Stay in a mini holiday resort, all to yourself, at this lavish home on the Athenian Riviera. Three separate villas make up the accommodation, all sharing plush outdoor space for the group to socialise in style. Pad barefoot around the manicured Mediterranean gardens, blooming with flowers, olive trees and fragrant shrubs. Lavender surrounds the pristine swimming pool and, from here, you can catch a glimpse of the Evian Gulf, flanked by mountains through the ancient trees. Dining is a delight beneath the terracotta-roofed gazebo and a fully-stocked bar can provide the sundowners. True to any luxurious resort, there are staff on-hand to arrange your every whim – a boat trip around the Riviera, at-home massages or perhaps a private chef.

Each of the three villas is a modern haven inside, with plush sofas adorning each living room and glass doors letting the sunlight stream in. The palette is a neutral mix of stone, wood and sea-blue with seashell curtains, maritime paintings and beachy ceramics a nod to your waterside location.

You’ve got direct access to the sea from the villa, so there’s no need to put your shoes on to reach the crystal shallows on the shore. And if you fancy a day trip to Athens, it’s less than an hour by car.

If you’re on the lookout for chic design, epic sea views and a beach on your doorstep, this is it. Perched on Evia’s seafront, this eye-popping seven-bedroom villa delivers on style. An infinity pool of dreams glimmers ahead of the stunning, architect-built home. Sink into an outdoor sofa with a glass of wine and watch the sea sparkle. Bliss. Or potter down to the peaceful beach where loungers are waiting. 

Inside, expect some ultra-cool styling. Bold prints on the wall and wood floors keep things homely and welcoming. Bedrooms are roomy and come with en-suites and ocean views. Whip up a feast in one of two kitchens, or fire up the barbecue.

Spend days swimming in the sea or lounging poolside. If you can drag yourself away, Anthidona is your nearest village, 2km away. Or head a little further to Eretria (25kn) for a dose of history.

On days when adventure is all you can think about, venture out to the Capital City of Athens, where you can enjoy endless shopping, dining and tourist opportunities.

Sea Salt Cove

Single-Level Home

Found on the Athenian Riviera, a stone's throw from Vouliagmeni Beach, this compact apartment is perfect for a small family of beach lovers. But though the sandy shores a ten-minute walk away is a major draw, there's plenty else to experience around here. The Vouliagmeni Lake, with its thermal springs, can be found in minutes, and you can walk to the restaurant-line square of Vouliagmeni in under ten. The home is spacious, bright and well-kept, with a little balcony for alfresco meals and peaceful reading.

Located a few metres from the sea, this villa is like something from a dream. If you are lucky enough to arrive in the evening, you will be met with glowing amber lights, beautifully illuminating the warm stone walls. Modern yet homely, this house oozes class and warmth from every nook. After a restful night's sleep, indulge in sunrise, as you sip a hot beverage on your undercover outdoor rattan sofa. Watching the water glistening in the distance is quite the treat. Spend your days swimming in the private pool or sinking your toes into the warm sand at the beach accessible from your back garden. Luxury and convenience are available in equal measure in this beautiful home. 

If you fancy sampling the local cuisine, take an evening stroll to dinner. For something a little more relaxed, fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco in your pretty outdoor garden, surrounded by loved ones. When you are ready for a little ‘me’ time, enjoy sundowners on the private balcony for a really memorable treat. If you do like to be beside the ‘Greek’ seaside, this home is a wonderful hub. Beauty, character and class make this a home-away-from-home and ensures that whether you stay close to home, or take a trip to Athens, you will have memories to cherish.

Enjoy a serene stay in peaceful Voula at this modern apartment, located just 1km from the coast. This home’s crown jewel is its beautiful wrap-around balcony, which offers an amazing sea view over the Saronic Gulf, and where you’ll also find a hot tub where you can sit, soak and take in the gorgeous vista around you. This home features muted and minimalistic interiors which give it a calm and relaxed feel, with large windows to bring the stunning sea view inside.

Start each day with a dip in the balcony hot tub while you sip on a freshly squeezed OJ and watch the sun come up over the beautiful ocean in front of you. Come inside and cook up some delicious Greek scrambled eggs and dine all together at your stylish dining set, while you discuss how to spend your day. There’s a bus stop nearby where you can easily get to the city centre, and find chic shops, gourmet restaurants and bustling bars. Return to your lovely home and sip on some sundowners on your balcony as you watch the sunset, or get cosy around the fireplace with a glass of wine and talk into the night about the best moments from your trip.

