Galini Apartments, hotel in Plakias

Overlooking Plakias Bay, Galini offers self-catering studios and apartments with Libyan Sea and mountain views. It has a garden with playground and provides free Wi-Fi access throughout.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The lady who owns the apartments is really friendly and kind. She left us some lovely treats including her family's olive oil. The apartment is small but has everything you need to cook a meal, space to relax outside and we even did our remote work from here for a week. The wifi was good as well.

    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 property manager was very responsive, staff were very friendly. They clean the room every day. The room had a beautiful view and I loved that the room had a kitchen area and cooking utensils. Parking was easy, it was very close to the beach and the main Plakias town area. Each room has a balcony, but only half face the water, so it's a gamble if you'll get a good view or not.

    What a beautiful, newly built hotel in boho-design, and it’s exactly like on pictures - super authentic and cozy! It’s in the quiet area of Plakias and only a few minutes from the beach and restaurants. Great host with lots of great suggestions on places to visit! Definitely a top spot when traveling around that side of the island. 10/10 and totally recommended to stay!

    We stayed for one night as part of a tour of Crete. Nice, clean, spacious and comfortable room in hotel less than 100m from Plakias seafront. Private parking just up the road. Friendly and welcoming. Good breakfast buffet served in courtyard with real Cretan pastries. Easy to find – up side street just as you reach the seafront coming from the West.
