With breathtaking views over the Acropolis and city skyline, this home is a real gem. Watch the sunset over the Acropolis with a glass of Greek wine on the private balcony, or head up to the shared roof terrace for the incredible 360-degree vistas of Athens – we could spend hours in either space. Housed in a recently built building, inside you'll find a stylish living space with cool greys and fresh whites. This place is ideal for friends, family or business professionals.

Located in the pretty, artistic neighbourhood of Mets, there are plenty of restaurants and bars on your doorstep. The Panathenaic Stadium, home to the first modern Olympic Games in the 19th-century and made of marble, is a ten-minute walk away or five minutes in the car. If you want to see the Acropolis up close, then it's a ten-minute ride.



Sunset Over the Acropolis	

There's something to please everyone at this contemporary flat nestled right in the heart of Athens. History buffs and sightseers can wander over to the Acropolis, National Garden and Philopappos Hill in just fifteen minutes and marvel at the ancient monuments. Foodies can wine and dine at the eclectic mix of cafes, restaurants, bars and taverns in nearby Koukaki, while fashionistas are just a thirteen-minute stroll from the flea market in Monastiraki. 

The location is unbeatable, there's no denying that. But the icing on the cake is the cool, calm interiors waiting for you back home. Soak up the last of the evening rays on your private patio, sharing a bottle of Greek wine and nibbling on olives as the sun goes down. Inside, cook up a storm in the sleek kitchen, then gather on the sofa for a Netflix movie night – the host's log-in is included with your stay. Finally, when your eyes are getting tired, snuggle up in the sumptuous bedroom and enjoy a restful sleep, waking up refreshed and ready for tomorrow's adventures.

Better Days

Just take a look at the Acropolis views from this apartment's balcony and you'll see why it caught our attention. There are also vistas from inside, and there's access to the balcony from one of the bedrooms – name a better way to wake up each morning. The kitchen is galley style, relatively compact and somewhat dated, but it has everything you need. And, of course, you'll be located in the heart of Athens in one of the most upmarket districts of the capital and just steps away from restaurants. You'll also find nearby boutiques, museums and a metro station easily accessible on foot.

Pearl of the Sky

You'll find this charming boutique villa in the lively Koukaki neighbourhood of Athens. Cafes and bars are all nearby, but it's the proximity to sights like the Acropolis that really makes it special. See all the best bits and return home to a minimalist and stylish apartment. Even though three guests will be sleeping in the living spaces, they’re strategically placed to give everyone space and privacy. If you need help planning your itinerary, your host will be more than happy to assist.

The Shadow of Athena

Technically two separate apartments, this home dominates the entire second and third floors of a historic building in Athens’ Plaka neighbourhood. Guests here can spread out between four suites, two living rooms (each with a double sofa bed) and two full kitchens. The crowning glory of these apartments has to be the private terrace which looks out to the Acropolis, rising above the city in ancient splendour. A hot tub can soak sore feet after a day exploring the myriad restaurants and bars in the narrow old streets of your Plaka neighbourhood. 

The Greek Light

Sitting at the foot of the Acropolis, the neighbourhood of Plaka is brimming with the cultural depth and warmth of Athens. 

Wander along the cobblestone streets and you’ll find this apartment located in a Neoclassical building dating back to the 1930s. And while the exterior sings with tradition, the interior provides all the comfort of a contemporary sanctuary. 

From the minimalist furnishings and open plan design to the snug bedrooms and little balcony, there’s everything you could need for a restorative stay in the city. Watch the sunrise with a coffee on the shared terrace, take a long soak in the bath and gather for delicious Greek meals around the table. Wherever you are in this home, it’s the kind of space that brings ease and comfort to city living. 

Days can be spent strolling the central streets, admiring the architecture as you wind your way towards the Acropolis (just seven minutes away). Soak up the atmosphere from a nearby taverna, browse tiny shops filled with handcrafted ceramics and savour the magic of live music as the sun sets across this special neighbourhood. 

Art & Muse

In a neighbourhood that oozes old-school Athens charm, this flat is close to everything this culture-rich city has to offer. You'll be just fifteen minutes on foot from the Acropolis, Philopappos Hill and the National Garden, so if sightseeing is on your to-do list, you couldn't ask for a finer spot to call home. Better still are the Greek tavernas, bakeries and bars that dot this section of the city. On those nights you don't fancy cooking, swing by one of those eateries and enjoy a night on the town – there'll never be a dull moment here.

