Platanias Orthodox Academy of Crete Hotels

"Very humble and helpful staff, very awesome breakfast."

"Staff were all lovely, so helpful and were the highlight of the stay. Due to lack of staff being on roster we weren’t able to book the spa over the weekend. Our room was quite worn and in the bath room quite grubby. Just felt a like the place was a little run down. "

"Super nice staff. Very quite place, and there's a grocery store right across the street. However, It seemed that I was the only one guest due to the off-season"

"Amazing hotel, staff were so lovely! The food is very tastey and flavourful. The pools were abit cooler but still okay to have a swim in. The rooms are amazing, the staff upgraded us and we had our own plunge pool which was a nice bonus. The spa facilities are brilliant and the massages are amazing. Will definitely be staying here again. Thank you so much!!!!"

"The staff at Aphea Village were excellent. Nothing was to much for them to do for us. From reception to bar staff - they were amazing. I would definitely recommend as the view from the pool and the rooms were breath taking. The food from Bizous bar and variety of drinks available were amazing. We really enjoyed our stay with you. Thanks 😃"

"lovely staff! very thoughtful welcoming gifts as well as parting gifts. would highly recommend staying here!"

"We had an amazing 10-day stay at Villa Stellina!There was plenty of space for our family of six adults, with a gorgeous garden, pool and breathtaking views to enjoy. Everything was modern, spotless, and perfectly located away from the busy tourist areas. Afrata Beach, just a 10-minute drive away, offered an authentically Greek experience, and we also loved visiting Kolymbari.Stella was the perfect host—always available if needed and quick to resolve a minor issue immediately. We couldn’t have asked for more. We would love to return!"

"Everything was great. They have a very clean pool, but unfortunately, I didn't have time to use it. There is sufficient cooking equipment and a fridge available. The restaurants nearby are fantastic and within walking distance. The staff is always helpful; they provided me with printed bus schedules, taxi numbers, and advised me to rent an e-bike, which was really useful. I enjoyed my stay a lot."

"The villa, one of a group of 4, is well situated, and George, the owner, who proved to be an excellent host, lives in one. The villa is equipped to a very high standard, a welcome pack was included, and extremely well cleaned and maintained. I'd give it 5 stars, but the third bedroom is more suitable for children than adults, which might not suit a large group of adults. The beach along that stretch of coast is mostly pebble, so a pair of old trainers or beach shoes works well. Apart from that, we would very highly recommend the villa. "
