Effi Apartments  

Set right on Platanias' sandy front — steps from Platanias Beach and minutes from Platanias Square. Agia Marina Beach is about a 13‑minute walk; Stalos and Máleme are a short drive away. Ioannis Daskalogiannis Airport (CHQ) is roughly 31 km from the property.

A compact beachfront guesthouse with self-catering units that offer garden or Cretan Sea views. Ten air-conditioned studios and apartments feature kitchenettes (refrigerator and stovetop), private furnished balconies, flat-screen TVs, in-room safes and daily housekeeping. Simple, local-leaning décor and terrace spaces that catch the sea breeze.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi, bicycles to rent, a garden and terrace, and a picnic area. Free self parking on site, a nearby bus stop and taxi rank, and dive-club access close by. A roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and step straight onto the sand.

Luggage storage, laundry and ironing services, and a safe-deposit box at the front desk. Front desk staffed during limited hours; free self parking and optional airport transfer simplify arrivals and departures.

Self-catering kitchenettes let you cook fresh local Cretan produce. Breakfast is available for a fee, and supermarkets plus local tavernas are a short stroll away for authentic island flavors.
