Both of the second floor bedrooms open to another veranda where you can enjoy the sun and warmth of Greece, curl up with a book. Enjoy an ouzo on the roof terrace, overlooking the Acropolis, Lykavittos, the mountains and the sea.
A fully operational, gourmet kitchen with granite counters, dishwasher, stainless appliances and a floating island offer the chance to prepare a meal of the freshest finds from one of two nearby weekly farmers markets, or perhaps a purchase from the Central Market that you just had to buy and can't take home. Dine al fresco on the veranda, or under the stars on the roof terrace.
Guests in our penthouse also enjoy the use of a computer, with a high speed internet connection, but it you are bringing your own, we've got the place set up wirelessly so you can surf the internet, check email and catch up with home while lounging on the veranda.

Reviews for this vacation apartment rental in Athens, Central Greece, Greece
Carole has stocked it with everything we could possibly need: laundry detergent, bounce sheets, paper towels, new towels, Frommer’s and Fodor’s and several other guide books, etc. There is also a welcome basket with toast, nutella, small tins of Greek specialties, wine, orange juice. Then, there are instructions on how to make a frappe, along with the ingredients. There is ouzo in the fridge and an information sheet on ouzo. Also, a map of the area with a couple of nearby restaurants marked on it. Of all the places we’ve ever rented, and there have been a lot over the years, this apartment stands out for the thoughtfulness put into renovating and equipping it.
We enjoyed the souvlaki place down the street, which Carole recommended. Also, George and Athina's restaurant has wonderful home-style Greek cooking. At lunch, you walk into the kitchen and choose your food from the huge pots on the stove. In the evening, there is a wonderful rooftop terrace, where the view of the Acropolis is amazing.

We could definitely see the Acropolis from the balcony, as well as Mt. Lykvaticos. On New Year's Eve, we had the best view in town of the fire works over the mountain!
The apartment is beautiful, and more than adequate for the four of us. Everything is new and clean and well kept, the kitchen is well stocked and outfitted for in-house cooking. And the beds were really comfortable.
The location is great, making a walk to the National Gardens, Acropolis, and through the Plaka a pleasant (yet full) day's journey. Starbucks just a block away! Movie theater across the street. Plenty of supermarkets, bakeries, restaurants in the area. No one has starved in Greece for over 50 years! We'll definitely be back! Georgia Daugherty, Kuwait
The apartment is beautiful with amazing views! It is
more than a comfortable place to stay while on your
vacation! The wireless internet is such a plus when
helping to plan your trip! If you are looking for a
place to stay in Athens...STAY HERE! You will be so
happy that you did! Danielle Robinson, Norwalk, CT

Your apartment was absolutely marvellous and lovely and we all had a fantastic time. I have some digital photos we took that I can send if you want them (we took them to show folks back home our luxurious accommodation). I also got some nice photos of the sunrise and sunset from the roof top - again, sing out if your interested to see these.

Thanks again for helping to make our stay in Athens so special. we really loved it and your home was just wonderful. I am already trying to figure out how we can get back there soon.
Thank Basil again for all the troubles he went through to get us connected to the net. Hope all is well with you both and who knows, maybe we will see you again in Athens!

First of all, thank you very much for your apartment! We had some lovely days in Greece (apart from the taxi drivers :))!!!!
Thank you once more for your amazing apartment and for all your kindness during all this year of negotiation!
I just wanted to write and thank you as we ready to leave for Corfu. Your home has been an absolute sanctuary for us -- and Carole, your suggestions for tavernas and ouzerias and little tucked away places has been our guide.
The weather has been beautiful, we've thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and we're looking forward to meeting you both when our paths cross in the US.
Many, many thanks!
Lia & Christopher