Ocean Viewpoint

This amazing Greek villa is located on the North-East coast of the Island of Kea. The stone house looks out over the beautiful turquoise ocean with a view of the island of Euboea and the coast of Attica. 

The perfect home for relaxing and recovering, why not take so time to lounge in the Greek sunshine and enjoy the warmth of its rays on your skin. Then, slip into the cooling waters of the freshwater swimming pool, and enjoy the stunning views while you float leisurely in the pool. 

Just a six-minute drive to Otzias, you can enjoy the sandy beaches and soothing sound of waves lapping at the shore, or dine in one of the local Tavernas. The village of Vourkari – just an eight-minute drive away – provides an opportunity for not only beach days but also scuba diving experiences. 

Coressia, the island’s port, is just a twelve-minute drive away, while the capital Ioulis is a twenty-five-minute drive away. In Ioulis you will be able to visit the archaeological museum and even see the Lion of Kea – an impressive early Greek stone monument that dates back to the Archaic period. 

What’s more, there is a regular ferry connection between Athens and Kea which takes about an hour, taking you to the Lavrion port. From here, you can drive about fifty-six minutes to Greece’s capital and explore everything Athens has to offer. 

After all your exploring, return home to the villa in the evening and cook some delicious souvlaki on the barbecue before dining alfresco as you enjoy the sun setting over the vista.

If you’re on the lookout for a super-house for multiple families, in a spectacular island setting, this is it. Standing high on a hill on stunning Aegina Island, the home is perfectly placed. The 180-degree ocean views are epic from here. But the buzzy city centre is pleasingly close enough just 4km away. 

The villa is set over four levels, with plenty of space for a gang of eighteen. The vibe is relaxed, with lots of colour and homely touches. Families will especially love it here. Table tennis, giant chess, a playground and basketball facilities mean the kids are well catered for. Meanwhile, the grown-ups can recline with a book by the oh-so-chic infinity pool. Heaven. 

If you can drag yourself away, it’s worth exploring this beautiful island. Your nearest beach is Marathonas – its shallow water makes it a great spot for little ones to swim. Or don your best hiking shoes and explore the nature-rich mountains where there are ancient chapels to discover. 

Then head home, fire up the built-in barbecue and feast with your loved ones as the sun sets over the ocean. 

Far And Wide

For a characterful, scenic stay on a staggeringly beautiful Greek island, choose this blue-and-white villa with mesmerising sea views. Flourishing olive and palm trees huddle around the two-bedroom home and its pool, providing that all-important privacy and seclusion you've been seeking.

When you're not sunbathing poolside or dining on the terrace, enjoy the mood-lifting aesthetic that's carried through the villa. It begins with the punchy blue shutters and continues with the technicolour textiles in the open living space. We're particularly fond of the Persian-style rugs scattered across the rooms, adding a homely and bohemian flair.

The picturesque port of Loutraki is just a fifteen-minute walk away. Watch fishing boats come and go as you sip coffee at a waterfront taverna. If you're up for a drive, Skopelos town is forty minutes away – pass through luscious landscapes on your way, peppered with red-roofed buildings and traditional churches. When you arrive, meander through colourful narrow streets lined with craft shops and tavernas, overlooking the azure-hued Aegean sea.

A Song to Sing

Looking out over the Corinthian Gulf, sitting on the balcony at this stylish villa is like having an amphitheatre seat overlooking one of mother nature’s greatest shows. Especially at sunset. There’s a terrace for outdoor dining as misty mountains loom across the ocean, and a bench and chairs for cocktails on the lawn. 

Inside, it’s crisp white walls with sheer curtains that billow in the sea breeze. Driftwood accents throughout keep that beachy feel, but there’s something modern and sleek about the big, bright kitchen. Bedrooms are soothing spots to unwind, but the master bedroom cinches it with its private balcony overlooking the sparkling sea beyond.

In terms of location, you’re a ten-minute walk from the beach where crystalline shallows lap at a sandy shore. And, while there’s a shop and café a short walk away in Melissi village, the seaside resort town of Xylokastro with a selection of bars, restaurants and supermarkets is a ten-minute drive. 

The Pull of the Moon

Villa Perimeno

Luxury Toiletries

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.

Athenian Riviera

Located on the north side of Skiathos, this charming villa in the heart of a quiet olive grove is a relaxing place to call home. Just below is Paralia Megas Gialos, a hidden gem of a beach that's well-worth the rocky climb down. Five minutes away by car is Skiathos Town, an enchanting village where cosmopolitan eateries, trendy boutiques, lively clubs and chic cafes promise plenty of action. From ancient monasteries to glorious beaches, there's no doubt that this is an excellent place to experience all the island has to offer.

