Ikaros are a lovely small suite of apartments and bungalows on the edge of Plakias. It's a mix of studios and small bungalows set in pretty and well tended gardens with a swimming pool. We had bungalow 7 with a great view to the hills and mountains inland. Although the location is close to the road it was very peaceful.
Our one bedroomed bungalow was a good size, very clean and comfortable. The bungalow was cleaned daily. The kitchen had two rings and small oven and had simple cooking equipment but enough for doing breakfasts, lunches and a simple evening meal.
We had to change our plans a couple of times due to a family illness but the hosts were very accommodating and helpful - we were sorry we couldn't stay longer.
It is a 10 minute walk downhill to the east end of Plakias beach where there is also a beach bar and restaurant. Down the main road (which has a side walk) it is about 15-20 minutes walk into the main area of Plakias for the supermarket and more choice of tavernas - much quicker if you drive.
We would be very happy to return to both Plakias and Ikaros Studios.