When you're not out exploring your surroundings, come home to this trendy little flat and unwind in style. Plop down on the sofa after a hike up the Acropolis – with Netflix playing and the air conditioning blasting, you'll feel relaxed in no time. We can't help but swoon over the chic, contemporary design – we particularly like the more natural elements, such as bamboo fixtures, exposed wooden beams and the leafy green plants. But the real gem is the sunny balcony overlooking the street below. It's the picture of an Athens getaway – we can already imagine ourselves sipping wine, nibbling on olives and watching the sun go down.

Athenia, With Love 

City-break lovers, this one’s for you. You couldn’t ask for a more central location than this sixth-floor apartment right next to Syntagma Square, on one of Athens’ most affluent pedestrian streets. There’s a great city view from the balcony, and while the sofa bed two guests will be sleeping on might not be suitable for long stays, it’s a comfortable and roomy home for such a great setting. Most importantly, you’re within easy walking distance of all of Athens’ top attractions. 

Eclectic Athens

This modern apartment is the perfect base in Athens. It’s right in the centre of historic Athens, so you’re within easy reach of all the key attractions – the Parthenon is just 450 metres away and the Acropolis Museum is a five-minute walk. In addition to being wonderfully located, the apartment is bright and comfortable. You’ll have a balcony for sipping your morning coffee and a rooftop hot tub to unwind in – the views are incredible. 

Grecian Elegance

The buzzing atmosphere of central Athens is something everyone should experience one day, and this home is right in the thick of it. Situated a four-minute walk away from the street leading to Acropolis – one of Athens famed archeological treasures – and only a twelve-minute walk from the busy area of Monastiraki, where you'll find lively bars and cafés, a stay here will put you in an ideal location to explore the wonders of this historic city.

But when you're inside the apartment you wouldn't think you're in central Athens, with street noise being completely cut off from this third-floor home. So for the days when you want to relax in the lounge and enjoy the natural light flooding in from the oversized windows, you'll be pleased to know you'll have your own sanctuary in the heart of the city. But the real gem of this home is the private balcony, which feels like a slice of Middle Eastern paradise in Southern Europe. Whether you want to read a book and enjoy the Greek sunshine, or marvel at the lights of Acropolis and the Parthenon from your balcony at night, we guarantee you'll be spending a lot of time here.

Acropolis Lights

Just an eighteen-minute drive away from the centre of Athens, this spot in the heart of Pireas grants the best of both worlds – as you'll have the city at your fingertips and views of Marina Zeas from the balcony and the local beaches within walking distance. 

Waking up here each day couldn't be more blissful, as the from the balcony, you'll have a calming oasis from which to lap up spectacular views over the harbour. Gaze at the sailing boats and luxury yachts amidst the salty seaside atmosphere. Or not head down to Votsalakia beach (only a five-minute stroll away) to stroll along the lively promenade or have an alfresco meal in the sunshine. 

Inside the apartment, chic and stylish bohemian style designs create a truly relaxing space to chill after a day of discovering the sights of Athens. Turn on the Bluetooth speakers and let the sound of your favourite soundtrack soothe your soul as you sip a homemade espresso each morning. With neutral hues throughout, returning here after an action-packed day feels like melting into a warm hug – both calming and comforting. 


Marina Gaze

Vistas speak louder than words at this showstopping penthouse set in the heart of buzzy Athens. Offering up next-level views of the Acropolis rising majestically above the city, that vast private veranda has sundowners and sunset barbecues written all over it.

Step inside, and you can expect to do some serious drooling at this home's contemporary interiors, united by a sleek, monochrome palette. Boutique-style bedrooms feel as luxurious as the next, with two separate bathrooms to speed things along in the mornings. But it's that free-flowing and light-filled living space with expansive picture windows offering up unobstructed views of the Parthenon that's getting us hot under the collar. Seamlessly designed for socialising, there's a dining area calling out for glamourous dinner parties with a view. While that oh-so-sinkable modular sofa is just the spot to rest up after a day ambling about the city.

When it's time to explore the warren on ancient streets surrounding this home, you've got the best of the city at your feet. Soak up the vibes of the happening Koukaki quarter with its shady outside cafes and bustling bars. Blaze a trail to Syntagma Square, the heart of modern Athens. And, of course, there's always the mighty Acropolis. It's all within walking distance of the penthouse, so your only dilemma will be deciding where to head first.
