It was much easier than expected to reach the property. The whole place is charming, well mentained and has all the ammenities to feel comfortable. We highly appreciated having the option to call a handy-man (thank you Ahmed) whenever we needed. The beach is right in front of you, clean and quiet. A 10 minutes drive will get you to Nea Styra where you can do all your shoppings or enjoy a nice dinner in one of it’s tavernas. A big, warm thank you to our gentle and welcoming host, who made all these possible!

This house is absolutely great! Very spacious and plenty of room. The yard is huge and the views are unbeatable! Peppy, our host was fantastic! Every question we had was answered very promptly. One remark I would make it would be the location, it is absolutely great and not so great at the same time. What I mean is that you’d definitely need a car to go anywhere as it’s pretty far from the town, but that also makes it very private and isolated which we really enjoyed. We were 10 adults and a 6 yeah old and we had plenty of space to gather together. We absolutely loved it and definitely recommend it for big families.

We were 3 families and had a terrific stay! The location is just amazing and the house is ideal for a large group. All kind of requests or problems were resolved immediately by Peppy. We will definitely come back! Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

Nous avons passé 2semaines en août avec la famille ,12 personnes,dans cette belle maison où chacun a trouvé très facilement sa place. Magnifiques vues,très grand jardin directement sur une plage très peu fréquentée et idéale pour des enfants. Peppy nous à trouver une charmante cuisinière qui a beaucoup facilité notre séjour. V Tout le monde a été enchanté et nous espérons pouvoir revenir.

Villa Athena is a truly unique and special place where my husband and I got married! The villa itself has been designed by an artist and it shows in all of the beautiful details throughout. It is full of character and rustic charm and the photos don’t do justice to the enormity of the space inside. All of the rooms have individual themes and lots of the rooms have views out to the sea. The space within the villa is endless and can comfortably house large groups, with two kitchen areas and two lounge areas on separate floors which was ideal for us as we were accommodating two families for the wedding. Peppy has been fantastic. Of course planning a wedding abroad has it’s challenges and while organising from the UK Peppy offered great support throughout. On the day of the wedding and the lead up she went above and beyond to ensure that our day was perfect and we cannot thank her enough! The outside space is great and was perfect for our wedding setting. The garden area is huge and there are lots of different spaces to enjoy, from the BBQ and dining area in the garden, to the sunbathing space and an upstairs veranda with additional dining table. Although there is no pool the garden leads directly to the beach area which is great and very quiet and the sea is lovely to swim in. The location of the villa is also great, a ten minute drive from the town with lots of restaurants, shops etc. In summary the place is amazing and Peppy is a fantastic host, we will definitely be returning.

First impression - house/property looks much, much better in person - than on VRBO posting pictures. Huge house, large property easily fits 16 people with all daily demands. Very well maintained and equipped, nicely decorated with attention to details. Beautiful views.Two kitchens worked great for full house. Large BBQ area fits 20 people. Two external showers to wash out send. Lot of parking space too. Yard is well maintained, with two covered decks located basically on the beach, and hammock between olive trees. House is pretty much ON the beach, and kids were circulating in and out all day long. We had beach for ourselves whole 2 weeks. Owners were kind and accommodating, accessible on the cell/text. Wifi was occasionally unreliable, but we didn't care much. As another guest pointed out - last 300m to the home are not easy drive but I'd pick bad access over busy beach any day. Nea Styra (10 min drive) offers good options for grocery shopping and eating out as well. If you want privacy and size to fit large family/group - this is the perfect place.

Overall house is amazing and very spacious...Host is extremely accommodating and helpful throughout our stay...only watch-out is that you will definitely need a rental car for this location as the nearest grocery store is ~10 mins away so make sure you get one and one with a bit of a ground clearance as the last ~100m of the road to the house is a bit rocky... overall a great and relaxing experience.

Great location for those who seek peaceful "on the beach" holiday. The villa is large with lots of privacy for everyone and uniquely designed. Together with the welcoming hospitality makes it all a perfect holiday.
