Daphnis Villas

A short stroll from Maleme, Gerani and a private beach strip in Platanias, Crete — about 200 m from the sand and 15–20 minutes west of Chania. This family-friendly villa complex sits between mountain and sea, with easy access to Agia Marina and Platanias beaches and Ioannis Daskalogiannis Airport ~35.7 km away.

Daphnis Villas is a small complex of four duplex villas (Chloe, Ioli, Fedra and Danae) built around a 96 m² central pool. Each 110 m² villa sleeps six and offers two bathrooms, a kitchenette or full kitchen with fridge/freezer and oven, microwave and coffee/tea maker, air conditioning, safe and a 32" satellite TV. Expect private furnished patios or balconies with mountain and sea views. Cleaning and linen/towel changes are provided during your stay; note the property closes between November 1 and March 31 and reception has limited hours.

Dive into the big central outdoor pool (plus a children’s pool), unwind in the sauna or steam bath, or hit the on‑site gym. Kids get a playground and ping‑pong; everyone gets barbecue grills, tour/ticket assistance and free Wi‑Fi across the grounds. Onsite parking is free and luggage storage with express check‑in/check‑out keeps arrivals simple. Wake up to sea‑breeze mornings and poolside views.
