We arrived a few hours early and it only took us a few minutes to contact Michael on the phone. He was very hospitable to us over the phone. He was not on site throughout our stay but it was easy to contact him. On arrival he soon made arrangements for us to access the house.The house is beautiful and modern. I think it is Michael's holiday home and there is everything there for you to have a pleasant stay, including a great kitchen with large fridge and freezer. Great garden terrace with sunbeds and dining table and chairs. The garden is private, but I believe you can use the shared swimming pool next door. The pool was broken when we were there, so we were unable to use it, but the place is only 15 minutes from Almyrida beach, so no problem for us. Beds were comfy and the bathroom was clean. There is a downstairs toilet too. Only a few minutes walk from Plaka village and some great tavernas serving great food. At least 2 supermarkets nearby (on foot). If you walk a few minutes down the hill from Plaka village you will see some amazing sunsets. Plaka is only a small village and although quiet, there is so much to do around the area, you will not get bored, but I recommend you hire a car. This area is more for families and couples. People who appreciate good food and drink and unwinding with a good book, or getting involved in village life should love this place. We certainly would love to return.
