Seaside villa with private swimming pool and fabulous view to the Aegean sea
Clean. Awesome pool. Beautiful property. The only bad things were the stairs with no railing and the hand held showers . These things were things we just adjusted to easily

Sounio Golden View Villas
Fantastic location and a wonderful unit. Lots of room, the amenities were spot on. Easy access to a cove beach below. You can walk trails and view the Poseidon temple, took about an hour round-trip, but you can do it! This appears to be the best unit in this building. At least we thought so.
