This is, as all the other reviews indicate, a great apartment. Spacious, modern, clean, good beds, well equipped and with a very nice sea view from the balcony. We really liked the location: Plaka is a calm village with a good vibe and not as touristy as Elounda (which is close by if that is your thing). Still it has various restaurants to choose from. We enjoyed the Ostria at the pebble beach right across the street, and the bar next to it for some cocktails. Also a good spot for your explorations nearby (Spinalonga, renting a boat, Agios Nikolaos) or further. All in all a very relaxing start of our stay in Crete. Good communications with Manos and check in/out with his friendly father. Recommended!
