Nightlife in Chania: Chania by Night Vacation Options
For many, nightlife in Chania is alone one of the reasons to visit Crete. Many shops, picturesque alleys, excellent food, and a sunset like no other are only a few of the things that stand out.
Despina Studios is situated in Chania with lots of nightlife options. Agia Marina, where our studios in Chania are located, is close to Chania town center, only 20 minutes drive from our beachfront hotel. Although Agia Marina and the neighboring area of Platanias are offering many entertainment options for adults, couples, and small families, many of our guests are optioning for going into Chania town for their entertainment. In this guide, we will point out the best areas of town for the best experience.

Nightlife in Chania: The basics.
When we refer to going out in Chania town center, and especially for people coming to our town during the summer for their vacations, the old Venetian Harbour is a top choice. Many beachfront cafeterias, restaurants, and fish taverns are offering you a nice view of the Venetian harbor in Chania and the Aegyptian lighthouse.
Chania Lighthouse- Egyptian Lighthouse in Chania
We can certainly recommend that you enjoy a refreshing orange juice or a quick coffee and then head for the long way up to the Venetian lighthouse which is approachable on foot. For a meal, we recommend that you avoid the harbor-front shops as they are usually overpriced and the food is not so good due to the attractiveness of the place.
On the contrary, we suggest that you get lost in our small passages and small alleys of our old town in Chania, where you can find peacefulness, tranquility, better services, a nice and cozy environment, and local people. Watch out for “Splantzia Square” and its neighboring alleys for the perfect experience.
When should you experience the best night out in Chania?
When going for your night out in Chania, especially in the summer, every day will be a perfect opportunity for entertainment because of the popularity of our destination. Although, if you like to bond more with locals you should choose the days: Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Those are the days that locals specifically go out to have fun and this is because many businesses in Greece don’t work on the weekends, so this is a Class A opportunity for us to go out.
The best times for nightlife in Chania start right after the sun sets and last till the very early hours of the morning, as Chania is pretty famous for its nightlife. You can all together enjoy a fine romantic sunset walk in our old town, experience a good cocktail or a nice beer, and then head out to one of our clubs or pubs until early in the morning.
Chania: Where locals go.
If you want to experience a more local- and nontouristy- approach to your nightlife options then there are some specific places in our town that locals specifically choose for many decades. Splantzia Square is a safe option, as there are many “mezedopolia” (small restaurants with “by the side” dishes) that locals always prefer for their night out. The atmosphere is friendly and quiet and the majority of people attending the square, although a minute away from busy touristic areas, are Greek.
Another area with nice dinner options that locals (especially on Saturdays) choose to spend their time on is Chatzimichali Daliani Street, in a close distance from the Splantzia Square mentioned above.

If you are in the west part of town, and near the Naval Museum of Crete then the Nea Chora area is another place that locals are fond of. Nice traditional beachfront taverns are offering you fresh fish and nightlife in Chania is taking off with regular live music from wanderers or from -in the restaurant- musicians.
The area of Chalepa is another option where locals go and is usually not that crowded making it an ideal option for our clients that want quiet and privacy on their night out in Chania.

A small hint for going out in Chania town.
Despina Studios Hotel in Chania is situated in Agia Marina, in one of the most touristically advanced and beautiful areas of our town. Having so many tourists, the local bus service now organizes many bus routes from Chania town to Agia Marina and Platanias around the clock.
That means that you don‘t have to worry about your way back into our studios in Agia Marina as most possibly you will find a bus route suitable for you at all times. You are kindly requested to be informed about the bus and taxi routes for your perfect nightlife in Chania experience!

Most of our beloved guests of our hotel are always choosing the sea which is only a minute away from our hotel for their swimming and sunbathing session, on the sea or in our hotel’s pool.

There are also extremely clean, with plenty of sand for comfortable swimming and very close to infrastructure such as shops , restaurants and Taverns ideal for your vacations.

If you are looking for beaches in Chania with huge infrastructure, tourist traffic and close to everything you will need, as well as the nightlife of Chania then the North coast is for you.

