Dining Area
The large dining area beside the BBQ was very hot, partially due to the air conditioning units being there. So we had to move tables and chairs around on the upper balconies to get a shady enough area for ten of us to sit and eat.

Excellent Villa
This villa in the mountains above Plakia was beautiful. I stayed here with four friends and it was amazing. We were welcomed by one of the women who cleans. She gave us a tour of the place and had a homemade cake for us!! Then a few days later, delivered another one. The Villa is very clean, has a nice pool, a great charcoal grill and dining area outside. There are little beaches down the road, and major beaches with in drivable distance. It is very close to beachfront restaurants and shops.

We will return to this fantastic Villa
We stayed as 2 families for 2 weeks. Villa Thromila is a gem and we cannot speak highly enough about the villa, the location and the attention to detail by the owner Stelios. The property is well equipped, spotlessly clean and is in a location to die for. The views are beautiful and the Villa is superbly placed for beaches at Souda, Plakias and Damnoni. We were thoroughly spoilt by Margarita who brought us gorgeous home made cakes each time she came to clean. The configuration of the Villa works excellently and is ideal for 2/3 families providing plenty of privacy and /or flexibility. The children loved the pool and we can’t wait to go back.

Great villa and location
We stayed for a fortnight at Villa Thromila. There were 13 of us the first week, two families. Stellios had arranged for an extra bed. The layout of the villa worked well for us, with one family in each of the separate villas, but eating together either on one of the balconies or around the barbecue area. Initially there were only 6 sunbeds,(the area around the pool is not huge) but when we asked Stellios, he arranged for more to be brought for us. We were all adults, many young, so everyone wanted to sunbathe! This worked fine. We loved the laundry changes every 3 days, and the wonderful cakes which were delivered at the same time! The only other issue we had - a shower head which wasn't working properly - was sorted over a laundry change before we had even mentioned it. We spent a long time round and in the pool, playing lots of volleyball. We had been warned that it can be very windy in the area, and 6 days of the fortnight were like this. We had to be careful not to lose things over the villa boundary! It was good to have such a lovely villa and pool to be around on these days, as the sandier beaches were uncomfortable as the sand was whipped up, and no boat trips went on these days. We visited and enjoyed Souda beach, Damnoni, Schinaria but we really liked Plakias itself - specially the far end where the volleyball net is! We went to Preveli- be warned that the drive to Palm Beach is 5 km of very twisty narrow road, not great surface and a bit of a walk to the beach at the end. Or you can park at the top of the cliff and have a steep walk down. Might be better to go by boat! We did a boat trip to Frangikastello - just us on the afternoon boat from Tasomanolis, calling in at a couple of other beached on the way back and stops for snorkelling, then seeing the sunset from the sea. We all really enjoyed this. 350 euros for 11 of us. Loads of great places to eat out in Plakias, Sellia and Myrthos. Great holiday thanks!

Exceptional Villa in a beautiful, laid back area of Southern Crete
We have visited the Villa mid April 2017, two families with a total party of 10. The Villa was perfectly clean upon arrival and 100% fulfilled all our expectations. All of the stuff you are looking for in a vacation home is available (chairs, sun loungers, large outdoor grille etc.) and of good quality like very comfy matresses etc. In- and outside dining is available. This area in Southern Crete is more laid back compared to the north coast, very friendly people, moderate price level and a beautiful landscape (canyons, mountains, beaches etc.).

Erholung pur
Wir hatten eine ganz tolle Woche auf Kreta und das lag ganz besonders auch an dieser Villa. Es gab einen sehr netten Empfang durch die deutschsprachige Gastgeberin. Wir wurden mit einem selbst gebackenem Kuchen begrüßt. Die Villa ist sehr sauber und wird sehr gepflegt. Tolle Aussicht zum Meer. Der Pool ist etwas klein, aber trotzdem schön und war und nach den Tagesausflügen eine willkommene Erfrischung. Wir haben diese Unterkunft genossen, weil sie zwei Familien sowohl Individualität als auch Gemeinsamkeit ermöglich. Die beiden Doppelhaushälften ermöglichen sowohl Gemeinsamkeit als auch mal einen individuellen Abend. Das war für alle schön. Es gibt in Plakias einige tolle Restaurant, z.B. das Medusa. Alles in Allem ein toller Aufenthalt.

Sehr helle,moderne und gut ausgestattete Villa.Es ist praktisch ein Doppelhaus,die Terrassen über 3 Treppen miteinander verbunden,perfekt für zwei befreundete Familien,Wir sind nachts angekommen und vom Vermieter freundlich empfangen worden. Sogar Lebensmittel und Getränke waren vorhanden,nicht zu vergessen den Kuchen,Honig und Wein vom Vermieter:). Am nächsten Morgen wurden wir vom herzlichen Ausblick aufs Meer überwältigt,noch schöner als auf den Fotos! Alle 3-4 Tage wurde die Villa gereinigt,Betten wurden frisch bezogen und Handtücher gewechselt. Margarita,die Mutter vom Vermieter,brachte immer einen Kuchen für jede Familie,sehr lecker,dankeschön nochmal dafür Margarita:). Der Pool wurde jeden Morgen gereinigt,es fehlte wirklich an nichts. Den Strand und Plakias erreicht man mit dem Auto in ca.5 Minuten,wo man wirklich sehr gut essen kann. Der Urlaub war wirklich wunderschön und wir und die Villa ist sehr zu empfehlen!

2 perfekte Wochen Urlaub in einer tollen Villa
Wir kommen gerade zurück und haben mit 10 Leuten in der Villa gewohnt. Die Villa bietet alles was man braucht, um es sich gut gehen zu lassen und selbst zu versorgen. Da es allerdings extrem gute Restaurants in Plakias, Souda, Sellia und Myrthios gibt, haben wir außer das Frühstück die Mahlzeiten auswärts eingenommen. Der Grill, die Terrasse und der Pool sind allerdings sehr einladend und wir haben dort wunderbare Zeiten verbracht. Die Villa ist sehr sauber und wurde 2x pro Woche gereinigt bzw. Handtücher gewechselt. Und besonders zu erwähnen ist die tolle Versorgung mit Obst, Kuchen, Käse, Olivenöl und anderen griechischen Produkten, die die Mutter von Stelios uns vorbeibrachte. Super lecker! Vielen Dank dafür. Auch die Betreuung sowie Check-in etc., Tipps und Informationen von Kostas waren perfekt. Wir würden diese Villa auch wegen der guten Lage gerne wieder buchen.

Beautiful venue, great service
So if you‘re planning a vacation on Crete - that‘s your spot! Located in the south of Crete you‘re mostly safe from the notherly winds and the weather is significantly better than in the northern part of the island. The Villa itself is very clean, beautiful, new standard (just 4 years old) and has everything you need. Great pool, gorgeous view and it‘s not too far to Plakias (5min drive or a 30min walk) with its nice restaurants, shopping markets, doctors, pharmacies and everything else you might need. The contact with the agency (etouri) was tremendous, they keep you updated on things to explore in the area (even considering the weather forecast for your tours). Really great. The host (Margareta) was very kind, she took good care for us and even welcomed us with complementary homemade cakes, olive oil, honey and raki. It really felt like home. This is a 5⭐️ venue! No complaints.

Awesome Villa!
We visited the villa in August with 12 people and had an amazing stay. The owner was welcoming and even brought cake, when stopping by to clean! The only minor thing in an otherwise amazing and great stay: The offer to buy groceries to get us started wasn't completely fulfilled and we hat to get many things ourselves. That was a little stressful because we arrived late due to a delayed flight and only had little time to find the right shops .
