Agios Vasileios, Crete hotel rooms at the Independent

"Our stay was fantastic"

"Loved the hotel. The food was amazing. The staff were extra nice & made you feel very welcome. It was a delightful stay in Plakias"

"Amazing Stay – We Will Definitely Return! We had a wonderful time at Plakias Resort! The location is stunning, the atmosphere peaceful, and the staff very kind and helpful. Our room was clean, spacious, and perfect for a relaxing holiday. The pool area was lovely and the beach just a short walk away. The only thing we missed was some evening entertainment – we couldn’t find an entertainment team or any organized activities during our stay. Also, while the food was decent, there is room for improvement in variety and taste. Still, overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and are already looking forward to coming back!"

"Mikanos was an extremely friendly and engaging host. The breakfast was outstanding. The location is perfect i.e. about 2 minutes from the small town, not too quiet not too busy....goldilocks. One of a couple of places in the world we've been to that we'd return to"

"Ignored and Disappointed: Poor Communication by Hotel Management When we extended our stay, the hotel staff failed to inform us about a special 50% May discount. Although the manager later compensated us nicely, our experience with the hotel’s loyalty program has been extremely disappointing. Since our stay, we've made multiple attempts to register for the hotel’s loyalty membership. Despite discussing this directly with reception upon checkout (we were promised a follow-up that never came) and sending three subsequent emails, we've received no response whatsoever. It feels as though the hotel is deliberately avoiding our registration to prevent us from receiving the 10% discount on our next visit, especially concerning given their initial oversight regarding the 50% discount. We remain puzzled by this complete lack of communication from hotel management."

"Was only there one night but the views and the service were exceptional. Highly recommend!"

"Lovely location. Nice resort, though a little dated and some degree of shabbiness. But the food was generally good, service excellent, the room was nice. We enjoyed our time here and would visit again."
