Being at Crete for the ninth time I must say that I loved the hotel and everything in it. Although there was construction from the next hotel, on the moment I complained , we were given a better room in a quieter side. We really appreciated it and we are sure that as soon the construction will be completed it will be the best place on the south of Crete to reside. Close to the beach and all the great restaurants. Everywhere we went people were so friendly. We thank KYMANI for helping the experience be the best.

Fantastic location tucked away in a rocky cove. The current owners have clearly worked hard to improve on the ageing infrastructure, both in the rooms and the public areas (restaurants, pools etc.). The room was spacious, clean and quiet, though the bathroom was a bit dated.

The jewel in the crown is the most southerly lending library in Europe, most European languages held.
Of course Plakias has a nice beach, good walking around; but it has been overdeveloped these last 30y, and looks set to continue.

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 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!
The location was perfect.
- Beach(great) is 50m from the hotel
- Spectacular view on the Plakias bay and the mountains behind.
- Close to good taverns and super market
- Really beautiful nature all around the hotel
The area is less touristy comparing to Chania area in high season and more relaxing.
Very good beaches are few km away.
The hotel itself
- The staff was very helpful
- It was very clean
- Has everything necessary
- Terrace was good size with great view
- Breakfast was delicious
Definitely happy with our stay.
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.
The appartments are clean, comfortable, well equipped and very cozy. The pool is nice like on the pictures, but not very deep, so it s more for relaxing than swimming, but the sea is really wonderful at Plakias and the surrounding beaches. If you have breakfast you have to go to the hotel, about 10 minutes to walk or you go by car, if you don t want to walk. Breakfast was really tasty. I can recommend this accomodation; if you have a car it s perfect to come around everywhere.
Location, very friendly staff, amazing views.
After the initial disappointment at the basic rooms we found the location ideal. At the quiet end of the beach we enjoyed peace and quiet in our room and could enjoy the amazing views of the mountains and the sea from our balcony. The bed was very comfortable and bathroom had a great shower. The walk into town is a pleasant 15 mins - perfect after a meal at Antonio’s and a few drinks on the beach.
The appartment is fantastic with a large terrace in the center of Plakias. It has large beds with comfortable mattresses. The shower room is also spacious compared to the default ones. The kitchen unit has pretty much everything you need.
We also liked the proximity to the various beaches and got good hints from the nice host where to dine etc.
Parking a car is not a problem and it is for free and there are supermarkets close by.
It felt like new! Stylish, spacious, modern decor, well located with everything you could need. The staff were absolutely fantastic with loads of helpful suggestions for where to find great coffee, eat out, beaches to visit etc. The location was easy walking distance to the beach, cafes, bars, shops, restaurants etc. We highly recommend and will definitely book again if we ever come back to Plakias.
This small family run hotel is at a great location, very close to Damioni and Ammoudaki beaches, which are our favourite in the area. The hotel has everything you need, it’s clean and the beds are super comfortable. Above all, we loved the hospitality of Katerina and Fotis- very nice hosts and gave us great tips of where to eat and relax. We would definitely recommend this place!
We had a wonderful time during our stay at Cyano Hotel. We arrived very late (after hours of check-in) but the staff waited for us with a cold plate full of Greek snacks. During our stay, we felt very good and well taken care of. The hotel and our room were very clean. For sure we want to come back to this hotel in the future, we had an amazing time.

Very nice hotel and high comfort apartments very well equiped with a huge terrace with sea view. We loved the service and breakfast served in the room every morning. Very friendly and helpful staff. The pool was great, it seems we had it for ourselves. Next time we go to Plakias sure we'll stay there again!
Great location. Astonishing view. Big, cosy terrace. Perfect cleanliness. Comfortable and fully equipped with great attention to detail. Great location to explore South Western Crete. The host was friendly and helped in any way when needed.
Everything! The location was steps from the beach. The suite was immaculate, with a wrap around terrace. Elenie is a wonderful host and was so accommodating and attentive. Would stay there again in a second!
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.
Right next to the beach, lots of parking food options and shipping for groceries nearby. The rooms have lots of light and air and gentle water lapping in the night soothes to sleep.
