Come to Greece and have a perfect holiday in the sun. See Athens and all it offers while you enjoy your vacation in our self catering vacation home by the sea. Have fun in the summer sun. Just walk out our front gate and enjoy a cool swim on a hot day just across the road at the famous Beach park of Agii Theodorii; There is no need to drive, take taxis, or ride the bus.

Unwind in the winter. Find pleasure in the solitude of nature with walks along the beautiful pathways in our park bordering the sea. Enjoy life and relax any time of the year; after all, that’s what vacations are all about. For the same price you will pay for a one bedroom Athens’ apartment, you can stay in our air conditioned beach cottage on the sea located within a 50 minute train ride to down town Athens. Both alternatives will give you Athens but WE include the sea,nature, privacy and space.

Our cottage is strategically located for guests who want to not only enjoy the beautiful beach and park, but explore the country side. Access to Athens, ancient Corinth and Saint Paul's church, Mycenea, Epidaurus, Delphi, Olympia, Sparta and many other places are within an easy single day trip.

Enjoy the village life of Greece. See the Greek culture from close up, without any tourist trappings or McDonalds. Go for fresh bread every morning, walk on the boardwalk with the many taverns, coffee shops and ice-cream places.

The ultra modern high speed train stops every hour during the day and gets you to downtown Athens in less than 50 minutes. The national road is within a 10 minute drive from the cottage. The bus for Athens or Corinth stops several times a day in front of the cottage. The buses (thanks to the Olympics) are brand new, air-conditioned (no smoking) and relatively inexpensive.

Here is what our cottage has to offer:
. 95 sq m of living space excluding the patio
. 2 air-conditioned bedrooms, individually controlled. Huge closets.
. Third bedroom with one single bed and couch that becomes a single bed, opens to living room with double doors. Ceiling fan.

  • Our family (a group of 7 including 2 small children) have just returned from a holiday staying at this beautiful cottage. The location in close proximity to the beach is the biggest plus of this property. It also has a large garden/relaxing area with table and chairs and a bbq. It also has a verrandah area for relaxing in the evening. The property is well equipped with linen, towles, cutlery, crockery, washing machine, dishwasher and much much more. The property is situated within walking distance of locals shops and restaurants. The train station is a 5 minute taxi ride to and from the property and is easily accessible from Athens. Overall we loved our stay here and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone that just wants a quiet retreat from their hectic lifestyle.

  • We had an absolutely wonderful time at the cottage. We were pleasantly surprised by the park and beach proximity as well as the ease to catching the train into Athens. The cottage was clean and well equiped for our family and we so enjoyed the privacy of the garden/yard. We also enjoyed the quaintness of the village. This is definitely a place we would come back to the next time we take the family to Athens.

    just wanted to say that we had a totally brilliant time at the cottage. It was ideally located to the town, beach, Athens and surrounding area and at the same time, was so quiet for sleeping. The garden with the citrus fruits was an added bonus and our daughter loved the fresh oranges on Christmas day. The restaurant across the road was superb and well recommended and our big thanks go to Natalie who met us and helped us a great deal. Overall, many thanks, a well recommended cottage for families and a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Best regards, Ed, Hana & Nathalie The Rowe Family

  • This was our second visit to the cottage - we were there previously two years ago. We were very happy with the improvements that had been made to the cottage since our earlier visit - these, together with the very much upgraded beach facilities made our stay most enjoyable. And, although not fully utilised, the ease of travel to many parts of Greece make this an excellent location to combine both a relaxed beach vacation together with one where you can explore history. The charm of the village is a further added plus - the people are so friendly and helpful which makes everything that much more pleasant. It was another holiday to remember.

    Review submitted by Paul from Waarder (Submitted: 13/08/2007 ) Review for: Family Beach Cottage near Athens (18027) "We had a great time in this luxurious and well equipped house for a family with children such as ours (3 small children). The location is excellent towards the pebble beach and the great beach restaurant on it. The location is great for exploring the region, Peloponessos and Athens. I could only imagine that the route description to the house is improved since it is hard to find! The location close to the beach and road makes it noisy, especially in the weekends. As I said, i would certainly recommend it." Value: Excellent , Met expectations: Exceeded them , Recommend: Definitely , Overall: Excellent

Accommodation 4/5 Amenities 5/5 Surroundings 4/5 Overall 4/5 Testimonial "Maison très bien situèe et impeccablement équipée. Pratique d'accès pour qui veut visiter à la fois le Péloponese et l'Attique et même faire un tour à Delphes. Une seule limite: il y a une route passante entre le bungalow et la plage ce qui peut être génant quand on a des enfants en bas age: ils ne peuvent aller à la plage seuls. La description est tout à fait conforme à la réalité" Will you advise a friend to rent it? Yes

    We really enjoyed staying at your house and appreciated that there were all the cleaning supplies and some regularly used food items already available to use. It was very nice to have a washer available so we didn't have to pack so many clothes. It was also nice that Natalie was there to meet us and give us some pointers and pick up some groceries for us. Stavros was excellent and we recommended him to our travel agent. Thank you again for the stay at your house. The Forsyths, Canada

  • My husband and I and our 19 yr. old daughter and 22 year old son stayed at this delightful cottage from Dec. 30,2006 to Jan. 6, 2007. My son turned 23 on Jan.3. What a thrill to be in ancient Corinth that birthday. The cottage was so comfortable and modern with a great kitchen to work in and nice dishwasher, stove and refrig. for food preparation so we didn't have to eat out all the time. When we arrived Despina's neice Natalie and her husband and son met us. They had brought some buns, butter , beer , coke and a New Years Traditional Cake with a gold coin inside. We tried to eat out on New years Eve but they were all private parties so we stayed home and had fun with our own dinner and then at midnight cut the cake to see who got the piece with the good luck coin. We enjoyed the fresh grapefruit, lemons and mini oranges growing in the yard. WE even used the grill outside one night and had a fire in the inside fireplace one night as well. It was too chilly to use the front porch for much more than hanging clean clothes out to dry. This cottage was so convenient with our rental car to drive to so many things. Despina gave us the name of a taxi driver who took us to Athens one day. It was a great way to get around. We just loved everything about our Greece vacation and the cottage was so comfortable with each child having their own room. If any future guests have any questions I would gladly answer them if I can. We want to come back again sometime. Thank you, Natalie, for all your help and answers to our many questions. And ,Despina, thank you for all your help. I hope some day we might get to meet. If you or any of your relatives want to come to So. Dakota I will give you a Black Hills tour with our tour company.
