We were 5 recently retired couples from all over the USA going on a cruise out of Athens. We all flew in a different times and spent 2 nights at Afrodite’s Mansion with JJ’s. Excellent place for us. Clean, nicely appointed. We spent a lovely evening on the deck. Each couple had their own space. Perfect. The downstairs “twin bed” room would be more ideal for kids but the area was SO COOL! They did a great job getting us in a little early which was great. Thank you!!

The property is perfect. We were 3 couples and 3 children. What really stood out was the Location! We were walking distance to all the main attractions like the Acroplis, Syntagma square, Monastiraki, etc. Our hosts were reachable via text and phone whenever we needed them and went out of there way to accomodate our arrival and departure schedules. Lots of shopping and food options right outside the property's front door. A hidden gem of a coffee shop and snack bar called Sugar or Spice is just to the left as you exit the front door with a cozy courtyard and seating. The coffee there was divine and some of the best in Athens. As for the property, the accommodations were top notch, ice cold AC in every room and a wonderful rooftop with view of the acroplis. Will stay here again! Thank you JJ Properties for accomodating is and making or stay in Athens a memorable one.

We can’t begin to express how much we enjoyed the beautiful home, the perfect location and our gracious hosts. All went better than we had reason to hope and we wish to thank our hosts for sharing a well-maintained, clean and easy to enjoy home.

We had a very uncomfortable stay at this property. The bathrooms were very poorly constructed and incredibly small. The toilet seat was so close to the tub that no one could use that one properly on the living room floor. We were told the shower head needed replacement but then they could not send anyone to fix it so we could not use. The top floor shower head was facing the wall and we had to hold it just to get a proper shower. There was a break in the head so some water just spewed out. The beds felt like box springs only. The second floor bedrooms did not block out any noise and there was plenty until 3am every night. The bottom floor we also didn't use because my daughter was meant to sleep on the twin but the staircase had no hand rails going from the living room floor to the basement which is obviously a fall hazard by all standards. The kitchen had scant supplies with regards to utensils. The overall quality was very poor of the home. it was a huge disappointment overall. Although some guests use the bottom floor bathroom just because they needed to, the drain falls outside so water was everywhere. The site states there is a clothes dryer. There is not one -- they are referring to drying your clothes on the top terrace. We have stayed in plenty of VRBOs in the past, and most in European cities. I understand the amenities are generally smaller but it was not at all comparable to others we have stayed in in Europe. Not worth the cost.

First time in Athens with a big group? Stay here! This home is set up as FOUR mini apartments and a sub level with twin beds all in one home so each set/family have their own private space! Each unit has a bathroom and 3 had kitchens. Great fridge space, coffee makers , glassware etc. beautiful patio roof. Quiet street amidst the hustle and bustle of Plaka. The management company was very responsive to my questions. The ONLY thing I would suggest is to use your own transportation company and not the one they use, FAME Transport. They charged us €120 to drive us 3 minutes (and we had to pay cash not credit card; My guess is because we would challenge the charge upon realizing their dishonesty). Yes Plaka is touristy, but we are indeed tourists. LOL. So many shops and restaurants...... walk a bit away from the Villa and discover some secret spots! One thing to note is that you cannot flush the toilet paper... weird, but manageable;) Enjoy your stay at Afroditis Mansion!

This property is perfect for a family or group of folks looking to explore the best of Athens! Nice rooms with separate sitting rooms and laundry. The rooftop deck has views of the Acropolis, which was wonderful to see at night. Walk to restaurants, shops, transport, museums, and the Acropolis.
