Hi Mike

Well we did seriously consider it and my girlfriend was talking about it for the the whole of the last week. On the last day i came very close i must admit. Maybe next time.

Oh and i just noticed you can state when you last visited Plakias, so ignore that question George if you read this. You were staying right next door the same time we were there then? Looking at that photo you do look very familiar it must be said and to be honest that's why i asked.

Hi this is my first post.

The staff are all very nice, especially Frankie who serves the late drinks, he's a real character.

I would definitely return there and i'm one hundred percent certain i'm going back to Plakias as soon as i can.

I nearly cried when we had to leave the other day. I've never enjoyed anywhere as much as i have Plakias. What a truly wonderful place.

Hi Nathan

Welcome to the site where you will find lots of similar thinking people. Glad you enjoyed it.

Do you mean Freddie at the Lamon, lovely guy very infectious and one of Plakias's characters, he also looks after the 'Far end' beds during the day.

I agree, it is in a good position, I was in the Flisvos Rooms next door this year and had one of the rooms at the front, enjoyed it immensely.

Hi George, thanks for the welcome.

Yes his name was Freddie not Frankie. Course it was, tut, silly me. We saw him a few times down the far end ourselves, although i must admit we didn't have the nerve to strip off so felt a little out of place at first. Nobody seemed to mind us though and it's such a lovely spot. I went up the hill up into all the caves and also climbed to the top, beautiful view from up there of the whole bay.

What date were you out there yourself?


Cheers

Hi this is my first post.

My girlfriend and i have just returned from Plakias and we stayed at the Lamon. As has been mentioned elsewhere on this forum, the plumbing is a little poor and the rooms very basic, but after a couple of days we fell in love with the place. It has real charm.

The staff are all very nice, especially Frankie who serves the late drinks, he's a real character. The food isn't really up to much there though to be honest, breakfast is very basic. The chef seems a little inexperienced, but when you have so many other restaurants literally seconds away it's not really an issue.

The location couldn't be better in my opinion. Right by a couple of supermarkets and the beach is ten seconds across the road. The view is simply stunning from the front of the hotel.

I would definitely return there and i'm one hundred percent certain i'm going back to Plakias as soon as i can.

I nearly cried when we had to leave the other day. I've never enjoyed anywhere as much as i have Plakias. What a truly wonderful place.
