Take a dreamy trip to the Athenian Riviera with a stay at this unique home in Glyfada. With plenty of space, lots of traditional touches, and an excellent location just a stone's throw away from the sea, you'll fall in love with this gorgeous villa in no time at all. Originally built in the 1950s, this home maintains much of its original charm. With mosaics, large windows, and a wooden staircase, there's an Old Hollywood atmosphere here, inviting you to pick out your best sunglasses and relax in style. You'll love sipping your morning coffee on the balcony overlooking the luscious gardens, before swimming a few lengths in the glass pool. Evenings are best spent cooking up a delicious Greek feast to serve in the chic dining room – don't forget some local wine too. If you'd rather someone else take on the cooking, then there are plenty of lavish seafood restaurants in the surrounding area – Glyfada is well-known for its affluent residents. Days at the beach couldn't be easier, with the golden shoreline just a 300m wander away – paddle in the crystal clear water, or kick back on the sand with a great novel. And, if you want... to head into Athens to do some sightseeing, then you can drive into the ancient city in around half an hour.

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.
