This home is a short walk to the main area of platanias (the walk is down a gravel road past farm area). It appears remote when you arrive (especially at night) but it is actually pretty close to everything you need. Communication with the host was excellent. We had some problems including ants throughout the house (we could not leave any food on the kitchen counter) and some issues with arrival (a child greeted the first couple in our party to arrive and the welcome basket was forgotten) but the host responded to these concerns quickly. For the ant problem, we were provided with a can of pest control spray but that is really not a long term solution. Beds were very comfortable. The pool and outdoor area was very nice. Washing machine was very old and there was only 1 available for all the homes in the compound. Overall everyone in our party had a good time.
