Perched on the prestigious Nafplio Riviera, Villa Artia is an architectural 4-bedroom masterpiece designed for those seeking high-end luxury without compromising on authenticity. Perfectly nestled in the serene coastal village of Xiropigado, this exclusive estate offers the ultimate sanctuary –where the historic charm of cosmopolitan Nafplio is just a scenic 20-minute drive away, yet absolute tranquility awaits.
Welcome to a world where every detail is curated for the discerning traveler. Wake up to beautiful Argolic Gulf views from every single room, and step out onto your balconies or the expansive, main 50-sqm terrace to take in the breathtaking, panoramic vistas. In the morning, indulge in a complimentary artisan breakfast basket delivered straight to your private poolside terrace, the perfect spot to start your day in privacy.
Designed to celebrate the art of Mediterranean outdoor living, the estate boasts two distinct alfresco dining areas. Host unforgettable gatherings on the main panoramic terrace, or enjoy a memorable dinner in the front courtyard, where a second dining setup sits right in front of a traditional wood-fired oven. To elevate your stay into a true five-star gastronomic journey, a private chef is available upon request to craft bespoke dinners under the stars.
At Villa Artia, luxury is completely effortless. Leave your car keys behind; your only daily itinerary is a short stroll to the crystal-clear waters of the beach, charming seaside tavernas, and local shops.
The Residence & Sophisticated Indoors
Crafted to maximize natural light and capture breathtaking, unobstructed sea views from every corner, the villa’s indoor spaces exude understated luxury:
• Ground Floor: A luminous, open-plan living domain featuring two plush lounge areas, a formal dining space, and a fully equipped gourmet kitchen. This level hosts an elegant double bedroom and a full bathroom, ideal for guests seeking step-free accessibility.
• Upper Level: Dedicated to premium rest, the first floor features three beautifully appointed bedrooms. Two sanctuaries boast king-size beds, while the third offers two twin beds—all outfitted with independent climate control, ample wardrobe space, and private balconies overlooking the sea or mountains. Two additional luxury bathrooms serve this level.
Exclusive Outdoor Living
The estate’s outdoor architectural design prioritizes premium thermal comfort, visual harmony, and absolute privacy for your family:
• The Terraces: A grand 50 m² main terrace commands sweeping views of the sea, complemented by a secondary intimate balcony facing the majestic mountains.
• The Pool & Gardens: Immerse yourself in the pristine swimming pool, framed by a sun-drenched patio that preserves three ancient, sculptural olive trees. Next to the water, a curated botanical bed fills the air with the scents of wild mint, basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, sage, and rare Taygetus tea.
• Al Fresco Dining: A beautifully landscaped front yard features a traditional wood-burning oven and a premium barbecue setup, perfect for private chef dinners under the stars.
The Destination & Seamless Connectivity
Villa Artia offers the rare luxury of seclusion without isolation. Nestled in the heart of Xiropigado, Villa Artia perfectly balances central convenience with serenity. A 7-minute stroll brings you to the main, organized beach -a Blue Flag winner since 2018- famed for its deep, crystal waters, pebbles, and soft sand. While charming taverns, seafood restaurants, cafes, and markets are just a stone's throw away, the villa remains a peaceful sanctuary. Here, the only summer soundtrack is the cicadas. Xiropigado is a remarkably calm and restorative place to stay.
The estate is a stress-free, two-hour drive from Athens International Airport. By avoiding the hassle of ferry transits, it sets the stage for a seamless entry into Arcadia—a land of dramatic contrasts and rich gastronomy. Within just 45 minutes, the scenery shifts from lacy, unspoiled coastlines and lowland olive groves to alpine landscapes thick with fir, chestnut, and cherry trees, hidden rivers, and some of Greece’s most enchanting traditional stone villages. The local Arcadians are celebrated for their warm hospitality, preserving a refined, small-scale way of life.
A Gateway to Mythical Greece
Situated centrally in the Peloponnese -a region steeped in Homeric mythology, UNESCO World Heritage monuments, and imposing castles- Villa Artia serves as your private launchpad for iconic day trips:
• Nafplio (Short drive): The cosmopolitan first capital of modern Greece, famous for its Venetian neoclassicism and elite dining.
• Epidaurus & Mycenae (Short drive): The ancient, acoustically perfect theater of Epidaurus and the legendary "multi-gold" kingdom of the Atreides.
• Ancient Olympia & Mystras (Day trips): The sacred birthplace of the Olympic Games, and the breathtaking Byzantine castle-state of Mystras, which can be combined with a magical boat ride through the subterranean white stalactites of the Diros Caves.
