With a great location just one hundred metres from the soft golden sands of Alimos Beach, this contemporary yet classically elegant apartment for up to eight guests is a great base for a laid-back beach break close to the Greek capital. 

Enjoy waking feeling refreshed within the carefully finished spaces of this home, stepping onto the terrace to savour the rich flavours of freshly brewed Greek coffee. Then it's up to you whether to take the short stroll to the beach for a day of sun, sand, and surf. Or whether to kick back in the apartment – making use of the numerous smart TVs to stream a new series, catch up on your reading, or see what local delicacies you might like to replicate in the cosy modern kitchen.

Within just a few minutes walk from the home, you will find a local market and an authentic bakery – perfect for getting to grips with the area’s fresh produce – as well as a bus and tram stop, so exploring the rest of the town couldn’t be more convenient. 

As evening begins to make its way across the waves, take a seat on the terrace with your favourite tipple in hand, and watch as the waters begin to gleam orange, pink, and amber.

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	

Fireplace

Patio / Terrace

With impressive views of Athens’ Acropolis from this penthouse rooftop, you’ll want to spend mornings admiring the architectural remains with coffee and nights under the stars watching the moon illuminate the ancient citadel. And since it’s only a short walk away, prepare to climb the steps and discover the remains of the high city, Parthenon temple and ancient citadel that dates back to the fourth millennium BC.

We love the modern designs and clean finishes here – from the crisp palette of cool greys and whites to the thoughtful choice of contemporary furnishings. We particularly love the statement pendant light that creates a uniquely inviting ambience above the sleek kitchen, where we imagine you’ll throw together an array of Greek dishes after a day exploring the cobblestoned streets of Plaka. Though with a barbecue on your rooftop, you might want to grill up some seafood and dine under the constellations.

Exploring ancient civilisations is thirsty work, and lucky for you, there are plenty of pit stops around Athens. Stop by one of the many picturesque cafes in Plaka for a refreshing drink and homemade snack. 

After a day of uncovering the secrets of Ancient Greece, head home, draw a bubble bath and get ready for dinner. Try your hand at cooking some local delicacies yourself in the kitchen and eat in front of the fireplace, or find a local restaurant serving souvlaki – either way, you won't regret it.

Home to Kings

With wonderful sea views from the private balcony and stylish living space, this home, situated on the 5th floor, is a bit of a gem. While the open-plan living space is quite roomy, the kitchen area's work surfaces for food preparation are limited, and the bedroom is fairly compact. But the location more than makes up for any little compromises. You’ll be near the coastline of Kallithea and a stone’s throw from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, while Athens is a short drive away.

You’re right in the thick of things here so you don’t have to travel far for your next great Greek meal. Will you choose a lively bar or a family-run taverna?

Inside, a soothing medley of crisp white and slate grey keeps things feeling modern and sunny. We love the tropical feature wall in the living room which adds a pop of colour and vibrance. The compact kitchen with pretty emerald tiles has all the essentials for self-catering and there’s a second outdoor space for dinners on the balcony. That’s if you’re not too busy exploring the meze restaurants of the Plaka, a five-minute walk away. But the real highlight of this apartment is how close it is to the Acropolis, just four minutes on foot to the entrance. 

God of the Sun

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.

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.

When you’re ready to venture out for some sightseeing, you’ll find plenty to see and do within easy reach.

With an open-plan layout and a balcony with a view of the sea, you'll settle into this colourful apartment in no time. Eat dinner with a view of the Saronic Gulf, or take advantage of the large, plush sofa and gather everyone for a movie night in front of the fireplace for a cosy evening. Have your morning coffee on the private balcony and breathe in the sea breeze before you start your day, or round the day off with a glass of wine and let the ocean horizon be the perfect backdrop to a day well spent.

The tourist-heavy sights are further out, so why not visit the on-site concierge desk for travel tips and recommendations? While the high chair comes free to those bringing little explorers, a cot can be provided for an extra fee. You shouldn't expect breathtaking views from the balcony, but the outdoor space is a nice bonus.

Simple Harmony

It’s difficult to beat this home’s location in Athens’ ancient Plaka neighbourhood. Nearby to countless historic sights – including the Acropolis of Athens and Monastiraki Square – you’ll have the capital’s culture and history on your doorstep all while enjoying a comfortable stay. 

