In the small Messinian town of Koroni, where the sea is rarely out of sight, this impressive home combines seclusion with sophistication, offering more than enough room for the whole family.

Comprising four identical stone villas, there's plenty of privacy and cosy corners from which to enjoy some quiet time to yourself. We highly recommend making a cup of coffee and heading upstairs to read a book in the hammock, which has been placed directly in front of a window offering views over the mountains.

When it comes to family time, the patio is the place to be. Come together for a few glasses of wine around the outdoor table, or have some fun with the kids in the pool.

Stone exterior and contemporary decor mean this home offers plenty of rustic charm without sacrificing any creature comforts. Easy access to the local sandy beaches (all within a mile away), as well as the cosmopolitan village of Koroni close by, means you really do have the best of southern Greece on your doorstep.
