Hotels near Chania International Airport - CHQ, Chania

The house was closest to Loutraki beach where we spend a lot of time snorkling and playing In the crystal clear water. The beach was clean and there was a small cafe open with sunchairs to rent. The nearby tavern and restaurant was unfortunately closed for the season. But Bella Pizza is to be recommented, they deliver to the gate without cost and the food is great. The host is very helpfull with information om restaurants if you wish to eat out.

This hotel is really close for the airport, and you would need transport to get around to the coast I imagine. There is a nice sized pool, good rooms. There was no supper on site (though I do not know if this is usual), but you could order in food very quickly, and the hotel could supply drinks, and provided a little Raki for good will. This worked very well with generous amounts being delivered with additional bottles of coke cola etc. Breakfast included self serve fruit, flakes, croissants, toast, juice and coffee/tea. Our room (a triple) was laid out over two floors and there was an enormous balcony too. Air conditioning worked well. Friendly staff. It is in a slightlyunusual area, and planes do go over, but this is a good base for the airport.

We found that the local small beach located near our apartment just as nice as the touristy beach that took 1.5 hours to drive to. Super friendly people and most spoke very good English. The restaurants we ate at all had English menus or photos of the selection. The closest big city is Chania. There is a lot to do and see in the city.

Marathi Villas lies half an hour's drive away from Chania. It's a quiet and relaxed place with a beautiful view and crystal clear water that is perfect for swimming. At night, you can see the big ships come into Souda bay. During the day, our terrace was too hot, but there are places in the shade that can be used by all guests. We liked the Psamathi restaurant, and there are a few other tavernas with good food along the beach. Due to the hilly drive, it takes a while to get to Chania, let alone Rethymno, and people who really want to explore the island, choosing a more central accomodation might be helpful. This is the place to visit if you want to slow down, soak up the laid-back atmosphere and enjoy the beautiful mountain view. Even though menus are in English, the bay seems to be visited predominantly by Greeks, which makes the place feel authentic. It also means that some contact persons will have little or no English and that things like a continental breakfast are not easily available.

Overnight stay at the hotel which is only 5 minutes from the Chania airport. Good stopping point for late flights arriving in Crete. Everywhere I went in Crete found the people were so friendly and genuine. Great place to visit

Chorafakia is a very calm village. There is no varieties of restaurant out there but we ate at Bahar restaurant. The price was fair for a delicious meal, good service, comfortable place with nice decorations with plants and exotic rocks.
