Now you can have the best of both worlds in central Athens. The convenience of being close to all of Athens' major site, and a home to call your own, away from the hustle and bustle. This luxury Athens vacation rental apartment, located on a very quiet street, is the perfect alternative to traditional Athens hotels or Athens bed and breakfasts.
Built in 2003 this luxurious penthouse is perfect for your short stop in Athens or a longer sojourn. Light, bright and airy, this contemporarily furnished 3 bedroom duplex (or 2 bedrooms and an office) with 2 full baths features a large veranda off the kitchen and open living room where you can enjoy your morning coffee away from the noise of the city. Both of the second floor bedrooms open to another veranda where you can enjoy the sun and warmth of Greece, curl up with a book. Enjoy an ouzo on the roof terrace, overlooking the Acropolis, Lykavittos, the mountains and the sea.
Planning a family reunion trip to Greece, or perhaps a study group coming to explore the ancient sites of Athens? Our twin duplex vacation rentals are exactly what you have been looking for.
A fully operational, gourmet kitchen with granite counters, dishwasher, stainless appliances and a floating island offer the chance to prepare a meal of the freshest finds from one of two nearby weekly farmers markets, or perhaps a purchase from the Central Market that you just had to buy and can't take home. Dine al fresco on the veranda, or under the stars on the roof terrace.
Just returning from a visit to the islands? Wash away the sea salt from your clothes in the full size washing machine and dryer. No car is needed to explore Athens, but if you have brought one, indoor parking is available. Spend the day sightseeing and retreat to your own personal haven, a home away from home, to rest and recharge before enjoying Athens by night.

3 Month Availability Snapshot for this Vacation Rental
"We stayed at 12 Aigypto from 9/23/06 thru 9/28/06. Yannis picked us up at the airport and took us directly to the apartment. He arranged transportation for us to Glyfada and he took us back to the airport. He was very helpful. We highly recommend him. We found the accommodation to be excellent. The pictures didn't lie. The kitchen is well appointed and stocked with basic spices. It is really quite spacious especially since it has 2 floors. Having a washer was great and I loved being able to dry my clothes outside on the line that was provided. Just as the locals did by the way. We enjoyed all that the neighborhood had to offer and found the grocery shopping good. NOTE: The AB takes major credit cards. I had difficulty using my AMEX Euro travellers checks. We took the Sight Seeing bus to get our bearings the first day and found it to be a great way to see many sites quickly and then decide which you wanted to go see for extended times. The apartment is very close to this bus stop and also the metro. The metro is very clean and fast. We also took the trolly from Glyfada to Plaka for 0.60 E, yes a mere 0.60. Incredible and while it wasn't as fast as the metro, it was very nice to see the sites and didn't take more than 45 minutes. One of the best parts of the trip was to Glyfada where we linked up with the Aegean Divers to do a shore dive. The operation is very professional, the dive was easy (entry required some walking over rocks but not problem). Visibilty was 8 meters and water temp. ~22 C. We saw many fishes at the site called "Rock Pile". Had a 67 minute dive with max depth 15 meters. Boat dives are done on the weekends only. Again, we shall return to Greece and we will stay at one of Carole's and Basil's apartments. Great views etc, can go on an on. We really enjoyed the home away from home."
