Horrible stay and I highly recommend you stay away from this place. Here are the reasons: 1. Disgusting mosquitoes: we arrived at the room at 23:30, and noticed that there are many mosquitoes in the bathroom (photo). There are around more than 20 mosquitoes, which is disgusting and made us feel not safe going to bed knowing the mosquitoes will bite us. My husband and I had to fight the mosquitoes for about 2 hours in order to k i ll most of the mosquitoes in the room. The host was not responding when we contacted about this, not until the next morning; and their response was “please use the mosquitoes repellent”; which we did. However using the mosquitoes repellent does not assure us of a safe sleep (which we really needed). 2. Bad location. The place is surrounded by trees and there is absolutely nothing around this accommodation. We only stayed for one night in order to wait for our flight on the next day, but you won’t be able to buy any snacks or drinks when needed. 3. Poor breakfast. The breakfast is not complimentary as shown here in Google; but costs 8,5 euros per person, which we were informed in advance. However the portion is very small (photo), fruits are not fresh and definitely not worth 8,5 euros. The only good thing about this accommodation is the airport shuttle service - the driver (Vaios) was very nice and helpful, the price is reasonable. Overall, the stay was horrible for us and definitely not worth the price.

We stayed in this property for an overnight stay as we had to catch an early morning flight. It perfectly suited us as we only needed a place to sleep and leave. But the location a bit off from the main street or shops or restaurants, and you definitely need your own transport. Because we didn’t have our own car, we paid 44 euros for the airport transfer (two ways. 22 euros per trip) arranged by the property (outsourced). So, the total amount spent on our one night stay with this property turned out to be pretty expensive (over 100 euros). Whether it is worth or not, it really depends on our own judgment. The host was kind and friendly. One thing that really bothered me was the soundproof issue. Other guest rooms were right next to each other, and I could basically hear the sound/ noise coming from other rooms. I woke up a few times when others were taking a shower or were talking loudly. Also, it was difficult to hang our coats as their cloth hanging rack is not high enough to hang even one shirt. Nevertheless, this property is only 15 minutes away from the airport.

Wonderful place to stay close to the airport! We only had one night before an early flight and didn’t want to go all the way back into Athens. The home is absolutely gorgeous and very well done - we didn’t want to leave! We enjoyed a delicious home cooked meal for dinner. Claudine and Nikolia were so friendly and helpful - they arranged our transfer to/from the airport so we didn’t have to worry about a thing. As a few others have mentioned, there are a couple dogs and cats on the property, but they are very friendly and we weren't bothered by any barking. The home is in the flight path of the airport, but we didn't hear a thing while we slept with the air con blowing and a white noise app on our phone. We had a few hours before dinner so we wandered around to check out the pistachio and fig trees, and admired the 12th century church on the property. We wouldn’t hesitate to book here again!

An excellent experience. Exactly what I needed before my flight. Very beautiful and relaxing home and property with excellent staff. Shout out to Nikolia who woke up to let me in past the check-in time when my flight was delayed, and gave me a glass of wine to help make my evening relaxing. My room was huge with a beautiful bathroom and massive doors that gave a view of the beautiful property with a little sitting area outside. It's only about five km from the airport if you use the gravel roads, which really aren't that bad it's just over 15 minutes if you use the asphalt ones. I would expect about a 10-euro taxi ride at most probably quite a bit less. It is totally walkable if need be.

Excellent facilities, good food and friendly and helpful staff - a breath of calmness after flying in or arriving from the madness of Athens. Location is close to airport (10 mins by taxi), and transport can all be arranged through Varaba - the most helpful part of booking here. The staff were in contact to coordinate collecting me from the train station when arriving there, which is hugely helpful and highly appreciated - they truly go the extra mile to help. I didn’t spend much time at the place, except to eat and sleep but the room was very large, with am exceptional bathroom, comfortable bed and excellent tea/coffee facilities. I would highly recommend staying here.

Go here. It is a small B&B located about 10 minutes from the airport and 40ish minutes from the city center. The hostess and all the staff was so nice, the rooms clean and roomy, and the lounge area/view relaxing and beautiful. Upon arrival, we were given wine, Fix beer, and crusty bread with olive tapenade and olive oil. When booking there was an option to enjoy dinner and their dinner was delicious. We ate a lovely tomato and caper salad with thinly sliced onions, fresh made hummus, feta, olive tapenade with olive oil, crusty breads, and for dinner stuffed tomatoes and peppers. The dessert was greek yogurt with honey. Everything was delicious!
