Today David and I sat out on your deck, soaking up the winter sunshine and watching the reflections of sun on the water. It was very peaceful and relaxing and provided us with a much needed break from work. Thank you for your kindness. We appreciate you watching out for us the night that we were lost and bringing us here to your home. The house has been perfect and the views of the sea and the countryside are wonderful. Thank you, Farhana and David December 29, 2011

The philosofist Wittgenstein once said that all that can be said can be said clearly. That certainly is true for all comments of Xenophons house and hospitality. We had a great stay. Thank you Xenophon for letting us stay in your wonderfull house. Thank you for your hospitality, your country, for letting us enjoy the impressive culture, and, not the least, the beautiful weather and the sandy beaches.

Marathon Retreat

Our group of 9 stayed at the villa while 5 of us ran the Athens Classic Marathon. The house was most comfortable and well appointed. We were all so comfortable there. It was a great getaway! The views from the top deck are fantastic. Communication from the owner and his property manager were most excellent. The property manager communicated with us before our visit and met us upon our arrival. Her husband (who runs a tour and taxi business) looked after our wives while we ran the marathon. Travel to Athens, Delphi and to the Temple of Posiden was very easy from the villa. The beach was close and most enjoyable. If you want to see Athens (and surrounding area) and don't want to stay in the city you should consider this property. You get a view, peace and quiet, and a feeling of safety and security. Great place!

As it is impossible to capture in a photograph the beauty surrounding this place it is equally difficult putting into a few words what the time spent here meant to us. We leave with many photographs and stories of our travels to share with family and friends. Burt more importantly we return home with a new understanding of the richness and yet simplicity that is reflected in the people of this country. We will remember , the time spent on the veranda, looking out at the sea and also the evening of the “locals” ( a small hairless fox) stopped by to share a meal. Even though our photo collection will contain many images of the destinations in Greece; memories of this beautiful place will be what fills our hearts, until we are able to return. Many thanks to all, who had a part in making our stay at Villa MoonRay such an exceptional experience. With kind regards

Me and my family spend two marvellous weeks of visiting ancient monuments under a burning sun, and then relaxing here in a gentle breeze. Although the terrace was the one thing we were looking forward to, the real view still astonished us, as it could easily match up to the ones from Delphi and the Acropolis (especially at night). With its clear starry sky, the bright big moon illuminating the sea and the city in the background, this view alone would have been reason enough to come here. Beside this 'expected highlight', this house offered us a few ones which we didn't expect. So although there is an air conditioner in nearly every room, we only needed them once in our two week stay, thanks to a constant and mostly gentle breeze cooling the house in a natural way. Then we found out that the kitchen even exceeded our own in a few aspects. And last but not least, the shy friendly fox sometimes appearing at the back door and craving for a bit meat or egg in a manner that you can not overlook him. Well so much to the place, now to the person. Xenophon, you were a brilliant host with your friendly, merry attitude and your well balanced English. You were there when we needed you and took care of everything but at the same time left us enough room to breath. We really appreciate your efforts, both the ones that lead to this wonderful house and the ones that made our stay such a special experience and can only say 'Thank you'.
