We were two families with children ages 3 to 12 who had only 36 hours to see all the top ancient sights. We wanted something large, comfortable, and centrally located, and this villa met all our requirements.
What we didn’t realize but were thrilled to discover was how modern and stylish the space is. The renovation is very well done, and all the bathrooms with showers was a huge plus with our families.
The rooftop terrace and amazing Acropolis view were enchanting, and we spent long evenings taking it in as the streets of Athens hummed with activity below.
One thing to note—and it could be a positive or negative depending on your tastes—is that the front stoop of the villa was a popular spot for buskers to perform. On both nights of our stay we had a serenade from different musicians. We enjoyed the live entertainment from the front balcony and got to sleep just fine when the time came.
We walked everywhere we wanted to go (Acropolis, temple of Olympian Zeus, Agora, and a handful of restaurants) within 15 minutes. This location cannot be beat, especially if you are short on time to visit Athens’ must-see sights.
And once you return for the day you’ll love the quiet oasis with incredible views. I highly recommend a stay here.
