Description

Plot for sale in Platanias. Set on the most active tourist axis of western Crete, exactly on the main road connecting Agia Marina with Platanias, the property spans 517 sq.m. and enjoys a 14-meter frontage on the road, with a through layout that allows visibility and access from both sides. It stands where movement never stops—cars, pedestrians, visitors, locals—creating a natural point of reference along one of the island’s most commercially powerful coastal corridors. The sandy beach lies just a few steps away. Here, “near the sea” is not a promise. It is something you experience in seconds. The land allows up to 360 sq.m. of construction for hotel use. This capacity supports the development of a boutique hotel with approximately 10 to 15 modern, high-quality rooms, designed for guests who value location, atmosphere, and experience over generic accommodation. It is a scale that feels intimate, manageable, and premium—ideal for a project that can operate with character and consistency. The front side of the plot offers an additional layer of opportunity. It allows the creation of a restaurant or hospitality space, either as a standalone business or as an integral part of the hotel. This forms a complete concept: accommodation combined with a visible, street-level venue that engages the constant flow of visitors and generates an independent revenue stream. Commercial visibility, immediate access to the sea, and uninterrupted tourist movement converge here in a way that few properties can offer. What can be created on this site is not just a building, but a presence—one that operates, stands out, and remains relevant over time. For those who do not simply seek a plot, but a position in one of Greece’s strongest tourist destinations, this is a foundation with depth, longevity, and real-world power.

The area has faced a great development in tourism during the last decades and the small village has now turned into a lively suburb of Chania. The proximity to Chania, the beautiful beach and the regular bus services from Chania have made Platanias the most popular beach near Chania city. The old village is built on a hillside with a fantastic view of the sea and the islet of Thodorou. The beach of Platanias is a lovely long sandy beach, along which there are many hotels of all categories and all the usual touristic facilities.
