Casa Filo Verde in the Heart of Retro Village Plakias, 150m from Beach in a Beach Paradise

We loved our stay at Manos’s place! It was exactly as described, spotless clean, easy to find, completely private and not to mention the great hosts. We felt peaceful during our 7 day stay and would recommend this place to anyone. It really exceeded our expectations. Communication was great, the local recommendations and gift basket were also wonderful and the beds were super comfortable with blac... more

Great!

We had a really nice time in Plakias! The house is superbly located – quiet, but still close to the beach and the taverns. There were five of us and we felt very comfortable. The rooms are beautiful and each have a large balcony on the upper floor. There could perhaps be a little more storage space. The kitchen was very well equipped. The dishwasher is perhaps a little small for the high-quality, ... more

The. Best. Ever! Sweet owner, beautiful house without being posh very very comparable, great location. Could not be bet Amazing. Friendly owner. Perfect house. Great location.

We had a wonderful stay along with a very warm welcome from Vanna. Would definitely recommend. + Location and layout were very accommodating. - Views onto back of building from bedrooms

We stayed in the villa for two weeks, and from start to finish, Emmanouil communicated with us very professionally. He didn't overwhelm us with messages at all, but only informed us about the important and relevant points – this created a great feeling that everything was running smoothly (unfortunately, that's not always the case). In Plakias (on site), our contact person was Vana – a very compet... more

We had a wonderful stay. The villa was great, as were the comms throughout. Lovely location, spacious and well appointed. Highly recommend.

Awesome location and well-equipped Every utensil you can think of was available and the hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful!

Super good accommodation with private garden and pool. Private parking right in front of the villa. Large and good rooms with private bathrooms. Super good service from the landlord. Was greeted by a happy and friendly host, who had provided some delicious greens as a welcome snack and had provided breakfast when we arrived late. The house is located super nicely, a little set back from the beach ... more

A very nice house. There were five of us, and the size and amenities were perfect for us. A car is recommended for the area, and parking is available. Someone came by almost every day to clean the pool, which wasn't necessary. Beautiful beaches nearby, a supermarket, and a butcher (for the barbecue) are very close by. We would book again.

Fantastic! Hospitable welcome and a beautiful house, exactly as in the pictures. Beach and shops within walking distance. Clean, beautiful and nice house. In between cleaned and new towels, very luxurious! Worth repeating! 1 tip; a little more closet space in the bedroom and bathrooms so that you can better store your things. Otherwise, great!

The accommodation, very well equipped, has designer decor and top-notch bedding. Very pleasant welcome from the owner (fruit, drinks, etc. on our arrival and small farewell gifts). The accommodation is located in the center and near the port of Plakias from where you can leave by boat to Preveli beach and the palm forest. Pleasant garden and terrace with small swimming pools, one of which is perfe... more

Very nice house, very friendly people. It was cleaned regularly. We were very satisfied with everything! Thank you very much!

The house is modern and spacious, the garden and pool are very well kept. Excellent welcome from Vanna with welcome drink. Many good restaurants nearby.

We had a perfect week at this villa. Excellent location to walk to the beautiful Plakias beach and the huge number of fantastic restaurants in the town. There are also so many exceptional beaches to explore within an easy drive, so there is plenty to keep you occupied. An absolutely ideal spot for a relaxing break.

Die Unterkunft ist sehr schön und praktikabel, mit perfekter Ausstattung. Wir waren 6 Personen und hatten jede Menge Platz. Ein wunderbarer Kreta Aufenthalt!

Great host. Apartment in stunning island. 5 minute walk to shops / beach. Loads of great restaurants also minutes away. Will hopefully be back. Thanks Manos and Vana!

Vana was fantastic. So helpful and welcoming. Even producing a lovely selection of goodies on our arrival. The Villa is perfect in a fantastic location walking distance to everything. Absolutely spot on. Highly recommended

Wir wurden sehr gut von Vanna empfangen und die Villa hatte genug Platz für uns 6 Männer um sich auch mal alleine zurückzuziehen bei den 8 Tagen aufeinander. Alles war in super Zustand und sehr sauber und auch die Lage war perfekt, da man nur knapp 5 Minuten zum Meer laufen musste. Alles in allem ein sehr schöner Urlaub in einer sehr schönen Villa und wir kommen gerne wieder.

