Reviews of Prickly Pear House

Everything was perfect, the location was very central. The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed, we had the best time! The sunrise was phenomenal. Thank you so much, was so lovely to meet you!

Great location just outside the busyness of the plaka with a stunning view.

Be careful with google maps. It takes you close, but not close enough. (A lane below our final destination) we called Mirto our host who arrived immediately.

Location was great

The bed was atrocious. It felt like the base of a bed. We had to leave. Didn't sleep all night.

The location was great - easy walking distance into town.

We’re sorry to say we were really disappointed with this accommodation. The bed was extremely uncomfortable - we barely slept the first night and later discovered that the bed slats had shifted, leaving no support in the middle. The overall cleanliness wasn’t great, e.g. the coffee machine and the floors pictured and there was a faint smell of tobacco throughout the space. We also hadn’t realised from the listing that our bathroom was separate from the room - which would have been fine except the outside terrace was shared with others, which made the whole setup feel quite lacking in privacy. One of the main reasons we chose this place, was because of the garden pictured in the photos but that garden actually belongs to a different apartment and was being used by another family. So the small part of the property you have access to is a communal space - which wasn’t clearly explained in the listing. The location, however, is a definite plus, just a short walk into town - but overall, the property didn’t match our expectations or the way it was presented online.

The location was incredible. Just a short stroll up to Plaka Village meant this was the perfect place to base ourselves for our first Milos adventure. The little kitchen saved us from eating out all the time and had everything that we needed. And great communication with our host. Highly recommend.

Great location in Plaka with amazing view. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating

Exactly as advertised. The room is small but everything is fine and the location is perfect. Free parking is useful, despite it being up a big hill! Lovely view over Milos from the front door/terrace area. The host was very welcoming and friendly, plus helped us when we got lost financing the property.

Nothing, it is as advertised, no surprises!

Fabulous host , fabulous accomodation very close to Plaka town to restaurants cafes and bars Highly recommend

Nothing

Gorgeous view, central location, well stocked room.

This location was great and the view from the room was amazing. Everything that you needed was in the room and the owner was very kind. She was very helpful and answered all our questions.

The hot water runs out really fast.

I had an amazing stay there, you’ve made it really special by giving me all the good tips to get the most wonderful experience of Plaka and the surrounding Your apartment was so good, everything I needed was there, Thanks for your hospitality, it has been awesome

Nice apartment with a beautiful view! The host was very friendly and helpful.2 minutes walk for plaka center.We will certainly book this accommodation again when we go to Milos.

Amazing view

Everything! The location, the balcony, the decor, the host - everything was perfect!

Nothing!

great location right in the center of plaka it has beautiful restaurants and shops nearby .the host gave us useful information about sights and places

Great Plaka location Location, friendly host with nice tips, cozy room and great view

The host was wonderful and gave us several amazing recommendations over the course of our stay. This property is also located proximate to some great restaurants and bars, so it's ideal for exploring nightlife in Plaka. I would highly recommend these accommodations as an affordable option.

The beds were a bit hard, but I found that to be standard in Greece.

This property truly was unbeatable, I couldn’t fault it. It had every amenity you needed for a stay in Milos, right down to the pegs on the clothes horse. It also was situated in the best possible spot on the island. We were able to easily stroll to Plaka for dinners in the evening or to watch the sunset from the castle & we’re close to every other island hotspot during the day via our ATV rental. There was also free, private parking for the ATV at the end of the driveway from the property which was so easy. The host went above and beyond with so many things & really looked after her guests, with recommendations on where to go on the island, too spots to eat etc. one of a kind stays & I couldn’t recommend here enough.

The location was perfect, in Plaka and a stones throw from restaurants, shops and sunset views but very quiet. Our host, Mirta, couldn't have been more helpful or kind. We loved the homemade chutney gifted to us! The bed was comfortable, the room well equipped, the outdoor space was great with beautiful sunrise views. Parking is nearby in Plaka's car park and also near the bus stop. We loved our stay and would recommend!

The only thing missing was a few hooks or somewhere to hang clothes.
