Villa on Hilltop Estate
Classic old villa built in 1905 with 180 degree ocean views. This property includes a Main House and a Guest House, each can accommodate up to 4 people. We are able to host up to 8 people maximum.
Villa Askedra is located on the mainland of Peloponneses, directly across of Poros Island. The property is privately situated near the waterfront at the Harbor Entrance on 7 acres of hillside.
The property offers old-world charm (original tile floors, decorative fireplace, antiques, piano) with commanding and unobstructed views of the harbor, Poros Island, the Saronic Gulf, surrounding mountains, and other islands nearby. The home provides complete privacy and is sheltered by tall pine trees and cypress trees. Lemon, almond and olive trees can also be found on the property.
The villa is located in an ideal environment that is quiet, yet is only a 10 minute walk to town and a 2 minute water taxi ride to Poros Island for shopping, beaches, restaurants, and nightlife. There are two large porch areas to relax and dine while enjoying the sunrise and sunsets, and view of the harbor entrance and boats passing by (the West Porch area is completely covered and sheltered by the sun). Perfect for couples, families, or those preferring a retreat-like setting. Cleaning and linen changes are included in the cleaning fee, and our favorite local cook is available to either deliver authentic greek cuisine or cook on site and at reasonable rates. Different meals can be arranged in advance and according to dietary restrictions.

A Greek home from home
The most BEAUTIFUL villa we had all stayed in. We were a group of friends/couples aged 25, 26 and 27 and we absolutely loved it. Yako is amazing at communicating and gave us so many recommendations. The couple looking after the property who live near by were just divine and we had a delicious home cooked meal cooked by them. A very memorable holiday in an extremely historical villa surrounded by gorgeous beaches, swimming and people. Thank you Yako it was so lovely.

Maison merveilleuse
Cette maison dégage un charme hors du commun. Les vues sur le mer et Poros sont magnifiques avec des lieux de vie alternés selon le soleil. Les hôtes sont aux petits soins avec de charmantes intentions à notre arrivée. Le linge de maison sent très bon :-) et le ménage à mi séjour (2 semaines) est un vrai plus. Seul bémol la vétusté de la cuisine et de ses accessoires et certaines parties des extérieurs mais c'est tellement grand que cela n'affecte en aucun cas la qualité du séjour. Galatas comporte tous les commerces nécessaires et la traversée vers Poros hyper facile et peu coûteuse. Je vous recommande entre autre le "Butcher" adorable et qui a une viande fabuleuse et le restaurant Ouzeri_Vasileris... Petit conseil utile : Louez des scooters chez Fotis (pas Stelios!), ils sont au top et vous pourrez aller partout sur l'ïle et environs de Galatas. Sur Poros il faut privilégier les restaurants un peu en dehors du port, le must étant la taverne Paradisio et la crique Vagionia Beach avec masque et tuba. Enjoy!

Wunderbare 100 Jahre alte Familienvilla.
Wunderbare 100 Jahre alte Familienvilla mit besonderer Geschichte. Entrückt von Stadt und Straßenverkehr auf einem kleinen Hügel mit altem Baumbestand und traumhaftem Blick auf den Hafen von Poros. Wenige hundert Meter vom lebendigen Städtchen Galatas entfernt mit Tavernen, Bäcker und vielen Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

Ett boende med karaktär.
Ett genuint grekiskt boende. Kanske inte supermodernt men ett intressant hus med en speciell historia som man kan läsa om i en gästbok och fin arkitektur. Fantastisk utsikt över Poros och perfekt avstånd mellan byn Galatas och bad. Enjoy!!
