The villa in Plakias had a wonderful sea view to the coast side, with beaches only a short drive away. The property, however, in Plakias, unfortunately had quite a rampant bug issue (Thrips), which prevented us from making full use of the outdoor pool area. Sitting outside for 1 minute, resulted in having upwards of about 10 of these pests on your body, which made dining or general lounging outside very unpleasant. We worked with the Host to have this issue resolved, and unfortunately the bugs were not taken care of in the entire duration of our stay. Construction was also taking place next door, which created loud noises in the morning, which was compounded by the cleaning staff/ other property maintenance workers stopping by at all hours of the day. In most of the cases, the workers would not announce their arrival, and during our stay, our privacy felt very much compromised. Besides the bugs, construction, and unannounced visit of staff, some of the furniture had been outworn, and did not resemble the pictures taken (stains, and normal wear and tear). Parking right next to the villa, was somewhat difficult since the drive way was not paved, and there were not enough spots for all of the guests. The overall feeling we had before arriving, was this villa is too good and too beautiful in the pictures to be true. Unfortunately we were correct. If you prioritize views over comfort, than we would recommend this stunning location. However the property and villa itself, were very disappointing in person, and compared to our previous villa this villa was quite the opposite of relaxing.
