My husband and I (and our 1 year old baby) stayed at this beautiful villa in mid August 2018.
We were extremely impressed with the location and view (overlooking the bay of Plakias). The view is just breathtaking and the location feels extremely peaceful and quiet and private (and yet is only a 7 minute drive down the hill in to Plakias or Souda). Or you can drive up the hill to a few mountain restaurants up there. So well located!
We also loved the cleanliness of the apartment - everything is sparklingly clean and brand new, with solid marble floors throughout. We were also surprised to have a maid visit every two days - which was fantastic.
The host Christina lives on the 1st floor, but the way the building is designed is very clever - you don’t feel overlooked and we felt like we had the entire place to ourselves for two weeks. The ice cold pool is gorgeous and perfect for the hot days, and there are 4 sun loungers and two umbrellas. The layout of everything works really well and it’s perfect for relaxation.
Everything feels high quality and expensively done - we cooked in the kitchen twice a day and it felt like being at home. The outdoor patio was perfect for lunches or dinners outside, or drunken card games (once the baby had done to sleep naturally).
All in all we loved it. We had some issues with the WIFI at the beginning, but it was all fixed by the end and Christina was so warm and welcoming and helpful.
