Seaview Plot in Platanias for sale. Just 300 meters from the village square of Xamoudochori, this exceptional 3,800 sqm plot offers a rare opportunity to build a private residence or luxury development in one of the most charming and upcoming areas of western Crete. The land is set in a peaceful, green landscape surrounded by newly built villas, offering a sense of elegance, exclusivity, and community. Thanks to its unique slope, the plot enjoys uninterrupted panoramic views of the Aegean Sea, the Theodorou islet, the White Mountains, and the lush surrounding hills — a vista that changes beautifully with the light of each day. With a standard building capacity of 200 sqm, it already allows for a spacious, high-end villa.

The land has direct access to water and electricity, allowing for immediate planning and construction. The area is quiet, yet not isolated, offering a perfect blend of privacy and accessibility. Xamoudochori is a hidden gem within the Platanias municipality, known for its natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and rising value. In just a few minutes by car, you can reach the beaches of Kolymbari and Platanias, enjoy traditional tavernas, or connect to the highway leading to Chania city and the airport.

Seaview Plot in Platanias for sale. Location Infomration: Platanias is located in west Crete, just 11 kilometers west of Chania. Platanias is one of the most popular tourist resorts in Crete and is so close to Agia Marina that they have essentially merged into a single large resort. Of course, we are talking about the Platanias in Chania, not the Platanias in Rethymno. The two places are many kilometres distant but you might be confused by the same name. Platanias and Agia Marina may seem two noisy, bustling places and everything is much more intense, especially if you’ve just come from a less touristy part of Crete. You certainly won’t be bored here! A busy nightlife, bars, restaurants, a large sandy beach and countless hotels along the seafront are the basic features of Platanias, the main tourist resort of Chania Prefecture. Platanias and Agia Marina are near Chania, making it easy to get to if you’re on holidays in west Crete – it’s close to Chania Airport, and you can visit beautiful Chania whenever you feel like it. Platanias lies at the mouth of the River Platanias, which was called the Iardanos in Homer’s time. Nowadays the river is known as the Platanias or Keritis. The banks were once lined with plane trees (platania in Greek), whence the name of the area. Ano Platanias (Upper Platanias) is the old village on top of the hill overlooking the area. The view from the Acropolis, as the locals call it, is most impressive, as the following mantinada (Cretan rhyming couplet) indicates. Kato Platanias (Lower Platanias) is the new seaside resort which has arisen due to local tourist development. Platanias is ideal for people who want a seaside holiday. One of the largest beaches in Crete, 7 kilometres long, stretches east and west of Platanias. Platanias is the ideal destination for young people in search of wild fun, but you’ll also see many families with babies and young children enjoying their holidays, as the place has amenities to suit every taste, including numerous family-friendly hotels.
