Photos and Description of the Marathon vacation villa rental
4 bedrooms, 3 baths, accommodates up to 8-10 guests; optional bedroom suite

The villa offers a unique retreat in one of the most splendid and environmentally protected locations of Attica, a breath away from the historic site of Marathon, the lovely mountains of Gramatico and a bus ride to the Athens metro.

Indulge yourself in our luxury marble floor, 4 bedroom villa directly above the Aegean Sea. Enjoy the cool waters of our swimming pool. Relax in our verandas with the majestic, Santorini-like views. Drink your chilled ouzo experiencing the beauty of a house built on a hill overlooking the sparkling waters of the Aegean, several islands and the coast line of Attiki. BBQ in our rose garden and enjoy the view.

Villa Stella: If you would like to rent a villa that's truly elegant, deliciously secluded and incredibly spacious, you won't find any place better than Villa Stella. Just imagine over 4000 sq ft of the top two floors of the villa, forty foot ceilings in the living room and fourteen-foot ceilings in the four air conditioned bedrooms, and three large bathrooms. Add to this a huge 20' X 45' swimming pool, satellite television, and large balconies with ocean views; what have you got? Villa Stela!

You need a bit more space? We can offer you a fifth bedroom suite by the pool. Just ask !

The décor of this villa is absolutely outstanding. Beautiful marble floors, marble bathrooms, huge windows and sliding glass doors to facilitate a view of the Aegean from most rooms, gracious large verandas and porticoes, huge BBQ next to the rose garden; Large Gourmet kitchen, with oversize side by side refrigerator and outside water and ice maker, dishwasher, double sinks, ceramic stove top, convection oven, more cutlery and dishware than you need.

Villa: Family room with the fireplace right at the corner, adjoining the kitchen with a breakfast table, connects to the dining room through large French doors!

Dining room with huge expanse of windows overlooking the Aegean, opening to the huge living room with 180 degree views and a private arched veranda overlooking the Aegean, two story ceilings, huge TV and stereo. What have you got? Our Villa!

So, you want to visit Athens? Take the bus and leave the driving to the Greeks. You will be at the metro station in 30 minutes. Spend the whole day touring Athens, eat at your favorite little taverna at the Plaka take the bus home and be back in an hour. The town of Marathon is 20 minutes away. Park your car and leave the driving to others!

Things to do: Too tired today? Walk on down to the rocks and swim in our secluded cove that only the locals know about. Snorkeling or diving is incredible here in the deep blue waters of the Aegean (10-50 m). So, you are not that good of a swimmer? There are many other spots for you to discover that will meet your needs. You want to be able to walk in the water, then by all means go to the most popular crystal clear beach of Attika, Schinias beach. Swim, sunbathe and have a lovely lunch at one of the little taverns on the beach. That is 5 minutes away from villa Stella.

You don’t want to go anywhere today! No problem, stick around the pool and enjoy the view. Put a couple of steaks on the grill, enjoy a cold beer and feel right at home! We promise you!

The villa is located within 2.5 hours from Delphi, 1.5 Hours from Corinth, 50 minutes of Athens, Sounion, 30 minutes from the port of Rafina from where you can take the boat to Myconos, Andros, Tinos and 30 minutes form the national highway.

We spent a wonderful week at the villa. We have 3 boys and they enjoyed the house and the pool. The views from the villa at sunrise and sunset are the most beautiful we have ever seen. We also went to Mykonos and other isles but it was difficult to leave the house. It was georgeous. The owners are very helpful and the house has all amenities.

My family stayed in this beautiful seaside villa. As soon as we drove within ten minutes of Villa Stella we realized that the entire area is very special. It is situated on a peninsula that is uncrowded and the relatively few homes are definitely upscale. The villa itself is located at the top of a small mountain, overlooking the Aegean Sea. It is one of the most lovely views that we have seen (and we are relatively well-traveled). The owners, Vasso and her husband, live close by which is a blessing. They were extremely warm and courteous in every way. When my younger daughter landed a bad case of sunburn and we had to postpone our outbound flight by 2 days, they not only were flexible about the change but made sure that we had proper medication by contacting a nearby pharmacy and even drove us to a physician so that my daughter could be seen by a medical professional! If you want to experience luxurious living and relax next to a beautiful pool or on a veranda with a magnificent view of the Mediterranean I would heartily recommend this rental to everyone.

Thank you for a lovely stay in your beautifully positioned villa. The views of the see were breathtaking and were truly appreciated. As a base for an independent traveler, the villa has been in an ideal location with easy access to Athens by driving to the metro; an easy drive to Delphi and finally to explore the Peloponnese.

The swimming pool proved to be a great way to relax and cool down after a day spent exploring Greece and its ancient history.

Amazing Grecian Holiday

  • Stayed: May 2010
My husband and I travelled to Greece to celebrate two 40th wedding anniversaries (my parents and our very dear friends). We had the absolute pleasure and good fortune of staying at Villa Stella! The house was amazing…the view was stunning and we enjoyed the pool more than you can imagine!

Vasso was a true gem! We enjoyed the many conversations we had with her and appreciated her hospitality, humor, knowledge and recommendations. Vasso and her sister, Despina, ensured the 40th wedding anniversary celebration was a huge success by arranging for a private chef and providing such a welcoming environment! Despina and Vasso were truly gracious hosts and we could not have asked for anything more!

We took Vasso’s and Despina’s recommendation and used Stavros as our tour guide. There are not enough words to describe the value he added! His knowledge of the country, its history, culture and people was spectacular. He was so kind and accommodating! To quote my husband…”he walks on water”!

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us! We had such an amazing time!

Our trip to Greece and staying at Sella Villa with family and friends for our 40th wedding anniversary was AMAZING . The accommodations were outstanding and the views stunning. It was perfect for the 10 of us.Great location for a getaway yet close to great beaches and good restaurants. Vasso and Despina were great hostess and helpful with our travel needs. We did use Stavros as our travel guide he was extremely helpful with transfers and driving us to Dephi.Rented a van from Clio rent a car very good service.
Our stay at Stilla Villa was more than we could ever have imaged . Thanks for all your help and kindness. Cindy & Harry

All we can say is WOW! Vasso (and Despina), thank you so much for all of your wonderful hospitality. Your home was perfect for our both the "sixtysomething's" and the "thirtysomethings". The views were stunning and the pool inviting!!! You were extremely helpful and accommodating, specifically during the 40th wedding aniversery festivities...one of our favorite nights and we enjoyed toasting, talking and laughing with you both! We decided to use Stavros as our tour guide...by far the smartest thing we did our entire stay!!! He was extremely intellegent, kind and patient;) Laying out by the pool and Schinias Beach was the perfect ending to the vacation. Thank you Vasso and we hope to see you again.
