The room, featuring high ceiling for a sense of spaciousness, was very clean and comfortable, and had a balcony. The beds struck the perfect balance between comfort and support, and the air conditioning worked flawlessly. The family run hotel had a unique, relaxing vibe, and was very quiet. I felt my visit was genuinely appreciated. This isn't a place where they try to cram as many people per square meter as possible - you can truly breathe here. It completely exceeded my expectations for a three-star hotel. The breakfast was basic yet satisfying, with the Greek yogurt nicely paired with fresh fruits and honey. A special mention goes to the eggs, which came from hens raised right on the property. Aside from the relatively simple breakfast, this hotel offers a four-star experience. With only ~20 rooms, the wonderful pool is never packed with people. The large parking area is shaded in the morning, preventing the car from heating up. This place had everything I needed for my stay on Crete and served as a great base for traveling around, especially to the southern beaches which are just a 30-40 minute drive. Highly recommended.
Located in Platanes, a few steps from Platanes Beach, Atermono Boutique Resort & Spa has accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness center and a garden.

It’s great, very comfortable and convenient local. It's close to the beach, there's also a supermarket, and the hotel's facilities are very comfortable.
Also, the service attitude of the staff is very friendly and humane. They knew I was going to Samaria Gorge the next day and prepared breakfast for us that morning.

This was the second time my wife and I have been to Platanes...
This was the second time my wife and I have been to Platanes. We went for the first time a few years ago and thought it was about time we went back. We enjoyed our visit then but this visit was even better. There is a variety of accommodation available from luxury 5 stars hotels to small apartments and a great variety in between. Many residences have pools but there are golden beaches within a short distance of the main strip and many have tavernas and bars.
The main strip has many places to eat and drink and prices are very reasonable. Crete has a great cultural heritage and there are plenty of trips which can be taken.
The weather was wall to wall sunshine

Breakfast was wonderful a good selection of hot and cold options. The breakfast staff and reception team were warm smd welcoming.
The poolside bar service for both drinks and food was a slow.
The pool roof terrace was beautiful overlooking the sea.
We loved the beach bar directly in front of the hotel for lunch. Great service here and family run. Its not part of the hotel but it certainly added to our stay.
Rooms kept clean. I would say the pool towels were rather small but we had our own so not a big issue.
A wonderful hotel in a great location.

Have visited Platanes for over 20 years and still love it as much now as we did then. The locals are so warm and friendly, there are so many delightful restaurants to choose from, our favourite being The White Lady. It’s a 10 min taxi to Rethymno for shopping so ideally situated

The resort was big enough to offer good choices but not so big that it was impersonal. The beach is sandy but at the shore line there are small stones which slip as you move into the water. The shoreline has quite a steep shelf into the sea not a gradual decline. It's best to take some beach type shoes to wear in the water but there are the plenty of shops locally that sell them if you forget. The waves can be quite rough if there is a breeze and it may be challenging for young children.

Plenty of shops, restaurants and things to look at and do.
Plenty of shops, restaurants and things to look at and do. Lovely beach. Would recommend wearing sea shoes to go in the water as it has a lot of pebbles going into it. Lovely clean beach with life guards on duty. Overall a lovely place to visit.

We liked the resort for bars and restaurants, but the sea was not easy to get into for those with mobility issues. The people in bars, restaurants and our accommodation were all very friendly and a good bus service made it a great location for seeing the area.
Centrally located, very clean. The staff are exceptional and very friendly. We didn’t realize until 2 days prior to our visit that our flight landed super early in the morning and we would arrive at the hotel around 2:30am, luckily our room had already been vacated and the staff were very accommodating and let us check in extra early, they even asked if we needed a snack before bed. The breakfast buffet was very good, a mix of western and Greek foods. A short 2 minute walk if that to the beach and all other hotels and restaurants!
We were very happy to stay in this hotel. It was super clean. The staff was very welcoming and all facilities were cosy and clean.
The breakfast was perfect, tasty and with big variety of products. Since we left early in the morning, we received takeaway breakfast and it was also great.
The hotel is located very close to the sea beach, possibly 100 meters. The kitchen is well equipped with absolutely all kitchenware you may need for cooking. In conclusion, we had an amazing stay and happy to recommend it.
It was our second stay in this hotel. And now it was even better. They upgraded us to larger two-room sea view apartment for the same price. The breakfast is quite tasty and various. Great beach and sea just in few steps. Also I'd like to mention restaurant Marem, located in front of hotel. We spent all the evenings there, tried a lot of local dishes and everything was incredibly delicious.
This hotel is an amazing gem. The facilities were clean and fresh, breakfast was good and the service was amazing. We came in really late due to a delayed flight and Maria made sure my kids were still able to get something to eat. If you are looking for a place to stay on Crete this is a wonderful find. Excellent service, excellent location, excellent rooms. Would 100% stay again.
