Aether in Athens

Holiday Rental Description

A contemporary sparkly haven, this apartment is stunning. With spotlights on the ceiling and porcelain tiles on the floor, you are sandwiched between class and calm. The open-plan kitchen, dining and living space is perfect for sociable mornings planning your day ahead. Stroll out onto your private balcony and embrace five minutes of peace with the sun on your face and your hands around a hot cuppa. The scent of the fresh sea air may draw you to the coastline – a short stroll of around five minutes and you’ll feel the sand between your toes. With mornings at the beach, you may fancy an afternoon exploring the city. Pick up a bite to eat and indulge in the local cuisine as you meander through the charming Greek streets.

If you make it home in time for sunset, you don’t have to venture outside. Sink into your deep comfortable sofa and watch the sky change colour through your floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the room in natural light. This is the ideal spot to put your feet up and nestle down with a good book. After a restful night's sleep, you won't need to worry about cooking breakfast – just up the road, you'll find quaint bakeries and divine cafes, so grab your pastries and gather around your balcony table to enjoy the sunrise alfresco.
