Pinelopi Hotel

I stayed in these apartments for two weeks at the beginning of June this year. I had never stayed here before but, as a regular visitor to Platanes, I had seen them in passing and thought they looked lovely. Best decision I ever made. The apartments are quite basic but spotlessly clean, and quite roomy. The owner, Maria, and the staff are so friendly and accommodating. The pool is amazing and again, spotlessly clean. The cleaning lady was fab, between her broken English and my broken Greek we got along nicely, she supplied me with an iron and anything else I asked for, very impressed. It was very quiet when I was there as it was the beginning of the season, but that suited me, I needed a rest, and I got it. The location could not be more perfect. When you go out of the apartments, turn left and you are two minutes walk from the beach, turn right and you are two minutes walk to get to the supermarket, bars, restaurants, shops, taxi rank, car hire, bus stop, cash points etc. You honestly couldn't ask for more. There is also a hairdressing salon on your way to the shops, I would recommend her too, she does hair for men and women. The apartment was lovely, I was on my own so it was perfect for me. The water pressure in the shower was excellent (had to mention that!) There are ample pots, pans, dishes and cutlery if you want to cook, lovely little fridge, the wi-fi is great honestly couldn't have wanted more. Would recommend these apartments to anyone, would not hesitate to book again.

The apartments are in a good quiet location in Platanias, very close to the beach and many restaurants. A bus stop is near by with a regular service to Rethymno. The apartments themselves fairly basic in terms of kitchen space and equipment but exceptionally clean . Surprisingly although not advertised breakfast is included! There is a wide selection and the coffee is very good. Nadia was very helpful.
