Things to do: Too tired today? Walk on down to the rocks and swim in our secluded cove that only the locals know about. Snorkeling or diving is incredible here in the deep blue waters of the Aegean (10-50 m). So, you are not that good of a swimmer?

Additionally along there are several excellent beach clubs, family-oriented to keep your teenagers and little kids occupied.


You don’t want to go anywhere today! No problem, stick around the pool and enjoy the view. Put a couple of steaks on the grill, enjoy a cold beer and feel right at home! We promise you!

The boardwalks of Nea Makri (20-minute drive) and Marathonas beach are great for evening outings for ice cream, a drink, pizza etc.

We enjoyed our stay here and the managers were very nice. The view can’t be beat and the pool is more beautiful in person. The pool was too cold to swim in every day in July. The balcony was our favorite place. The beds were sort of hard but some like that. The master is a queen, bedroom 2 was queen but felt bigger. Bed 3 was a full. The single beds in the downstairs bedroom are cots. Our teens couldn’t sleep there. One slept on the couch in second floor sitting room. It was ok, but no air. Plenty of sheets and towels. Kitchen very serviceable. As others have stated, the property is outdated and a little run down. Our biggest pet peeve was the fact that we couldn’t flush tp. Since there’s no housekeeping, we had to empty the bathroom cans ourselves. That was unexpected at this caliber of rental. We had a great time overall.

Very nice stay
Marika, who was in charge of giving us the keys, was very resposive and helpful. She gave us valuable about the house and surroundings. We were 3 couples staying there and enjoyed the breathtaking view, the pool and terrace. The big kitchen enabled us to cook tasty meals everyday. Just one point: the bedrooms are not equal at all in terms of size, view and amenities, so be prepared to draw straws!

Stunning villa and pool with breath-taking views.
The photos do not do this villa justice! We loved our stay here. The villa was spotlessly clean, well-equipped and comfortable. The pool is amazing - much larger than average and the views are incredible. Marika was so kind, welcoming and helpful. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.

Honest review - amazing property but dishonest description!
100% honest review. The villa truly is a very nice property - however the description is sugarcoated. If you’re staying at this villa you need a car - you cannot “leave the driving to the Greeks”. It is very remotely located and just getting to a very small mini market requires driving. Athens is 1-1.5 hours away depending on the traffic and the subway to Athens is 50 minutes away from the house - not a bus ride away; you will need to drive 30 min to get to that bus first. The agency renting the villa out for the owner are AMAZING, they’re so professional and nice and they made our stay. However when we presented our complaints to the owner herself she refused to even hear us out - she felt like we were in the wrong for not “doing our homework”, and said the description clearly stated you need to rent a car. We did contact HomeAway and after Reading the description they fully agreed with us regarding the exaggeration of the proximity of everything. When you’re renting a luxury house for one week - you need to offer the guests that service and be service-minded. You have to take your guests complaints seriously rather than claim they are wrong and stupid. Our stay would have been amazing if the owner had just been honest about the car situation - we spent 2 days locked into the house - we could’ve rented a car when we first arrived in Athens but now we paid 250 euros for taxis from Athens + another 500 euros for the cars. Hence I want to warn everyone - if you want to be close to everything and if you want to have decent and professional contact with the owner - this isn’t the property for you. The villa itself is lovely but you’d be far safer renting it directly from the agency. I’d just like to end with a big thank you to the agency for being so amazing!
