Mimallis is a pretty, quaint and authentic village house, located in the whitewashed, touristic village of Plaka. As such, don't be surprised to see tourists admiring your abode as they walk the village. Plaka is very pretty and popular for its lovely sunset views, and has shops, a number of cafes/restaurants, some picturesque churches and a kastro/castle on top of the hill. Although it is a tourist attraction, the village is home to villagers, some of whom have lived there their whole lives.
Eleni is lovely and helpful, as is her husband who has the Museum of Sand across from the house. The house itself is tastefully decorated with pretty furnishings and objects. Not sure if the listing mentioned it, but the hand-held shower is not enclosed and is within the toilet area, so it's more like a wet room, which was fine for me. There is also a picturesque patio to the rear of the house, furnished with a table and chairs and is a lovely spot for breakfast. Eleni brings a fresh breakfast to you in the morning - so nice!
