Fantastisk frukost i vacker miljö. Trevlig personal över lag. Det regnade dock in i restaurangen och i hissarna. Hotellrummen hade undermåliga förvaringsmöjligheter och belysning. Vi hade bokat 3 st deluxe-rum (en hel vecka för en halv förmögenhet) med garden view men två av rummen hade utsikt mot en parkeringsplats. Kylskåpet gick inte att reglera så all dryck inkl burkar frös till is. Personalen trevlig men ett 5-stjärnigt hotell är det definitivt inte.
Great room overlooking the beach, breakfast was very good, pool area was nice, Sparkling Spa was great. We arrived very late and went to the sister property where we waited half an hour only to learn we were at the wrong place - so be cautious as they have three adjacent properties. Loved the kid-free existence.
We stayed here for only a few nights on our honeymoon and we were very happy with how clean and friendly the staff was! We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend it to everyone!
Just coming to the end of a wonderful stay at Porto platanias luxury , everything about our stay from start ( unexpected upgrade ) to finish was lovely . Special thank you to Penelopi on reception who went above and beyond even arranging doctors appointment for my so. . Will definitely be back
Friendly and very helpful staff. Our sons shared a room in which the air conditioning was ineffective and it was very b hot. Altho we mentioned it to the staff, nothing was done to rectify the situation.
The hotel was absolutely perfect including the restaurant, facilities, pool, Beach, location, staff and cleaning.
Be advised, Expedia customers. As of 8/10/25, Expedias site incorrectly omitted the fact that this resort is adults only. Other travel sites and the hotel itself are more clears The Porto hotel conglomerate has a family friendly place where we got stuck last minute but it’s not on the beach. It’s a very busy strip and not very relaxing outside of the properties.
The place was great. The people at the front desk, bell staff and housekeeping were the best and most helpful. Our stay was near the end of the season so the restaurant was understaffed and a little slow. On the other hand there are so many great places to eat within short walking distance it didn't really matter. Highly recommended. Next time I will split time between here and old Chania.
Super nice hotel and situation when you need relaxing time during your holidays, i recommend!
Super hotel lever op til 5stjerner hjælpsomme til morgenmad kanon morgenmad kort afstand liv og restaurant og butikker
Stayed here for 6 nights with two friends. Had a room with two single beds and a sofa bed in a separate living room. Large balcony, nice and spacious bathroom, and good comfort and standard throughout the hotel. Nice facilities: great child-free beach, pool area, good breakfast, gym, and more. Very friendly and helpful staff. I would recommend staying here.
I’ve travel alot, but this hotel gave me the best hotel experience ever. I have nothing to complain about!
Amazing hotel, great location, on the beach.
Var her for 2. gang. Alt er helt utmerket. En spesiell takk til Dora i resepsjonen som var meget imøtekommende.
I was impressed with the condition and cleanliness of the facility. The staff was friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. We purchased the breakfast and dinner package and was very happy with the choices, quality and quantity of the food every day. I highly recommend the Porto Platanias Beach Hotel!
A perfect place for our family reunion!
alarm went on in the middle of the night. several times.
Realy nice and clean hotel, but they sre struggling with giving the rooms you have ordered.
We loved this hotel! The pools, rooms, and staff were amazing. We will be back, thank you!
Excellent experience during my stay at Chania.
Séjour à l’hôtel parfait. Personnel très gentil, nourriture excellente!!! Très bel hôtel très propre et idéalement situé. 10/10!
La struttura non può considerarsi un cinque stelle. Diciamo che credo sia più un 3-4 stelle complessivamente. Camere strutturate in modo strano, non c’è la presa per la corrente in bagno, manco il porta asciugamani. Bisogna lottare per la stanza all’inizio con la reception, in quanto cercano di piazzarti in stanze minuscole o infognate. Buffet poco più che decente, sinceramente ero abituato a molto meglio, in quanto c’è poca roba e spesso sempre la stessa. Mare molto limpido e pulito davanti all’hotel, con tre file di ombrelloni. Attenzione che però gran parte dell’ingresso in acqua ha roccia. Piscina piccolina e strutturata male, in quanto al pomeriggio 3/4 della stessa è all’ombra. Servizio al ristorante discreto, anche se un po’ confusionario. Bellissima però la vista mare mentre si mangia. Complessivamente diciamo una permanenza decorosa, anche se le aspettative dovevano essere altre in un 5 stelle.
