Very large room with private balcony. Very clean and everything I needed in the room, with a huge bed. Excellent value for money. I think everwhere was very recently painted. Bright, fresh room.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The lady who owns the apartments is really friendly and kind. She left us some lovely treats including her family's olive oil. The apartment is small but has everything you need to cook a meal, space to relax outside and we even did our remote work from here for a week. The wifi was good as well.

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!

Place has amazing location, but do not expect night life,...
Place has amazing location, but do not expect night life, for that you have to go to Plakias, Damnoni (across the rock, great views) or drive to Rethymnon. Service and meals are great, staff very kind, willing and helpful, always aiming to help, direct, support. Swimming in private pools or in purely clean sea with private beach (no sand, rocky beach, but you can jump from very high cliffs). Hotel also invites oriental dancers, who were just excellent and greek dancers. Someone says - rooms are shubby, but everything is made from solid wood, comfy, only bathrooms a bit small, but sufficient. Place suits to all types of travellers- you want to rest, doing nothing, you can. You want to travel around, you can even go to Santorini by jetboat. We recomment the place definitely.
Excellent location, very quiet regardless being right in front of the beach. A very well built house.
Very comfortable beds and pillows. The air conditioning was perfect, subtle but efficient and not noisy. The outside temperature reached 40 degrees on two days and the system worked perfectly.
I also liked the total darkness in the rooms, thanks to the good quality blackout blinds on all windows.
The garden furniture were very comfortable and well placed, providing shade in the morning and in the late afternoon.
Great little suites right at the beach. Beautiful and clean with a small kitchenette and all utensils required. Our host met us a provided a wonderful welcome with a small bottle of Raki to enjoy on the beautiful balcony overlooking the sea. Breakfast was provided at the Blue Cafe next door. A wonderful breakfast omelette and eggs were served with good coffee! Lovely sandy beach with easy access and as a bonus a wheelchair access right into the water! We loved our stay and wish we could have stayed longer.
Really great stay as a couple at NEREA. From arrival to goodbye, the staff is at your service the whole time, smiles included. Location is a bonus, if you like the beatch, beach bars, local restaurants and small beach towns, as all of that is only 20 steps away from your hotel doorstep. The hotel is perfectly up to date, clean as a whistle and has everything you need to sit back and relax, the spacious terrace not to say the least. Would recommend this for sure! Gertjan & Severine
Very good location in a quiet area at few minutes from noisy central street. Own parking lot which is very comfortable in a busy village.Very good value for money offered by the medium sized studio. Beautiful sea view from the balcony. Also nice green area in front of the building.
Interiors are kept clean. Generally all looks as South Crete shoyld keep its authentic style.
Very kind hosts that makes all their best to give their guest a pleasant stay.
We arrived late at night in the middle of a gale and left relatively early the next morning as it was a stopover point on our tour of Crete. This place was fabulous. The room was excellent for comfort and cleanliness and the people were extremely helpful. The location is a short walk from the beach and restaurants. We would definitely have liked to spend more time here and would return if we were to visit Crete again.
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!
The location on the edge of Plakias was convenient and the balcony was generous and useful, with a clothes drying rack. The host presented us with bottles of water and chocolates from the shop downstairs on arrival, a nice surprise. The was also a small carafe of complementary raki in the room, a nice traditional touch.
There was a small sand beach with beds right across the road from the hotel.
Fabulous breakfast! Gorgeous pool! Spacious room. Everything about this hotel is very nice, clean and comfortable. Yesterday the mountains were resplendent, dressed up in black clouds and a rainbow, while the beach remained sunny. Amazing. The hotel is situated on the hillside with great views, but a short walk to the city center and beach. A lively place.I will return!
The hotel is very close to the beach and just far away enough from the busier "centre" of Plakias where you can find lots of restaurants and shops. There is a supermarket in the same building complex, so shopping for excursions etc. is really easy. We enjoyed the pool and the big terrace of the apartment. Breakfast was good and rich in variety.
This hotel is a gem. The location perfect to explore the area and the beaches around.
The staff all over the hotel was so friendly and polite and makes you feel like home.
The room was spotless with very nice view to the beach and the pool of the hotel.
The breakfast and last i ate was exceptional, huge variety with well cooked food.
The accommodation is outstanding. The furniture is new and of very high quality. The rooms were invariably clean. The kitchen is modern and has all the utensils you need. The staff is very courteous and polite. The pool is very well maintained and clean. So far the best accommodation we were able to accommodate on Crete !!! Grade A +
The service was very friendly and personal. The food varied and was delicious. I especially enjoyed the offer of local entries. The location was delightful as the town was close by as was the beach. There was an exceptional feeling of friendliness. Thank you for a beautiful Crete experience.
The apartment was very spacious and clean with wonderful views over the sea and a nice beach within 3 minutes walking. Mrs Angeliki and her daughter are very sweet and hospitable people- it was really great meeting them! We will definitely come back next year!
Chara went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and unforgettable. Breakfast was amazing, rooms were good size and extremely clean and bedsheets smelled amazing. The views were great and Plakias is a very short walk. Can't wait to go back
Fantastic location overlooking the sea with great sun terrace and unforgettable sunsets. By far, my most comfortable and luxurious room in Crete. Beach in front, tavernas, cafes, etc all closeby. Breakfast area and terrace and extremely friendly hosts.
Beautiful and spacious apartament with seaview.
The weather on that week in Crete was quite terrible unfortunately, but we had a nice and cosy stay at Anemoni.
Beaches, caffe places, supermarkets nearby
Location was great , very accessible to nice beaches and hikes , was a perfect size, super clean & modern apartment & super lovely hosts . Everything was great ! Def will stay here again :)
Very well designed, brand new boutique hotel with spacious rooms and a lovely pool, surrounded by olive trees. Perfect for relaxation and for exploring the gorgeous nature around Plakias.
we liked the garden with all the different plants and colours. the appartement was very clean and the first time in crete (since 2 weeks) we got a hot shower, yeah!
