a small window overlooking the mountain. Even in the bedroom the door to the small terrace had a wall in front of it. No light at all in the flat! moreover the airconditioning filters were not cleaned properly and we had to turn it off. We had no light in the apartment for some hours during the evening: they wanted to fixed it the day after but we had to insist to have someone solving the problem during the same evening.

Prós: Quiet area, close to the Ammoudi beach (3 min walk). Kind and friendly hosts. Cleaning lady is thorough, so the room was clean every day. The beds are comfortable. Parking is good under the trees.

Contras: Breakfast could be more varied. More vegetables and fruits.

Prós: We really liked our stay at the Ammoudi hotel. The family atmosphere is very nice, the rooms are clean and we love the location.

Prós: We had a little problem finding the place, we came from Klisidi beach direction and there was a very bad road and no signs. I called the owner and she very kindly gave me the directions. The road is well marked and good from the town Lefkogeia. It was our navigation's fault. The apartment was big and clean, the shower small, as it is usual in Greece, a lot of parking spaces. The owners were very nice, but only one girl speaks English well. We had breakfast and it was ok, it was served and I noticed that the couple that stayed there for a week also got some vegetables, but we didn't. We stayed there only for one night. :-) On our check out there was a problem because the money was taken from my bank account but not transferred to the owner's, so we had to wait for about half an hour, but it certainly wasn't their fault. All in all the stay was fine.

Contras: It would not be fair to say that there were things we didn't like. It is obvious that the family tries hard to please the guests. So I would certainly recommend everyone to stay there. There is a beach right there if you want to just relax, or you can go with a car visit some near by places.

Prós: Good hotel for family, in a quiet location with easy access to the beach. The staff was super friendly, always smiling. Excellent dinner with home made food. Plakias village is around 5 mins drive.

Prós: The room was very clean. The view from the balcony was amazing. Very nice room.

Prós: O atendimento foi excelente, a Luiza deu boas dicas para as melhores praias e conhecer a zona envolvente, em frente a praia, e muito perto de bares, restaurantes e comércio. As vistas de praia são excelentes. Cumprimentos de PORTUGAL.

Contras: Nada a registar.

Prós: Proximity to beaches and restaurants . Friendly welcome , parking close to room . Fridge in the room had been turned on and was ice cold .

Contras: All good

Prós: The people who are running the hotel are lovely, very warm and welcoming. The view from the room was excellent. The room itself was very clean and all the amenities were of excellent quality.

Contras: The breakfast variety as well as the overall quality of the items offered were disappointing really. The restaurant space where breakfast was served was lovely, but a bit 'standard' or dull. Unfortunately, the sheer volume of bees flying around and literally CONSTANTLY landing on our table, plates and food was detrimental to the overall breakfast experience. As a result, we only had breakfast once, although we stayed for 4 nights. I would recommend that the managers review the quality (e.g. better bread, juice, fried eggs!!!) and the variety of the breakfast, to match the quality of the facilities of the hotel (e.g. the rooms are of very high standard). Importantly, I would recommend that they review what they offer for breakfast and use mostly local Cretan food and drinks (e.g. kaltsounia). This would add a Cretan 'flavour' in the breakfast experience! Another way to add value could be by labelling the items on offer at the buffet so that people know what they are, and by offering gluten free or vegan options. All this could be complemented by adding some decoration with traditional Cretan artefacts (e.g. from traditional Cretan homes), or adding some light Cretan (acoustic) music in the background to improve the ambience of the environment.

Prós: Breakfast was great, and taken outside overlooking the sea. Fabulous. The staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful/ This was our second stay and we will definitely be returning.

Contras: We found everything very satisfactory.

Prós: Nice view from the terrace and good location for going to different beaches

Contras: I would advice to charge something more and do not charge for the safe.

Prós: It was a very well kept hotel in a amazing location.

Contras: no complaints

Prós: We arrived at the hotel late night after driving from the airport. The hotel owner was very nice and helpful and even-tough he didn't have our type of reserved room, he suggested to upgrade our room for the first night. He gave us the family room with its Hugh balcony, and the greatest Hugh king-size bed ever. We moved to a smaller room the day after but it was in-did a nice gesture. The location of this hotel is just the best! every morning, we walked two minutes down to the beach - only two minutes!!! - which was a bit rocky, but after getting the idea on how to pass the rockiness we enjoyed it every single day! We did not reserve a room with breakfest because we guessed we will wake up after 10 O'clock. We really recommend this hotel.

