Just returned from our seventh stay at this wonderfully located apartment. The owners, Manolis & Lina, are so kind and welcoming - they always come round to greet us and to say goodbye and Lina will often appear with some gorgeous home made cake. We have never had any issues with cleaning - it's always spotless. Joanna, who cleans, usually... More

When we first arrived in Makry-Gialos, we did wonder if it was somewhere we would like to stay. It's a long road through the town and the beach is hidden behind the backs of some rather uninspiring buildings BUT the secret is on the beach side! A beautiful long sandy beach lined with bars and apartments running down to the... More

All ten apartments enjoy stunning views over the sea, which laps on the sand immediately in front of this wonderfully located accommodation. The shallow sandy bay offers excellent swimming. Lying in bed or eating breakfast on our terrace, looking out to sea and listening to its' soothing sounds is bliss. There are shops and eateries close by but Villa Plori... More

We had a lovely holiday in June at Villa Plori which is perfectly located right on the best part of the beach and only 5 minutes walk from the numerous very good restaurants and bars of the harbour. The room was simply furnished but immaculate and had everything that you could want. The owners, Manolis and Lena are charming and... More

Went to Plori when it first opened (1986 I think). Went with my son who was six then and have stayed there many times since. Owners are really lovely people, very welcoming, friendly and will do anything to help. Would thoroughly recommend.

Cleaning and change linen twice per week, put out own bin bags on other days but this is no hardship as the rubbish bin isc just across the road. Following a violent thunderstorm and heavy rain(cleared after... More

have stayed at the plori 3 times, and i do agree the cleaning is acceptable but not the most efficient, however everything else about the plori make up for that. Was re booked to go to plori june 09 but obviously with the collapse of kosmar nobody knows what to expect, don,t think if this resort is taken over by... More

Villa Plori is right on the main beach in Makri Gialos. The rooms are basic but large enough with everything you might expect from such properties in Crete.The view however from your terrace makes up for a multitude of sins. Cleaning is a problem because the maid service is weekly which with the sanitation restrictions in Greece is frankly unacceptable... More
