Acropolis Rocks

With swoon-worthy views of the Acropolis from all angles, there’s no mistaking the location of this luxurious maisonette apartment. It’s an unbeatable sight wherever you choose to be – but those north and south-facing rooftop terraces, complete with an outdoor Jacuzzi, are the icing on the cake. Inside, the immaculate interiors speak for themselves, although it’s worth noting the third bedroom is small and has a double sofa bed that is better suited to children sharing. Set in the hip Koukaki district, you’re just a two-minute walk to the pedestrianised Dionysiou Areopagitou Street, which encircles the mighty Acropolis.

About Athens

It’s impossible to miss the Parthenon in Athens, rising up over the city and illuminated at night. For most, these preserved columned ruins are the epitome of the ancient world.
