This pretty villa enjoys a central location in popular Plakias. There are plenty of ways to pass the time on your doorstep, with easy access to Greek restaurants and beach bars 250 metres away. Or, for an experience further afield, why not hit the seaside trails along the Akra Kakomouri? Alternatively, avid hikers may want to drive inland up to Mount Kouroupa. Far from the stresses of city life, this sunny home is designed in natural tones. Here, you'll roll out of bed each morning after a restful night's sleep and make your way into the kitchen for a traditional breakfast. Enjoy slow mornings around this sleek dining table before you all head out for an action-packed adventure. When you return, a refreshing rain shower and private pool await. We think that quiet evenings were made for grilling souvlaki outside and sipping raki with your loved ones. Or, if you fancy a moment alone, just retreat to your bedroom balcony and look out to the Libyan Sea.