Schöne Unterkunft mit Pool.

Nice and modern house. On walking distance of shops and restaurants. Friendly host who gives you all kind of tips for activities.

Welcoming hospitality, with recommendations and discounts to a great restaurant. Everyone and everything in Plakias were friendly and of high standards. From the butches to the dive centre. Beach to waterfalls. Restraints to views. Drives to walks. Hope we get back soon.

Villa luxueuse et prestation de très haut de gamme. Hôte hyper réactif et souple, le tout pour un prix très raisonnable. Le seul défaut à été le bruit des travaux dans les lotissements en construction voisins sur une bonne partie du sejour.

We had a great stay at the Villa. Was spotless clean on arrival and cleaned once during our stay. Very comfortable beds, high-quality furnishing, all very good. Nothing was missed. Garden is also nice, pool very clean and temperature was good even for October. Location is perfect for Plakias, walking distance to the beach, tavernas, shopping. We definitely would stay again when visiting Plakias.

Einfach traumhaft! Alles wie auf den Fotos. Das Haus ist neu und modern, geräumig, vollständig eingerichtet bis zu Außengrill, Gartenliegen und Sonnenschirm, Küche umfangreich ausgestattet. Pool tadellos. Alle 3 Schlafzimmer mit eigenem Bad, die beiden Zimmer in der 1. Etage superschön, mit großem Balkon, alle Betten sehr bequem. Perfekt für unsere große Familie mit 5 Erwachsenen. Ruhige Lage, pri... more

The villa is modern, spacious and equipped with everything you need including washing machine, dish washing. There is plenty of crockery and all kitchen utensils, appliances and gadgets, including spices. The fridge freezer is big. The bedrooms are big enough and beds very comfortable. The showers are good and there is shower and hand gel. The villa gets cleaned every 3-4 days. The location is per... more

Modern, clean, all we needed, extremely comfortable beds, good showers, Vana was an excellent host, great location. Only a few points to mention. The grass in garden was very long, could have done with some more storage in the bedrooms

Trevligt hus med bra plats för 7 personer. Det nedre sovrummet var lite tråkigare än de 2 övre på övervåningen. Gräset runt poolen hade kunnat klippas och trimmas för bättre intryck. Poolen var lite mindre än hur bilderna såg ut. Dock bra djup för att simma samt en grundare pool för barn. Alla tillbehör var smidigt. I köket fanns allt som kunde önskas för att kunna laga mat, toast, grilla mm. Inge... more

Boendet var helt fantastiskt och matchade alla våra förväntningar. Både Vana och Manos har varit så hjälpsamma både före och under vår vistelse. Huset är lokaliserat på gångavstånd till alla restauranger och stranden i Plakias. Huset var rent och snyggt och vi fick det även exemplariskt städat under mitten av vistelsen. Vi kommer tillbaka!

We enjoyed our stay in this villa very much. We are a family of four with 2 teenagers and it was a lot of space for us all in this modern house. Plakias is a very nice little town with some restautants in walking distance to the house. Kri Kri was our favourit. We had a car and tried out some nice beachers in the aera. Vanna was a very friendly welcoming host that gave us a lot of tips about what ... more

Moderne hus med høy standard. Fullt utstyrt kjøkken med alt du trenger av utstyr. Store fine soverom med egen airconditon på hvert rom.

Vår familj om 5p tillbringade 1v i Plakias. Boendet passade oss perfekt med gott om plats, hög standard, fin pool och tr Rymlig, vackert inredd villa med fin trädgård och pool. Bra faciliteter, välutrustat kök och stor grill i trädgården. Härlig pool. Bra läge m gångavstånd till allt i Plakias. Dålig avrinning i handfaten. Ingen utsikt.

