Maria's place is actually a hotel located in the middle of Plakias beach. We had a lovely experience although we did not enter to the room shown in the pictures with the direct balcony sea view due to lack of availability but Maria has switched us to that one a few days later. All in all very nice hotel rooms with a little kitchenette and very nice balconies. Very clean and cozy place. The only negative thing is the noise from the street which does not let you sleep with doors open. Otherwise a very positive experience and Maria is a great host and very responsive. Definitely recommended.
