We loved the view from this rental and the quiet nights. We wanted to give it 5 stars, but it only rates 4 stars, in our opinion. No one met us at the villa, and check in was difficult because we could not turn on the A/C as the circuit breaker was off. At one point, the Wi-Fi went out for 24 hours. We were expected to buy soap for the dishwasher. Communication was a little slow. Plakias is a beautiful part of Crete. If these issues can be fixed, the villa will be a great place to stay.