Maleme beach in Chania: Vast and with historic background.
Maleme beach is only 5 kilometers away from Agia Marina and our hotel . Maleme beach has sandy beach parts as well as rocky beach parts thus making it ideal for everyone and every taste. It has enormous length towards east and west which means that you will have no problems finding a quiet spot for your relaxation. Not only the beach has fantastic water but is one of the beaches in Chania that have a huge historic background as well.
At some point in Maleme beach you can still see a German observatory which was used on the operations of the Battle of Crete in world war 2 . The observatory is right at the front of the beach and is in good condition, as it is preserved as a war relic. Ironically enough, there are many tourists that are finding nice shade on the sides of the observatory post which many years ago had a completely different usage.

Chrisi Akti : A beaches in Chania Pinnacle!
Right next to Chania town centre is the area of Agii Apostoli. There are plenty of parks and outdoor activities to do there, thus it is considered one of the best free beaches in Chania. It is fair to say that even locals are choosing this beach for their casual swim , as it is clean, sandy, with nice views over Cretan Sea and the gulfs of Agii Apostoli, and also having tourism infrastructure and also wheelchair accessible spots.
Agii Apostoli Beach Chania- Despina Studios Beachfront Hotel- Agia Marina Chania, Crete
This is the reason why we suggest Chrisi Akti and the other Beaches in Agii Apostoli- Chania beach complex. There are ideal beaches for people with disabilities and people with wheelchairs and special needs. There also lies special equipment in order for people with wheelchairs to enter the sea and also there are lifeguards always on duty for security reasons. To sum up, Chrisi Akti is one of the beaches in Chania that is close to everything and suitable for all kinds of Vacations in Crete, whether this be a family vacation, a romantic couple vacation or a vacation of people with special needs in Chania.
Nea Chora Beach in Chania: Right in the town centre!
If you are in the town centre strolling around the city and you are craving a rewarding swim then Nea Chora area is for you. Nea Chora literally translates into “ New Town” which means that as ages came by, the old town was expanded into bigger areas and “Nea Chora” is one of them. Nea Chora is only 7 kilometers away from Despina Studios, facing east and is a long sandy beach in between the areas of Chania town and Agii Apostoli Beach in Chania which we already talked about.
Tampakaria Chania- Combine a swim in Nea Chora Downtown Chania with a stroll in the picturesque neighbouring “Tampakaria Area”
It is a beachfront beach with clear waters , sandy beach and right next to fish taverns that can treat you with fresh fish after your swim. It is in walking distance from Chania town center, so it is a nice alternative to combine your city center sightseeing or nightlife with a swim to the crystal clear waters of Nea Chora beach.
A hint from Despina Studios on Nudism.
Our years of experience in the tourism industry have already shown that many of our guests that are coming for vacation in Crete are searching for beaches in Chania ideal for nudism. Although it may be OK for most people to be nude on every beach, the beaches that we disclosed in this topic are not ideal for nudism , as they welcome people of all tastes and interests.
As you understand, nudism is a sensitive subject and we insist on being nude only on deserted beaches far away from tourist crowds. There are plenty of beach shores in the Paleochora area, Agia Roumeli Village or even Gavdos Island , which is an island that nudists and relaxation seekers always love.
You can contact us or stay with us in order to experience the best beaches in Crete, explore the Cretan countryside , enjoy Hiking or simply enjoy the sea views from the balconies of our beachfront hotel in Chania. Whatever you like most, we always got you covered !
Sightseeing in Chania: Presenting you the lake of Agia
There are many sightseeing options in Chania for people who are locals and for tourists who love to have vacation in Chania. Centuries of history, folklore tradition, natural beauty, gorges , mountains and unknown beaches ideal for the perfect summer vacation in Greece and in Chania.
The majority of tourists that are coming for Vacation are staying in beach shore properties like our beachfront hotel and sightseeing in Chania is something that many people are looking forward to doing on their vacation. In this blog from our tourist blog series about vacation in Chania we will present to you one of only two lakes that we have in our vicinity. Distance from our hotel is only a few kilometers, which means that you can enjoy sightseeing in Chania in minimum time, as well as combine sightseeing with other activities while on vacation in Chania area.
Lake of Agia: A perfect sightseeing in Chania opportunity!
Lake of Agia is situated in the suburbs of Chania town, just 10 kilometers away from town center. In our prefecture we only have two lakes, the Lake of Agia, and the lake of Kournas , which is situated in Georgioupoli, near the border with the prefecture of Rethimnon .
Agias Lake in Chania- Sightseeing in Chania region- Despina Studios Agia Marina
Contrary to the lake of Kournas, which is a natural sweet water lake in the vicinity of Chania, the lake of Agia or the lake of Agyia (both names are correct) is an artificial lake. It is situated in the village of Agia, hence its name. This lake was built in this area due to the fact that it is rich in underwater currents and also this area is ideal for cultivations. Large citrus trees and avocado fields are everywhere in the area.
Many picturesque and -off tourist – villages are found nearby which are also a nice “sightseeing in Chania “ opportunity, especially if you are driving by car. To name a few villages in the vicinity, those are : Alikianos, Fournes, Skines, Kyrtomado, Skordalou, Omalos Plateau, Meskla and Therisso , all reachable by car in about half an hour.
Lakes in Chania- the Lake of Agia
Lake of Agia : How and Why it started.
The artificial lake of Agia was constructed by the electricity company of Greece in the early 20th century when it converted a large water swamp into the lake we know of today. The electricity company of Greece established this lake in order to give a steady and fierce water stream for its neighbouring water powered electricity factory. Water from the lake gave power to the water turbines that then gave motion to electricity generators in order to produce power for the -then- small city of Chania.
As years went by and the population, as the electricity consumption increased, there were some bigger fuel generated power stations in Crete and then the Lake of Agia and its power plant were no longer needed.

