This luxury apartment is truly one of a kind. We love the private mineral water pool, perfect for a cooling swim to start your day. Then enjoy a cup of coffee and some breakfast in the courtyard gravel garden with its pots of grasses waving elegantly in the warm morning breeze. This freshly renovated home, housed in a beautiful 1930s building, is the perfect Greek retreat. Inside, we love the exposed brick walls and huge Crittal-style windows onto the outdoor space from the kitchen, while the living room has plenty of prints adorning the walls and a modern curved chandelier light. After breakfast, get ready in the gorgeous marble-clad bathroom before heading out to explore Plaka. There are plenty of eateries, as well as shops, on your doorstep. Or visit vibrant Monastiraki, known for its iconic landmarks such as the ruins of Hadrian’s Library and the Ancient Agora, under a five-minute walk away, while The Acropolis is a little further on foot.
