"We have just got back from a two week stay at Villa Athina and cannot recommend it enough. We did extensive research before booking and definitely couldn't have found a more superb place. Right from the start, the team were friendly, professional and extremely helpful. The villa is exactly as shown in the photographs and has the most amazing views of the hills and sea. It was spotless and the villa manager and her team popped in for regular cleaning and changing of bed linen and towels."

This was already our second stay at Villa Athina, and once again we had an unforgettable experience. The location and the views are absolutely breathtaking, and the house and pool are truly beautiful—without a doubt one of the most stunning places one could imagine staying.

Everything is exceptionally well maintained, and even after a full week, there isn’t enough time to enjoy all the wonderful seating areas and outdoor spaces the property has to offer.

Communication with the hosts was excellent and effortless throughout our stay. They were always available, provided plenty of helpful recommendations for restaurants, activities, and excursions, and made us feel very welcome.

We honestly didn’t want to leave and are already hoping to return again soon. We can highly recommend Villa Athina to anyone looking for a truly special and memorable stay.
