About this property

OLOUS: Spacy 1 Studio Plaka Beach Cottage

400 sqft Studio with integrated kitchen and separate bathroom, large double bed and extra sofabed, seaview, private gazebo and private sunbathing terrace directly on shore. Steps to the sea. Opposit the famous island fortress of Spinalonga. Free Wifi


50 ft. from the waterline a small flock of three separated cottages on a beautiful and safe plot of land. (Fenced) Few steps to the sea. Nicely renovated 1 studio cottages with vaulted high ceiling, ca. 400 sq.ft. (about 37 square meters), large comfortable double bed (King size), separate sofa/bed, view to the sea, inside and outside eating area, built in kitchen, separate windowed bathroom with marble tiling, Shower, sink, toilet. Free 24/7 wifi and satelite TV (Astra). Studio room has full A/C. Private outside Gazebos with table and chairs, with unobstructed view to the sea. Private sunbathing terrace with your own sunbeds, BBQ directly on the beach. It would be hard to be closer to the sea or in a more relaxing spot with the soft sound of the waves around you. And it would be hard to find such a safe location far away from the big cities but still in short walking distance (ca. 650 ft, ca. 200m) of a friendly little fishing village with many original tavernas and cafes. A bus stop close.
A unique location directly on a beach with few steps down to the sea.

You will have your private studio with seaview, a private outside area that is separated from the 2 other cottages with tall natural stone walls. Your outside area has an esting place, shade by a pergola as well as a private sunbathing platform with seaview. A private brick barbecue is around the corner.

You have an english and greek speaking host that lives a few miles away. she can organise for you e.g a rental car and is there for you regularly.

The cottages are located ca 100 meters from Plaka village, just a short walk along or behind Plaka Beach. Plaka has many taverns and cafés as well as a beach bar. On very rare occasions (2-3 times during the whole summer season) there is life music in one of the restaurants or beach bar that can be heard over the bay also in the cottages. It usually stops at 23.00

Please note that from 2024 on the greek government requires all guests of Villassmaller than 80 m2 to pay an environmental fee of 1.5€ per property and night during your stay in summer season. (eg. 4.5 € for 3 nights). Please pay this either by Credit card or in cash to our host on Crete after your arrival and we will forward it directly to the authorities.
