About this property
Award-winning, Spacious, Private Pool & Gardens, nr Beaches, 5*'s, real Greece
See our video tour in the photo gallery.
Style and character are everything here, and our villa has this in spades. It's a unique home in a 'real Greece' location that is perfect for families and ‘wow’'s everyone who stays with us.
Once you book, we don't stop there. You'll be in good hands to arrange fridge stocking, daily external housekeeping, booking sailing, wine tasting, and more to make your stay truly memorable.
We are proud to have had five stars from everybody who has stayed with us.
We're offering super discounts for some dates in July and late August.
Our location (east coast, mainland Greece, north of Athens) is untouched by mass tourism.
With rugged coastlines, secluded beaches, and olive groves, we exude tranquillity, serenity, and a Real Greece feel.
We are on the edge of a busy village with tavernas, a chemist, a supermarket, a bakery, and a butcher, a quick walk from us.
Coastal waters are perfect for swimming, and you can go sailing and diving.
Nearby is a kite sailing bay (holds international competitions)
Charming local villages where time stands still.
You're even just 10 minutes from a well-known, busy Greek seaside resort - so you can enjoy a nightlife of bars, cafes, tavernas, sweet shops and more.
Our villa is a relaxed and quiet space where you can unwind and connect with our peaceful atmosphere. The villa is about 5002M of living space on grounds of about 1 acre. Ample space for large groups to still have some relaxation and privacy.
You can explore hidden coves, indulge in lovely local cuisine, or simply bask by the pool in the sun; we're an unforgettable escape for those seeking an authentic Greek experience.
We're a stunning home. We've even won an award for it.
It is set in private gardens, trees, living spaces, and a pool area.
And, completely child-friendly and safe.
A private pool in stunning ancient surroundings.
Chill amongst many trees in our private gardens.
Take the day trip ferry to visit Skiathos. Sail on your private, skippered yacht for the day, exploring empty beaches and tiny islands.
Day trip to ancient sites - Delphi, Meteora, or the enchanting mountain villages of Pelion.
Sip evening cocktails or lunch at the beachside at our nearby resort, just minutes away. Play tennis, kitesurf, or explore empty beaches for yourself.
The villa has an award (The Times) as one of mainland Greece's top 20 coastal villas.
Built of stone, with stone floors, it stays cool inside and opens onto large terraces, gardens, or the private pool area.
Click on our video tour, which is available in the photo section, to see more!
Modern fittings, luxurious touches, private and secure.
We're a straightforward door-to-door motorway drive from Athens (2 hrs), Thessaloniki (3 hrs), or Volos airports (30 minutes).
5 bedrooms for 9 (+ a 6th, not private, spare room ideal for two extra kids to make 11)
3 rain shower bathrooms
A farmhouse-style kitchen with everything.
An inside dining room with an open fire (but you probably won't use it!)
A huge and spacious living room with several separate seating areas
Large terraces face the gardens
A private and large poolside with your BBQ area.
Our private grounds are fenced and gated, so it is very safe for kids to roam freely.
We also provide a complimentary external daily clean service (and optional inside maid service), so you can relax!
We're in olive grove country. But whilst your living is relaxed, quiet and private, the area around us has tons of activities, with plenty of choices of both traditional tavernas and modern restaurants, several bars and clubs, tennis, beach volley and beach tennis, windsurfing, play areas for kids, live music at beachside concerts or the village tavernas, an award-winning vineyard next door for wine tasting/tours, sailing on the Aegean in your private yacht, and more. Plus, day trips to the stunning sights of central Greece.
The pool setting is breathtaking - swim and sun among protected stones and walling dating back over 1600 years.
An international vineyard is a 5-minute drive away - and we can arrange visits, tasting tours and dinners there.
Just minutes drive away is Rahes, a busy and famous Greek beach resort with many beachside cafes, bars, tavernas, kids' entertainment and more - a wonderful, typically Greek, friendly, buzzing nightlife experience where children can walk and roam safely as they meet and play with new friends late into the night.
We can arrange a day sailing on a private yacht, or you can catch small ferry boats for 20-minute trips to nearby islands. Real Greece is a very simple motorway drive from all airports in a stunning setting, and we're by the clear waters of the Aegean Sea.

About the host
Hosted by Michael Cooper
I'm a writer, pilot and artist spending my time between Greece and the UK.
Why they chose this property
I fell in love with this unfinished house and, wanting something very spacious with lots of light and colour, original in design, but with nearby nightlife and sea I completed its modernisation over several years. From the front terraces I'm surrounded by garden trees - lemon, pine, fig plum and cherry. From the rear pool area I can lounge in privacy, among ancient history. I rent my villa out because I enjoy meeting guests from around the world, and over the last 12 years have made some special new friends.
What makes this property unique
There is no other property like this in Greece. It is, genuinely , unique in design and in atmosphere - luxury set among ancient stones and walls, some dating back 1,600 years - in the exterior grounds. It's a perfect location for travelers wanting to experience real Greece, in peace and quiet. We're very private and secure (especially great for kids who can roam the gardens freely), with a sense of space (over 500m2 of living space inside the house), but with contemporary Greece's beachside bar's, cafe's and seaside taverna's all just 5 minutes drive away in the nearby popular resort. It's the best of old and new Greece, on your doorstep. Stunning archeology, olive groves and coast surround you, and one of Greece's best international vineyards is on our doorstep for complimentary visiting and tasting. The UNESCO Heritage site of Meteora, and Delphi and Thermoplyae, together with the beautiful mountain region of Pelion with its stunning villages and beaches, and even Thesslaoniki are fascinating day trips from the house. It's no wonder the UK Times named us one of the 20 best seaside villas in Greece.