Contras: Well... we did not like the idea of using the same shower towels for four days, and, we did not like that the bed sheets were not changed for four days as well... We expected that we will have new set of towels and a new set of bed sheets everyday, and, we don't mind paying for it... e.g. the hotel should have such a service for lets say... 4 EUR more per day. And also, we used the coffee cups that were in the room, but, the room cleaning service didn't clean them (I washed them by myself with generic hand soup while showering). so, I think the hotel should put more effort on its cleaning staff and standards. beside that... still, its a great place for a vacation.

Prós: Very nice place, run by a family. Located in a beautiful place. Stuff is friendly, good breakfast. Better to have a rented car, if you want to go somewhere and not to stay on a beach all the time.

Prós: we loved the location, right on the beach with the most amazing sunsets. also it was close enough that you could walk in to the town to the restaurants. the room was very comfortable and the staff very helpful breakfast was very good.

Contras: the bed could have been a little softer

Prós: Beautiful hotel with good services, great breakfast and nice staff. Located near the most beautiful beaches of the south. Recommended for relax holidays and long stays.

Prós: Quiet area and still close to the village.

Contras:

Prós: Nice view from the room

Contras: No yogurt for breakfast :-(((

Prós: seaview, big room, clean room, comfort location and friendly staff

Prós: We booked the junior suite for 4 nights after having slept in a double room with sea view. The so called junior suit is a great room with big balcony. The double room which we slept in for 1 nights is small with tiny bathroom and small balcony.

Prós: We were upgraded to the “Porto plakias” hotel next door, same management and same breakfast. It’s actually a 3-4 star hotel. Swimming pool, and fantastic breakfast.

Prós: Relaxing,unobtrusive, pleasant staff, quite location but 100 yards to town. Surrounding vegetation.

Contras: Nothing. All good.

Prós: The staff make the hotel. They were really great The swimming pool is really nice to swim in

Contras: The most important thing is safety and the balcony closes with just a hook—very easy to jimmy open with a bent hook via the open slatted shutters My room was ground floor and on the road so I just didn’t feel safe. When I asked about this I was just told the area is safe. But A woman was recently raped and murdered in another safe area on Crete so I don’t think it is okay to have a door that does not securely lock Other than that the hotel is fine—although my bathroom was very jaded

Prós: + very good breakfast + good location (close to the beach) + parking spaces in front of the hotel

Contras: - the shower sets the bathroom under water - the interior was old fashioned

Prós: Location & Facilities

Contras: Walls thin, heard a baby crying all night

Prós: Very friendly reception staff Spa very pleasant, excellent deep tissue massage for only €35

Prós: Price and location

Contras: It was hard to find it, bad breakfast and strange shower just above the toilet.

Prós: breakfast was very good, host was nice and kind. apartment was clean.

Contras: none

Prós: Breakfast was very delicious. Lots to choose from and very fresh.

Contras: The shower was a little small, otherwise all is perfect.

Prós: Lovely place, very helpful staff, very friendly. Great place.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Location was great, parking on site, staff was friendly and helpful. Loved the pool area and bar area. Breakfast was great. Felt very comfortable here. Would be a great place to anchor a vacation exploring the southern coast of Crete.

Contras: A few more pillows would have been nice and the mattresses were a little firm.

Prós: Breakfast was an OK buffet.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Its a great place to stay in Plakias. Quiet but just near the sea front and restaurants. Costas and Chrysoula run a very good hotel. The staff are really friendly and efficient and Angelos a great barman.

Prós: The breakfast was excellent. The staff friendly

Prós: Good location close to the center and restaurants

Contras: The service was not at the same standard as other hotels we stayed at during our vacation. The room was okay but not more and for instance was the door lock quite loose - and there was not any attemp to try to fix it during two days.

Contras: The bed was not very comfortable for me but then no beds are very comfortable for me.

Prós: Rich breakfast and very friendly staff.

Prós: Breakfast was decent. Parking was easy to find.

Contras: There was no curtain in the shower so the floor was flooded in the bathroom. No double beds. I find it a bit overpriced for what you get.

Prós: The helpful staff member (Kelly), the spacious room, pool area & buffet breakfast

Contras: The bathroom shower - has it was over the spa with no shower curtain or shower screen, the floor would be flooded with water. We asked for extra towels to soak up the water but this was not ideal. Also we could not adjust the hot water which was way too hot. I therefore could not wash my hair. Kelly tried to help us but we still could not lower the temperature. Also, the room had no kettle or mugs so we could make a cup of tea. Next time we will ask for these items.

Prós: good breakfast location not to far from the main street on the beach quiet and hospitality very good services to have fun and to relax

Contras: in the shower there where missing a cover to avoid from the water to splash out

Prós: Friendly staff. Excellent service

Prós: TV with many foreign stations. Price of the room was ok.

Contras: Stains were on the carpet and the couch. Uncomfortabe spa bathtube for taking a shower. Wifi was only working outside of the room. Breakfast was less than average, except the coffee, which was good. All in all, not a 4 star hotel at all.