We had an amazing stay at our villa, our host greeted us on arrival, was very friendly and made us feel at home straight away. The local area was beautiful and there was plenty to do within driving distance. The villa was very clean and modern, as seen in the photos, and it was a perfect place to stay as a family. It was very private and there was no noise in the area. We would definitely recommen... more

Das Ambiente ist sehr modern und ansprechend. Es handelt sich um eine Doppelhaushälfte. Man kann also auch mit einer größeren Gruppe beide Häuser mieten. Im Garten gibt es ausreichend Liegefläche und mittlerweile auch eine Überdachung für Schatten im Barbecue Bereich.

Maison très agréable et bien agencée. La piscine (bien que située proche de l’entrée de la maison) est parfaite pour des enfants en bas-âge car elle dispose d’un bassin peu profond. Le centre ville avec ses commerces et ses restaurants se trouve à 5mn à pieds. Et Vanna qui nous a accueillit était charmante et disponible (notamment quand elle nous a apporté du linge de lit supplémentaire le lendema... more

Fungerade väldigt bra för våra behov. Det blev väldigt halt när det blev blött när barnen badade i poolen som blev ett orosmoment.

Comfortabele villa met alle comfort en een vriendelijke host. Dorp met verschillende goede restaurants op loopafstand.

Beautiful villa. everything was perfect! The location was super and the host Vanna is so kind. if you want a good villa, this is exactly what you need!

Maison tres agreable car lumineuse( grandes baies), avec 3 salles de bain, des lits confortables et un tres bon équipement. Une piscine tres appreciee par notre petite fille de 5 ans et un barbecue pratique au gaz qui nous a permis de faire poisson et brochettes..les restaurents, commerces et plage sont tout proches, ce qui permet d y aller à pied.bref, un tres bon séjour que l on n oubliera pas.

Excellent location. Very pleasant to stay there.

Wir wurden nach Mitternacht herzlich von Vanna und ihrem Mann mit einem kleinen Begrüssungs-Snack in Empfang genommen. Die Villa ist gut gelegen, in 5min ist man zu Fuss am Strand von Plakias. Mit dem Auto kann man viele weitere Strände anfahren. Die Villa selbst war sauber und wir haben uns sehr schnell wohl gefühlt. Der Pool ist eher klein, aber es reicht um sich kurz abzukühlen und für die Kids... more

The Villa is quite new and very comfortable. Vanna welcomed us with Raki and some bites, communication was easy and whenever there was a question, she answered quickly. The pool is rather small, but very clean. The house is super clean, too. But nevertheless, in the middle of the week it was cleaned once again. The surrounding area is quiet, all restaurants are in walking distance and the beach, t... more

Tolles Haus, sehr nette Gastgeber.

We had a lovely vacation in Casa Filo Villa. It is a 2 stories house with a nice garden and a swimming pool which is also suitable for little kids. On the ground floor there is a nice bedroom, bathroom, fully equipped kitchen + a small dining area (from our perspective the dinning area was not that comfortable). On the 2nd floor there is another bedroom, bathroom and a Master bedroom. The check-in... more

Wir waren eine Gruppe von 6 Leuten und hatten eine sehr schöne zeit. Haus war etwas kleiner als gedacht, war aber nicht weiter schlimm. Das Highlight war aufjedenfall der Außenbereich mit Pool. Es gibt innerhalb von ein paar Hundert metern alles was man braucht. Insbesondere gute Restaurants und diverse Tavernen. Das Haus ist zum weiter empfehlen!

location was superb and Vana was very friendly

The villa was excellent and we were very happy with the location, the cleanliness, facilities and outside space. The check in etc was excellent and the en-suite plus 2 additional bathrooms was very useful. Overall we had a great stay at the property.

Beautiful villa, great location very close to the beach and small seaside town. Very clean and hosts could not have been more helpful! We really enjoyed!

Highly recommend! The location is very comfortable as it is only a few minutes by foot from all the restaurants, the beach and markets. The host is very kind and takes good care of his guests

the place was exactly what the announcement said. location quiet and yet only a couple of minutes walk to the beach. definitely revisit one day.