When you're not out exploring, chances are you'll be lounging by the private infinity pool and drinking in the views of the Aegean on the terrace. Inside, Grecian character – think stone exterior, white-washed walls, wooden ceilings – meets 21st-century comforts like a jacuzzi tub and fully-equipped kitchen to create a comfortable and captivating space. Even better, your hosts go above and beyond to make your stay extraordinary. Not only will they pick you up at the airport, but they'll greet you with welcome drinks on arrival, help organise tours of the nearby islands and monasteries and assist with planning activities like bike riding, hiking, and much more.

Mystic Breeze

Streaming Services

This sleek apartment is within walking distance of the Athens coast, with great sea views. While the minimalist design might not be for everyone, the location is ideal for those who don't want to be in the centre of the city. The outdoor seating is perfect for enjoying a glass of wine at sunset and offers unobstructed views of the Aegean sea. You'll want a car for heading into central Athens, but it's an easy walk to restaurants, cafes, and the sandy Yabanaki beach.

Accessible Parking

Free Parking

Part of a complex of suites in Skiathos, you’ll have everything you need here for a romantic retreat or relaxing break with a friend. Each villa is completely independent with its own entrance, so there’s no need to worry about running into other guests here. Featuring a private wooden deck, you’ll have your own pool, sun loungers and alfresco dining area, all facing the beautiful Aegean Sea. The island is known for its sandy beaches, and you’ll find a great one just 600 metres away, but if you’re a bit of a beach hopper you can catch a boat from the port to explore 68 others.

Located in Kea, this villa offers a slower pace of life than some of Greece’s more famous islands. With plenty of quiet beaches to choose from, you’ll be able to explore sandy shores each day, but if you’d rather relax at home there are a number of outdoor spots from which to soak up incredible ocean views (our favourite being the private pool). Another highlight is the small guest house with a double and a single bed, which is perfect for a small family looking for a little extra privacy. 

A Spot of Serenity 

Games Console

Art Deco aficionados will adore this home on the Athenian riviera. Designed by a French architect in the 1930s, the special house has been modernised over the years but is still rich in original features. From the grand oak staircase to the terrazzo tiles in the hallway, it's a visual feast for nostalgic travellers.

And there's more to see in the gardens – that's right, there are two gardens. On the east side, you'll find a sun lounger-fringed swimming pool as well as a peaceful veranda. The west garden is home to a flourishing orange tree, which provides shade for the six-person dining table. Grill up a storm on the barbecue and spend all evening outdoors.

History buffs can't leave this area without visiting the Temple of Apollo at Corinth, fifteen minutes away by car. The limestone structure is perched on a rocky hill with views over the ancient city. But even closer to home, there are plenty of beaches, shops and tavernas to meet all of your holiday needs – you'll likely hear the Loutraki Waterfalls whispering as you stroll around the village.

The Greek Gatsby

Home Cinema Setup

Underfloor Heating

Sparkling sea views, oodles of balconies and a dazzling pool for swims in the sun – what more could you want for a holiday in Greece? Bright, serene and stylish, this modern villa has four floors of contemporary conveniences, from the compact gym and TV lounge downstairs to the light-filled living space on the second floor. There's even an in-house elevator, so you won't need to worry about dragging your baggage up and down all the steps. 

We love a lot about this villa – underfloor heating, mood lighting, rainfall showers – but our favourite has to be the lavish main suite. Set on the entirety of the top floor, not only does it have a jacuzzi tub in the en-suite bathroom, but a private balcony, where you can savour your morning coffee and admire the ebb and flow of the ocean. In the afternoons, sip wine in the sunshine and cool off with a dip in the pool. When you're feeling peckish, rustle up something delicious in the high-spec kitchen and dig in on the grassy courtyard, then make your way out to the many balconies and watch as the sun dips below the horizon.

When you fancy venturing out, it's just a five-minute drive to Althea Beach and thirty minutes to Athens, so you'll have a choice between sand and surf or city sightseeing – we think that's the best of both worlds.

Myths of Lore

Surrounded by olive trees with uninterrupted views of the Aegean Sea, this low-slung villa is a soothing sanctuary. Inside, it’s rustic and laidback with lofty timber ceilings, exposed stone walls and a neutral colour scheme. Throw open the glass doors to let a gentle salt-tinged breeze float through the home as you put together a traditional breakfast in the uncluttered kitchen. 

