The nearest town is Porto Heli, which is the main tourist centre of the area and boasts a variety of activities and services (it is an important sailing centre). Other than water sports facilities (including water sport schools), the town has ample grocery shops including supermarkets (don’t miss Drougas the mouthwatering bakery) and numerous restaurants. You can also rent cars, bicycles and yachts. Though it is generally regarded as the “St Tropez” of Greece, in view of the influx of serious yachts and holiday homes of Greece’s rich and famous, it remains a beautiful pine clad bay. For something quieter head to Ermione, a small fishing village also near the Villa with many restaurants and Thursday’s farmers market (a must for stocking up for the week). The village has two sides, with the quieter south side having quaint restaurants perched on sheer rock faces, the perfect place to watch the sun set. Kranidi, the nearby hill town is the administrative centre for the area.
