The Space:
Explore the delights of the city center and the beaches of Athens from your stylish but cozy base in this sleek one-bedroom apartment in Kallithea – an off-center area whose name literally translates to beautiful view and is just 2,4 km from the heart of Athens and a mere 5 km from the sun-kissed Athenian Riviera. Sitting on a strikingly revamped building, the flat is stylish and streamlined with all mod cons so you won’t miss out on the level of luxury and comfort you’re used to. Wake up to the scent of a freshly made espresso – there is even an espresso maker in your beautifully designed kitchen – and enjoy it al fresco on your private balcony. Then the possibilities are endless. Wanna hit the beach or explore the icons? Both are within easy reach. And if you’re interested in culture, the striking National Museum of Contemporary Art and the Onassis Cultural Center are a stone’s throw away; while the stunning Stavros Niarchos Foundation a short car ride away – and bound to have something cool going on, no matter the season. And, when you return to your home-away-from-home after the day’s escapades, a world of pampering awaits. Enjoy an invigorating shower in the bathroom – it sports a powerful rain shower and looks gorgeous too — or head straight to the roof top for a cooling dip in the pool – we bet you’ll love the vistas! You can also opt to work out on the building’s state-of-the-art gym, or just stay in and relax on your sizeable couch, catch the latest series on the Netflix ready TV – there is one in the living room and one in the bedroom – or prepare a delicious meal to share with your travel mates. If you can’t be bothered to cook, on the other hand, the quaint, historic neighborhood of Koukaki is just around the corner – and it comes with a vast choice of eateries – trendy restaurants, traditional tavernas, wine bars, souvlaki joints and all sorts of ethnic options. Whether you are traveling for leisure or business or a bit of both, this beautifully and thoughtfully appointed apartment is an ideal choice.

About the area
Plaka, nestled at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece, is a charming neighborhood that offers a delightful blend of history, culture, and scenic beauty. Known as the "Neighborhood of the Gods," Plaka's labyrinthine streets and neoclassical architecture transport visitors back to a bygone era, making it a must-visit for anyone traveling to Athens.
The area is steeped in history, with landmarks such as the Tower of the Winds, an ancient octagonal clocktower, and the Roman Agora, a reminder of the city's Roman past. The district's proximity to the Acropolis means that visitors can easily combine a visit to this iconic site with a leisurely stroll through Plaka's alleys, where every turn reveals a new piece of history or a stunning view of the city.
Plaka's vibrant atmosphere is complemented by its array of shops, where travelers can find everything from handmade jewelry and traditional Greek crafts to fine art and antiques. The neighborhood is also home to numerous tavernas and cafes, offering the perfect opportunity to sample Greek cuisine or enjoy a cup of coffee while people-watching in a picturesque square.
For those interested in cultural experiences, the Museum of Greek Folk Art and the Jewish Museum of Greece provide insights into the country's rich cultural tapestry. Meanwhile, the restored neoclassical homes, some of which have been converted into small museums or galleries, add to the area's cultural allure.
Despite its popularity, Plaka has managed to retain a sense of tranquility, especially in the evenings when the day-trippers have departed. The neighborhood's winding streets and hidden courtyards become even more enchanting as the sun sets, and the Acropolis is illuminated above, creating a magical backdrop for an evening out.
In addition to its historical and cultural offerings, Plaka is also known for its lush green spaces. The National Garden of Athens is just a short walk away, providing a peaceful escape from the urban environment with its shaded pathways and quiet ponds.
In essence, Plaka is a destination that offers an immersive experience, where the past and present coexist harmoniously. Its combination of historical significance, cultural richness, and enchanting ambiance makes it an unforgettable part of any visit to Athens.
