The luxury of paying less on accommodation and spending more on fun, while visiting western Crete on a budget.

Conveniently located on the edge of the historical seaside village of Maleme, Summer Lodge, an attractive, family-run vacation lodging is a fine example of traditional Greek architecture.

Just 5 Km away from the centre of Platanias and 17 km west of Chania, is the ideal starting point for visitors requiring a wide variety of sandy beaches, water sports activities, peaceful countryside walks, or interesting visits to archaeological and historical sites.

With the tremendous advantage of being no more than 400 meters by footpath to the long, quiet beach of Maleme, mostly sandy but also pebbly and several nearby taverns, as well as a supermarket and other shops, the situation couldn’t be more convenient and car hire is not essential, since public bus service is frequent.

The superb 10m x 5m pool is surrounded by sun terraces and is supplied with patio furniture and sun lounges. Beyond the pool and shaded by trees and a pergola, is a terrace where breakfast is served any time you wish and a small bar serving cool drinks in the hot summer evenings. Personal service, relaxing atmosphere and a warm welcome await you at our family Summer Lodge, a charming property ideal for friends, families and couples, where you will always get more value for your holiday money.