Spend afternoons flitting between the pool and a lounger before slinking off for a quick cat nap in supremely comfortable bedrooms. If exploring is on the agenda, take the trip to Megas Gialos Beach and pick your way across the pebbles to the inviting crystal clear water. Later on, head into Skiathos for dinner in the charming old town and a drink by the peaceful harbour.

Surrounded by fragrant pine trees and aromatic gardens, this homespun villa is instantly calming. Inside, natural materials and a collection of relaxed furnishings come together to create a sense of grounding. Plus, there’s everything you need to ensure a comfortable stay – a compact kitchen for whipping up Greek-inspired lunches and two cosy, fuss-free bedrooms that tempt extra-long lie-ins.

The living area opens onto a covered patio where you’ll spend most mornings tucking into breakfast at the dining table and sipping a coffee on the bench. When the temperature starts to rise, make a beeline for the private pool and float about in the cool water.

Spend afternoons snorkelling in the shallows of Limnonari Beach, a ten-minute drive away, or head into Skopelos town for its picturesque horseshoe harbour, family-run tavernas and unspoilt coastline. 

Fragrant Pine

This sleek and stylish villa awaits you with gorgeous views overlooking the surrounding area from the balcony. Natural daylight pours in through the large windows, doubling up as doors that grant you direct access to the outdoor space. Put your feet up on the sofa as you watch a movie together on the TV, or unwind with a bottle of red while you read a brand new book. You don't have to worry about missing out on your exercise routine while you're staying here, with a handy at-home gym you can keep your beloved workout routine. 

Cook up a delicious homemade meal inspired by the Grecian cuisine you'll be sampling during your time here. Tuck into the hearty plate of food at the wooden dining table – washed down with a glass of bubbly and paired with a scenic view by the window. Two of the bedrooms give you access to the outdoors, with one leading to the balcony and the other to the refreshing pool. The large windows in these bedrooms allow ample daylight to stream in, as well as provide an absolutely beautiful view of the sunset. Relax by the pool as you bathe in the amber glow of the evening or take a dip as you admire the encompassing landscape.

Head out to visit Althea Beach where you can spend your days by the sea, listening to the ocean waves as you relax under the sun with a refreshing drink. Take a drive along the coastline where you'll find Beach Duni Island – a fantastic spot to take those much-loved holiday snaps. 

Blue Paradise

Found next to Brooke Square in Skyros Town, this villa was built way back in 1892 and it still overflows with charm more than a century on. Much of this is down to the stunning view of the Aegean Sea that comes with the elevated position, which can be enjoyed in the garden, balcony or even out through the large windows that also bathe the space in natural light.

Some typically Skyrian architectural features have been retained — including a large patch of exposed rock in the dining room — but it's fair to say that the interior has been modernised over the years. This means that you'll find whitewashed walls, sleek bathrooms and a rather smart kitchen complete with an island.

Just two minutes' walk from the home, you'll find a pair of Museums, one devoted to archaeology and the other to ethnology and folklore. Skyros's whitewashed streets are pleasant to wander about aimlessly, but Magazia Beach is only a ten-minute walk for when you want a dip in the sea.


Poetic Beauty

Record Player

Sauna

Bicycles

Breakfast Included

This is a stunning home with a big swimming pool, private tennis court, sauna and billiards room. It is located 300 metres from the beach, in a wonderful setting overlooking the Corinthian Gulf and the surrounding hills. The villa is the perfect base from which to explore the Peloponnese region.

The Lost City

Though the idea of being secluded on an island might not ordinarily conjure up a romantic image, this home on a Greek private island is quite the opposite. Located in the Cyclades, the estate stretches across 900 acres, enabling you and the rest of the group to rejuvenate in a picturesque and tranquil setting. 

Spend mornings meditating on the jetty before enjoying a cup of coffee with an alfresco breakfast. With plenty of outdoor seating options, there’s one perfect to every situation – stealing away for a romantic drink overlooking the water, reading with your feet in the sand of your private beach, or playing board games with a drink in hand. 

Inside you’ll glimpse elements of Cycladic architecture throughout the home, especially in the master bedroom, where the fireplace sits proudly. Though the crisp white colour palette and natural elements found around the house is lovely, the natural beauty outside is hard to compete with. If you wish to explore it in greater detail, you can utilise several cycling and walking routes or take to the waters by boat if you’d like to go further afield. For an even more unique experience, why not join a fisherman on his boat for the day? 

Engaged couples might also be won over by the private chapel and make the island their wedding destination. 

