About this property
Summer Lodge Double Room A - weekly rental
Family run vacation budget lodging, ideal for relaxing holidays by the beach, which provides the luxury of paying less on accommodation and spending more on fun, while on holidays in western Crete. Conveniently located on the edge of the historical seaside village of Maleme, Summer Lodge, an attractive, family run vacation lodging is a fine example of traditional Greek architecture. Only 5 Kms from the centre of Platanias and 17 Kms west of Chania town, is the ideal starting point for the visitors requiring a wide variety of sandy beaches, water sport activities, peaceful countryside walks, or interesting visits in archaeological and historical sites. With the tremendous advantage of being no more than 400 meters by footpath to the long, quiet beach of Maleme, mostly sandy but also pebbly and a number of local restaurants as well as a supermarket and other shops, the situation couldn't be more convenient and car hire, although useful is not essential, since bus service is frequent. Set around a pretty, flower filled courtyard and orange grove, our pleasantly light, well kept guesthouse has 15 furnished and nicely decorated bedrooms. They all have en suite shower rooms, wc and wash hand basin and are equipped with fridge, and safety deposit box. Accommodation is available in single, double, twin or triple bedded rooms to meet all requirements, with maid service and linen/towel change provided twice a week. Most of the rooms have shared balconies or open terraces whilst others on the ground floor, that face onto the gardens, have a patio area and plenty of outdoor space in which to relax in. The simple, traditional interiors are cool and a wall fitted fan in each bedroom adds an extra degree of comfort during the warm summer days. The superb 10m x 5m pool is surrounded by sun terraces and is supplied with patio furniture and sun lounges. Beyond the pool and shaded by trees and a pergola is a pretty terrace with free Internet Wi-Fi connection. A good Wi-Fi network, a clean/hygienic place to stay, nearby take-away meal options, laundry service and a friendly environment to chill on the weekends/work-offs is all that a person seeking workation needs and Summer Lodge got all of it, making us an ideal place for digital nomads. What makes us different is the local knowledge we share with you, helping you to enjoy truly authentic experiences during your vacation. Personal service, relaxing atmosphere and a warm welcome await you at our family Summer Lodge, a charming property ideal for both, families and couples, where you‘ll always get more value for your vacation money.

Relaxing stay in beautiful surroundings
I stayed here for a week at the end of July, it was quiet, tranquil and had everything I needed. Vassilis and Athena were so friendly and helpful.
I will definitely be coming back.

Bon séjour
Jolie petite maison joli petit jardin
Très bon accueil ,nos hôtes sont très agréables
Mais l'ensemble a besoin de rénovation,les toilettes sont à bout de souffle, la douche bien trop étroite, les clôtures et portails d'entrées complètement défoncés ça fait négligé.

Grönskande oas.
Mycket lugnt läge. Trevligt familjehotell.
Enkla rum som liģger i en oas av grönska. Mycket gästvänliga och tillmötesgående ägare. Inte långt till stranden och en fin pool. En mycket avkopplande semester.

Pas d'eau chaude !
Le titre résume tout : la chambre serait agréable (bonne literie) mais quelle ne fut pas notre surprise le soir en rentrant d'une longue journée de balade, de ne pas pouvoir prendre de douche !! Le chauffage solaire est insuffisant à assurer assez d'eau chaude pour tout le monde. Et le lodge n'était pas plein !! Nous avons du prendre l'avion le lendemain, sans avoir pu prendre de douche. Pas très confortable...

Accueil sympathique
Hôtes très accueillants et sympathiques. Chambre correcte avec un balcon agréable. Belle piscine et jolie cour extérieure. Un peu trop proche de la route et chambre non climatisée. Proche de la plage, un peu isolé des commerces (mieux vaut être véhiculé)

Un séjour "traditionnel" et des hôtes accueillants
Un cadre très joli et assez rétro tout comme le logement (comme cela est précisé dans l'annonce). Un accueil parfait et attentionné.
On regrettera l'utilisation de la piscine que de 8h à seulement 19h même si cela est pour des raisons d'hygiène et de sécurité évidentes. Il manque aussi une petite bouilloire dans le logement car certes l'établissement vous propose un petit déjeuner continental le matin pour un petit prix mais vous devrez vous plier aux horaires.
En résumé, on est loin des gros complexes hôteliers récents de La Canée, mais c'est pas ce que l'on cherche en allant à Summer Lodge: la tranquillité, la convivialité et les rencontres sont au rendez-vous et cela devient rare. Et tout ça à un prix raisonnable. Merci pour tout.
