Being at Crete for the ninth time I must say that I loved the hotel and everything in it. Although there was construction from the next hotel, on the moment I complained , we were given a better room in a quieter side. We really appreciated it and we are sure that as soon the construction will be completed it will be the best place on the south of Crete to reside. Close to the beach and all the great restaurants. Everywhere we went people were so friendly. We thank KYMANI for helping the experience be the best.

The staff were great. Looked after us very well, extremely helpful. We had a late arrival flight, outside normal reception hours. This wasn't an issue, and they stored the key in a safe place, which we found on our arrival. The double room with ocean view was lovely, clean, and everything you needed. Showers are always hot when you need them. Cleaning staff cleaned our room every day while we was at breakfast and provided fresh towels. Plakias itself is lovely and there are lots of restaurants and shops. We eat out most nights. Spoilt for choose.

The jewel in the crown is the most southerly lending library in Europe, most European languages held.
Of course Plakias has a nice beach, good walking around; but it has been overdeveloped these last 30y, and looks set to continue.

Take a side trip to visit Kourtaliotiko Gorge. There is a trail in the gorge, but we didn't have time for that. So we stopped along the road above and followed the path passed the Church of Saint Nicholas down to a beautiful view of the waterfall.

Quiet place in November, but sea temperature was super nice.
Quiet place in November, but sea temperature was super nice. Supermarkets are open, as well as some restaurants. There was a lot of construction going on. Many tavernas close to attractions are closed, so take plenty of snacks.

Plakias is a smallish town and very laid back and relaxing.
Plakias is a smallish town and very laid back and relaxing. As we were half board we didn't try many of the bars/restaurants on offer. We were going to go on a boat trip but one of our daughters was ill so we had to abandon that idea. My other daughter and I did visit Kourtaliotiko Gorge and waterfall which was amazing and we made it to Souda beach on the last day which had lovely clear water. We had a car so we could travel around. I personally think that is an essential if you want to explore the area as it takes a while to drive anywhere as the roads are quite small and bendy!
The location was perfect.
- Beach(great) is 50m from the hotel
- Spectacular view on the Plakias bay and the mountains behind.
- Close to good taverns and super market
- Really beautiful nature all around the hotel
The area is less touristy comparing to Chania area in high season and more relaxing.
Very good beaches are few km away.
The hotel itself
- The staff was very helpful
- It was very clean
- Has everything necessary
- Terrace was good size with great view
- Breakfast was delicious
Definitely happy with our stay.
We just got the smallest room category because everything was sold out, but it turned out that also this rooms are really beautiful with a perfect view from the little private balcony. For this price, we never got something this nice. The house is perfectly clean and the garden is so nice. The walking distance are very good for persons who like to stay a bit outside (max. 10 minutes walk to the main beach, but just 3 minutes to the nearest beach and a very nice restaurant). We can highly recommend this beautiful hotel.
The town is small and cosy, and there are nice places to visit around Plakias during the day.
We were in room 117 with a beautiful view of the garden and mounatins.
What we loved about the hotel: the central location, the open and nice view, the very clean and modern room, fresh towels, delicious breakfast, and the warm welcome by Olga and her team! They provided us excellent advice and recommendations which enhanced our stay in Plakias and overall in Crete! Thank you for making our stay unique and memorable!
Great little suites right at the beach. Beautiful and clean with a small kitchenette and all utensils required. Our host met us a provided a wonderful welcome with a small bottle of Raki to enjoy on the beautiful balcony overlooking the sea. Breakfast was provided at the Blue Cafe next door. A wonderful breakfast omelette and eggs were served with good coffee! Lovely sandy beach with easy access and as a bonus a wheelchair access right into the water! We loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer.
Stefanos is a beautiful medium sized modern hotel complex, built in greek style up on the slopes overlooking Plakias Bay, with great views but quit location. Spacious apartment with all what is needed, including seaview, spacious balcony (with private hot spa), very friendly staff, good breakfast buffet and also nice infinity pool (for which it was too cold and windy during our stay, but is awesome).
We stayed 5 nights in July 2021. The villa looks brand new and is very well designed. We loved the pool and jacuzzi! The beds are very comfortable. The villa and pool were cleaned every 2 days.
The owner was very helpful, he arranged everything we needed; Great tips for exploring the neighborhood and restaurants.
We highly recommend staying at Increteblue Suites!
The hotel is very close to the beach and just far away enough from the busier "centre" of Plakias where you can find lots of restaurants and shops. There is a supermarket in the same building complex, so shopping for excursions etc. is really easy. We enjoyed the pool and the big terrace of the apartment. Breakfast was good and rich in variety.
We loved the absolutely quiet location, and nevertheless Plakias with its shops and tavernes is just a short car ride away. If you like to walk, it is about 25 Minutes to Souda Beach (which is very nice, too). There are also two very good tavernes and one beach bar there. Christina, the owner, took also very good care of us.
The location across from the beach and right in the town was great.
The staff were helpful and friendly while the room was nicely furnished and had a perfect view of the beach.
The breakfast was good and very convenient with the restaurant downstairs and open to the beach.
Parking was conveniently just around the corner.
Nice architecture & interion design, nice atmoshere, good view from the terrace, quiet place to sleep and relax. Beach is close. In general we liked Plakias - it is a wonderful place to stay for vacation. Hotel had very helpful personal, helped us with early checkout and adviced best places and restaurants for a visit
Best bed ever! And I appreciated that Elena had a nespresso machine in the room. The suite is modern, nicely designed, and comfortable. Across the street, Elena and her husband operate a beach restaurant and bar. One of the tastiest Greek salads I’ve had. Amazing hosts! They made you feel welcome.
Excellent little family hotel. Clean, comfortable, great location - just across a sandy beach at a quiet part of Plakias, but only 10 minutes walk from the town center. Great taverna on premises, and a nice bar at the beach. Very friendly stuff and management. Highly recommended!
We stayed for 10.days and loved it! Artistic, yet functional furniture, with a kitchenette, comfortable bed, bright, huge terrace and a swing. In the center of Plakias, with many restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Loved the sea view! Parking available. One of the best so far.
Nice secluded area, with plenty of restaurants and cafes within a walking distance! The staff were very sweet and helpful! Loved the barcode on the key with the recommendations for beaches and restaurants! The pool is open 24/7 which is amazing!
Best value for your money that we found on Crete. Clean pools, great ocean access, large rooms with views and good food. The facilities are dated but great value for your nightly rate. The staff are amazing very helpful and professional.
The place has an amazing view. It is at walking distance from 2 or 3 good tavernas. You can drive for 10mins and be at the beach. The host was very friendly and flexible.
