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 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 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!
The hotel exceeded our expectations! It's exactly as in the photos, very beautiful, sofisticasted decor and the room very clean, comfortable and nice. I slept like a princess there haha, what a good bed. I really enjoyed the breakfast, in which there were new options added every day. And also you could ask for a coffee or a cappuccino, they have a small coffee bar there. It's 3 mintues walking from the little center of Plakias, with many restaurants and stores.
Absolutely amazing Villa ! We stayed for a week with two kids ! We loved our stay, they are very well equipped from cooking devices to washing machine, etc - everything you need. Every morning a guy comes to clean your pool and cleaning ladies every 3 days. Very close to beach, supermarket, restaurants... We requested earlier check in and check out which was not a problem. Tonia was so friendly and helpful, thank you, one week was not long enough!
Amazing sea view from the room balcony, quiet location a bit outside of Plakias, 10min footwalk along the seaside to the town with many excellent taverns and cafes, 5min walk downhill from the hotel to the cobble stone part of the beach with very few people and great snorkeling possibilities, very friendly and helpful staff, good breakfast on a pretty terrace, small fridge and water boiler in the room.. we absolutely loved it!
You have the opportunity to have access to an amazing hotel for a cheap price. The location cannot be better, the creek is simply amazing. The pool with the bar is very nice with incredible views. The room is big and nice, and the bed very comfortable. The buffet is surprisingly good.
There's lot of cool activities.
It looks like a 5 star resort that downgraded to 4 star. It makes it very good for the price.
Such a lovely place!!! Bright, cute studio with AC and an amazing view of the sea and mountains from the balcony! The kitchen had everything one needs, there's a nice table to work. The studio was super clean and just 2 minutes away from the beach! Location is perfect for quiet stay but if you want to have fun, it's 5 minutes away.
Huge thank you to the hosts, they are very very sweet and helpful!
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!
It is a very clean and nice place. Very comfortable and very modern facilities. I recommend if you are staying at Plakias. The manager is very nice, he helps you with everything and suggest the best restaurant around. The best place for me in Crete till now.
You have everything, the kitchen has everything and you can cook and make anything you like. The view is also amazing!
Perfect location; within walking distance from cosy restaurants and the beach. Beautiful, clean room, with a nice balcony where you can relax. We would have liked to stay longer (2 nights was not enough) at Castello!
Plakias is definitely worth the visit: not too touristy, wonderful beaches within less than 10 minutes driving, and a beautiful (green) area.
I ADORED this hotel. If you visit Plakias or South Crete, this is the place to stay. Amazing staff, perfect location, great meals and they help you plan which beaches to visit, where to have unforgettable meals, everything. Giorgios, the owner, is an amazing host. I can’t recommend this place enough! I’ll surely come back.
Great Hotel in a perfect location, 2min walking to Plakias beach and the start of the village. Very clean, comfy beds, friendly staff and the breakfast was excellent! Pool was ok too and nice to have for a quick dip after breakfast and before the beach. Will definitely stay here again when I visit Plakias again.
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.
The Sofia Hotel was beautiful and a unique experience. The hotel offered tranquility, good food with a fantastically beautiful location (Plakias). We were also very welcomed by a top host (Vagelis) and other staff (family) of the hotel. Definitely highly recommended!
Stayed only for one night, because the hotel I usually stay in in Plakias was occupied this first night. It worked perfect for what I needed the stay for. The breakfast was good. And the athmosfare outdoor in the breakfast area was lovely.
Everything, if I visit Crete again i will definitely choose this hotel again.
You won't find hotel with better views and location in whole area.
Two amazing beaches are literally 2 min away by walking.
Elsa was extremely friendly and helpful. The room had been recently renovated and was very clean and comfy. All in all, it was the best accomodation during our time on Crete!
