Fantastic Villa in a fabulous location

Villa had everything we needed and was to a high standard. Plaka had more to offer than we expected, loved the Tavernas and the Sports Bar. The Italian was an unexpected bonus! Short walk or drive to Almyrida, 6 euros for a taxi back Will absolutely be visiting again

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The stay at Villa Argiro was everything we could've ever wanted! Check-in process was smooth with printable directions and there was a little welcome basket waiting for us. Beds were comfortable and walking distance to some great restaurants in Plaka. Best part of this place was the outdoor areas with a very nice pool, patio, and balcony with great views! Thank you for your great hospitality!

Fantastic stay

As a family of 5, the villa was amazing, enough space for everyone to enjoy, the beds where so comfortable and we even got to watch the sunset from the top balcony. It’s a shame there isn’t a proper shower upstairs as it was too hot to enjoy the jacuzzi bath

Well appointed and great location

Beautiful house with swimming pool, central in a lovely village. Plenty of choice for restaurants and bars and good local supermarkets. Great to have dish washer and washing machine pods provided. Cleaning service excellent. Easy parking. Wrap around outside area and upstairs veranda means you can find the sun or shade at any time of day. Our 2nd visit and we will return. A hands free shower needs to be implemented

Well appointed and great location

Spacious villa, great pool and outside areas. Nice village location with plenty of tavernas and supermarkets. Nice beaches down the hill but you really need a car to get back from the beach unless you're good at climbing! The garden would be improved with underplanting or grass under the trees and shrubs as in the pictures. The bare soil was not very attractive

Villa Argiro

Proximity to the Town. The sun terrace. Air con in the lounge, it was a struggle to use it in the heat. Chairs on the upstairs balcony should be supplied. The grass wa never cut so if we had more guests the outside space would of been a problem.

Overall A very good Villa.

The accommodation was perfect for our extended family. There was plenty of cutlery, plates, glasses mugs etc. Also plenty of Towels, plus plenty of Beach Towels. The pool area was excellent with plenty of loungers and chairs. The layout worked for us and it was very close to Plaka main square. Would definitely overall, recommend this Villa. One of the showers didn't have a catch to hold the shower head, but the cleaner explained that it had just been broken by the previous people. The owner who was very nice had brought a replacement to fit after we left. This is not a complaint as it is down to us, but clever photography gave the impression that the pool was much bigger than it was. The chimney on the BBQ wasn't very efficient.

Fantastic villa in beautiful village

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. Perfect thank you