However, we can still see the old water powered electricity factory just 200 meters away from the lake , facing west , as well as the large water tunnels forcing water into this direction.
Lake of Agia: A Nowadays Approach.
Nowadays the lake of Agia is a picturesque and natural bio habitat that is a perfect place for sightseeing in Chania. It is a resting place for many immigrating birds as it is now a stop over for them in order to find shelter and rest for their long journey into warmer climates when autumn approaches.
Sightseeing in Chania – Ducks and Geese in the lake of Agia
It is also a Natura 2000 area, which means that is heavily protected environmental area where hunting and fishing is not allowed in order to preserve the natural habitat.
Lake of Agia is a top choice for those who like to go sightseeing in Chania as a free activity, but also for nature lovers and bird watchers, as lake of agia has a big amount of wild birds that are migrating and this lake is a temporary shelter to them. There are several observatory posts in the lake, so we strongly insist on taking your time and enjoy the bird watching on your vacation in Chania.
Lake of Agia : What to do there.
There is a nice walkway and a big area where you can admire the dimensions of the lake, as well as a big metal bridge in order to see the estuary of the lake that leads to the power station (now a museum) that we already talked about. Plenty of photo opportunities, bird watching and nature admiration activities for holidaymakers in Chania.
If you continue your way after the bridge which is on the lake of Agia you can now reach a path that circumnavigated the whole perimeter of the lake which will take you about an hour of relaxed walking and sightseeing in order to finish it. A lovely romantic stroll and sightseeing / birdwatching opportunity lies in this path and is relatively unknown to many tourists and even locals. This procedure might seem tedious but it is relaxing and rewarding instead.
A hint from Despina Studios Beachfront Hotel in Agia Marina
We believe that you should at least pass 3-4 hours in the lake of Agia when on vacation in Chania. You can observe wildlife in their natural habitat, make a nice romantic sightseeing walk around the lake and last but not least – enjoy a nice meal overlooking the lake!
There are only two small cafeterias in the area with impeccable views towards the lake, and we insist that after your sightseeing in the lake you should rest for a bit there and enjoy a nice dessert, a healthy snack or a small meal. The view will be totally worth it, and we at Despina Studios categorize this activity as one of the best free things to do in Chania while on Vacation in our beautiful place! Our exclusive Special Offers will make you crave for a vacation in Crete now!
Despina Studios in Chania and Avocado- Our ‘Despina Estate’ Story !
Our beachfront hotel in Chania is perfect for summer vacations. Our rooms are equipped with everything you need for a commendable vacation. We already talked about our sea view hotel’s in Chania story and in this blog we will also talk about our studios in Chania extra endeavor, the “Despina Estate”.
Despina Studios In Chania: Presenting you our farm.
Our studios in Chania are already established for nearly 2 decades in the tourism industry in Chania. However we always strive to give our respected guests a more holistic approach, so we created our Despina Studios farm, called “Despina Estate”.
Avocado in Crete- Avocado Production in Crete Greece- Despina Studios Hotel in Agia Marina Fruit Farm
We started our Studios in Chania back in the early 2000’s . At that time our grandfather was alive and had this large 1 acre land in Agia area which at that time was a cultivation full of orange trees.
However, despite our studios in Chania which were prominently successful from the early days, this piece of land was not. Oranges were not popular amongst buyers at that time, so our production was worth little money, thus making it financially unprofitable for the most part. Basically we kept this piece of land for family purposes and in order to have a source of Bio and fresh oranges for us and for our clients in our beachfront hotel and studios in Chania. Otherwise, we would have spent more money cultivating, irrigating, fertilising and collecting those oranges than the profit itself.
The hard truth.
Our studios in Chania remained successful for more than a decade, up until 2020 when covid situation. We also remained active in this period but due to government restrictions we were forced to start the season late- as of everyone. Then an idea came to mind- and having a lot of time because of the situation- we grasped on the opportunity, to revive our land and create our “Despina Estate”
The beginning of our Studios in Chania estate manor.
We decided that we had to remove all the very old and very big orange trees that belonged to our grandfather. It was altogether the end of their life cycle- which was of more than a century. Big excavator came into the field and removed all the old trees.
Starting of a new era Despina Estate Avocado farm in Crete
Then we had to properly plow the land and install new irrigation lines for the new cultivation. Lots of hours, heavy machinery and sweat from our part was put into this effort in order to revive our field.