Prós: Very good location. Excellent breakfast with a good choice of food. Nice swimming pool in adjacent hotel. Large bedroom.

Contras: The spa bath and shower was difficult to use. When using the shower the bathroom floor flooded as there was no shower screen.

Prós: The location, the style, the cleanliness, the friendliness, the feeling of ahhhhhhh

Prós: room service was really good, location, staff, facilities. definately worth it, been in those areas 2 times now and know Plakias and around pretty good, and it was a very good choice to choose Anna Ageliki :) stayed with my gf and 1 year old daughter. going towards damnoni beach there is also a donkey farm and we saw lake turtle there too - was surprised as its not on the map. well rested.

Contras: small inconvenience is if you put on both air conditioners and food heating and shower boiler at the same time the electrics power wont hold, so need to press that black button on the wall to reset it. didnt affect our daily life

Prós: Very comfortable studios with a great view, feels great here;) Very clean appartments. We also had dinners included, and the food was delicious. Will miss this place!

Prós: Modern apartment with all kitchen utensils etc including an oven as well as hob. Quiet area, away from traffic but close enough to supermarkets, bus stops, beach, walks......About 15 minutes walk to all of these. No need for a car. We had meals at sister hotel, Anthos Beach hotel just 15 mins walk away where the food was very varied, buffet and suited us.....All part of a value for money half board deal. Staff cheerful, extra helpful and courteous. A lovely place generally to stay and enjoy scenery, walks, beach etc.

Contras: We did not realise key and check in was at Anthos Beach hotel on arrival. This should be in booking.com information. Electric switch was also not on when we arrived so we had to find switch on the wall behind door, although we had put key fob in correctly as you go inside.

Prós: Quiet: no noise from the road Hanger for the wet swimming suits and towels outside. This is convenient.

Contras: Pool a bit small

Prós: We were staying in Alianthos beach. Comfy bed, amazing view. friendly staff, good food.

Contras: Stinky bathroom

Prós: it was very quiet with friendly staff, there were parking spaces, good location if you are with a car.

Contras: The bed is the most uncomfortable we ever slept of. The bathtub could not hold the water. The air conditioner can not cool enough. The button on the toilet cistern was broken.

Prós: Very convenient location across the street from the beach, near everything. The hosts were very kind and helpful, the room - pleaant, very clean and comfortable with wonderful balcony with sea view. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Prós: Great everything

Prós: Great location, very comfortable beds, coffee machine in the room. Friendly hosts. Close to tavernas and cafes for breakfast, dinner etc. Close to the sea.

Contras: Small room, small balcony. The bathroom was a wet room which is okay but it means that when you shower you either drench the room or become attached to the shower curtain. Okay for a night or so but would recommend staying in one of the larger rooms facing the sea if you were staying for longer.

Prós: Perfect location on the beachfront, close to all restaurants, shops, bus stop, etc. Parking always available in front on the street or elle there are a couple of lots nearby. Very kind staff and great value.

Contras: Nothing, but if I had to find something, no normal mirror in the bathroom but that's really being picky.

Prós: Every thing was well made. Always with a big smile

Contras: Didn’t get a room with a sea view;-(

Prós: Value for money. Central, Clean

Prós: Great location just across from the beach and very clean.

Contras: Had a room in the back that overlooked a parking lot but it was no big deal.

Prós: location and the staff was friendly

Prós: Excellent location: in the center of town (but the quiet part of it), facing the Libyan sea; the promenade and beach (with free chairs and parasol) are just across the street. The property is very well maintained and the family who run it are very welcoming.

Contras:

Prós: exceptional location, sea view for all the rooms, friendly staff, facilities

Prós: Great sea view and good geographic location!

Prós: Close to beach and restaurants. Basic rooms with all what you need

Prós: Location is excellent. Ocean and beach view. Hotel is very near to nice restaurants and shops but still quiet. Lovely balcony. Rooms were nicely updated. Loved the music in the elevator :). Very cheerful. Friendly owner (s). Free use of sunbeds in front of hotel. Excellent snorkeling in front of hotel. Would definitely recommend this hotel.

Contras: Sometimes there was an odour in the bathroom. Pouring water in the drain helped remove the smell..

Prós: The rooms are so clean. The bathroom was renovated and totally awesome! We had the view of the sea from our balcony and sipped wine looking at the stars at night. The breakfast was simple yet delicious and the personnel was very kind, friendly & helpful!

Prós: A very nice hotel for visiting for any reason. The beach and the center of the town is near (5-10min. walking). The stuff is very friendly and willing to hear your needs.

Prós: The hotel has a very good location. The rooms had a nice sea view, and the hosts were very friendly an helpful.

