Description of the Athens vacation villa rental

THE VILLA
Are you looking for a self-catering and romantic holiday rental that offers the best of both worlds, to be close to everything Athens has to offer and still away from the bustle of the city? Do you want an elegant peaceful holiday retreat with the most incredible views of the Aegean coast line and the islands, while enjoying one of the most stunning Greek vacation villas you can find? Do you want the comforts of your home, air-conditioning, central heating, WiFi Internet access, computer, printer and fax access , unlimited free International calling, washer and dryer and gas BBQ and fireplace? You have come to the right place! Stargazer Villa!

Are there two of you or eight? We can accommodate you. We can rent you just the two bedroom part of the villa or add a third bedroom and bath to accommodate your needs for just another 40 Euros per night. Just ask us! Visit our guestbook, learn from our other guests' experience!

Our villa has three main floors, of which the first floor is currently for rent (ask us about the penthouse part of the villa starting in September 2008). It is completely self contained, with its private entrances (3) and verandas (2). The rental floor has 150sq m (about 1600sq feet) of living space, with two bedrooms and two baths.

The living room, dining room and kitchen areas form a large open space, flowing easily from the kitchen with the marble pass-through to the dining room with the uninhibited view of the Aegean from the 4 oversize living room windows. Large open spaces of our living room are adorned with three stucco veneziano Doric columns, hidden lighting and marble/tiled flooring. Windows overlooking the islands will entice you to spend many an hour on the wide tiled verandas or the living room. On a clear day one can see as far as Andros, Kea, Evia and several uninhabited islands.

The master bedroom has a queen sized bed, the second bedroom includes a loft (perfect for kids and young adults) and a total of 4 single beds (or two single beds and a queen size bed). The third bedroom has a double bed with a private exterior entrance to the rest of the house. All three bedrooms have their own private bathrooms.


Area Description

THE AREA
Stargazer Villa is one of the most impressive private Greek Vacation Villas located in a 'gated" community of THEMIS by the Schinias environmental Park (the only one in Greece). Located within 50km from down town Athens, it overlooks the plain of Marathon and the most pristine beach of Greece, Schinias. The 'start' of Marathon is just a 10 minute drive from our home, access to the port of Rafina where you can pick up the boat for Myconos is just 20-30 minutes away. Corinth, Mycenae, Delphi and many other great places are within an easy day's excursion.

Only a few minutes down the hill from our villa, you can enjoy delightful swims, snorkeling, scuba diving, or diving off the rocky coast in the crystal clear waters of the Aegean Sea. This rocky untouched coast is one of the best kept secrets in Greece and it is part of our community, Themis. The water here is immediately about three meters deep. Diving off the rocks is very popular among the young and not so young! The fish and other marine life are delightful to watch while snorkeling. The rocky coastline abounds with secluded spots perfect for sunbathing in privacy.

Small children love Schinias Beach, one of the most popular in the Athens area. Unlike many beaches in Greece, it is a sand beach. The water is clean, clear, and protected from large waves and sea currents. You can walk a long way before the water comes up to your waist, about a couple hundred meters for an adult. The kids love it! It is perfect for toddlers. They learn how to swim without being afraid of the water, by playing and wading in and out.

There are many little restaurants and sports places on the beach as well as plenty of night life within 5 minutes from our community.

Owner Supplied Testimonials
10/15/07 Positive We have spent 4 weeks at Stargazer in August 2007. We would spend 44 or 444 weeks there, the villa is so comfortable, spacious, well planned and beautiful, it feels like home right away.
Despina and Stavros are by far the most gracious and kind hosts I have ever seen!
One poet said: "You can see the big thing only from the big distance". Now than I'm back to United States I can see our vacation in Greece as it was - as one sunny, wonderful, happy day, one of the happiest days in my life.
Vera Root, Princeton, NJ

09/28/07 Positive Renting this villa is the best way to experience Greece. The area is so relaxing and quiet, while the views are sensational. Despina will address your every need and make sure that your trip is perfectly planned. Don't forget to ask about Stavros and his tours! Both he and his wife were fantastic! We plan on recommending this to any of our friends and family visiting Greece!
Jim and Selena, Norfolk, VA
03/31/07 The Stargazer villa was fantastic in so many ways! It was a delightful setting for our adult family's vacation. The natural beauty of the home's location overlooking the sea was enhanced by the warm hospitality of Rosa and Stavros who manage the property for Despina when Despina is back in the US with her grandchildren. After so much e-mail correspondence with Rosa in preparation for our family vacation, I felt as though I knew her before I even arrived at this spectacular villa. Rosa's husband Stavros met us at the airport and made our transition from travelers to vacationers as smooth as a trans-Atlantic trip can allow. He even took the time to stop by his favorite bakery to assist me in purchasing a freshly-baked loaf of bread. When we arrived at the villa, Rosa was there to welcome us and help us settle in for our week in Greece. She had purchased all of the food and wine that I had requested, and then arranged for us to meet later over wine and pizza to discuss our plans for traveling around Greece during the week with the help of her husband Stavros who operates a personalized tour company. If you go to Stargazer, you definitley want to engage Stavros as your personal guide. He has so much cultural and historical knowledge to share, while all the time making you feel at home in this country he so obviously loves. Rosa and Stavros introduced us to their favorite local tavernas and helped us overcome our lack of knowledge of the Greek language by introducing us to the taverna owners and helping us order from the menu that was filled with Greek delights such as lamb chope, Greek salad, calamari, and fresh fish. I can wholeheartedly recommend Stargazer as a fantastic villa for a vacation with your family or friends!
