Все было великолепно. Расположение квартиры отличное, рядом множество хороших кафе, ресторанов и магазинов. Апартаменты расположены на 2 этаже, огромный балкон, вид потрясающий. Управляющий замечательный, всегда готовый помочь и проконсультировать, очень внимательный и вежливый. По утрам свежевыжатый апельсиновый сок! Пляж прямо внизу, лежаки и зонтики бесплатно, море супер. Очень рекомендую это место!

Demetrius is a wonderful host and very helpful in all ways. Fantastic location and virtually on the beach. At night you can hear a pin drop apart from the waves lapping on the shore and yet we are only 4 minutes walk to the bakery and Coffee shop and access to restaurants and bars to suit all tastes.

very good location, very clean and very comfortable rooms!
Dimitri is the best host i ever met! very precious and correct advices and recommendations!
He offered us free fresh orange juice, in the fridge we found water and a good bottle of wine!
The pictures are exactly like in reality, so you will not have any bad surprises. Like he said: “nothing less, nothing more”!
if all the hosts would be like Dimitri, we all will be happy to travel, without worries!
Very quiet, tavernas and supermarkets very close, free parking, beach in the front of the hotel!
so, what else would you want for a perfect location for your holiday?
thank you again, Dimitri, for helping us to have a perfect vacation!

Perfect location, right on the beach. Superb view from the spacious terrace. Well equipped kitchen, huge, brand new fridge, 2 bathrooms, convenient for the family. Dimitris is the best host ever, gave us very useful tips on car rent, restaurants and places to visit, even refreshment, always around to turn to. Bakery, restaurants, shops, water sport activities, fun park for kids are in a few steps away.

Location and owner/host, wine and 3 bottles of water offered for free.
Photos are cropped for the bathroom and shower and create a false impression of the actual space, which is smaller. No windows in bathroom or shower. Nothing to place your soap or shower gel, need to leave them on the floor. Small changes would have made a difference. No cupboards, only a hanger and a big drawer for all the clothes. The apartment was cleaned twice and the towels were changed twice during a 7 day stay. I find the price (800 Euro) expensive for the offered amenities.

We have been in Greece several times before but we’ve never had such a great experience like this. The location was great and the apartment was awesome. It was very clean and comfortable. Dimitris (the owner) was the BEST and he made us fresh orange juice every day. He made sure we had a great time there and was always ready to give us some advice where to go to eat or what beach we should check out. The beach was super nice, we could always use Dimitris’ sunbeds and umbrellas. We are ready to go back!!!

We had a wonderful stay at Aetheras beach.
What we like the most is that the hotel is right on the beach.
Dimitris is a great host, who offers you an impeccable service and fresh orange juice every morning.
You can really feel like being at home.
He will recommend you the best places for food and what is worth to visit in Crete.
Therefore it is a perfect place where you can feel the real Cretan hospitality.
All the necessary infrastructure is around the corner, a very nice bakery, supermarkets, cosy tavernas.
The room with the modern design is very clean and perfectly maintained, it has everything you need, and you can have your coffee on a terrace with a sea view.
Moreover, the area is very calm without noisy bars and etc.
So you really can enjoy the sound of the sea.
We are very happy with our stay at Aetheras beach and had beautiful vacation in Crete.
We would definitely recommend you Aetheras beach for your amazing vacation.
We are completely satisfied!

If by chance you are visiting Crete, book your stay with Aetheras Beach! Crete has nothing but the best of everything, from world famous beaches and history! The location of the hotel was perfect, everything was near, and Chania town was only a fun 15 minute drive!
The room itself was perfect! with an amazing view of the beach, which is only 20 steps away, and those sunrise walk on the beach is a must. Not only that, the room itself was so comfy and clean, it made our stay even better, we had our own little balcony and a rack to put our wet clothes to dry. The beds were fantastic and the bathroom was perfectly renovated with a walk in shower!
But what made our stay even better was the host, he made sure our stay was perfect form the get-go, he arranged a taxi to pick us up from the airport and also a taxi to go back to the airport at the end of our stay. He was helpful throughout our whole stay and also suggesting where to go on each day! His freshly squeezed orange juice that he makes for every guest each morning while we stare at the beach is just an amazing vibe.
The cleaning lady and the host are spectacular, making sure our room is clean on a daily basis and our experience top notch. Nothing but positive things to say about our stay and hotel. Definitely not the last time we are staying at Aetheras Beach! Crete is magical ...

Before the trip I was looking for a quiet place in the 1st line by the sea. But in Aetheras Beach I’ve found much more: cozy, quiet, modern (comfortable bed, kichenette with all needed equipment, perfect wifi, A/C, etc.), nice place & apartments created with care & love, just a few meters from the sandy beach.
Thank you to the host Dimitris for the warm welcome with orange juice (and everyday orange juice), hospitality, free sunbeds and letting know that he is always around if some questions. It was very kind.
I travel a lot, but it was the first time I have found a place which doesn’t have written house rules or instructions posted in the room. It creates a feeling like being at Home, where your stay is based on communication and trust.
There is beautiful nature around, sunrises, sunsets and a sky full of stars over the sea - can be watched from the room/sitting on the terrace/by the sea. I liked that there are no rows of sunbeds on the beach in front of apartments, everyone can choose where they want to set up their sunbeds.
The local bakery, main street, bus to Chania or Kissamos etc. just a hundred meters away.
I could write more nice things about this place, but better I would wish to everyone to stay there and to experience it by yourself.
Thank you so much for possibility to stay in Aetheras beach & for the best experiences. Someday I'd like to back.
Best wishes!