Prós: Great location and views, just the right distance out of town for peace but easy walk in. Each room has large balcony overlooking the sea. Room was a bit tired (especially bathroom) but everything worked. Friendly staff. Easy parking on roadway in front of hotel. Great value.

Prós: very good people very nice location very good price

Contras: nothing

Prós: across the road from a beach and walking from town ok

Contras: no where to get food or speak to a member of staff...the place was deserted practically all the time

Prós: There were two staff - both were extremely helpful and friendly

Contras: Wireless internet advertised but not working for the whole of my ten day stay. Intenet access was an important reason for choosing this hotel.

Prós: The hospitality of the manager

Contras:

Prós: Very clean hotel with friendly staff. Well located close to the beach. Rooms are clean and have all you need ! Hotel tenant is very friendly

Contras: Rooms are not so modern but they are confy and clean and you sleep well

Prós: Location, price and friendly owner

Contras: Nothing

Prós: The rooms are bit old but good and clean if you are looking for a place to sleep only. The rooms are fitted with AC if you need one...No TV in the room. For us it was convenient as its well located and close to the beach. Maybe You can find better rooms in the same location for the same price more or less. we used it only for sleeping as we were out the whole day. To go to the best beaches and some of the best restaurants you need to drive anyways. The manager is very friendly and helpful.

Prós: Very nice, family owned place situated in a quiet street. The owner is extremely helpful and always around in case any questions arise. Rooms are tidy and get cleaned as well as provided with fresh linen every day. Breakfast is rich and will be brought up to the room. WiFi is free and fast. The beach is merely 200m away. Shops, bars and restaurants are even closer.

Prós: Very clean, lovely hosts

Prós: Excellent host, great location, big clean apartments, kitchen, parking

Prós: Fantastic modern apartment. Very spacious. Close to the village amenities and beaches. Lovely friendly staff.

Contras: We were in the ground floor apartment. High hedge spoiled a fantastic view. Needs keeping cut to half the hight.

Prós: Great location and wonderful views from terrace. Lady who cleans the rooms is lovely, very helpful and friendly. Apartment is large and spacious and short walk from the bars and tavernas in Plakias, very close to a nice beach.

Contras: No real dislikes other than kitchen could do with a few more utensils /pans etc. We ate out every night but would struggle if you wanted to cook a meal in. A decent breadboard and knife would have been useful!

Prós: We were self-catering. The apartment was spacious and well-equipped (except for the kitchen where items were a bit random). The washing machine was a great plus. The sun loungers, the grassy lawn in front of the property were excellent! The furnishing was very modern and functional, the beds comfortable and clean.

Contras: As we were six people there should have been at least six of each (plates, cups, bowls ...). There was no dish rack to dry dishes (with six people you cannot simply stack everything onto a pile). We got the impression that the floors were not properly cleaned, just a quick brush over. The 'third' bedroom had only a small window which would have benefited from some kind of insect screen so that it would have been possible to sleep by an open window without fear of unwelcome visitors. The cleaner seems to have thrown out a plastic bag which contained some dirty washing - just carelessness.

Prós: Great location. Property was spotlessly clean and great balcony over the sea. You can walk to shops, cafes and restaurants as well as the beach. Lovely buffet breakfast available from the attached hotel if weary of self catering. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Prós: The sea view was stunning with big glass doors towards the sea. The sound of birds and sea. Nice personal. Small village 5min walk. We had an hotel all the week near Chania but we wanted to see the south side so we booked this 2 nights, it was very nice. Next time we book this hotel all the week!

Contras: None. Recommended to rent a car if you come by air.

Prós: Plakias has a relatively busy end and a quiet end. The apartment was definitely in the quite end; but with easy (5 mins) of the main part. The views from the apartment are fantastic. The main veranda is great for sun bathing and the second veranda for just sitting and looking at the sea.

Contras: This is not negative. I was staying with my daughter. Had I been with a wife and two children there would have been little storage space. Also the sleeping arrangement is a double bed and single in the bedroom and a sofa that converts to 2 singles in the lving room. This could be a problem with a family. The "cooker" is one main ring, one small ring and a small oven/grill. It should be appararent from the photos that there is a ramp or steps up to the ground floor and then steps to the apartment. Not suitable for the infirm or disabled.

Contras: hotel staff rude and un-responsible,providing no customer service at all.We went for them couple time on important problems(transport,air conditioning etc),they shut door at our face said they need private time.no TV in the room,but booking says it has.120km from the airport,not 73.4 km as said on booking.hotel is placed in very small town,very inconveience transport.taxi to airport costs 90euros.

Prós: the location is very good.

Contras: The owners will not treat customers really well. They called us crazy people, and we have never been treated or called like this before.

Prós: very quiet
