Hello Maz_1, I think you will like the improvements at Anna Apartments, among other changes there is now a roof top sun terrace, ideal for enjoying a glass or two as the sun goes down. We are flying out in a couple of days so I will report any further alterations

PlakChat / South Coast Development

« on: March 13, 2012, 08:48:17 PM »

I am new to this forum so apologies if this subject has been aired before. Not strictly speaking a Plakias matter but lovers of the south coast should be aware of the massive development planned for the Triopetra beaches. I know this development proposal has been reverberating around for several years and I know that the present economic climate makes the development less likely but we should not be complacent, take a look at the Save South Crete website:-

There is a link to a petition so you can add your name to the army of local people and lovers of the south coast who dont want to see the mistakes of the North coast repeated in one of the Islands most beautiful areas

I thought members might be interested to know that it is again possible to book Anna Apartments in Plakias direct with the owners. I first visited Plakias nearly 20 years ago booking through the 'original' Simply Crete and staying at Anna Apartments. In recent years these beautiful apartments have only been available through the Dutch Travel company Ross Holidays but for this season the wonderful Polychronakis family have decided to accept bookings direct. The apartments have been refurbished twice since I first stayed there and I think are probably the best quality rooms available in the town. No apologies that this sounds like an advertisement, they are great apartments and the Polychronakis family are hosts in true Cretan style. You can find more details on their website:
