Die Küchenausstattung ist allerdings zu sparsam, selbst zu kochen erfordert viel Kreativität. Warmes Wasser gab es, allerdings nur auf Nachfrage und erst ab Nachmittag. Insgesamt haben wir uns aber wohl gefühlt und konnten mit den Einschränkungen leben. Sind halt häufiger Essen gegangen ##### Verified traveller Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2021 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christian K. Aug 24, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Topp Das Secret Nest liegt am Ortsrand von Plakias. Ca. 5 Minuten Fußweg zum Strand. Supermarkt ca 2 Minuten. Stella selbst als Vermieterin ist hervorragend. Sie hat uns nach einer Woche auf Kosten des Hauses die Badetücher gewaschen. Das Apartment selber wird täglich gereinigt. Einziges Manko ist, dass kein Kleiderschrank vorhanden ist. Sonst sehr moderne Einrichtung, klimaanlage, Dusche mit richtig viel wasserdruck. Sehr, sehr großer Balkon. Parkplätze vor dem Haus im Schatten vorhanden! Sehr wichtig im August! Alles in allem ein wirklich gelungener Urlaub. ##### Christian K.
