As a vegetarian, I found this trip to Plakias a little difficult to find good food.
We took a chance tonight and I was delighted- Theo in front of house encouraged us in to take a look and toured us around the buffet so we decided to stay and eat.
The food was amazing- a great selection of fresh tasty food.
All the staff we enthusiastic, friendly and happy to help. So much so we are now looking to book to stay next year.
Theo is a great ambassador for this this family run hotel.
