We love the panoramic vistas of the local area and the Aegean Sea from this home's balcony. Inside, the kitchen is compact but has everything you probably need to create some meze. We'd say the bedroom is a little on the small side, too. All in all, though, this is a decent base for your Greek adventure. Stavros Niarchos Park is nearby – you'll find a cultural centre and a variety of flora, including olive trees and Greek aromatic plants. There are plenty of cafes, restaurants and shops to enjoy, and the beach is also within walking distance. If you want to visit Athens, it's a ride away, so you'll need to use public transport or hire a car.

About Athens
It’s impossible to miss the Parthenon in Athens, rising up over the city and illuminated at night. For most, these preserved columned ruins are the epitome of the ancient world. In the narrow streets of the city, you’ll find Byzantine churches, adorned with ancient mosaics, tucked in between street food restaurants serving gyros wraps and bakeries serving spanakopita.
