Villa Portokalia Platanias is located on the western side of Crete, with close links to the main town, Chania. This ancient town with its cobbled streets, and harbour front lined with bars and restaurants is a popular choice for those looking to explore this side of the island. If you look closely, you may even spot one of the regular sea turtles that bob about in the marina. This ancient port was the hub of the trading scene thousands of years ago, and today still retains its historic charm. Alternatively, spend lazy days poolside and relax on one of the reclining sun loungers, whilst topping up your tan. Surrounded by a soft evergreen lawn, this garden terrace oozes relaxation. With two bedrooms and bathrooms, this quaint villa is ideal for up to four guests. An open-plan living room and kitchen creates a warm and welcoming space for both entertaining and chilling. IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Please note this property contains internal horizontal railings (ladder effect). Please ensure children do not climb and remain supervised at all times.

The vast, rugged region of Chania in western Crete offers so much diversity and culture, history and adventure, beautiful landscapes, crystal clear waters and divine beaches. A holiday here will want you returning again and again! The municipality has an area of 350 square kilometres of beautiful scenery, mountain villages and some of the best beaches in all of the Greek Islands and the Mediterranean, including the renowned Elafonissi Beach with its peculiar yet picturesque pink sand. Our villas in Chania provide the opportunity to explore perhaps Crete’s most beautiful region, with ancient architecture and jaw-dropping Gorges all waiting to be discovered. If you’re looking for an ‘off the beaten track’ kind of holiday, then our Chania villa rentals will provide the perfect base to do so, in the perfect location.
