Der Aufenthalt bei Dimitri und Valentina war perfekt! Die Wohnung war mit allem ausgestattet, was man braucht. Gemütlich möbiliert und dekoriert. Wir konnten immer zum Gastgeber Kontakt aufnehmen u unsere Fragen wurden beantwortet. Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Tipp: Es wär schon, für den Garten eine Liege aufzustellen. Vielen Dank!

Super Unterkunft
Schöne Lage des Hauses direkt in plakias. Wir kamen erst auf Grund der Flüge um 03.00 Uhr an und wurden sehr freundlich empfangen. Der Kühlschrank war schon gefüllt sogar ein selbstgebackener Kuchen. Sehr lecker. Als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen bietet Plakias eine ideale Lage und für die wärmere Jahreszeit hat man den Strand in 2 Minuten zu Fuss erreicht. Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft und ein sehr guter Standort daher auch schon im April sehr empfehlenswert.

Une maison cosy, extrêmement bien équipée et très bien située au centre de Plakias.
Une maison très bien située au centre de la station balnéaire de Plakias, mais un peu en retrait des bars et restaurants. L'intérieur de la maison est joliment décoré, tout est pensé pour le confort des hôtes et les propriétaires ne manquent pas de laisser des petites attentions selon le pays et la typologie des occupants. La salle de séjour est vaste, la cuisine extrêmement bien équipée, et les chambres de tailles confortables. Seul l'environnement extérieur (les arbustes sont en train de pousser !) n'invite pas à séjourner sur la terrasse, meme si le coin repas extérieur a été bien aménagé et pas mal de bâtiments (futurs hotels ?) en construction à côté.
La piscine commune de la résidence Manolis, en face, est bien appréciable ! Une belle adresse en tout cas que nous recommandons chaleureusement !

About the host
Hosted by Valentina&Dimitris
We are a family of four, we live in beautiful Rethimno where we are working (bank employee and philologist teacher). Plakias is our favourite place, our favourite weekend escape from everyday routine. Heart is beating slower there, no rush, no anxiety! You get closer to nature which offers you a sense of freedom and relaxation. Our boys love it too, they can play as much as they want in the yard or at the beach as well. What we also like about this house is that you get where ever you want on foot. However, we can't visit it as often as we would like. Some of you can enjoy it instead. That makes us very happy because it's like we share with you memories, Greek summer spirit and of course our "meraki" (= to do something with soul,creativity & love). Dimitris, Valentina, Konstantinos and Yiannis
