Located deep inside Plaka, this is truly a one of a kind property for those wishing to spend their time in the most charming of Athenian neighborhoods. The house is built on 2 levels, with large homely kitchen and 3 bedrooms on the ground floor, whilst upstairs is the large and comfortable living room, a TV room/study and the master bedroom. A doorway from the lounge leads to an outside metal staircase that takes you to the roof terrace which has unparalleled views of Athens, including Lycabettus and the Olympic stadium at Kallimarmaro. Of course there are several views of the Acropolis walls, which is just behind the house. There is also a lovely back garden with shrubs and trees and lots of seating. This is a very rare find for central Athens. This charming house has been furnished with great care and detail, with old furniture, including handsome family heirlooms, antique books, tapestries and beautiful artwork on the walls. Please note there are several ancient artifacts placed in and around the house, including fragments of ancient columns and statues. These were found on the site and have been preserved. In the back garden there is also a small shrine to St. Paraskevi, which is visited by pilgrims once a year on her feast day.

The treasures of Athenian history adorn its walls and floors. Its gardens, trees and courtyards make you believe you are in a village far from a bustling metropolis. We were rejuvenated by the rest we found there, excellent air conditioning, showers, and a wonderful kitchen where the five of us cooked a feast together. Ioustinos, the family contact, welcomed us and gave us helpful advice. His tour and gift of wine were unexpected and much appreciated. There was a parking place for our car. It was a perfect oasis for us after hiking on Parnassos and ending our 2 week holiday. ##### Christopher W. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharon W.

We couldn’t believe when we entered the courtyard…. So private and beautifu. Loustino was great with communication and the check in process was easy! He also arranged for us to have a private chef, Karolos, one evening and it was the highlight of our trip. The food was delicious! The location cannot be beat. Literally steps away from the acropolis and in the heart of Plaka. Great restaurants right outside the house.

Be aware: - if travelling with folks who are elderly or who have a physical impairment, 3 out of the 4 bedrooms may not be accessible due to steep narrow stairs, a loft bed, narrow hallway or a combination of the above. ##### Dennis K.

The house was in the middle of everything - sightseeing, great restaurants and the center of town. Old, classic Greek house. Full of charm. The house is just quirky enough to grab your full attention. And the garden - awesome! One small caution - the house has some internal step ups and step downs. Nothing too drastic. But people with mobility issues should review more closely. But and awesome stay! ##### Brian M. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alisha G.

This is one of the best VRBOs we've ever stayed in. I would've loved to hear or read more of the history of the house. It seemed like it has a interesting story of its own! The house is fantastic (hidden stairs! ruins from the Acropolis! lots of outdoor space! super comfortable beds!). The location is ideal (LOVED the area and it was close to everything we wanted to see). And the owners/property managers were wonderful (we were greeted with fresh fruit and warm bread and a tour of the house). I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a place to stay in Athens. From booking to check out, this exceeded our expectations. ##### Alisha G. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joan P M.

What a special place! The house and garden are beautiful. They are rich with history (unmatched! during our entire stay in several homes in Greece) yet have all the modern conveniences and comforts needed for a wonderful stay. The kind and prompt communication with the owners and the amazing tour of the home upon our arrival helped us feel very much at home. Everyone had privacy with comfortable beds, lovely linens and clean bathrooms with plenty of hot water and nice toiletries. Most importantly, we also had many spaces to gather together. The garden which felt like a "secret garden" as it is quite large with orange, lemon and olive trees, lots of seating and a large rock that reportedly fell from the Acropolis but is hidden from the people visiting the area. The rooftop space gave us exclusive views of the Acropolis which were breathtaking especially at night. We also enjoyed an evening of fireworks in celebration of Greek Easter from the rooftop which was a great surprise. The living room area allowed another lovely space to gather in the evenings with it's well-appointed furnishings and decor yet a warmth that invited us to relax and enjoy being together. We didn't use the television room but it looked like a cozy room to watch a movie. The kitchen is well stocked with incidentals like olive oil, spices and coffee that were thoughtful and convenient. The location of the house is perfect. We were able to walk to the sites we wanted to see and had plenty of restaurants/cafes to chose from in the Plaka neighborhood. We didn't schedule a transfer from the airport to the house and took a taxi--fortunately, the owner of the house called us upon our arrival and spoke to the taxi driver in Greek allowing us to get to the right location promptly. We scheduled a transfer through the hospitality group that assists the owners for the return trip to the airport and it was seemless and timely. This house was a very special beginning to our Greek adventure. It was a great privilege to be in the presence of such history and at the same time feel so comfortable that we truly felt at home. Thank you Ioustinos, Nikolas and your family for your hospitality, kindness and sharing your captivating home with us. ##### Julianne Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Craig D.

It’s just a hundred feet or so from the fence of the Acropolis. The rooftop deck has the best view of the Acropolis imaginable at night. The house, itself, highlights its history with (seriously) glass floors in a hallway showing excavated ruins underneath. It’s just steps from the Plaka, the town’s main (pedestrian) tourist area. Wonderful restaurants, shopping. The house was perfectly set up for our arrival with local bread and wine, even. I would absolutely recommend to anyone coming to Athens! ##### Craig D.

Every inch of the place is pouring with history, every room has tons of special nooks and crannies dating as far back as the 9th century. Some where quaint to sit and rest inside or out. Would definitly stay again if we make it back to Athens. ##### Patty T. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shihchien T. Jul 10, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### You can’t beat the location With a view of acropolis and steps away from the bustling Plaka, Nikolas’ house is surprisingly private and quiet. It’s as described and the photos are true. However, it failed to capture the magic of this place. Serene courtyard, ancient wall, century old cellar were there for one to experience. Nikolas was an amazing host. He stayed until midnight to check us in (flight delay) and answered our questions days and nights. Delicious smelling bread and fruit awaited us upon arrival. This is truly a home away from home. ##### Shihchien T.

Can’t be beat. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scherry J. Jun 17, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect location! I don't even know where to begin. The villa was beautiful and packed with history and charm. We were greeted by Maria who gave us a tour of the property, answered all of our questions and made sure we had contact information in case we had more questions. She also left us a bottle of Greek wine, a loaf of homemade bread and a bowl of fruit which contained the best apricots I think I've ever eaten. As for location, the heart of Plaka with fabulous restaurants and shopping right out our door, and yet we had all the privacy we wanted within the confines of our walls. My husband and I were celebrating our 50th Wedding Anniversary and this property and our hosts certainly made for a "golden" experience. My two daughters and my grandson joined us here and every one of us felt that Athens was the highlight of our trip. I highly recommend this property to anyone staying in Athens. As for us, I hope to return here. ##### Scherry J. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter G. Jun 11, 2019 #### Athens Villa We greatly enjoyed staying at the Acropolis Villa. It is a beautifully maintained and renovated villa, and is incredibly interesting with all of its various levels, rooms, gardens, highlighted subfloor ancient ruins, etc. The owners were great hosts and very available for any questions. Highly recommended and is a calm oasis in the hustle and bustle of the Plaka area. ##### Peter G.
