Everything about the house is wonderful - location, pool, rooms, kichen incl. equipment ... absolutely great! Manos was of great help and we felt at home immediately. Thanks for everything!
Der Gastgeber Manos war jederzeit per Mail und whatts App erreichbar, bei Fragen oder Tipps. Vor Ort war dann auch Giorgos. Sehr unkomplizierter, angenehmer Austausch. Das Haus hat eine tolle Lage in Plakias und die Bilder entsprechen absolut dem, was man vor Ort auch vorfindet.Bei der Ausstattung hat es an nichts gemangelt.
Schƶne, groĆe Unterkunft in toller Lage und umfangreicher Ausstattung
Wir hatten einen rundum schƶnen Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist sehr groĆ mit vielen Zimmern, groĆen Betten, einer sehr gut ausgestatteten Küche und einer Vielzahl an Sitz- und Liegemƶglichkeiten. Schƶner, gemütlicher AuĆenbereich mit Pool und tollem Ausblick. Lage ist auch top.
