About this villa rental

Villa Eleni is situated at the top of a hill, 400 meters (0.24 miles) from the Legrena beach.
Legrena is the first village from the world-famous ancient Temple of Poseidon, the God of the Sea, at Sounio.
Legrena is an ideal base from where you can explore the city of Athens, the Parthenon, the islands via Ferryboat from the ports of Lavrio or Rafina or via a private boat that you can rent from the nearby Olympic Marina.
The surroundings of the property are olive groves, and a few other beautiful summer houses. Located at a no-outlet street, nothing interrupts this house's tranquility, serenity and privacy.
The property consists of:
1. The main house, 350 sq. m, or 3,770 sq. feet
2. 4,125 sq. m or 44,401 sq. feet of land with palms, fruit trees, decorative plants
3. Covered parking for 3 cars
The main house consists of 3 floors. The main entrance is at the middle floor. There is also a second entrance at the first floor which gives the lower house an absolute privacy.

We booked Villa Eleni as a base to invite family and friends from the UK and we were not disappointed. The villa had everything we needed (and more). Internally the space works excellently for families / friends with everyone having space and privacy yet ample room to get together. Externally the pool was a huge hit. Minor queries we had were responded to and resolved very quickly. We arranged for housekeeping between our guests and Maria did an amazing job and the pool and grounds were maintained beautifully. We loved the local area - great restaurants/coffee shop and bakers in the village and in Lavrio. We rotated between sandy and snorkelling beaches which kept everyone happy. An easy drive to Ellininka and metro to Athens made for a stress free visit. Honestly, we cannot rate Villa Eleni highly enough. We had the most wonderful, relaxing 5 weeks. Thank you

We visited in late May 2024 for a family holiday (mum, dad, 17, 14 and 9 year old children); and were delighted by the large, light and spacious villa with a fabulously large deep pool which is circa 3 minutes drive from a large sandy, clean beach. There are two small shops and several very nice seafood restaurants in the local village less than 3 minutes drive away (or 15-minutes walk), and we were less than an hour away from Athens and 20 minutes from Lavrio, with plenty of holiday towns in between. Eleni and family were on hand to answer any questions and help out whenever required. In short this is a fantastic location for a family holiday and we would love to return one way in the future.

Stunning villa on a grand scale in a brilliant location with panoramic sea view. Well equipped and and spotlessly clean too. Our hosts made every effort to ensure our stay was comfortable despite the massive thunderstorms and gales! Great location with plenty of very good restaurants to choose from. Poseidon's Temple is well worth a visit with its spectacular location. Thanks to Eleni and her lovely family.

Even though the temperatures were very high, our holidays were great and the Villa was fabulous, I recommend it! Nothing special to change or improve on the Villa itself. The owner and the persons in charge of the Villa were very kind.

We had a truly memorable stay at Villa Eleni. Everything you need is here and it was spotless. Communication with Eleni is excellent which is reassuring too. The location is wonderful; there are several restaurants and a bakery and mini market accessible on foot so you don’t need to drive everywhere. The temple of Poseidon is a must see and only 10-minutes’ drive away. The climb up the mountains behind the villa is also a good thing to do if you’ve older children. The villa is so luxurious and the pool is the icing on the cake. We all slept very well and felt very relaxed and it was a blessing to spend time together, watch movies and read in such a quiet and peaceful spot. Thank you to Eleni, Theo and Maria and families. We really hope to visit again!

This villa is very comfortable and very private. The pool is impressively large and all amenities are generous. The neighbourhood was very quiet in early September so that small coves and nearby beaches easy to drive to and park. We ate out every night in many local Tavernas and enjoyed a trip to Lavrio and the temple of Poseidon and also an afternoon trip to Athens. We would be happy to return.

This is a fantastic villa, set up like a family home rather than a rental property. Lots of room for two families, aircon in all the right rooms, great kitchen and the best swimming pool we've ever had at a villa. Most of it is about 3m deep so great for diving. Views from the 2 balconies are better than you see in the photos, they are also shaded so you can use them all day. At night the clear skies make for great stargazing from the top floor. Communications with Eleni prior to arrival were great and her wonderful parents Zoi and Spyros were there to meet us, show us around the house and even gave us a tour of Legrena. The town has about a half dozen taverna's that serve really good local food at fantastic prices. You can walk to town on a quiet back road in just over 10 minutes. Not many foreign tourists around Legrena so it feels a lot different to most holiday spots in a way that we thought much better. Drop into George in the bakery beside restaurant Theodore and Helens and get him to convince you to buy some of their super pastries with feta and sun-dried tomatoes. He might even treat you to some of his local Greek hooch which will leave a spring in your step. Nearby towns of Annavisos and Lavrion have lots of restaurants and supermarkets, only about 15 min drive each. Across the main road from the villa there are a couple of beaches with bars serving drinks and snacks. Try Kape beach bar, they do nice pizzas for lunch and it was our favourite beach down a few steps. A few minutes up the road is Poseidon's temple, well worth a look. There is a really nice looking hotel there, Cape Sounion I think, which we will definitely visit when we go back to this villa next year. Last thing: the weather was perfect, 30-35 Deg daytime and high 20's in the evening but with a constant breeze so we rarely felt too hot unless you choose to go out in the mid-day sun.
