Location
The neighbourhood
If you're a beach lover, Villa Ondathaki is an exceptional choice, located just 3 minutes by car from the beach of Maleme. There's a wide choice of places to eat, drink and shop both on the seafront and in the main street of the village. Whether you choose to dine at a waterfront restaurant or opt for an authentic family-run taberna in the mainland, you'll be spoilt for your choice! The city of Platanias, which is the biggest touristic attraction of West Crete, has also a variety of shops, beach bars and restaurants, and is less than 5 minutes' drive from the Villa
Local markets & Shopping
In Maleme, there are plenty of mini markets, while a supermarket for those daily essentials is less than 3 minutes drive from the Villa. The village offers several options for shops to choose from, which is a few minutes walk from the Villa. Every Saturday, in the city of Chania, is a market where you can pick up fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as the local yoghurts and cheese. The old town of Chania has a mix of shops ranging from a bootmaker to boutique clothing.
Bars & Restaurants
You'll be spoilt for choice on where to eat in Agia Marina and Platanias. There are several restaurants that make local food and provide with a wide variety of meals. If you prefer fish, there are some waterfront tavernas that overlook the sea. Or why not put on your dancing shoes and head to one of the many nightclubs or cocktail and music bars?
Beaches
The beach of Maleme is less than 20 minutes' walk from the Villa, with clear blue water and soft golden sand. There is also the Blue Flag beach of Platanias with plenty of sunbeds and parasols to hire and a selection of beach bars and tavernas, all about 2km away. For a day at the beach, Elafonisi and Falasarna are ideal destinations! There are white sand and pink hues and turquoise waters that ripple in the breeze. Both beaches are a bit far away, but it definitely worths driving there!
Family fun
For some fun in the sun, especially when the coastline close to the Villa is wavy, Limnoupolis Waterpark offers a great adventure for the whole family! About 25 minutes drive from the Villa, Limnoupolis with its waterslides for the energetic and the lazy river for the more laid-back members of the group can provide with moments of joy all the members of your company.
Places of Interest
The city of Chania is not to be missed! The Venetian Harbour is fringed with restaurants, cafes and bars. This is a great place to rest after a day exploring the maze of alleys in the old town of Chania.
If you head east of Agia Marina you will find the Samaria Gorge that worths a visit. This is Europe's longest gorge, about 5 hours hiking - so be prepared to be wowed!
