We were are family of six spending Christmas in Athens. The location is amazing, you are right in the middle of a neighborhood with grocery, restaurants and shops steps away. And it was possible to walk/take a tram to all of the sights. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything needed to eat in, the washer and dryer came in handy. We used Carol's driver to and from the airport which I highly recommend.

Great penthouse with fantastic verandas. Hosts are extremely helpful and can help you make the most of your stay! We did the acropolis tour with Maria, temple of Poseidon and corinth and Napflio with Nick. All the tours were amazing. Nadea made sure we had everything we needed including the sweet gift of a surprise birthday cake for my daughter. The flat had everything we wanted. We just wish our weather would have allowed us to use the rooftop and verandas more. I'm sure Carole would fix that too if she were able :)

Apartment was excellent. Would definitely stay here again. Carole, Basil and Nadia are true gems. Thank you.

Can't say enough good things about this apartment. Fifth floor with elevator. Two great outdoor seating areas. Kitchen was properly maintained and well stocked for our visit. We were given great recommendations for tours (definately do the foodie and the trip to Corinth) and the transfers to and from the airport and port were seamless. Tony and Nadia, thank you so much! Back to the apartment.... great location. Two blocks to a cab stand. Great restaurants everywhere. Three bedrooms was perfect for all four of us. Clean, neat, great neighborhood. Would use again. Thanks Carole!

We had a great time in Athens and loved the Sky Villa. It was in a good location convenient to the most popular sections for shopping and eating and felt like we were with the locals experiencing Athens the way they do every day. The Villa was extremely clean and well kept, and had everything we needed in the way of conveniences, connectivity, appliances, etc. The best part was Carol's tips and suggestions for what to do and where to eat, how to get around and great tours. Her partners for the transportation and tours were outstanding and well worth the fees. I highly recommend the Sky Villa to anyone traveling to Greece.

Great neighborhood experience with friendly bakeries coffee shops. The property is well maintained and outfitted. Nadia and Carole take pains to make sure you are oriented to the property and neighborhood with recommendations for all of your needs. It was our first visit to Athens and we loved the city. We walked to all the historic sites, about 30-40 minutes from apartment. We did tour Delphi with Chat tour great experience for a quick day trip. Our family recommends this experience.

Our family and friends were in town for a wedding and Carole's double penthouse suites were perfect for us. We loved the location, the view, the terrace, the appointments, the coffee shop downstairs. Everything. Also, Carole was a delight to deal with. If we return to Athens we will immediately see if her places are available.

The stay was great. The owner and manager were available to answer all questions and were accommodating. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed to feel at home. We walked to all of the major sights and really enjoyed seeing Athens on foot. Some people might find the walk a bit long but we did take a taxi at night a few times and it was less than 5EUR anywhere. Wish I was back there right now!

Everything perfect. Thanks Carole

Everything about this apartment is excellent, Carole , Nadia and Nick were all very pleasant and professional , I was in other apartments during my trip to Europe and by far this apartment is the best, it is well furnished well equipped and all what we needed was already there the moment we stepped into the apartment. If I go to Athens again , I will stay in the same apartment.

Our family is scattered all across the US. We were looking forward to spending time together and catching up. My brother booked a Festiva sailing vacation (awesome!)in the Cyclades and we topped it off with a week in Athens. The Athens First apartment was perfect for our needs. It offered a fill-sized refrigerator, well -appointed kitchen, two bathrooms (one with a tub!) and a lovely outdoor area where we gathered both before and after long sightseeing days. We highly recommend the foodie tour! The apartment was nicely decorated, spotlessly clean and had a much needed washer and dryer. We were welcomed with a food basket and wine, saving us from having to go to the grocery the day of check in. All in all, it was perfect for our needs. Carole, Basil, Nadia (conducted the Foodie Tour) and Nick (wealth of knowledge) were all so informative and helpful. Highly recommend a stay here!

We stayed at this delightful apartment for five days during the middle of a heat wave in Athens. The apartment was clean and well stocked! We loved the showers and the thick towels. Sitting out at night having a BBQ of lamb sausages from the butcher across the street was a lovely way to reflect on our day of sightseeing. Our three teenagers appreciated their own bathrooms and the wifi. I highly recommend a stay here if you are headed to Athens! Thanks Carole!

We were family of 5 adults. The 3 bedroom modern apartment in the Pangrati area was perfect. Safe, modern plumbing and modern appliances. Good air conditioning and a nice , comfortable additional living space on the balcony. Plenty of room. Two full and updated bathrooms. The grocery was 2 blocks away on main street. The gyro shop on the corner had great gyros for lunch or a late return- 2,5 euros each. The restaurants in the area were great. 15 min walk to Metro. 2 stops to Acropolis, 1 stop to other central Athens sites. Metro links to the Harbor for Island trips. Carole offered so much advice and help. Her arranged trips and guides were all top notch. Our adult children (all 20 somethings) had fantastic experience living like the locals. We would highly recommend. Even though we did lots of walking, there are cabs about 2 blocks away, and buses 1-2 blocks away. Cab to Syntagma square about 5 euro. Combo 5 day passes for Metro/bus/trolley only 9 euros. We LOVED our Athens stay!

This property was gorgeous, very comfortable. The A/C worked very well, which was important since Athens was 109F during our stay. The duplex is very clean. The owners have worked hard to make it comfortable. They arranged all airport transfers for us, as well as wonderful tours of the city. My favorite was the food tour with Nadia who took us through the local markets- highly recommend! The beds and bathrooms are all very clean and comfortable. Hot showers felt wonderful after a day touring the city. In the evenings, we loved walking to many local restaurants recommended by Carole (the owner) and Nadia. The location is perfect with a rooftop view of the Acropolis. There is also a washer/dryer which was nice. All of the drivers and guides were knowledgeable and very kind. I highly recommend staying in this duplex, we didn't know what to expect but it was fabulous- plenty of room, clean, comfortable, and gorgeous! We would stay again if we are lucky enough to come to Greece again!

The place has all the comforts of home. Carole has thought of everything. It is not too far from the city center, it is less of a "touristy" area and the restaurants are very good and inexpensive. The bakery was wonderful and every morning we had a delicious breakfast. Carole set up some fabulous tours for us and she takes care of everything. I would highly recommend using her expertise. Loved the food tour of Athens, and the tour to Poseidon's Temple. Carole also found us a guide for the Acropolis, she was outstanding! I will continue to use her homes, I want to go to Chicago just to use her vacation rental!!

We stayed in Carole's large apartment over Thanksgiving and had a great experience. Carole arranged for car service and several tours and all were perfect. Nadia, the property manager who did our Foodie Tour, was lovely and very responsive to any needs or questions we had throughout the week. Maria, who gave us a tour of the Acropolis, was excellent. Our only regret was not having her come with us on our day at the Peloponnese, as we would have learned so much from her. Location was great- we walked everywhere. Only thing to note is that the master bedroom is quite noisy from street traffic, but i guess that's city living.

The apt is in very good location walk distance from everything , Nadie is the person in charge for this apt (she is the best) . The owner is very helpful , Thanks Denis

Immaculate apartment in a beautiful neighborhood just minutes by taxi from all the important sites. Very nice welcome basket with different treats including a lovely bottle of wine! I can't say enough about the space--2 terraces with lovely views, a great kitchen (fully stocked with everything you might need). Perfect for a family or group of friends!
