Notes: The apartment is very spacious and airy with marble floors throughout. Magnificent views can be seen from both rooms, and if you wake early enough, you will be stunned by the fantastic sun rises over the peninsular of Methena. The large bedroom has a double bed, and a single bed, which together with the sofa bed in the sitting room, provides very comfortable accommodation for up to four. We have had several families of four staying, and all have praised the standard. The one thing that everyone does as soon as they get out of the car on arrival is to stare spell bound at the view. The beach is at the bottom of the hill with sun loungers available at no cost - first come first served basis. Our guests can use the large pool at Aristotelis Hotel at the bottom of the hill. There is a small charge, but this includes a drink. The apartment is well equipped with place settings for six including wine glasses. There are adequate cooking utensils and kitchen knives. Tea towels are provided.

Further details for this vacation apartment rental in Epidavros, Greece

The Parthenon of Athens: It may be of interest to know that several guests who brought a telescope with them, have seen the Parthenon from the properties on a clear day.

Safety: In view of the recent concern over safety of Greek holiday properties, please note that we do NOT have any gas supply to the properties. The water and central heating boiler is oil fired, and the boiler is housed in a separate boiler house. The boiler is ventilated by a flume into a separate chimney which is higher than the roof level. We drink the water from the tap, which is very good. However, bottled water is readily available from the village, and the little grocery shops at the bottom of the hill.

Other Activities: Opera, concerts, boat trips to islands, visits to ancient sites, walking, bird watching, hydrofoil to Pireus

Fabulous!

Josh&Kirsty Coventry, UK
Review Submitted: June 23, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We had a lovely honeymoon at the Villa Rosa in April 2009.
The apartment is brilliant, with everything you would expect in a normal home. Little things like the washing machine and cooking-utilities made things so much easier. It's all very spacious, clean and comfortable, and has a good amount of privacy. The terrace is great for some sun and peace, and Epidavros is a lovely little fishing village just down the road, with some great cafes and restaurants, and enough grocery shops to keep you going. There's also a nice beach at the bottom of the hill which was nice and quiet and relaxed whilst we were there.

A car/moped/bicycle is probably a good thing as the trip through the orange groves into/back from the village, whilst lovely, can take a while. Luckily for us, Gil & Judy were excellent hosts and went totally out of their way to accommodate us and make sure we had the best holiday we possibly could, but at the same time weren't at all intrusive.

Two must-sees whilst there are the Ancient Theatre nearby and Nafplio (esp. the views from Palamidi Fortress), a brilliant little town not too far away.

All-in-all it was a great holiday, nice and warm, peaceful, with very comfortable, affordable accommodation and the freedom to do as much or as little as you like.

Thanks Gil & Judy
