"I want to stay another 100.000 days"... that's what my little daugher (4 years old) said, when we left the Villa. And I must agree.
The Villa is absolutely great for two families with children, as it consists of two seperate areas, each with its own kitchen, living room with terrace, bedrooms and bathrooms, so that two families can live in one house, but have their own space and privacy.
The Pool is big (I guess 5*9 meters) and is cleaned every day in the early morning. While swimming in the pool you have a great, unobstructed view of the sea and bay of Plakias.
One evening we had a chef come to our Villa for traditional Cretan food and grill... it was a wonderful experience watching him prepare and cook the food while sitting next to the grill on the big stone table, drinking wine, with the view of the Mediterranean.
We were the first guests in this Villa and everything was in perfect condition, the house was super clean and all the amenities worked perfectly (especially the aircondition is well designed and easy to adjust). The design of the Villa is beautiful with the stone clad faccade.
When we arrived late in the night, our hosts had bought drinks, food and fruits for us and despite the late hour we were warmly welcomed. Two times the mother of the owner came by and brought us homemade cake. Although we fortunately never needed it, we felt, that any possible problem would be take care of immediately by the owners.

There is a shaded place for two cars in the backyard and you will need a car when staying in this Villa, since the way to Plakis (the nearest Village) takes too long by foot, although you can reach it in 5 Minutes by car. Also there is a lot to discover in the area (I recommend Preveli Beach, Chora Sfakion and the small villages in the mountain area north of the Villa). There is a number of beautiful beaches right there, we especially liked Souda beach (3 min by car from the Villa), where you also find a small bar and a tavern.
In Plakias also you can find a number of taverns, some of them directly by the sea, all with good local food for very reasonable prices. Plakias also has some smaller super markets, where you can buy anything you need.
All together we had a wonderful time in this Villa and we really enjoyed our stay. Hope you will too...
Alexander and family
