About this property

Acropolis Sky Villa: Make some family memories - 7bd/6ba views W/D Walk to sites

Finding space for a big family or group in Athens can be tricky — until now.
Welcome to the Acropolis SkyVilla, a one-of-a-kind 7-bedroom, 6-bath duplex penthouse designed for gathering, celebrating, and relaxing in style.

From sunrise coffee to sunset cocktails, your private terrace offers 360° views of the Acropolis, Mount Lycabettus, and the Athenian skyline. Inside, the open-plan living area combines the warmth of a true home with the comfort of a boutique hotel — perfect for family reunions, wedding groups, or friends traveling together.

You’ll stay steps from neighborhood cafés, bakeries, and metro access, yet above it all in your own light-filled urban retreat.

The space

Spread across two levels, the SkyVilla offers generous living and dining areas, a fully equipped kitchen, and plenty of natural light. French doors open to wraparound balconies, while upstairs a landscaped rooftop terrace invites long dinners under the stars and unforgettable photos with the Parthenon in view.

Layout overview
• Main level: Five bedrooms (four open to balcony or veranda)
• Upper level: Two bedrooms opening directly onto the terrace

Sleeping arrangements
Bedroom 1 – Queen + Twin, en-suite bath (sleeps 3)
Bedroom 2 – Queen + 3 Twins (sleeps 5)
Bedroom 3 – Double bed (sleeps 2)
Bedroom 4 – Queen + Twin bed (sleeps 3) – shares a sliding door with Bedroom 3
Bedroom 5 – Queen + Twin bed (sleeps 3)

🌀 The two floors are connected by an internal spiral staircase; for luggage or those who prefer, there’s also a wide marble staircase just outside the apartment door.

great stay!

Loved this place - it's perfect for a multi-generation family. Carole and Basil were amazing to work with - we had a large group and the accommodations were ideal - as were the pace of our mostly food focused activities (though our Acropolis guide was terrific. Thanks Carole and Basil - we hope some of us will be back to explore more places in Greece - and we'll be working with Real Greece Travel again.

Awesome place and people

The apartment is really nice. We took the option of alpha plus beta, and lived in it very comfortably as a group of 13 people. Everything in the place is very nice and well maintained - great kitchen supplies, nice beds, lots of books to browse through etc. Carol and her associates were really nice and gave us many great suggestions about where to go, where to eat, et. Despite the fact that it was an Easter holiday weekend. In short - highly recommended!

Great place.

The place has all the comforts of home. Carole has thought of everything. It is not too far from the city center, it is less of a "touristy" area and the restaurants are very good and inexpensive. The bakery was wonderful and every morning we had a delicious breakfast. Carole set up some fabulous tours for us and she takes care of everything. I would highly recommend using her expertise. Loved the food tour of Athens, and the tour to Poseidon's Temple. Carole also found us a guide for the Acropolis, she was outstanding! I will continue to use her homes, I want to go to Chicago just to use her vacation rental!!

Amazing Place to Stay and Even Better People

The apartment was perfect for our group of 11. We spent 8 days in Athens and never got tired of such a nice place. The people we worked closely with were Carole, Basil and Nadia. What exceptional and caring people! If you have ANY question or concern, they are right on top of it. In additional to an extremely well maintained and stocked apartment, they provide excellent vacation planning. Their recommendations for tours, day trips, restaurants and activities were perfect. Never a problem! The people they work with match their compassion. Highly recommended to anyone wanting to visit Athens. The trip planning by Carole was such a hidden gem in this great vactation! Looking forward to another visit to Athens and the Acropolis Sky Villa!

Fantastic experience

The property was very accurately described, we were a party of 19 and we all fit in the 2 apartments nicely. The apartments were very well stocked, we lacked nothing. The location was great, walking distance to shopping, restaurants and some historical sites too. Communication was the hosts was superb, the best experience ever! Shout out to Danai, Carole and Basil as their knowledge of Athens was so helpful in planning activities, and they arranged everything for us as well. I highly recommend!

Athens for 19

Very well-kept apartment (s) in the heart of the city and within walking distance to many sites. With 19 family members we made use of both apartments, connected by a short hallway. Lovely “welcome basket”, spacious balconies with great city views. Plenty of bathrooms. Having transports, activities and restaurants booked for us was wonderful - doing that in a new place and for 19 people would have been beyond challenging. The guides and drivers were excellent, warm and friendly. One highlight in particular was our Greek meal cooking lesson for all 19 of us, with two chefs coming to the apartment. Everyone very much enjoyed themselves. Very friendly and helpful apartment owners/travel planners. Highly recommended.

Ideal stay in Athens

We were a family of 16 ranging in age from 10 to 77. The layout of 7 BR’s allowed everyone to spread out while enjoying a central area. The Location was great and all the major sites were accessible by foot. Danai was incredibly helpful and cooked us a Greek meal which was great fun. If you’re a large group and want to be in the middle of Athens highlights, this property is an excellent choice.

Amazing place for large groups

This was our second time to bring a large group of us to stay in this home. They have made some changes that made it even better than before--codes to get into the building and apartment (wonderful to not have to keep up with keys!), some new beds, and other renovations. Carole was incredible to work with and we sure hope to be back again next year! Highly recommend this place and any place that Carole and Basil host. :)

Experience Athens like a local

We were are family of six spending Christmas in Athens. The location is amazing, you are right in the middle of a neighborhood with grocery, restaurants and shops steps away. And it was possible to walk/take a tram to all of the sights. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything needed to eat in, the washer and dryer came in handy. We used Carol's driver to and from the airport which I highly recommend.

Great location and views

We had a great time in Athens and loved the Sky Villa. It was in a good location convenient to the most popular sections for shopping and eating and felt like we were with the locals experiencing Athens the way they do every day. The Villa was extremely clean and well kept, and had everything we needed in the way of conveniences, connectivity, appliances, etc. The best part was Carol's tips and suggestions for what to do and where to eat, how to get around and great tours. Her partners for the transportation and tours were outstanding and well worth the fees. I highly recommend the Sky Villa to anyone traveling to Greece.

About the host

Host profile image
Basil and I are full time travel professionals, we offer our Athens properties here but we also run a custom travel planning agency, RealGreece Travel, so we know what quite a bit about hospitality (as mixed culture couple (Basil, born and bred in Athens, Carole, born & bred in Chicago) we understand that quirks in Greece and know how to help our guests get the most out of their Greece experience.
For those who choose our Greek Vacation Rentals, you are staying in an intentional holiday home. You won't find anyone's clothes in the drawers but you will find lots of things provided with travelers in mind (some of which are secrets we choose not to share here since that's what makes us special :-)

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

We know from our years in the vacation rental business in Greece, finding one property that sleeps a large group is a challenge - most of what you will find advertised as "6 bedroom" or more bedrooms, is often a building with several 2 bedroom apartments. This is fine if you're all not planning on hanging out together inside the vacation rental property. But if you want space to gather together, in ONE APARTMENT, the Acropolis Sky villa is your place.

We are always there for you!! Communication prior to arrival and trhough check-out will be via a private WhApp chat group that we setup for your group. For larger non-family groups, we request everyone be added to it - this avoids issues with arrival, check-in and offers you immediate responses from our team during your stay. This ensures a great stay!