Inside the apartment, calm neutral colours set an inviting scene in the open-plan living area where a large sofa invites you to kick back and relax after a busy day of sightseeing. The sleek kitchen area is perfect for whipping up Greek snacks when you’re not out sampling the local restaurants, while the building’s communal terrace with its Acropolis views provides the ideal setting for a sunset drink. 

At the end of a long day of exploring, you’ll have the two pared-back bedrooms to retreat to for a restful night’s sleep, sure to leave you rested and raring to go for another day of Athenian adventure. 

Athenian Stallion

Minimalist and beautifully unpretentious, this warming apartment beats in the heart of Athens. An earthy palette and neutral tones create a cosy ambiance, touched with high-quality fittings and modern technology. It's the perfect place to explore this vibrant metropolis. 

To kickstart your day of sightseeing, the iconic landmarks are just moments away. Stroll to the striking beauty of The Acropolis, Temple of Zeus and Syntagma Square in just a matter of minutes. The whole city is blessed with spectacular architecture which takes days to discover. 

If sightseeing isn't your scene, hit the plethora of charming tavernas that shape the city. Share bread and hummus, complemented by the famous Greek yoghurt, or move onto the more hearty dishes of souvlaki. 

After a tiring day in Greece's capital, you can rest easy in the quiet comfort of the apartment. Super-fast wi-fi is perfect for longer stays and the smart TV is equipped with Netflix to keep you entertained in the evenings. 


Minimalist At Heart

Your contemporary Koukaki apartment is a reflection of the neighbourhood’s fresh and creative influence, with patterned accent walls and crushed blue velvet furnishings. This apartment’s location is an idyllic base from which to explore the city, and its stylistic aesthetic is the ideal restorative base. 

With clean finishes, from the soft palette of cool greys and whites to the thoughtful choice of contemporary elements - think sleek wooden floors and modern artworks - this feels like a considered home. Spend your mornings with your new read or drinking coffee on the plush armchair, or if you need to send one last email before signing off from work, the breakfast bar is a perfect space to do so - this home has you covered. 

When you’re ready to check out the city sights, you’re right in the Athenian cultural hub - named ‘Little Paris’ back in the 1980s, neoclassical buildings have been transformed into independent boutiques and eateries. Next, pass through Filopapou park to visit the historic Acropolis and its museum before exploring the cobblestoned streets of Plaka. When you’re ready to grab a bite, Geros tou Moria will indulge you with traditional Greek dishes accompanied by an energetic ambience. What better way than to end your day with a warm-hazed walk back to your central space, it’s just ten minutes away. Submerge yourself under the soft sheets with the hum of the city just outside.

Acropolis Oasis

Parking On Street

Located in Athens’ Petralona neighbourhood, this carefully styled apartment puts you in a prime spot to soak up authentic Aethenian life, while still being within walking distance of countless cultural and historic hotspots. 
 
Inside, an elegant blend of neutral tones and soft burgundys creates a sophisticated impression in the living area. We love the decorative touches here that create a real sense of elegance – from the textured throw cushions to the rainbow-coloured art on the walls, as well as the simple yet chic furnishings. Open the glass doors to step out onto a private balcony – the ideal place to begin sunny mornings over coffee and end nights with a celebraotry sundowner. And, when you’re not out sampling the local restaurant scene, the dining table back inside beckons intimate soirées over locally-bought produce and wine. 
 
When you’re ready to turn in, retreat to the beautifully dressed bed for a blissful night’s sleep and wak up to the sleek bathroom with its luxurious rainfall shower – sure to get any day off on the right foot. 
 
As for sightseeing, you’ve got plenty to see and do nearby with the Acropolis of Athens and Philopappos Hill both a twenty-minute walk, the Ancient Agora of Athens a twenty-three-minute stroll and the ​​National Museum of Contemporary Art Αthens twenty-five minutes away on foot. 


Burgundy Bloom

Sitting across from the Acropolis Museum, this apartment is a great fit for those looking to discover the ancient wonders of Athens. Just a two-minute walk from the Acropolis itself, with plenty of restaurants and bars on your doorstep, this location is hard to beat. If you're in town for work, there's a desk in the bedroom for catching up. While at full occupancy it may be a bit of a squeeze, the double sofa bed is also an added bonus. Plus, you've got a private balcony to enjoy – although there's no seating, we still think it's a lovely space to perch with a Greek coffee.