Amazing villa with good location near the most beautiful beaches (just a few mins drive away). Also 45 mins drive to Rethymno where you have a beautiful old city with several bars. The villa is in walking distance to several nice restaurants and supermarkets. Our host, Vana, was super nice and always available. The pool is cleaned every morning and a cleaning lady comes once a week. The kitchen/li... more

Manos was great! From the initial booking, to changes in booking, answering “tourist” type questions, providing quick and detailed feedback, providing a full guide with information you wouldn’t have even thought about, all in all, brilliant service! Highly recommended!!!

The villa is a great spot with a lot of space for our big family (five persons). We really enjoyed our stay. Plakias is a nice place to be with a beautiful beach and good beach bars. Some other interesting beaches are really close as well.

Lovely villa! Great location and so close to everything. We really enjoyed it

Wat een top verblijf was dit! Echt een ontzettend mooie villa en een fijne uitvalsbasis voor bezoek aan Plakias (restaurantjes, koffie tentjes, strand heel vlakbij). We hebben ontzettend genoten en hopen hier zeker terug te komen! Heel erg bedankt voor alles Manos en Vana! Groetjes, Kirsten

Brilliant from start to finish. The house is absolutely beautiful and have everything you could need and more. In addition, the hospitality was extremely warm and welcoming. I stayed by myself but I could see the place also being ideal for a family or a party of friends. Couldn't recommend more!

Everything was as described and worked perfectly. The hostess was very nice and helpful.

The house is really great! Perfectly located close to the beach of Plakias. Other beaches n sights (eg Prevelli) can be reached easily. The house was super clean n well preserved, the pool n BBQ made it perfect. The hosts were always available n very helpful n caring. We can definitely recommend this place. All the best for u!

Great house, that is nicely located. Close to the beach, restaurants and supermarkets. Lovely host that makes you feel very welcome! Enjoyable hospitality!

super nice,georgous home

A beautiful, clean and spacious villa in a great location, has everything you need for a great holiday and the host was really friendly and helpful. We loved it!

As a group of 5 we really enjoyed our stay here. The Villa was everything we expected and our host Vana was lovely. We were able to be in contact with her throughout our stay and she would always be there to help whenever we needed anything or had any questions. The villa is in a really good location in terms of getting to restaurants and the beach only bad thing I would say is it’s quite far from... more

Wir waren zu 3 in der Villa. Von Hauseigentümer wurden wir sehr herzlich begrüßt. Die Villa ist geräumig, neuwertig und sehr sauber. Die Villa hat eine perfekte Lage da man alles innerhalb weniger Minuten zu Fuß erreicht (Strand, Supermarkt, Bäcker, Metzgerei, Apotheke usw). Die Villa können wir auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen. Wir danken Manos für die Organisation sowie den Barbara für die Gastfre... more

Great location and very comfortable for our family. The hostess met us with snacks and drinks and stocked a few things in the refrigerator. The pool is great and there is a washer in the house which was handy.

We were a group of 7 and had an amazing time at Casa Filo. Everything looked exactly like on the pictures. The villa is close to the beach, to restaurants and to different supermarkets. Our host Vana was very nice and lovely and helped us with everything. She was definitely one of the best hosts we ever had. We highly recommend Casa Filo

The house was perfect. Air conditioner in all rooms. All it's clean. The garden and swimming pool are beautiful places to enjoy in the morning or in the afternoon coming back from beach. The owner so kind. The host will help you with a rich guide of Crete. All was great!

Die Gastgeber sind perfekt, die Villa ist voll ausgestattet und sieht super aus! Die Lage der Villa ist wirklich Top. Mit Auto sind auch alle Spots innerhalb von 15 Minuten zu erreichen. Der Strand und die dort angelagerten Restaurants sind 2 Minuten Fußweg entfernt. Für uns hat alles gestimmt, die Unterkunft ist nur zu empfehlen!

Des hôtes plus qu’accueillant. Nous avons séjourné pendant une semaine. La villa est très propre, moderne dans un quartier calme. Cadeau de bienvenue, des attentions pendant le séjour, et un cadeau au départ. Vous allez profiter d’une belle piscine propre et nettoyée avec soin. Je ne regrette pas de tout et je reviendrai avec plaisir.

Great house great People everything top we enjoyed the stay in the new house which is extraordinary very very much.
