Description
A beautifully restored village house, Villa Argiro is a mere 100 m from one of the excellent tavernas that border the shady square in delightful Plaka.

A lovely feature of this Villa is the first floor terrace with sea views between the neighbouring rooftops and gorgeous mountain views.

This is our first holiday with Freelance Villas and they have been excellent from the start.
Extremely helpful on villa choice for mobility reasons and help support my parents on their return with all extra paperwork during the pandemic. The villa is beautiful, so much outside space, fantastic views from the two terraces upstairs, two area outside also. The owner was there to meet us, a welcome pack with essentials provided. We’ve stayed in a lot of places in Crete but this has been the best villa, we hope to return. |

A beautifully presented comfortable villa, preserving a traditional feel with modern features set in the delightful village of Plaka above Almyrida. It was lovely to be able to swim in the pool, choose from 4 different outdoor areas to sit and eat,wander 2 minutes into Plaka. Here, at the best taverna in the area, family-run ‘Elpis’ produce excellent home cooked dishes using produce from their farm and traditional family recipes. A short drive away great snorkelling coves and small villages to explore. Staying at this villa gave us a little experience of village life and Cretan hospitality. We can’t wait to return!

Wonderful Villa in the heart of Plaka with good array of restaurants and a small market shop which has everything you need. The owner was so helpful and had a nice bottle of wine waiting. The villa was stunning, clean, bright and spacious. Our girls loved the pool and although it was April the weather was warm and we couldn’t get the kids out of the poolthe jacuzzi bath! Lots of good attractions near by from gorge walking to Chania old town. Amazing food!, all in all a great stay!”
