Hostel Info for Youth Hostel Plakias
 
Welcome ? to the southernmost hostel in Europe. A place for fun, for adventure or just relaxing.
Open 2 weeks before Easter until the end of October.

“Set in an olive grove, this happening hostel goes all-out with hot showers, good music and cheap alcohol, making it a raved-about backpacker oasis. After one day’s stay you may hear the sirens singing and never want to leave.”- Let’s Go

Plakias, a quiet backwater away from the hectic north coast of Crete. Some people stay for the wonderful walks in the area. It is still possible to wander off to a lonely beach and see nobody all day. The mountains are for the more energetic. There are also special places known only to the hostel where you can swim in freshwater pools and shower under waterfalls. Then again, some people stay for the beach and the nightlife.

We have 6 large bungalows that are all the same style, with 4 bunks in each, one of the bungalows is for women only. In the summer we put an extra bunk on the terrace of each bungalow making a total capacity of 60 people.

All beds are €8.00 per night with a cheaper weekly rate. Possibly the cheapest hostel in the Euro zone!

New WI-FI 24 hours a day.

We are in the small town of Plakias some 35km south of Rethymno.

The bus journey to Plakias from Rethymno takes about 50 minutes. Get off at Plakias sea front and walk with the sea on your right for about 100m, turn left and go past the pharmacy. At the end of this road turn left and follow the yellow triangular signs, you will be home in less than 10 minutes.
