Location Overview
Pearl Villas are located in Plakias area that is set towards the centre of a large bay enclosed within the arms of mountains, on the south coast. The unspoilt breathtaking landscape of Plakias make it an ideal holiday destination for guests seeking total relaxation. The gorgeous beaches, stunning mountainous landscape and the inviting waters of the Libyan Sea, are all in all a reason to visit this part of Crete.

Plakias is a popular tourist resort. Originally a very small and quiet fishing village, and it now offers a range of amenities, as well as is renowned for it’s natural beauty, providing all the facilities that a visitor could wish for. Along the main road of the village there are several supermarkets, bakeries, ATM machines, post office, a doctor’s office, restaurants, tavernas, cafes and beach bars while on the beach there are tamarisk trees, water sports, beach volley courts, snack bars and other shops offer a very wide range of products, including local and traditional goods.

The beach is sandy and very well organised with sun beds, umbrellas, changing rooms, showers, etc. The rocks surrounding the beach are ideal for fishing and snorkelling, as well. The road along the beach is also ideal for walking or cycling.

Plakias makes a good starting point for walks along the coast to Souda, or up into the encircling hills to other villages such as Sellia or Mirthios, which boasts spectacular sea views out to sea. A good coastal motor track runs west beyond Plakias, leading to Souda, Rodakino, Frangokastello and Sfakia beaches. There are plenty of walks locally, and bolder walkers will enjoy the high green countryside beyond the coastal mountain range north of town. Mountain biking and cycle touring are other local attractions.

An amazing villa
We had a lovely stay at the Pearl Villa III I can’t recommend the accommodation and area enough. From the moment we booked Valia was very attentive and any queries I had were quickly answered. The villa itself was clean, modern, equipped with pretty much everything and comfortable. It is situated in a great location close to local bars, shops, tavernas and a lovely beach. We had an amazing time and are already looking to book with Think Villas again.

Tolle Villa mit super Ausblick über die Bucht von Plakias
Es war ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt in der Villa. Das Haus war so sauber und gepflegt, wie wir es selten mal erlebt haben. Das Hausmeisterehepaar hat uns mit allerlei Leckereien verwöhnt. Frisch gebackene Gebäckstücke, die noch warm aus dem Ofen kamen. Beim Empfang war der Kühlschrank mit allem gefüllt, was man für den ersten Abend und das Frühstück am Morgen benötigt hat. Der Blick über die Bucht von Plakias war phantastisch. Das Haus hatte eine sehr geschmackvolle moderne Einrichtung. Die Küche war mit allem Geschirr und elektrischen Geräten bestückt, die man sich in einem Ferienhaus nur wünschen konnte. Die kostenlose Zwischenreinigung mit Wechsel der Bettwäsche nach nur 3 Tagen haben wir gerne angenommen. Zum Abschluss gab es noch ein Geschenk. Ein sehr erholsamer und gelungener Aufenthalt! Gerne kommen wir wieder! 😁

Ein Traumhaus!
Ich kann meine Begeisterung über dieses Ferienhaus immer noch nicht fassen. Das beste Haus, welches wir jemals hatten.Wo soll ich anfangen? Angekommen wurden wir sehr herzlich empfangen, uns wurde alles wichtige im und um das Haus gezeigt. Die Austattung lässt keinerlei Wünsche offen, die Bäder/Schlafzimmer sind super modern und chic. Die Betten bequem, das Wohnzimmer sehr stylisch eingerichtet. Die Küche ist mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt. Zum Empfang hielt der Kühlschrank Eier, Rotwein, Käse bereit. Der Pool/Grill Bereich ist großzügig, wir hatten das 3te Haus am Ender der Reihe und damit dieses mit dem großen Grill Patio.Die Lage etwas oberhalb von Plakias mit dem wunderschönen Blick zum Meer, ist einfach perfekt. Jeden Morgen wurde der Pool und die Scheiben der Terassenumrandung gereinigt.Sogar unser Aschenbecher war jeden morgen leer und sauber.Einmal wurde uns frisches Gebäck gebracht ein anders Mal stand am Pool ein Teller mit frischen Trauben. Auch eine Zwischenreinigung wurde uns angeboten, und diese haben wir auch in Anspruch genommen.Dabei war das Haus beim Bezug piccobello sauber, nicht eine Stelle ist mir aufgefallen, in der es nicht sauber gewesen wäre. Wir haben uns rundum sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt! Zum Abschied gab es vom Vermieter noch ein kleines Präsent.Insgesamt haben wir einen Traumurlaub in einem Traumhaus mit Traumgastgebern verbracht. Vielen Dank und wir werden sicher noch einmal buchen.

Perfektes Ferienhaus
Wir können die Pearl Villa uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Es war bisher die beste Ferienunterkunft in der wir je waren. Das lag zum einen an dem Wunderschönen und absolut sauberen Haus und vor allem auch an den Eigentümern, Herrn Michalis und seiner Familie. Bei der Ankunft sind wir herzlich empfangen worden. Der Kühlschrank war bereits gut gefüllt mit Wein, Käse, Eiern, Saft und Obst. Die Einrichtung ist sehr modern und neu. Jedes der drei Schlafzimmer hat sein eigenes Badezimmer. Der Blick von der Terrasse auf die Bucht von Plakias ist ein Traum und lädt zusammen mit dem Pool zum Verweilen ein. An manchen Tagen wurde uns frisches Gebäck gebracht, welches einfach köstlich war. Jeden Morgen wurde der Pool und der Aussenbereich sauber gemacht. Selbst der Grill war nach der Benutzung am nächsten Morgen gereinigt. Eine kostenlose Zwischenreinigung wurde ebenfalls angeboten. Danach sah das Haus wieder aus wie beim Einzug. Alles sauber und frisch bezogen. Zum Abschied gab es ebenfalls noch Olivenöl und Wachscreme aus eigener Herstellung. Wir möchten uns nochmal für die Herzlichkeit und den schönen Aufenthalt bedanken. Plakias ist über einen kurzen Weg schnell zu Fuß zu erreichen. Es gibt viele Tavernen und Geschäfte und einen langen Strand. Der Ort war zwar gut besucht, aber lange nicht so überlaufen wie einige andere Orte auf der Insel. Wir können den Ort und die wirklich schöne Villa nur jedem empfehlen.

From the moment we booked Pearl Villas to our very last day, the owners (Mr. Michalis and co) went above and beyond. We are a family of 6 (3 couples and a baby), having three bathrooms and 3 rooms really was important to us. This villa offered just that. We stayed in Villa |||, you have a great view of the beach from here. The villa has everything you need: bbq, toaster, coffee machine, hair dryers in each room, beach towels, high chair, safe, dressing gowns, cot etc. The fridge had milk, eggs, wine and more on arrival. We were also gifted more wine, olive oil and beeswax from the lovely owners - such a nice touch. One day we were given some breakfast too. The villas was immaculate, beautifully decorated with light airy rooms. Every morning the outside areas are cleaned and half way through the stay we had the villa kindly cleaned. The owners of the villas are so friendly - they really did go over and above. They do not stop working! Plakias is also a brilliant holiday destination, beach/supermarket/restaurants not even a 5 minute walk from the villas. You are spoilt for choice once you reach the harbour. A few restaurants to mention would be Apenemo, Antoni’s Place and Paligremnos (this one is the opposite end to the harbour). All of which are family run with fresh dishes. If you are considering booking a holiday in Plakias, look no further. Pearl Villas in the place to stay. We could not find any fault!!
