Well I must say that the advice and tips received from all of you helped to make our "short" holiday most enjoyable!! 9 Days was not enough, I think 9 years would do the trick.
We thought due to the relative non-reaction of this forum that something would be strange about our accomodation, the Kalypso Cretan Village. Turns out that it is totally booked by a French tour operator with the exception of a few bookings through ANSO. Still it's a nice place with spectacular views and diving.
As for the rest of Plakias, tis a truly wonderful place still relatively unspoilt, that took us back to so many places in Greece some 20 odd years ago. Nice people with good attitudes, good food generally and in some places still home cooked at prices that whilst not cheap still offer great value for money. This whole section of the coast is a paradise, with just about as many beaches of every type as anyone could wish for. We did however, love the far end at Plakias and spent most of our time there. Thanks for all your pointers guys, we will definitely go back again if the chance arises.
