Athenian Riviera

Just steps away from the water's edge, with views across the Aegean Sea, you'll find this stunning villa. It's the perfect place to reset and relax in style – gather up your favourite people and get ready to make some fabulous memories in the Greek sunshine.

There's a distinct sense of calm throughout the home, thanks to the natural fabrics and abundance of natural light. Three of the four bedrooms offer direct access to the balcony, where you can sip your morning coffee and breathe in the fresh air. If you follow the steps at the bottom of the garden, you will arrive at your very own little pebble beach and take a refreshing dip in the sea on hot days. And, there's also an alfresco Jacuzzi, which is ideal for long, luxurious soaks under the stars each evening.

It would be easy to never leave this little slice of paradise – especially since your host can organise luxurious extras like butler service and private yoga sessions. However, Astir Beach, with its crystal clear waters, is just a four-minute walk away, as is Vouliagmeni Beach, complete with volleyball courts and a childrens' play area. And, if you fancy heading into Athens to see the sights, then you can drive to the historic city in just half an hour.
