Asterion Suites & Spa

Asterion Suites & Spa sits directly on the sandy shoreline of Platanias in Chania, offering an adults-only retreat that feels intentionally low-key and considered.

The design blends bohemian influences with contemporary Mediterranean simplicity, using natural textures, soft tones and open space to create a calm, tactile environment. Low-rise buildings, flowing pathways and carefully positioned pool areas give the property an easy sense of movement, while the aesthetic feels curated rather than showy, with a clear connection to local craftsmanship and Cretan heritage.

Rooms & Suites

The 67 rooms and suites continue this understated approach, with a focus on space, light and outdoor living. Swim-up options and private pool suites elevate the experience, while larger one and two-bedroom suites introduce a more residential feel.

Balconies and terraces are integral, drawing in sea views or quieter inland perspectives and reinforcing the indoor-outdoor flow that defines the stay.

Dining

Dining is centred around Matter Restaurant, where buffet offerings highlight both Cretan and international flavours, alongside the 35° Cretan À La Carte Restaurant, which presents a more refined take on local cuisine using seasonal ingredients.

Drinks move between the relaxed Naked Star Pool Bar and the more intimate Stellar Lobby Bar, allowing the atmosphere to shift naturally from day into evening without formality.

Experience

Days here are deliberately unhurried, shaped around the beachfront, the pool and quieter, wellness-led experiences. A private stretch of beach with loungers, a central pool and regular yoga sessions create a balanced, restorative rhythm, with light activities adding just enough energy without disturbing the overall calm.

Wellness

The Orion Spa introduces a more immersive wellness element, offering treatments inspired by Cretan ingredients alongside sauna, steam facilities and relaxation areas. Outdoor massage spaces by the sea and access to the Akylas Gym complete the experience, supporting both relaxation and gentle activity.

Where

Located just 3 km from Platanias and 15 km from Chania, the hotel sits in a convenient yet peaceful stretch of coastline, with Chania International Airport approximately 27 km away.
