About this property

*LICENSED BY THE GREEK MINISTRY OF TOURISM*

Quietly nestled above the rippling wavelets of the Aegean Sea, Aeolos Villa offers a unique retreat in one of the most splendid and environmentally protected locations of Attica, a breath away from the historic site of Marathon.
Indulge yourself in our picturesque home directly above the Aegean Sea. Enjoy the cool waters of our nearby sandy beach. Drink your chilled daiquiri and relax in our veranda with bird-eye, Santorini-like views.

Prices Including:

- Free WiFi (bring your laptop!), satellite TV (50 inches screen!) and video, free loan of mobile phone upon arrival.

- Maid services once a week,

- And a dozen, little surprises that will make you feel like royalty.

- LOCATION

The house is located inside Schinias National Park, northeast of Athens, only a 3 minutes drive to a sandy beach with pine forest, 2 minutes to rocky beach, 3 minutes to taverns, 15 minutes from historic site of Marathon, 60 minutes from International Airport, 55 Kilometers from downtown Athens.

-WHAT TO DO DURING OUR STAY? PLACES TO SEE

That is totally up to you. You could enjoy the sea and spend the day in oriental laziness, or you could try some of the various water activities (including water surfing and jet ski), offered in the crystal clear waters of Schinias Beach.

There is always the possibility of visiting nearby Marathon historic site, the archaeological site of Ramnous and the Marathon Museum, having Stavros as your personal guide.

You can spend the entire day in Athens, visiting Acropolis, the Archaeological Museum, picturesque Plaka with its numerous taverns, Lycabetus Hill for an overwhelming view of the city and so many more.

For short tours around Athens, there is the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, with its unique sunset, the Kutuki cave at mount Hymetus, the Temple of Artemis at Vravrona.

- WHERE DO WE DINE?

There are many fish and grilled meat taverns at 3 minutes drive from our house, where you can enjoy excellent food at the edge of the sea, feeling the soft sand under your bare feet. At Nea Makri you can dine in a vast variety of restaurants. You also have the possibility of ordering pizza delivered at home, or you can ask Rosa to cook for you her famous, irresistible moussaka!

-NIGHT LIFE

Cinemas, beach bars and clubs at a 3-20 minute drive, or a quiet stroll along the little harbor of Nea Makri. That is, provided there is no full moon, because, in that case, you will most certainly prefer to enjoy your drink in our candle lit veranda.

- WHAT TO PACK

Only your bathing suits, clothing, personal items, sunscreen lotion and your DSLR! We’ll provide linen and towels, road maps, isothermal bags to keep your fruit cold, snorkeling gear for your dives. If you are trekking oriented, please bring a pair of sturdy shoes and a lot of anticipation!

Perfect

Our family stayed at the villa for Thanksgiving vacation for 10 days. The villa and views are amazing. Rosa and Stavros were the most gracious and helpful hosts we have ever had through our 20+ years of vrbo rentals. Hope we can go back there again.

Un havre de paix!

Belle villa chaleureuse, avec la mer à perte de vue, depuis la chambre et la pièce principale. Un havre de paix (absolument aucun bruit) et d'emerveillement! Les propriétaires ont été supers, très sympathiques, disponibles et toujours de bon conseils. Depuis ce point de chute, nous avons visité Athènes et l'Acropole, Delphes, les Météores, Epidaure et avons passé quelques jours sur l'île d'Andros (port à proximité de la villa). Nous avons passé 15 jours paradisiaques! Merci Rosa et Stavros!

Haus mit Charme

Das Haus entspricht in allen Teilen der Beschreibung und ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Im Wohnzimmer findet man eine Vielzahl von interessanten Büchern. Die Küche ist komplett ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht. Es ist mehr als reichlich Geschirr, Besteck, Küchenutensilien und auch Gewürze sind vorhanden. Die Räume sind groß und hell. Beim Aufwachen schaut man direkt auf das Meer und kann den Sonnenaufgang bestaunen. Schnelles Internet mit 20MBit und einen großen Fernseher mit Empfang aller nur denkbaren Programme. Die Gastgeberin ist ausgesprochen sympathisch und spricht perfekt Englisch. Zur Begrüßung bekamen wir reichlich frisches Obst und Getränke. Die Übergabe war sehr ausführlich und informativ. Ebenso bekamen wir viele Tipps hinsichtlich der Sehenswürdigkeiten und Restaurants in der Nähe. Im Vorwege erhielten wir eine sehr detaillierte Wegbeschreibung, die sehr hilfreich war. Das Haus liegt in einer sehr ruhigen Gegend und man hat einen wunderbaren Blick auf das Meer und Euboia/Evia. Die Lage ist perfekt, um die Sehenswürdigkeiten von Marathon sowie archäologische Stätten wie z. B. Ramnous und Amphiareion zu erkunden. Empfehlenswert ist auch der Besuch des Olympic Rowing and Canoeing Centre. Vielfältige Einkaufsmöglichkeiten findet man in Nea Makri. Mehrere Supermärkte, Schuh- und Bekleidungsgeschäfte. Wir möchten uns an dieser Stelle noch einmal herzlich bei Rosa für den großartigen Urlaub in ihrem Haus bedanken. Wir können die Villa uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Beautiful villa with magnificent view and great hosts

We extremely enjoyed our stay at Rosas and Stavros villa! The house is placed in the quiet area on the hillside with magnificent view at the sea and the opposite coast which make it a perfect location for family vacation. The house is fully equipped with very spacious kitchen and living area. It has also a large terrace with fantastic view and big table for meals. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Rosa and Stavros were always there to answer all our questions and give us helpful information regarding the region, places worth visiting, good restaurant etc. There is a beautiful sandy beach with turquoise water, convenience store and restaurants very close by. I recommend this place to anybody who is seeking calm, relaxing place that feels like home! Thank you Rosa and Stavros for being such wonderful hosts! Ela and the Family

Beautiful villa with spectacular views!

We enjoyed every moment of our stay at Aeolos Villa - it exceeded our expectations! The villa is very spacious and nicely furnished. The large terrace overlooking the sea offers truly amazing views and plenty of space to enjoy with family and friends. The property is very clean and well maintained. The owners are extremely welcoming and always available for your requests and for excellent suggestions regarding activities and restaurants in the area as well as attractions all over Greece! The hosts have a wealth of information for you regarding the history of this wondrous culture as well as many humorous stories :)) We cannot wait to return to Aeolos Villa and to visit our wonderful hosts again!

About the host

Hosted by Rosa

We are a young couple in our 50s and still blooming. Rosa works as a translator and is fluent both in English and Italian. Stavros, after a B.Sc, an M.B.A. and a M.Sc. In Marketing at the Universities of Lancaster and UMIST in England, and 15 years of very active service as an export sales manager for some of the biggest wine companies in Greece, now spends more time with his family, owning a taxi service and providing his services as a tour and a trekking guide. We have a daughter, Danae, a university student, who enjoys swimming in the gently sloping, shallow beach of Schinias, from mid April, up to (occasionally) beginning of December!
