The villa was perfect for our large group. The views were beautiful and location was good if you are looking for a guiet holiday. The pool and outside area was perfect for spending the day at the villa with a big BBQ for dinner. The villa was large and modern inside. All bedrooms had air con and there are plenty of bathrooms that there was no queuing for the shower in the morning. Kitchen had everything we could have needed. Location of the villa was perfect of you are looking for a quiet holiday. Withing walking distance of 2 towns, however we woild recommend renting a car as we spent a lot of time in taxis as the walk to the shops was up hill and very hot in June sunshine! Would defimitely reccommend this villa for large families and groups of friends.

We have had the MOST fabulous stay at Villa Athena to celebrate a big birthday. The villa was full (12) and worked perfectly for us - both just to hang out in by the pool and for the main event. The Villa is well set up and the accommodation is very comfortable. Catering for that number of people was easy in the well appointed and equipped kitchen and the space provided meant that no one felt they were cramped. This is topped off by the infinity pool - which was at the perfect temperature for the time of year - and the fabulous view of Navaronne Point. The interior design is very pleasing and all is well maintained and in working order. The local beaches are many and varied in Lindos and Pefkos and for that quick dip in the early evening the sea can be reached on foot! Furthermore the Island provided ample attractions - boat trips, walks and the Acropolis in Lindos to name but a few - and fine choice of good restaurants for those evenings and lunches when you want to chill in Lindos, Pefkos and Kiotari. In short - we thoroughly enjoyed the Villa and I can't think of one thing that fell short of our expectations.

We had a fabulous week in Villa Athena for our summer holiday. We had been to Lindos a few years back and always said we would go back as it such as beautiful place. Our 2nd visit didn't disappoint. Blue skies, sunny days and lots of lazing by the pool or on the beach, interspersed with excessive eating and drinking in one of the many great tavernas within striking distance of the villa. The villa itself was beautiful, set high up on the hillside with incredible views out over the sea and the imposing cliffs. Everything was perfect and the owners were a pleasure to deal with - we asked lots of questions before booking and they responded to all of them with patience and good humour. Our kids are already set on going back next year. Highly recommended for anyone who likes peace and quiet with a bit of luxury thrown in.

We stayed a week in the villa in August with 2 families (including 4 children ranging between 6-10 yrs old). The villa was very well situated - close to Lindos town - an idyllic village with great shops and amazing restaurants - ranging from the cheap & cheerful tavernas to upmarket restaurants with amazingly diverse & delicious menus. The villa is close to many beautiful beaches where we enjoyed fun activities such as sailing, water parks with slides, water skiing asking amongst others. We enjoyed our excursions on foot to the luxury hotel at the bottoms of the hill for a spot of shopping in the fantastic boutique, relaxing massage and cocktails by the beach. The villa itself has an amazing infinity pool overlooking a beatiful bay and plenty of (outdoor) space for children to run around in, play football, beach tennis, etc. The villa is beautifully decorated - great attention to detail and lovely artefacts everywhere in the house. Good bathrooms with properly working showers, comfortable beds, luxury towels and linen. The kitchen is well designed and very well equipped including a brilliant fridge with ice maker. There is a big tv with DVD player and a good internet/wifi network connection. The airconditioning in every room was a real blessing as sleeping without it would have been a challenge at the height of summer. All in all we had a fantastic time and will define go back for a repeat!

We were all excited about returning to the beautiful villa Athena for a second year and we were not disappointed. The villa is exactly as described with clean, comfortable rooms, wonderfully furnished and giving a real sense of home which immediately makes you feel relaxed. The layout of the pool, so close to the outside dining space, is perfect for manoeuvring yourself effortlessly from the morning’s sun bathing and swimming to the table for lunch in the shade. The steps down to the pool provide easy access for anyone with reduced mobility (we had octogenarians in our party who swam each day) and a popular place to sit and cool yourself in the shade from the afternoon sun. Plus, the view from here is stunning, right out over Navarone Bay, where you can watch small boats going to and fro and the lights twinkling in the evening. Cooking facilities at the villa are excellent with a well fitted kitchen and outdoor BBQ. Further afield, Lindos and its wonderful restaurants are in easy reach by taxi, which are reasonably priced and always readily available despite us needing two or three at a time to cope with our numbers. Our favourite place was the restaurant and beach at Pefkos where we enjoyed hiring a boat and then discussing our exploits over some very good food. Alex, the manager, was really helpful and did everything to make our stay enjoyable. Even to the point where, at the end of the holiday, one of us left an iPad behind. Alex immediately contacted us and kindly delivered it to a place several miles away where we were able to retrieve it. Villa Athena offers something for everyone (our party’s ages ranged from mid 80’s to 6) and we would definitely recommend this beautiful place to family and friends.

Villa Athena was perfect for 3 families; each family could be on a different floor with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom each. The kitchen was well-equipped for 11 of us and the TV and sound system were great. The house is well situated - a 5 minute drive to Lindos, beaches, and all water sports very nearby. Sightseeing, boat trips and fantastic restaurants close by too.

We were a group of friends and family celebrating a major birthday. The villa was perfect for our needs. A real treat. Plenty of space, comfortable beds, fantastic views and best of all the ice maker. We want one at home now. The house is well provisioned with everything you need. A great pool, plenty of sun loungers and an outside BBQ. We ate in all the recommended restaurants and were not disappointed. The beach in front is definitely worth a visit. The local boats stop there to snorkel. Its crystal clear and great for swimming. We also chartered a yacht one day - Yin Yang which was the highlight of the week. The brochures are in the draw.
