We visited Platanias in 2019 and enjoyed a couple of meals at Vanilia. We visited Platanias again in June 2022 staying at Minoa Palace. Vanilia is just to the right of the front of the hotel, on the main road. We were greeted in the...same friendly manner as previous. We ordered Greek salad and Mamma's beef - which is slow cooked beef served with spaghetti. Delicious. We visited later in the week when we enjoyed another Greek salad plus freshly cooked pizza. Another fantastic meal. We were given courtesy melon and raki. The food, service, environment and friendliness of staff are highly recommended. The "owner" recognised us from 2019 - he is friendly, chatty. Great location, great prices, clean.More
