Open Your Door On The Beach! - Private Beach Home

*This property is Disinfection Certified. All areas are covered by a systematic disinsectization and rodenticide program, as well as disinfection of surfaces and volumes internally and externally after the departure and before the arrival of new tenants.*

This wonderful holiday home rests on a small secluded bay, in between two hills, on the island of Evia, across from the mainland Attica.

Its unique location allows it to be hidden away from busy towns and certainly mainstream tourism, thus providing peace and quiet, without it being far from civilization. A small fishing village with excellent fresh fish taverns is located only 10 minutes away by car, and larger seaside towns with a more lively night life at a 20 minute drive radius. Furthermore, since the island of Evia is connected to the mainland via several ferry boats and a bridge, the Athens airport is less than 2 hours away.

The rarity of this home however lies elsewhere. Its western garden gate opens literally on a gorgeous beach with crystal clear turquoise waters spreading out before it, giving the phrase 'on the beach' new meaning. Moreover, thanks to the protection provided by the surrounding hills, the sea is always calm and inviting, even when 'Aeolos', the god of wind, is excited...

The home itself includes three bedrooms -the master bedroom with a private bathroom-, a large living room with a fireplace, dining area, and a large fully equipped kitchen. Outside, the home boasts two large terraces -one sheltered, and one completely alfresco-, both complete with dining areas, an old style stone barbecue, and a large garden which includes open areas, various fruit bearing trees and a swing set; all overlooking an enchanting sea view.

The exceptional location and layout of this holiday home is perfect for families with children, couples, or a group of friends looking for a beach-side holiday in Greece.

Perfect holiday - Beautiful and private
My family and I (4 adults, 3 kids) had an amazing time here! The house is lovely, clean, well-equipped, quiet, with views of the magnificent small bay. The beach starts literally at the edge of the enormous house garden and is almost private. I mean, we read the description before coming but we couldn’t believe how true it was! We mostly had the entire bay to ourselves for the duration of our stay. An added bonus is that the bay is protected by surrounding hills and isn’t affected by winds, plus that the water’s edge is shallow so we felt very safe for the kids. Our stay was so amazing, like time stopped at the perfect point and our family was so relaxed and happy. The entire area is hidden away from it all, we saw only a few local people who also enjoy the blissful location. We went shopping the first day and never felt the need to leave the house. Porto Buffalo village is 5 minutes by car and has shops and a couple of lovely-looking tavernas but honestly, we preferred the luxury of our privacy at the house! Irene, the house owner, and Alex, property manager both were amazing, super helpful and made our stay so comfortable and pleasant. Thank you both very much!

Simply wow
It’s a remote paradise. Super communication with the property manager and subsequently the owner. Rustic and a few things could use updating but overall the place is perfect. Huge - like 8 acres- fenced in area so our dog (and kids) could run around freely in the countryside and direct access to an absolutely stunning bay with crystal clear waters. As a friend who came to visit for lunch one day said, “epic location”. That’s an understatement.

Beautiful views, quiet beach, comfortable house with garden and lovely outside spaces.
Booking and communication with Alex at Blue Windows, was efficient, straightforward and friendly. The directions to the house from Athens are considered and detailed and we appreciated them. However had Eirini not met us in Porto Buffalo , we would not have found the house so we are grateful to her for that. Eirini could not have been more helpful to us or more friendly. She gave us a lovely welcome, despite us being late and showed us around the house. She was always available to contact if we needed help. The house is very comfortable, airy and extremely clean. There are direct views to the beautiful bay and a very short walk down through the garden to the beach . The water is calm and it is a wonderful bay to swim in and to watch the boats coming in for the day. The beach is pebbled ( which I prefer). It’s a quiet beach with usually only the people from the holiday house next door and some local residents. On our last day there was only ourselves and three or four others on the beach, so plenty of space and privacy. I had been worried about the track down to the house from the road , but it was fine. We drove slowly and there were no problems. The road between Porto Buffalo and the entrance to the track leading to the house was however for me, a cautious driver, intimidating. Often a single track , not always in great condition,with few passing places for one stretch of it and a sheer drop on one side , made it , for me, probably not for a local or more confident driver, an anxious drive. Especially when we met an oncoming articulated lorry in the dark! Apart from that we had a very restful break in this lovely place and would recommend it.

Piece of Paradise
Mbuffalo is a small fishing village located on the Island of Evia, Greece. The house is located a little further away which was a challenge to find for anyone hence we needed assistance. Once at property we couldn’t believe how private this place away. The view of the beautiful bay from the front verandah is so lovely it’s hard to believe that we had this whole beach to ourselves mostly for 6 days. We shared the beach with a couple of small boats that had made this their home for a couple of days, along with approximately 10 maximum walk in day beach lovers. This never interfered with our gated privacy to the property. There are small pebbles between foreshore and 2 meters into water but then you have sand. The water was deliciously refreshing and also warm. Would loved to have stayed longer. The negative on the property is we didn’t get to meet the owner as suggested providing us with details and things to do in area. We did meet the owners daughter who helped us find our way to property which was a blessing. The property is tired and needs to provide non speaking Greek guests an instructions manual to assit them with the operational needs. Lucky we were mechanical minded! Also have house presented in a clean ready to go for guests and not have refrigerators unclean with leftover food from previous visitors. I wasn’t a great start to our holiday however, we had a great time, the house is in an awesome location and yes if the chance comes again to visit we will.

Propriété magnifique et bien équipée
Nous avons passé 2 superbes semaines dans cette magnifique propriété calme, bien équipée et au jardin d'Eden. Jardin clôturé aux multiples arbres fruitiers dont nous avons cueilli les fruits et où nos 2 jeunes enfants sont partis en exploration avant de profiter de la mer au pied du jardin. De nombreux sites (plage, randos) dans un rayon de 30 minutes à une heure de route superbes à découvrir et avec très peu de monde. Communication avec le gestionnaire et la propriétaire simple et réactive.

Un lieu magnifique
Le plus de cette location c'est sa situation face à la mer dans une crique splendide. L'eau est calme et la plage très peu fréquentée idéal pour une famille avec enfants. Un havre de paix en bas de la maison. Pour le reste la maison est agréable et très facile à vivre avec les prestations attendues. L'accueil est très professionnel et sympathique. Une bonne adresse pour un séjour au calme loin de tout mais proche de l'essentiel.

Superbe location au bord de l’eau, dans une très belle région, au calme
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. La maison et le jardin sont très agréables. La petite plage est très calme , nichée dans une crique aux eaux limpides. Le petit port a proximité est également très tranquille avec des restaurants au bord de l’eau.

ein schönes Haus direkt am Strand
Wir haben 2 sehr erholsame Wochen in dem Haus verbracht. Es enthält alles was man so im Urlaub braucht. An den Wochenenden kamen viele Einheimische an den Strand, in der Woche hatten wir ihn fast für uns allein. Die Anfahrt zum Haus war etwas schwierig, vor allem für uns, da wir nachts angereist sind, war das ein Abenteuer.
