Great apartment, great location. Dimitris was extremely helpful and responded to all our questions very efficiently - also had done great recommendations for our stay in Athens.Unless you are traveling outside of Athens, I wouldn’t recommend hiring a car as taxis/uber are plentiful, cheap and run at all hours and some of the roads are narrow and steep !

Family European Trip

Amazing is the best way to describe it. From the initial booking until departure, Dimitri and Fotini were extremely responsive. They provided excellent guidance to things to see, when to go, places to eat. Between that and the wonderful home, it made an amazing ending to a great two week family trip.

Over all the apartment was great. Loved the roof top pool, area felt safe, was quiet. We felt very comfortable leaving the windows and doors open for fresh air even when we weren’t home. Host was very helpful in helping us arrange transportation to and from the airport as well as giving us tips on things to do in the local area

Cant beat the private pool

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Demetris was extremely hospitable and assisted us with transfers and restaurant recommendations The penthouse was fully equipped and located in a very nice neighborhood. The private pool was fabulous. Great place for a small group or family. You won’t be disappointed.

We had a wonderful stay! We were arriving from a cruise ship and the host helped arrange transportation to the Penthouse. He and his assistant met us there to go through the property and answer any questions. He reviewed a map of the city and recommended places to visit, and helped us to set up a driver for a trip to the beach in Sounion. Very nice property, and wonderful host!

Fantastic Pool Oasis in Lycabettus

Dmitris was a fantastic host. The property was in a great location, and the roof top pool was stunning. The big surprise was Dmitris art and book collection throughout the unit. Clean, safe, and family friendly.

The property is in a great and safe location near the U.S. embassy. The apartment occupies the third floor and rooftop of the building, including a beautiful rooftop pool and large shaded patio area surrounded by a rooftop garden. I highly recommend!

Great penthouse

we were a family of 5 and the apartment was very cosy and spacious for all of us. A real home away home. Thanks to our lovely host we had a filled fridge on arrival, so didnt have to start with grocery shopping. Location is perfect for visiting Athens, and taxi fare is way cheaper that in other cities. Thank you Dimitris for making our stay perfect. I will recoomend your place to everyone visiting Athens 😃

Athens Adventure

Dimitris was a wonderful host but property was somewhat dated and hard to navigate with party of 4 older individuals. 2 bedrooms downstairs and one upstairs with stone staircase with no handrail.Centrally located and safe neighborhood. Enjoyed it overall.

Great location, owner involved in every aspect

This is an ideally located and beautiful property in a good area of Athens. It's situated next to a wonderful park with an overlook at the top. The owner was very detail-oriented in preparing for our stay and arranging transport to & from the airport. He was there when we arrived to show us everything and returned almost daily to replenish items of convenience and make sure that everything was okay. This property owner is involved in every aspect of your stay in Athens to make sure everything is as anticipated for both parties.

Athen rooftop sanctuary

We love the apartment, great place to stay. The rooftop has a great view, sitting area and pool. It was relaxing and enjoyable. Right across from a hill with a church and restaurant at the top where you can take a short hike to have even more beautiful views of the city. Dimitris was great and extremely helpful in making arrangements to and from everywhere we needed to go. He was very communicative before and during our stay. Many thanks Dimitris!

The pool is a nice feature - particularly in the heat of July25. The bedrooms and showers are small. The beds were extremely hard, which made sleeping difficult. The property was not clean to a standard we would expect. We did not appreciate are unannounced visit by the owner.

The one bathroom has big Jaccuzi in it, so it is inevitably large. Our visit was declared during the initial personal reception that we need to visit every two days o take care of the pool and the plants. It is even written in the rules of the house. These two facts prove the strange and untruthful review of the guest regarding all his statements. We feel really sorry for this.

Spectacular place and a wonderful host!

The penthouse apartment is exactly as advertised. It is a great place. It is very spacious - both the inside quarters as well as the outside areas with the beautiful pool and landscaped decks. Dimitris is a charming host and extremely attentive and helpful. We truly appreciated him welcoming to the apartment and to the city. He gave us great suggestions of what to do and help arrange some transportation. We found the location in the Lycabettus Hill area to be perfect. It's a lovely and peaceful area. We could not have been more pleased with our stay and highly recommend it.

Beautiful views from Lycabettus Hill

Nice penthouse on the top two floors of an apartment building on the east side of Lycabettus Hill (a big park across the street). It was away from the busy tourist areas but within 1/2 mile from many nice neighborhood restaurants to the west. It had easy access to the downtown sites and we were also within a 1/2 of the City-Sightseeing bus stop 8 (by the National Gallery). The penthouse was beautiful and very well furnished. The layout was nice and huge balconies everywhere! Maybe 5! The host was very welcoming and was very quick to help us with WiFi. Great location to reach popular tourist areas, only 5 euro to most places by taxi/Uber. I would definitely recommend!
