ABOUT THE NEIGHBORHOOD

The apartment is situated in the peaceful neighborhood of Upper Platanias, the charming old village perched on a hill with a beautiful view of the area. Just a 10-minute walk down the hill, you`ll find the lively main street of Platanias, filled with restaurants, beach bars, clubs, and shops. You can also find plenty of adventures, like boat cruises, water sports, and excursions to explore the island.

The main square of Platanias is only 10 minutes from the apartment, while Chania’s city center is just 10 km away, or about a 25-minute drive.
