About this property

Villa on Hilltop Estate

Classic old villa built in 1905 with 180 degree ocean views. This property includes a Main House and a Guest House, each can accommodate up to 4 people. We are able to host up to 8 people maximum.

Villa Askedra is located on the mainland of Peloponneses, directly across of Poros Island. The property is privately situated near the waterfront at the Harbor Entrance on 7 acres of hillside.

The property offers old-world charm (original tile floors, decorative fireplace, antiques, piano) with commanding and unobstructed views of the harbor, Poros Island, the Saronic Gulf, surrounding mountains, and other islands nearby. The home provides complete privacy and is sheltered by tall pine trees and cypress trees. Lemon, almond and olive trees can also be found on the property.

The villa is located in an ideal environment that is quiet, yet is only a 10 minute walk to town and a 2 minute water taxi ride to Poros Island for shopping, beaches, restaurants, and nightlife. There are two large porch areas to relax and dine while enjoying the sunrise and sunsets, and view of the harbor entrance and boats passing by (the West Porch area is completely covered and sheltered by the sun). Perfect for couples, families, or those preferring a retreat-like setting. Cleaning and linen changes are included in the cleaning fee, and our favorite local cook is available to either deliver authentic greek cuisine or cook on site and at reasonable rates. Different meals can be arranged in advance and according to dietary restrictions.

Wunderbare 100 Jahre alte Familienvilla.
Wunderbare 100 Jahre alte Familienvilla mit besonderer Geschichte. Entrückt von Stadt und Straßenverkehr auf einem kleinen Hügel mit altem Baumbestand und traumhaftem Blick auf den Hafen von Poros. Wenige hundert Meter vom lebendigen Städtchen Galatas entfernt mit Tavernen, Bäcker und vielen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

A Greek home from home
The most BEAUTIFUL villa we had all stayed in. We were a group of friends/couples aged 25, 26 and 27 and we absolutely loved it. Yako is amazing at communicating and gave us so many recommendations. The couple looking after the property who live near by were just divine and we had a delicious home cooked meal cooked by them. A very memorable holiday in an extremely historical villa surrounded by gorgeous beaches, swimming and people. Thank you Yako it was so lovely.

Ett boende med karaktär.
Ett genuint grekiskt boende. Kanske inte supermodernt men ett intressant hus med en speciell historia som man kan läsa om i en gästbok och fin arkitektur. Fantastisk utsikt över Poros och perfekt avstånd mellan byn Galatas och bad. Enjoy!!

Why they chose this property

Our family has been visiting the Poros area since family members first vacationed here in the early 1900s. Our great grandparents resided in Athens and first visited the home in the summer of 1918 when it was used as a rental. They were able to purchase it just a few years later. We feel fortunate that the home remains in the family, and we continue to make trips and vacation here.

What makes this property unique

We enjoy the location and privacy that the property offers, while still being close to the town and near everything the area has to offer. We love being right at the harbor entrance and all the activity of the boats arriving and departing from/to neighboring islands, including the local fisherman. Grabbing a meal or visiting the beach couldn't be easier and within walking distance or a short drive.