We strongly recommend this little hotel by Agia Marina beach, with a very service oriented private owner. The room had air cond, refridgerator and very comfortable soft beds, like a 5 star hotel.
Perfect, if you want good user value for the money, if you like to swim in the sea 50 m in front of the hotel, don't need swimming pool, gym and 24 hour reception.
Very good breakfast buffe is available for € 8/p in near by restaurant on the beach.
You also benefit a very motivated private owner, who has been struggeling and succeded to keep his small hotel during the Covid 19 pandemic!
Kind regards, Eva & Håkan from Sweden 🌞🍓🍹😃🇸🇪

We look for the place to be memorable. This is why we avoid generic 5-star hotels with pools and animal-shaped towels. We chose this place, because we were looking for a good story, and we we were rewarded to get both -- a memorable story and an extremely comfortable place to stay in. We found out from other comments that this hotel is run by a young Greek person, and that its his start up business and lifestyle that he is 100% emotionally invested into. This made us book the room here.
The hotel is new, the room planning and the facilities are ultra modern, on par with best properties we have in Canada. The room is equipped with a full-blown kitchenette, fridge, oven, teapot. The balcony provided a decent view of the garden and the sea.
The hotel is 1st line, with its private beach, yet the beach is a couple miles long and you are free to swim anywhere. The beach is great for sunbathing and swimming, with a picturesque island and both sunrise and sunset over the sea. There are dozens of places around to eat amazing Greek food at, and The Olive Tree next to the hotel was pretty good if we were not in the mood for long walks to other places. The buses going to Chania are just a couple of euros and you can get there by taxi for 15 euros. Samaria gorge, Elafonisis beach and Balos are all accessible from this place in a matter of hour.
Though the most warm memory about this hotel was its owner. Dimitris, a mastermind of hospitality worth of the legacy of Greek philosophers, was the perfect host we could have asked for. Extremely friendly and helpful, he was that human face that we were looking for when booking this place. We felt as VIP guests and at the same time good old friends of his. We decided that next time we go to Crete, we will stay at his wonderful hotel again.

Location of the appartments was excelent: walking distance to both Agia Marina and Platanias center, right on the beach. Good entrance into the sea, sunbeds are free for guests.
Big roof top terrace with nice views both sea and mountains. Enjoyed spending time there with glass of orange juice provided by the host. Juice was one of the best I have tried.
From inside facilities liked shower.
Would happily return to this place again.
We liked the appartments, however there are few things that could be improved:
- it would be good to update the mattresses. They were a little bumpy in the room we used
- sofa on the second floor looked dusty and not inviting.

Superb location. Very good beach. Super friendly owner. We had fresh orange juice every morning made by Dmitris from the oranges picked from his family's garden. Even the last day of our stay he woke up at 6a.m. just to make juice for us and to say good bye. We will definetely return. 11/10

We (4 person) spent a fantastic week at Aetheras Beach. The apartment (two-storeyed) was perfectly comfortable and absolutely clean (the cleaning lady is coming every day if needed). First to mention, the stunning view to the sea and an island nearby, we had our breakfasts at the balcony on the roof with this view. We also had private sunbeds there. Plenty of shops and excellent restaurants in few meters, and there is a bakery next to the building. The beach is connecting to the accomodation with its own beach umbrella and beds. But the most excellent was the host, Dimitris. He was waiting for us when we arrived, and show the privat parking place of the building, then let us in to the apartment. During the week he was always available if we needed help. On the first day he gave us a list with details about the worth watching places of Crete, and about the good reastaurants near the apartment. When we spent our day at the beach, ha was waiting for us with fresh cold orange juice made by him. He was perfectly friendly and helpful, nobody can wish a better host. :) Last but not least, you can reach many Cretan place of interests from here.
There wasn’t any.

Dimitris (the host) is very friendly and an easygoing person. He gives you good tips for sightseeing, resturants and surrondings. Just ask him, he is always available.
The hotel is located in a quiet place and just a few steps from the beach. The room is super clean and furnished with almost whatever you need. Wifi is strong enough to Teams, skype and other communication platforms, you can simply work from the room and beach. By the way, don't miss Dimitris's fresh organic orange juice every morning.
I wish we could stay more! hopefully next time

It was super comfy and got a great view toward the sea. Dimitris, the host, was very friendly bringing us every morning fresh orange juice to have a power boost over the day. We definitely recommend the location!

Things that we liked most were close distance to the beach and a peaceful location at our stay. Near to Chania, Platania is a good starting point to explore the western part of Crete. Also our host Dimitris was very helpful with his tips, which things to explore first, and huge support when something went wrong. We still miss the tasteful orange juice, prepared from oranges from his own garden!
Because of all the restrictions and struggling time for restaurant and property owners, in average each second to third restaurant was closed!
