Villa Frati Gorge  

Tucked in Agios Vasileios near Plakias, this villa sits minutes from the dramatic Kourtaliotiko Gorge and a short drive to Spili Monastery, Preveli and Plakias beaches. It's about 87 km from Chania (CHQ) and roughly 105 km from Heraklion (HER).

A small villa with just three air-conditioned rooms, each with a kitchenette (fridge, oven, microwave) plus coffee/tea makers, flat-screen TV and a private balcony or patio. Expect garden and patio views, limited housekeeping, and a quiet, laid-back vibe that feels like your own base for exploring southern Crete.

Stay active in the 24-hour fitness center or cool off in the seasonal outdoor pool. Complimentary Wi‑Fi, a garden, picnic and BBQ area, and tour/ticket assistance round out the practical perks — perfect for easy days between hikes and beaches.

Practical on-site services include luggage storage, laundry facilities and free self parking; staff can also help arrange transfers or car rental.

Breakfast is available for a fee, rooms include coffee/tea makers, and the picnic/BBQ area makes self-catered meals simple and social.
