Pyrgos villa 1 ,sea view,pool,South Crete,Plakias

Enjoyed the whole stay view is amazing, only down points was that the pool light was broken and still after reporting it was not fixed. Second would be the kitchen, all clean but very used.

Ideal villa for 2-4 people, in a cluster of three. Very private (apart from Yannis and others popping round to clean the pool). Well-maintained and kept clean through daily housekeeping. Fives minutes drive down a steep hill from Plakias, which offers numerous restaurants and shops and supermarkets. Photos on the website don't do the villa or pool justice as both are much larger in reality. Would not recommend arriving in the dark as the last 500-meter-drive up to the villa is bumpy and off-road. Parking is limited so try to rent a small car. The unsprung beds were a little hard for our liking but overall the villa offered everything we needed for a relaxing and scenic holiday. Whilst at times rather windy, on hot days this provided welcome cooling. We had a super stay and would love to come back next year.

Positives- property spacious and overlooked magnificent coastal scenery, reached by unpaved track along steep hillside. Car required. Plakias and Sellia in easy reach. Negatives- pool remained murky and green fringed. Robot cleaner stirring up dirt rather than removing it. When the roof leaked and villa suffered water ingress, a clear offer of appropriate alternative accommodation was not received until many hours later. However it is beautiful so go now before they develop the area further and go early in the season for a cleaner pool.

Fantastic stay in villa Rea! We had a wonderful holiday and couldn't have wanted anything more! Stella looked after us so well! Xx

Fabulous villa, stunning position overlooking Plakias. The villa was set on the hillside, 10 minutes drive from Plakias, and10 minutes from Selia, the mountain village. Superb restaurants in both. The villa was well appointed, well equipped, and spotlessly clean. Stella was a wonderful host, cleaning the villa daily and was very helpful with anything that you needed. The little garden and pool were attended to regularly. We loved this villa and would recommend to other travellers.

Great location, amazing view, very comfortable. We especially appreciated the air-conditioning! It's only a five-minute drive to Plakias and there is so much to see in the area. I would highly recommend this villa, or rather one of the three, which are next to each other but still quite private. We specifically asked for the one nearest to Plakias, which has uninterrupted views of the bay. That's known as Villa Ena (Villa One), though its actual name is Villa Rea. Stella and her son Ioannis were on hand whenever required and were very friendly and helpful but never intrusive. We didn't expect to have the bed sheets and towels changed every couple of days! Overall, I would highly recommend these three villas.
