“What stands out here is the rare combination of peacefulness and proximity; it's removed enough for tranquility, yet a short walk puts you in the heart of Platanias. The hotel's commitment to sustainability, with its Green Key certification and dedication to eco-friendly practices, adds a layer of responsible travel to the experience. I think this property is especially well-suited for families or anyone seeking a relaxing base near the sea.”
