This hotel, like many others marked as “VIP Access,” offers no real benefits. Despite clear upgrade availability the night before check-in, we were told nothing was available once we mentioned VIP status—a recurring pattern where upgrades are consistently denied using vague excuses. If a non-VIP guest wanted to pay, I’m certain a room would have been available. There was no recognition, no perk, no welcome amenity—nothing. Even after raising the issue with guest relations, no effort was made to address it. Additionally, the advertised valet parking doesn’t exist and isn’t needed—it’s just misleading. This feels more like a marketing trick than a real program. I strongly urge you to review and remove this hotel from the VIP Access list.

How do I get a cheap travel package to Platanes?
It's easy. Just bundle. Flights, hotels and rental cars — combine whatever you need into a Platanes travel package to save loads of cash. Score even more discounts when you include extras such as experiences or tours to your booking. But that's not the only impressive part. You have the freedom to tailor your holiday your way.

Does Expedia offer Book Now, Pay Later Platanes holidays?
Expedia has partnered with online lender Klarna to make your next trip easier on the purse strings. Paying by instalment means you can spread the costs of your next big adventure, leaving you with more cash to play with while you're away. Klarna has several payment plans to pick from, so you're sure to find one that fits your budget. Check out these flexible payment options:

  • Pay monthly holidays: If paying bite-sized amounts each month sounds best for you, Klarna can help. Paying in easy monthly instalments will make that dream holiday possible.
  • Pay in instalments holidays: With this Book Now, Pay Later option, Klarna allows you to pay for your holiday over multiple transactions.
  • Low deposit holidays: If paying a small percentage of your getaway (rather than the total upfront) makes it easier to click that "book now" button, opt for a low deposit holiday payment plan with Klarna.

What are the top hotels in Platanes?
If this will be your first time in Platanes, reserve a room at Kalypso Cretan Village Resort & Spa or Belvedere Apartments And Spa. Both hotels offer comfortable beds and are top options with many travellers.
How far in advance should I book my Platanes holiday?
While prices change from time to time, we generally suggest reserving your seat as soon as possible. Many international fares are found on Expedia up to 12 months in advance. If you're booking last minute, you might still be lucky. Cheaper tickets to Platanes sometimes emerge in the weeks prior to departure.
What does an Expedia Platanes travel package include?
That depends on what type of trip you have in the works. Platanes holiday deals can include flights, car rentals and hotels. You can mix and match to create the bundle that suits your style and budget. You can also add on activities and experiences after you've booked to land even bigger discounts.