The Sunny Islander

Bathrobes

Watch the sky change colours at this beautifully appointed villa overlooking the Aegean Sea. It combines traditional Cycladic architecture – most notably the stone walls and whitewashed exterior – with sleek and modern touches throughout the home. We particularly like the stylish chill-out and lounge spaces that simply call out for entertaining friendly get-togethers and family reunions. 

Encouraging indoor-outdoor living, there's an incredible sense of openness throughout the communal areas of the home when the balcony and patio doors are thrown open, inviting the calm sea breeze to enter in. We love the glossy furnishings, grey and blue colour palette and nautical decorative details that create a sophisticated yet light and beachy feel to the villa.

While we adore the bright and airy interiors, we reckon you'll be spending most of your time lazing the hours away outside on the expansive terrace, complete with a summer kitchen, sun loungers and enough comfortable seating for the entire group. Spend hot afternoons swimming in the pool and enjoying alfresco meals under the shaded pergola. Days end with a cocktail in the comfort of a hanging egg chair, watching the sunset over this achingly picturesque landscape. 

After a great night's sleep in the quiet bedrooms and waking up to soothing sea views for as far as the eye can see, pack your seaside essentials and take the five-minute drive to Otzais Beach. Stretch out on the soft sand before finding a seafront taverna to whet your appetite. 

Just After Sunset

Nestled away on the outskirts of the peaceful village of Glossa on the equally tranquil island of Skopelos, this newly built villa is, perhaps unsurprisingly, a rather relaxing place to take a break.

The terrace benefits from a sublime view of green hillsides, the sparkling Aegean Sea and a seemingly endless sky beyond that. Guests can enjoy this panorama from the comfort of a lounger, seated around tables or while cooling off in the swimming pool.

The plethora of large windows and doors means that it's even possible to gaze at the scenery from indoors. This also has the added perk of bringing in plentiful amounts of Sporades sunshine into the interior, which goes all too well with the honey-coloured walls and shiny tiled flooring. Bursts of colour come from the bold blue furnishings, the waterfall-themed artwork and an eye-catching mirror in the twin bedroom.

While it's possible to spend most of your time at the villa and be perfectly content, there are cafes and restaurants in the centre of Glossa about fifteen minutes' walk away, while Loutraki Beach sits a similar amount of time in the opposite direction.



Tip of the Tongue

Indulge in the ethereal ambiance that envelops Villa Forest, where tranquility and serenity converge. Nestled on a cliffside overlooking the azure sea, this sanctuary offers respite from the outside world. The gentle sea breeze and the rhythmic symphony of crashing waves create a soothing atmosphere, beckoning visitors to unwind and find solace. The vibrant hues of the surrounding flora infuse the air with a lively energy, harmonizing with the serene surroundings. Spread across two levels, its design seamlessly integrates with the natural landscape, immersing guests in an enchanting coastal experience...

Ethereal Sanctuary

Wake up to the crisp scent of the sea air, the sight of the beautiful, blue water of the Aegean and the soothing sound of the waves kissing the shore. It's a sensory gift that you never tire of receiving.

Once you've felt the magic of your surroundings, walk down one of the most idyllic stairways in the world and reach the golden sands of the beach. Serene and secluded, it feels like your own personal paradise on this glorious island.

After a day of sunbathing and splashing in the water, the charming villa is decorated in gorgeous seating areas. Taste the delicious bites of souvlaki, bread and hummus whilst you soak in the breathtaking views. Once sun sets on the sea, grab a bottle of wine to share as the sky turns from deep blue into a warm, dusty red.

Away from the luxury of the villa, the charming towns that form Skopelos are just moments away. Discover the enchanting tavernas for pretty spots to watch the island's sleepy lifestyle unfold.


Ocean Stairway

Tennis Court

Part of a pretty resort on the edge of Skopelos Town, this home is a great pick for groups of friends or families. It's composed of the main apartment and two studios – one of which has wheelchair access – meaning that all your loved ones can enjoy their own space and make some lasting memories together. 

Each of the living spaces has its own kitchen area, so your guests can have some independence and create their own schedules. Step outside to relax on the terrace with a fresh coffee in the morning, or a final sundowner come evening as you admire the fabulous views across the bay. You'll also have access to a sparkling swimming pool where you can cool off on hot days, and a nearby shared tennis court – it's perfect for practicing your serve. 

Your host runs a shuttle bus into the port, where you can stroll through the charming streets and stop off at local tavernas for freshly caught seafood. They will also provide four bikes for you to use, should you fancy exploring the rugged hillsides and olive groves on two wheels. And, if you're craving a day on the sand, then head to beautiful Stafilos Beach – it's just 4km away and has crystal clear waters to swim in.
