This villa is located on the eastern coast of the Peloponnese in Greece, a short drive from the village of Ermioni. Ermioni, formerly Hermione, is a quaint little village that sits on an outcrop facing the island of Hydra. Although it does not have a sandy beach, it is still quite possible to go swimming. The primary industry here is still fishing, and because the high speed Dolphin boats stop here it is easy to get to and from the nearby islands. There are also some interesting ruins at one end of town. Conveniences include a bank, police station, post office, and town square. Nearby Kranidi is the provincial capital. This larger town has beaches, windmills, and historic sights like the chapels of Santa Anna and Pantanassa, cared for by nuns (female visitors please wear skirts). In addition to the towns many other chapels and churches, you will find the church of St Anagyroi, where there are woodcuts and a library of rare manuscripts. Another fun excursion is the island of Hydra, where there are no cars. The only means of transportation here are donkeys, water taxis, and your own two feet! Fortunately everything is within walking distance, and there are many water and outdoor activities available. If you're interested in Greek myth, Troizina (formerly Troezen) was the birthplace of Theseus, and is reportedly the location of a spring where Pegasus once touched the ground.