What do we cultivate into our studios in Chania fruit field?
We decided to make a combination of cultivations. Being sentimental with the orange trees we destroyed, we decided to establish citrus species again . We decided to cultivate Red Grape Fruits which are pretty healthy, have anti carcenic properties , make a good weight loss option and are equally as rich in Vitamin c as their cousin, the regular orange.
George – Despina Studios in Chania, Director planting Avocados in Crete
Not only that, but we decided that a nice alternative and a fruit that guests in our studios in Chania absolutely love is Avocado. Avocado in Crete is a relatively new thing, but many studies have shown that it is a healthy -rich in nutrients fruit that absolutely thrives on Cretan Climate.
Fruit production on our Estate.
We combined Red Grapefruits and Avocado varieties in our estate which is more than an acre in size. More than 150 new fruit trees are now ready to produce fruit crops for years to come, and especially avocado trees that as you can see have already started producing their first crops.
On our studios in Chania you will luckily (depending on our harvest) find a fruit basket full of our “Despina Estate” produce and also some hand soaps handmade with avocado from our fields.The avocado varieties that we cultivate in Despina Estate are: Hass, Lamb Hass, Fuerte and Reed, the majority of those being Summer varieties ideal for consumption during your summer vacation in Crete!
A tip from our studios in Chania!
Depending on our work schedule, it is possible to go for a small free excursion on Despina Estate in order to see our bio fruit farm, adore our commitment into producing healthy crops and enjoy a small barbeque or a glass of beer in a quiet place next to pine trees and our lovely river, originating from the Lake of Agia.
This place is sure to amaze you and make your vacations in Greece even more relaxing and spectacular. You will also learn our flora and fauna more extensively, and you will understand the scale of our island even better. Lastly, you will get to see how local people leave and what is their daily routine. Bonding with our local culture will broaden your horizons during your beach vacations in Crete!

