Eliros Studios

My family and I visited Eliros for 1 week. Before arrival we had a great communication with Maria, the owner of the place. Eliros is a wonderfull place 10 minutes walk from the main road/beach front of Plantanias. A fantastisc view from the balcony of our room/pool area. Cleaning was very good. Maria was a perfect and lovley host and made us feel very welcome. We will recommend everybody to visit this great place.

A family-owned hotel is superb for all who prefer privacy and excellent sea view and do not mind a 10-minute walk up from the sea. The studios are simple but perfectly clean and equipped with everything necessary, and the pool is excellent for swimming and jumping. It is the perfect base for discovering Chania and the western part of Crete, including icons such as Samaria Gorge or Elafonisia Beach.

The Eliros Studios are a joy to stay at for a relaxing Holiday, the views from our Terrace were the best we've ever experienced in any of our trips abroad. The rooms are basic but clean, and have everything you need for your holiday, the shower is a bit on the small side, but is perfectly useable. The room we stayed in had its own wifi router, and the signal was pretty good. The pool is large, considering the size of the property, and is clean and well looked after. watching the sunsets from our ground floor terrace was lovely. Maria and her family are wonderful,and work hard from early morning till late evening, Maria especially is amazing, nothing is too much trouble for her, and she is always available for advise on local sights to see, and any information regarding bus times an so forth, she was lovely to us at all times, and even had a smile on her face, when we rang her at 10.30pm, to tell her we had locked ourselves out of our room, and she had to come back to let us in. the walk into Town is about 10 to 15 minutes, down a fairly steep road, going down is easy, but coming back up can be a bit of an ordeal, especially in the recent heatwave, most of the other guests had hired cars, and I would recommend this if your not as fit as we are. The Beach is good at Stalos, and you can use the sun beds in most bars for free, as long as you buy drinks or food from them, the buses run regularly and are cheap, to neighbouring towns like Aghia Marina, or Platanias, and its about fifteen minutes to Chania, in the other direction, which is absolutely beautiful, and definitely worth a visit. all in all, we had a fantastic holiday at the Eliros studios, and would definitely return, and recommend to friends and family.

Nice people, clean apartment and a good location
