Consider yourself extremely fortunate if you can book this apartment, especially if you visit Athens in the summer. The private pool and amazing bird's eye view of Acropolis, Mount Lycabettus and all of Athens would be enough to thrill you, but Vassilis' home is spacious, chic, clean and very comfortable. Located in Kalafati, a terrific neighborhood that's within a 20 minute walking distance to everything, this location is just out of the fray enough to be a calm and quiet oasis. (Returning uphill was a challenge but we never actually needed to take a taxi) We thoroughly enjoyed our stay especially returning after a hot day of sightseeing to cool AC followed by relaxing in the refreshing pool and two large terraces. Vassilis is an extremely gracious host who gave us recommendations on where to eat, shop, and visit as well as warmly greeting us with an extra early check in. This is the place to stay in Athens!