Beachfront hotel in Chania: How despina Studios started
Many of our tourists are classifying us on their reviews as a beachfront hotel in Chania. This is ultimately true as Despina Studios is situated in a prominent area in Agia Marina, just 8 klm away from Chania. Our hotel rooms are just 30 meters away from the sandy beach of Agia Marina which is ideal for an ultimate summer vacation. In this welcoming blog post from our blog we will introduce you to our beachfront hotel in Chania: How we started, who we are, what we believe in Greek Tourism and Cretan hospitality.
The basics: How our Beachfront hotel in Chania started.
Our beachfront hotel in Chania started in 2004 and is practically new, as I (Geoge, the owner) always renovate my hotel, my equipment, and our studios in chania facilities every year. I listen very closely to the customer reviews of my beloved customers and always strive to give them the best vacation in my beachfront hotel in Chania.
Prior to 2004 Despina Studios was only an idea in my father’s head. Thankfully we had the plot of land in the cosmopolitan and touristic area of Agia Marina which is a must for building a hotel in Agia Marina. Needless to say, apart from an excellent idea that is building a hotel in Agia Marina money was not existent. Careful and years long savings from my father, who worked as a Baker in a NATO Base nearby, was just enough to start with the foundations of the building which we did at the time that Olympic Games were hosted in Greece (2004) .

Despina Studios Beachfront Hotel in Agia Marina- Chania: How we proceeded.
Although optimistic the money saved from my father was not adequate, and by the time we had builded the building’s skeleton the money ran out. Despite public belief at that time, we decided not to get into debt in order to build our beachfront hotel. Instead, we decided to start adding parts of the hotel every year-little by little- in order to make a proper business move and not get into debt that may not be easy to pay in the long run.

Our hotel’s meantime.
In the first years everything was primitive. A small traditional TV set, beds and lights, and a humble bathroom were the only things that described our beachfront hotel in Chania. Although, because of our hotel’s excellent location we eventually worked successfully even in the first years. With the savings of every season and with my personal savings of my second side job as a truck driver- year after year- i managed to establish a beachfront hotel which is reputable, value for money, beachfront and with impeccable but personalized services to each one of my customers who show gratitude to me on my social media accounts and Instagram.
What we offer.
On our beachfront hotel and studios in Chania cleanliness and value for money is of paramount importance. Proximity to the sea, sea view from our hotel and excellent service from me and my staff is what everyone sees when coming to Despina Studios. My hotel comprises 8 studios, Four studios with direct sea view that accomodate 2 adults and four studios which can accommodate up to 3 adults and provide side sea view and mountain views on the areas of Agia Marina and Platanias.

Where we stand out.
From a very early stage I decided to offer my customers a level of service, attention to detail and a level of trust that made them feel like home, and that makes them keep coming back. This, I believe, is the only way that one can still have a successful beachfront hotel in Crete and in general, as the competition and big companies push every small hotelier out of the game.
My happy friends (i don’t refer to my guests as customers) that keep coming back to my beachfront studios for more than a decade now, is what makes me proud and also gives me strength to keep going, upgrading my hotel rooms and services and offering them always something ahead of the competition.

What are the next steps?
New era in hotels in Chania is demanding and I am always trying to offer services that my guests need. There is an increasing demand for villas in my territory, and my home village in Apokoronas region, called Paidochori will soon be ready to establish our new project, Despina Villa which is perfect for those who also like mountain views,and off the beaten paths tourism experiences. We will talk about this endeavor soon.
How can I book my stay in Despina Studios in Chania?
Normally, my beachfront hotel in Chania is ready to accept new bookings -even for next year-from very early. Updated prices and availability can be found on our hotel in Chania reservation page which is secure , reliable and is run and optimized by a reputable third party.
