Boasting a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, shared lounge, garden and free WiFi, KYMANI Boutique Hotel & Suites is set in Plakias, 200 metres from Plakias. This 3-star hotel offers a concierge service....

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.

    Take a side trip to visit Kourtaliotiko Gorge.

    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. 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 good place to have a rest moving from Imbras Gorge to Kourtaliotiko gorge, city is small and quite. Beaches in city itself not seems are extraordinary, they have many rocks, but on the left end is there a nudist beach

    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!

    Place has amazing location, but do not expect night life,...

    Place has amazing location, but do not expect night life, for that you have to go to Plakias, Damnoni (across the rock, great views) or drive to Rethymnon. Service and meals are great, staff very kind, willing and helpful, always aiming to help, direct, support. Swimming in private pools or in purely clean sea with private beach (no sand, rocky beach, but you can jump from very high cliffs). Hotel also invites oriental dancers, who were just excellent and greek dancers. Someone says - rooms are shubby, but everything is made from solid wood, comfy, only bathrooms a bit small, but sufficient. Place suits to all types of travellers- you want to rest, doing nothing, you can. You want to travel around, you can even go to Santorini by jetboat. We recomment the place definitely.

    George the owner was extremely friendly and helpful and welcomed us when we arrived. George explained us how to operate the different facilities and provided us with nice refreshments. Pantelis the contact person for the reservation was helpful, gentle and kind. Both are extremely helpful and friendly. We stayed in villa Toulipa. Increteblue is a complex of several accommodations some offering pools and some offering Jacuzzi's. The location is very good, close to the beach and all the stores but relatively quiet and peaceful.

    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!

    The appartments are clean, comfortable, well equipped and very cozy. The pool is nice like on the pictures, but not very deep, so it s more for relaxing than swimming, but the sea is really wonderful at Plakias and the surrounding beaches. If you have breakfast you have to go to the hotel, about 10 minutes to walk or you go by car, if you don t want to walk. Breakfast was really tasty. I can recommend this accomodation; if you have a car it s perfect to come around everywhere.

    The host is super friendly, and always there. Location is hard to beat, in the very center of Plakias. If you are there for partying in Plakias or for excursions, this lace is great. Plenty of parking space around. It is not a 5* hotel, but a charming (in a simple way) place to spend the nights. If you are there for the beach, this is probably not a place for you - although the beach is very close, it is on the other side of the road.

    The appartment is fantastic with a large terrace in the center of Plakias. It has large beds with comfortable mattresses. The shower room is also spacious compared to the default ones. The kitchen unit has pretty much everything you need. We also liked the proximity to the various beaches and got good hints from the nice host where to dine etc. Parking a car is not a problem and it is for free and there are supermarkets close by.

    Our stay at Plakias Bay Hotel was truly great. The host and all the employees treated us with great kindness. The breakfast was delicious, including a variety of mostly vegetarian spreads and cretan cheeses. From our balcony, we had a beautiful view of the whole bay. In 25 minutes, we could walk to the city centre with all the restaurants or in the other direction: to Damnoni Beach.

    This small family run hotel is at a great location, very close to Damioni and Ammoudaki beaches, which are our favourite in the area. The hotel has everything you need, it’s clean and the beds are super comfortable. Above all, we loved the hospitality of Katerina and Fotis- very nice hosts and gave us great tips of where to eat and relax. We would definitely recommend this place!

    I've stayed in this hotel several times before, in both the older and newer parts of the building, and I'd recommend both. The deluxe rooms are my favourite, and very luxurious. The owner is lovely, and very helpful with any questions we had during our stay. Location is perfect for exploring Plakias. 10/10 will definitely be back again.

    It’s situated on the hill top with an amazing view of the beach. We could walk to the beach and have a drink at the nearby cafe/bars. It had a super cold mini-fridge for our water. 👍 The breakfast buffet was quite good with a nice seating area. The manager was very welcoming and let us borrow beach towels.
