Accommodation
in Crete
-
Excellent choice of
"rooms" available all over the island. You can just turn up
and book on the spot out of the school holiday season
-
Lots of apartments
and studio flats for self-caterers too
-
The Plakias Youth
Hostel is the 'most southerly' hostel in Europe. It is situated in the
town of Plakias, on the south coast of the island, about 40 kilometres
south of the city of Rethymno
-
Hotel Stavris is a
walkers' hotel in Hora Sfakion, southwest coast, famous for its
hospitality since 1969. It offers simple and clean rooms
-
Rethymno hostel is
excellent and has all the facilities you could desire including
friendly staff at an excellent price and in the centre of town.
-
Although plenty of
package companies go to Crete from UK, it is recommended to travel on
your own, as the beauty of Crete is located at small hidden villages
and not in the crowded/touristic places. Most cater for those who want
to go to Eastern Crete which is very lively. One or two cater for
Western Crete (much quieter) and South Crete (eg Paleochora)
-
Short-term
apartments Rent vacation rental apartments in the central Crete
$604/week, per apartment and up. The American agency listing this
apartment has been in business since 1975, gives its profits away to
charity, and looks particularly for apartments of good value in non
"tourist trap" locations.