Quite small room. We had a partial sea view room, but could hardly see the sea. The view was to the pool so no point in paying extra for the "sea" view. The room and hotel over all was very clean and tidy.
The hotel is in an excellent location. The rooms were cleaned every day. Very modern. Our room was a few steps from the pool area. It was great. The restaurant was overlooking the sea and we had amazing breakfast every day. There are restaurants, cafes, supermarket in walking distance. We rented a car because we wanted to visit other parts of Crete. I highly recommend this hotel!
Excelente ubicación, lado de la playa, muy tranquilo, habitación amplia, rico desayuno, Ideal para descansar, para regresar.
La struttura è innegabilmente bella ma sicuramente non ai livelli di un resort a 5 stelle. Camere top ma la spiaggia riservata non è un granché e presenta svariati punti rocciosi abbastanza pericolosi. Servizi inclusi palestra e piscina, tutti gli altri, come la spa, sono a pagamento. Nel complesso siamo stati bene (eravamo in 5) ma le nostre aspettative erano assolutamente più alte. Di luxury purtroppo c’è poco.
Very convenient
Kan varmt rekommendera detta hotell. Fantastisk personal och mycket hjälpsamma. Stranden låg intill hotellet och nära till busshållplatsen.
A great vacation in a wonderful hotel!!!! The room was amazing with sea view, very clean and comport. The staff was great.
Lovely place to stay . Great staff . Shops nearby .
Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja erittäin siisti hotelli.
Stavros and Natalia @ the front desk were amazingly helpful and kind. George at the bar makes a good drink and is very nice. Hotel was clean and well kept. Beach area is small and rocky but that is common in Greece. Breakfast is very good but confusing at first. No real “order” to things, just jump right in. Closer to a US 4 star than a 5 but very nice experience. Would go again. Only recommendation is for them to add a cocktail waiter at the pool.
Breakfast was the best we had in Greece! Stavros was incredibly helpful in helping us with our excursions. S
Das Essen im Hotel Restaurant war sehr gut. Grosse Auswahlmöglichkeiten an Getränken für jeden Gast. Das Personal hervorragend. Wir vermissen eine Gartenanlage die wir uns vorgestellt haben. Danke
great stay, and great breakfast facilities. rooms are quite small
Personal top, Frühstück top Zimmer recht klein, Strandliegen teilweise nicht regelmäßig gesäubert
Buen acceso privado a la playa. Malo: deficiente limpieza y comida.mejorable
Great stay, nice room and comfortable bed. Amazing breakfast.The hotel suits families and couple and is on the beach. Nice restaurants around and 20 minutes to Chania.
We got in late afternoon/ evening. Was very please with the service. Upon arrival, they gave us a wet napkins to clean our hands and a glass of champagne to welcome us. Brand new hotel just build. Service was exceptional. Rooms clean and really nice. We were 3 in a room and they had 2 washrooms which was amazing. Felt like we had two rooms. A door between the two rooms Privacy.... pool was clean beach was ok. A lot of rocks. Not the nicest.. breakfast was very good. A lot of Variety . I was their for 7 days and never got bored of the food. A lot to do in the area .. a strip of restaurants, supermarkets souvenir stores etc. Very safe. Easy to get around with the local bus. The old town is amazing.
Very clean hotel, very good cleaning service. Everything is brand new since the whole hotel is renovated. Very peacefull hotel. Booked a room via hotels.com and got very nice 2 rooms with nice sea view. Nothing to complain. Breakfast was very good. First day we tried pork souvlaki for lunch and meat was like bubble gum. We never ate lunch or dinner after that in the hotel restaurant, but it did not matter since there are plenty of good restaurants near the hotel. Overall very good and quiet hotel with good location for the people who want peace.
Fantastisk sted - god service, høj standard og komfort!
The hotel is beautiful, location very good, very friendly stuff. good braekfast. wondefull vew
