Our holiday in Greece was exceptional, mainly because of this fantastic villa with swimming
pool. Although the house we chose sat at the very top of the hill - getting up there was an
adventure in itself - the view is breathtaking. We enjoyed the facilities, especially the
swimming pool and bbq - and the owners provided us fantastic, warm service. The small
town of Epidavros is nice to have a bite to eat and we used it as a base to explore other
nearby attractions. We highly recommend staying at any of the properties offered by this
family! Just be brave when going up the hill!! 🙂

We were very happy with the accomodations of this property. The place was very clean and
spacious and had a lot of character. The owners were gracious and welcoming. After a day's
trip around the region we looked forward to returning to the villa. It's a great place for
parties that enjoy cooking/grilling and appreciating the wonderful view of the Sea. We
would highly recommend this property and we look forward to our next trip to the region.

We found this wonderful place after days of checking for small high-class hotels on
Peloponnes and giving up regarding to cost-benefit relation.
We found what we were expecting: A quite place with a spectacular view, a fantastic pool
for ourselves, a largely equipped villa and very nice owners.
After one week of sightseeing, taking part in a greek wedding and driving a lot around we
were happy to stay in one place for a couple of days.
There are 4 villas and we were two couples staying in the lowermost one, which was built
first. Every villa has a fantastic view over the bay of epidavros (believe the pictures!), so that
we nearly had the feeling of an infinity pool swimming or laying in our own pool. There was
enough space to play beach ball near the pool while the women where sun bathing…
In the evening we went to the cities restaurants or we made a barbecue in the fire place
next to the pool.
The owner family was very kind and helpful, even though they had to plan a big greek
wedding theirselves at that time :-). Every guest can feel, that these villas aren`t managed by
a company but by the owner family itself! Really wonderful.
If we had to mention something negative too, their could be done some improvement
regarding the sofas or the tv-installation. But since people are staying outside all the time
anyway it really doesn`t matter.
In summary we really can recommend these villas and we are thinking to go back there
once.

What a magical house in a magical region ! The whole setting is fabulous. As the house
dominates the whole bay of Epidavros, the view is unique and enchanting. The house itself is
very comfortable, well designed and nicely furnished. It's just perfect for two families with
young teenagers as both adults and kids can have a real privacy and tranquility! Just a few
plumbering problems needed to be sorted out but nothing serious. The pool's salty water
feels great and gives the feeling to be in the sea. The garden is large and very pleasant too.
And the landlords are very sweet, always ready to help and make your stay enjoyable, with
great tips on local restaurants and activities. Definitely a place I will rent again.

We booked this house because my husband was involved in an English-speaking theatre
production that was supposed to be in the theatre but after we booked the Greek
government cancelled the festival which was sad not just for us but also for the people of
Epidavros . We were a multi-generational group including a grandmother in her late
seventies and five children ranging in age from 1 to 16. The arrangements in our house
(which was the highest of the lot) were perfect for our group with several bathrooms and
bedrooms. The house was immaculately clean and completely modern and uncluttered. This
is not normally our taste but it seemed perfect in this location and in the hot weather. We
much appreciated the air conditioning overnight.
Arriving at the house was an adventure as the drive way up the hill is very steep but we
followed our host's advice and managed to make it in a large people-carrier containing nine
people and a lot of luggage (the secret is to turn off the air-conditioning to give maximum
power to the engine). Getting up the hill became a bit of a ritual. Be aware that the house is
not really that near to the coast so unless you are pretty fit it is best to drive to the coast.
However the flip side of all this is that the location of the house is quite extraordinary

However the flip side of all this is that the location of the house is quite extraordinary
offering probably the most beautiful views I have ever experienced which change constantly
with the weather and the hour. There are plenty of different places for everyone to sit and
enjoy the view, the sun or the shade. Evening barbecues on the terrace were a pleasure and
swimming in the private pool gazing down on the sea was a joy. Believe the photos!
Epidavros town is easily accessible by car with plenty of good food shops if you want to cook
at home, lovely restaurants around the harbor and the beautiful beach with the sunken
ruins of the old settlement - well worth buying a snorkel! So all in all a perfect holiday -
beautiful, comfortable and well-equipped house with great out-door spaces and stunning
views, friendly and helpful hosts and in a great location for site seeing.

