Apartment John Apartments

Kikladon 259, Platanias, 73100, Greece –

Very friendly owner and cleaning lady. It was very clean. The cleaning lady did not disturb you but waited until I left the apartment before cleaning. Amply equipped kitchen. The bed was super nice, thanks to the topper on the mattress. Big long balcony with cloth drying rack. Its close to a beach (small pebbles/sand mix), close to restaurants and shops.

Pancho, Netherlands

Excellent apart-hotels to relax with friends. We booked a room with two separate bedrooms, which is difficult to find at an affordable price. Everything is fine here: two spacious bedrooms with balconies, a large living room / kitchen with a loggia, daily cleaning, attentive staff. Cozy homely apartment in a great location. Thanks Jonh family! p.s. Refresh the photos on the booking.com. 😀 In a live apartment look much more interesting and pleasant than in the photo!

Mikhail_f, Russia

Comfortable clean and although it had no pool it didn't matter as the beach is literally one minute walk away. The hosts were keen to ensure everything was okay and spoke to me or my partner every day

Andrew, United Kingdom

Perfect position: 50m from the beach and 20m from the center road of Platanias (with markets, restaurants and bars). Very clean apt, John and his family are very kind

“I felt very welcome! The parts I wrote that I did not like are no complaints, but just advice.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • One-Bedroom Apartment
- • Stayed 3 nights
These are not complaints, but some advice from a fellow hotel-owner in the Netherlands: - I missed a sofa/comfortable seat to sit inside. There is an extra sleeping bed in the living room/kitchen but thats impossible to sit on because its very wide and has no pillows to lean on. There are dining chairs in the livingroom/kitchen, but thats hard and uncomfortable to sit on to read or watch tv. I put a balcony chair inside and that was okay. Adding thick cushions as back rest to the sofa bed in the living room/kitchen would fix the problem. - A shower curtain or screen would be also useful. The shower is a wet cabin now, so the whole toilet bowl and toilet paper get wet when you shower and accidently forget to aim properly :-)

We were met by John and his Mum on arrival and they were excellent hosts. Apartment was clean and facilities in 2 bedroom apt were excellent! Location could not be better, 1min from beach and 2mins from restaurants and bars. John answered any queries we had and we were made to feel very welcome! Can't wait to go back.
