Athens penthouse
Review Submitted: November 3, 2007
Date of Stay: March 2007
My family stayed in this lovely penthouse in the spring. We could not have felt more at home anywhere - the kitchen had everything one could want - full size appliances and a good supply of spices, etc. in the cabinets - coffeemaker, even a toaster. We loved having coffee in the morning on the great veranda, and at night the terrace was the perfect place for a nightcap overlooking the Acropolis.
The beds were the most comfortable we have experienced in Greece, with plenty of pillows and blankets, although for most of our stay only a light blanket was needed (the apartment was heated, but we never needed the heat).
The apartment itself would have been perfect, but the owner, Carole, is by far the best conceirge we have ever encountered in all of our travels. She understood exactly what we wanted, and provided us with a great map for our do it ourselves trip. From day trips to little tavernas we never would have found, to meals that cost half of what we saw offered in the touristed Plaka area - she was really terrific.
The apartment actually looks even better than the photos! You won't go wrong staying here - we actually stayed twice!
