Out vrbo was just like it was shown in the photos. Beautiful deck. Amazing view of the Parthenon. Two very nice bedrooms with their oun bath. There is even a separate secret powder room. It is on the 4th floor so a little stair climbing but there is also an elevator. I would stay here again

We loved everything about this beautiful apartment. It was exceptionally clean, modern, fun!! Loved the area. At night you can see the Acropolis museum lit up from your window - an unexpected treat! And then, of course, the gorgeous views of the Acropolis!! Check in was easy and thorough. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!!

Apartment with great location in Plaka neighborhood, across the street from metro line station and Acropolis museum, and within walking distance of numerous restaurants and shops, with a few small grocery stores located nearby. Amazing views of the Acropolis from large balcony, which features retractable awnings that came in handy to provide shade during middle of day and allowed us to stay dry while sitting outside during a light rain. Parthenon is awesome at night as it is entirely lighted atop the Acropolis, and is visible from one of the bedrooms. Very nicely equipped kitchen, which we put to use several times. The two bedrooms have their own private bathrooms. Given the request not to flush toilet paper due to the plumbing issuing plaguing Athens, daily or every other day housekeeping would have been nice. The host was very responsive before and during our stay. I would highly recommend this apartment for any stay in Athens.

The apartment is just as described. It is very well stocked and equipped. The view is beyond belief. My only note would be that there is limited vehicle access to the area, so if you arrive by car, you will have a bit of a walk to get to the building.

This is by far the nicest rental property we have stayed at in Athens and we have been to many over the years. The location truly can't be beat and the view is breathtaking. We were surprised by how quiet it was at night, even with all the activity nearby. It was nice to be able to walk downstairs and have so many options for coffee/breakfast in the morning, though I will say the kitchen was so generously stocked with fruit/bread/jam/coffee that we probably didn't need to go downstairs! Beds are comfortable. Constantine made the check-in/out process very easy for us. We will definitely be back (can't imagine staying anywhere else now!).

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful apartment with an amazing view of the Acropolis. The apartment was very modern, well-equipped and perfectly located for walking to major sites in the city. We had a minor incident regarding getting directions to the apartment, which we received the day before our arrival, but other than that everything was top notch.

When we booked we knew this was a special property and it was even MORE special than anticipated! The location and view of the Parthenon/Acropolis was magnificent - especially from the huge balcony. The property owner met us when we arrived to explain everything. We were left with a bowl of fruit, cheese and beverages in the refrig, and bread in the cupboard. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen were modern and spacious. I simply cannot recommend this property high enough! Thank you Yannis and Constantine!!

We had a fabulous 6 day stay at this 5 star condo with the Acropolis in the background….it was amazing in the evening on the balcony listening to all the sounds. Steps away from incredible dining and shopping. Easy access via the subway to airport. Top Notch!!

This was a fantastic Vrbo in an awesome location. You our steps away from the museum and the subway. The view of the acropolis from the balcony is breathtaking. I would highly recommend.

This property is everything that it appears to be on the VRBO website. It was clean and very well equipped. The beds were extremely comfortable. The views of the Acropolis and Museum were over the top! Since it is located in the Plaka pedestrian area the sounds that you hear are not those of traffic or loud noise but rather life noises, people talking and laughing. Wonderful music was also enjoyed from the spacious balcony. I would stay here again and again.

Wow. Views. Well supplied. Clean. Perfect location at foot of Acropolis, steps from the subway, a block from the Acropolis Museum, 50 yards to the Plaka. Great restaurants literally out the front door. Upper floor access via small lift or stairs, but worth it for the views and privacy. Quiet in a busy area. Highly recommend.

Perfect central Athens location. Excellent condo right in the heart of it all. You can walk to everything. The view of the Acropolis by day or night is magical.

The penthouse is amazing. The views of the Parthenon are unbelievable especially at night. The layout is perfect for 2 couples with 2 king beds. The location is also great with many great restaurants downstairs and a short walk to even better restaurants. The access to the apartment is easy and Constantine greeted us at the apartment to make sure we were satisfied. I would highly recommend this penthouse and the entire time in Athens was evocative!!

We started our trip to Greece in Athens. Worlds cannot express how amazing our stay was at this location. Beautiful view of the Parthenon and right in the heart of acropolis. You can see the Parthenon lit up at night from the balcony and walk around the streets of Plaka. There was so much beauty and history all within walking distance. Our hosts made the check in process very easy and were always available to connect with if needed. Beds were very comfortable after exploring all day. Look no further and book this location!

The apartment was absolutely amazing!! Even better than we imagined. The location was perfect and the view of the Acropolis was beautiful. Metro entrance was directly across the street and walking the plaka gave us access to everything we could want. The fact that the owner provided fruit, bread, meat and cheese for our arrival was a God send after a long flight from the US. Constantine welcomed us warmly and answered all our questions. I cannot recommend this listing enough!!!!

Frixos Apartment was perfect for our stay in Athens. So close to Acropolis and the Acropolis museum. Very short walks to all the excitement in Plaka, Monastiraki and sunset views from Aeropagus Hill. Metro is very convenient just outside the front door. Constantine was very helpful at check-in/out. We used Welcome Pickups from/to the airport and it worked great.

We could not have wished for a nicer place to stay in Athens. What a privilege to be in such a central location with such stunning views. The interior of the property is beautifully appointed with state of the art appliances and beautiful artwork. Comfy beds and linen complete the absolute perfect accommodation. Restaurants are directly on the doorstep!

First post-COVID travel and couldn't have picked a better place to see Athens from! If you can believe it, the apartment is even more beautiful than the pictures. First, the VIEW!!! The Acropolis dominates every vantage point from balcony, to living room and bedroom and inspires each moment. At night you can even see the Antiquities through the tall windows at the stunning Acropolis Museum behind the apartment. Then, every detail in the apartment was fantastic! It is just gorgeous and sparkling clean and everything works! You can't beat the location either. Everything is close by and easy to walk to- only needed a taxi to and from airport. Though above a wonderful busy street with restaurants, nearby market and a stones throw from The Plaka, it is surprisingly quiet inside and we had great sleep! Finally, Yannis was a fantastic host! He gave us clear instructions and met us at the property to show us around. He left us coffee, bread , cheese, snacks- all we needed to get us started and was a just text away for restaurant advice and any other question to make our stay more interesting. He also kindly accommodated a travel change we had. So, we strongly recommend staying here and we can't wait to return! For us, it will be the only place to stay in Athens!!!

The apartment was perfect for our stay. It was near all of the sites we were interested in seeing. The apartment was well appointed and had everything we needed. Our host was kind enough to supply us with snacks and coffee so that we didn’t have to run out right away.
