    nice pool

    Couple's getaway, nice vibes

    The hotel was clean and fresh, with a great pool area to relax! The room had a nice balcony overlooking the pool which was perfect for grabbing a cold drink after swimming.

    It wasn't cheap, but still acceptable.

    Loved the spacious beautiful studio with a private jacuzzi. The two pools were also a hit for some family fun. Local dining options like Waves Restaurant were great!

    garden view
    sun beds availability
    location near beach
    outdated room amenities

    pleasant stay with room for improvement

    The garden view from our studio was refreshing, bringing a natural touch to our mornings. The location near the beach allowed for wonderful sunset walks. We appreciated the leisure of not rushing for sun beds, as they were always available.

    Our studio lacked some modern amenities, which affected the overall comfort.

    spacious room
    braw breakfast
    extra charges

    We really loved the spacious room with a cracking view of the pool and sea, perfect for relaxing. The breakfast was braw, with local options like feta and olives. Just a wee downside was having to pay extra for air conditioning.

    The Marika Hotel in Platanias, Crete was great in every way. The breakfast spread was fantastic with a wide variety of delicious options. The staff were helpful and were really good too ensure our stay was enjoyable. Our room, overlooking the pool and with a amazing sea view, wassuper clean and cozy. The hotel's location was perfect, being close to shops and restaurants yet still peaceful. We will definitely be returning next year.

    Nothing, all great.