The position on a mountain gives the house a spectacular view on the blue see with little
islands in the water, like a picture. In the house you find eveything you need for the whole
family and the little town offers a lot of restaurants and points of interests. For our Kids the
large pool was the place to be. The owners are a nice family, they are very helpfully and are
looking for every wish you have. My wife and me had our 25 wedding anniversary. They
organized a little chapel with a pictured view to the see and a priest, which gave us a
ceremony.

This place is incredible! The owners are extremely kind and helpful. The view of our house
was outstanding! As we were there for only a short time we decided to watch the sunset
from our balcony and it was impeccable! The location was beautiful as this allowed privacy
yet a short walk to the center of all activity. We were impressed with the food available in
Ancient Epidauros. Honestly, we will try to come back soon.

We stayed for a week July, 2018 and thoroughly enjoyed both the villa and the town of
Ancient Epidaurus. The villa is spacious, clean, and well-equipped. The pool and pool-area
are beautifully done and well-maintained. The view from the pool, overlooking the town and
bay are unbeatable. The town itself has most everything you could want, with a pleasant
harbor and good restaurants.
The owners are available and very helpful, but never intrusive and they never disturbed us.
It is a very quite setting overlooking orange and olive groves. Both the oranges and olive oils
available in the town are superb. The villa is relatively close to Athens, 2-3 hrs if you drive
slowly, and the highways are very good. We recommend this villa and location highly (but
with some fear that it will become too popular!) We plan on returning.

This was undoubtedly the most wonderful vacation we've ever had with the kids! Everything
about this villa is perfect - its location, its size, the pool, the breathtaking view... The villa is
well equipped with everything, air-conditioned, comfortable and well maintained. The pool
is big and fun to spend time in. Our kids aged 6-16 all enjoyed it! The Home owners are very
nice and hospitable and made us feel right at home, willling to help in any way. Epidavros is
a lovely little city, which offers everything you need (food, pastry, good restaurants)
and the area ia just beautiful with its beaches and other sites. In two words: HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED!!

This was just a fantastic choice and as you know there is always a certain fear that the villa
won't be just like the pictures or the owner is hiding something. No need to worry on that
count Panos and his fabulous family have got villa maintenance and hospitality down to a
fine art. The villa has all you need for a great stay including air con, wifi, a great outside
eating area plus BBQ and one of the freshest, well maintained swimming pools we have ever
had the pleasure to swim in and every year we spend August in various villa's in different
part's of Greece. Panos, Xristina, Kaiti & Tasos and their team all work tirelessly and invisibly
to ensure that your stay is the best it can be. The villa is set in an Orange Grove, and looks
out across acres of Orange groves below in the valley. Now the benefit of that (in addition to
being able to walk around the orchard and pick sun warmed oranges (if you get the season
right as we did) is,believe it or not, there are no mosquitos to speak of. A few nights I fell by
the pool until gone midnight and not one bite!! Every morning you can wake to drink your
coffee while marvelling at the spectacular view of various islands and the extinct volcano of
Methana. So moving on to ancient epidavros itself - the small seaside town makes a ideal
location for exploring other islands / sites within 90 minutes drive, we went to the island of
Poros and Spetses - (missed out on Hydra due to the wifes bad planning) and also to Ancient
Corinth, Corinthian canal and the beautiful ex-capita city of Nafplio. Not to mention
snorkelling on the old "sunken city" and the mind blowing magnificence of the Ancient
Epidavros Ampitheatre. also the center of healing and home of many Greek myths and
legends. The town itself is quant and small but with butchers, bakers, great beach side
tavernas and a pretty large supermarket just outside for weekly essentials. Also don't forget
to check out the restaurant and the beach a short walk through the Orange groves below
the villa - Greek feasting at its finest. We went on to the Pelion from Epidavros but could
have easily stayed longer. Travel time around 2 hrs from Athens by hire car and pretty easy
to find, in fact just two roads take you to the town and then you will be welcomed at
meeting place (Orange stall) by one of the family who will escort you proudly to your holiday
home. ( The fact that it was midnight when we arrived was absolutely no problem). Anyway
before I run out of space - GO FOR IT
