Villa Rosa overlooks the Saronic Gulf and the friendliest Greek fishing village of Epidavros. Only 1.30hr from Athens, it has views to die for and is at the heart of Ancient Greece, in the Peloponnese. It has four double/twin en-suite bedrooms and can sleep up to ten. The sea and beach are 300m in front of the villa, together with three bars, restaurants and a mini-market. We have our own 14,000-seat amphitheatre, where every weekend during the summer there is a different, sold-out theatre production. The village with shops, renowned restaurants and ancient sites (amphitheatre, sunken Roman villa etc) is a five-minute drive away or a 25-minute stroll along the beach. The villa has two fully equipped kitchens, with facilities for up to ten. Air-con throughout, huge outdoor garden - overlooking the sea, complete with dining facilities. Car parking space for 3 cars. Epidavros is a Greek locals place - full of wonderful tavernas, but we are also close to major tourist sites and attractions such as the islands of Poros, Hydra and Spetses, Epidavros Amphitheatre, Mycenae - the start of civilisation in Europe and Nafplio - the beautiful first capital of Greece. Villa Rosa is owned by a British/Greek couple who have been featured on the TV show 'A New Life in the Sun' - with their cycling and outdoor retreat that they run from Villa Rosa in the Spring and Autumn months.
Villa Rosa is a sustainable holiday villa, with solar panel hot water & heating. We decided not to build a swimming pool as the sea, a 5-minute walk in front of the villa is non-tidal and is the calmest, perfect natural swimming pool. We have an outdoor shower for cleaning and cooling down on return. We charge less than equal villas that have a pool.
