Beach resort on the Gerani coast with a pool and sea access.
Eanthia Beach Resort is a beach resort on the Gerani coast, on the Kissamou-Chanion road west of the city of Chania in Crete, Greece. Gerani lies roughly 15 to 20 kilometres west of Chania, close to Platanias and the old Gerani cave area, and sits on the long sandy coastline that runs toward Maleme and Kolymbari. The resort has a pool and direct sea access, making it a straightforward choice for a beach-focused holiday, with the Old Town of Chania about a 20 to 25 minute drive east. Its facilities are those of a mid-range resort: swimming pools, beach access, a spa, restaurants and a bar, with air conditioning and Wi-Fi in the rooms. Accommodation includes double rooms, family rooms and suites, so couples, families and small groups can all be accommodated. Typical high-season double rates are indicatively EUR 85-170 per night, which is moderate for a resort with these facilities. Dining is provided on site by the resort's restaurants and bar, with breakfast and evening meals suited to guests who prefer not to travel; Platanias, a few kilometres east, offers a wider choice of tavernas and bars. Service follows the typical resort model of reception staff able to arrange excursions, car hire and taxis, and the resort is geared toward leisure travellers on one-week or two-week stays. The coast road location is useful for visitors planning to see Kissamos, Balos lagoon and Falasarna to the west, or Chania and the Samaria Gorge to the east. Beach conditions on the north coast can change with the wind, so the pool is a reliable alternative. The resort suits families and couples who want a relaxed seaside base with facilities, rather than a walkable historic setting.
