Carbon Monoxide Detector

It’s the kind of space that draws you in with its relaxing tones and elegant styling – inspiring a wonderful sense of lightness and joy. And with its close proximity to the Acropolis, this is the perfect setting to experience the cultural depth and heritage of the city.

The Daphne

Begin your holiday in style and get collected in a luxury car at the airport before being driven to this apartment in a building in the ‘artists’ neighbourhood of Athens. Located close to many great landmarks, and with uninterrupted views over the Acropolis and city skyline, this home offers a truly amazing experience.

Why not start your mornings here with a refreshing iced Greek frappe on your private balcony, as you admire the fantastic panorama that takes in the Lycabettus hills and, of course, the Acropolis perched high above the city? Then, head out and explore the historic landmarks including the Temple of Olympian Zeus – a fifteen-minute walk away, and the Acropolis – reachable in twenty-four minutes on foot. 

In the evening, take advantage of the shared rooftop terrace with its lounge sitting area and large dining table to relax and chat about your day, dine alfresco, or simply enjoy the magnificent sunset views which cover a 360-degree vista of the city, including a glimpse of the ocean. We would then love to end our days with an Ouzo cocktail on our private balcony admiring the sight of the Acropolis light up at night. 

Eyes on the Acropolis

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. 

Written in the Constellations

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.

If you need help planning your itinerary, your host will be more than happy to assist.

The Shadow of Athena

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.

On A Bluebird's Wing

Bright, stylish and full of thoughtful details, this homely apartment offers everything you could hope for from an Athenian getaway. Fall in love with the central location, just ten minutes from the ancient Acropolis, and spend your downtime soaking up the sun on the balcony or whipping up Greek-inspired grub in the bright kitchen.

Enjoy quiet evenings curled up on the sofa as your favourite film streams on Netflix, then retire to the restful bedroom after a sip or two of ouzo.

Whether you’re travelling for business or pleasure, you’ll love coming home to this stunning city apartment, where you’ll find all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. 

We love the feel of the interior here – think warm tones and uncluttered rooms – but it’s the outside space that really caught our eye. Boasting not one, but two private terraces, this is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. Pour yourself an evening aperitivo to sip as the sun goes down or rustle up your best home-cooked moussaka and dine al fresco under the stars. We don’t know about you, but that sounds pretty magical to us. 

Above the Olive Trees

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.

Eleos

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.

As this home is in a hotel building there are plenty of amenities and extra services, from a private chef to a communal gym and roof garden.

Athens Oasis

Dressed in beautiful earthy tones and boasting a singularly bohemian touch, this bright apartment in Athens’ Neos Kosmos neighbourhood offers a central, stylish stay in the city. 
 
From its wood floors to its rattan rug and leafy houseplants, there’s a feeling of warmth to the home’s carefully curated decor that feels instantly welcoming. We love how much natural light fills the open-plan living area, thanks to the glass doors that lead out onto a private balcony. Sit here each morning with your cup of coffee while taking in views over the neighbourhood’s rooftops, or gather at sunset for an alfresco sundowner before enjoying a meal around the dining table for an at-home feast.

A stay at this sleek top-floor apartment places you in a prime position to explore the countless points of interest in the historically and culturally rich Greek capital, Athens. With the Acropolis of Athens, the Temple of Olympian Zeus and the Philopappos Monument all within a short walking distance, you’ll be fully immersed in the city’s history within moments of leaving your apartment.

Speaking of your apartment, you'll love unwinding in this modern space – the sliding glass walls make this space feel bright, whilst the sleek furnishings are comfortable and stylish. The free-flowing layout makes this space feel like a social sanctuary – there's a large living room to gather as you map out the day’s itinerary, a sleek kitchen for whipping up some tzatziki, olives and briam vegetables, and a rooftop terrace to share your light bites and a glass of Vidiano whilst overlooking the illuminated Acropolis at the golden hour. 

When you’re ready to check out the city sights, you’re right in the Athenian cultural hub, named ‘Little Paris’ in the 1980s, where neoclassical buildings have been transformed into independent boutiques and eateries. And at the end of a sight-packed day, enjoy a warm-hazed walk home – you’ll be ready to sink into the soft sheets of your minimalist bedroom.

Koukaki Calm

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

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

Positioned just a thirteen-minute stroll from the Athenian Acropolis and even closer to the Temple of Olympian Zeus, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. You'll find it in the laid-back Koukaki-Makrigianni neighbourhood, surrounded by bakeries, shops and family-owned tavernas, and within walking distance of the city's most famous sights.

The interior is stylish and welcoming, cloaked in warm neutral tones. With an abundance of contemporary comforts, including a fully-equipped kitchen, plush seating and a high-definition TV, the open-plan living space beckons you to unwind. We especially love the furnished balcony. After a restful slumber, spend mornings perched here, sipping your coffee in the sunshine before slipping out to explore. Enjoy a morning stroll through the National Garden, thirteen minutes from your doorstep on foot, or take a seventeen-minute drive to the coast and spend a leisurely day on the white sands of Kalamaki Beach.

Little Odyssey

Explore the iconic Acropolis and the Acropolis Museum from this modern apartment – it's just a ten-minute walk or one stop on the Metro. Set in the desirable neighbourhood of Neos Kosmos – just a fifteen-minute stroll, you'll find Philopappos Hill – the views from this park are incredible. It's the same walking distance to Plaka, with its narrow cobblestone streets lined with shops.

Back at this home, relax on the patio with a glass of wine. Inside, the palette of warm hues is welcoming, and plenty of cushions, throws and plants create a homely vibe. If the Athens air turns chilly, cosy up by the fire on the chaise sofa. When you prefer to eat in, whip up some tzatziki in the blender and enjoy it with some saganaki at your dining table. This home is ideal for two couples, a family or business professionals looking for a sought-after and well-connected address.
