Notes on accommodation
Air-conditioning units to each room, apartment has gas central heating for the Winter. There is a gated entry with remote control for gate to drive which leads to parking area, (one space with apartment). Built 9 years ago, and only ever rented for the Olympics and a few times - selectively since (excellent references off them will be provided), the property is set in a central location, close to beaches and main road links. and in a small apartment building with Greek neighbours, none others are rented as holiday lets thus quite and Greek, although all the neighbours are friendly and speak English.
The property is first floor with lift access, and overlooks the small junior school to the front, mostly it's playground and a bit of the building, therefore has an open aspect with few buildings and nobody is actually close by looking on to our balcony, which is delightful at night, affording property privacy.
Accessibility
Lift to all floors. A few steps up to the main door to the apartment building.
Outside
Communal gardens front an rear.
Coast/Beach
There is a free beach over the road (200 metres approx) running the whole length of the coast and lots of beaches all around the area, I have lots of photos I can provide and also can recommend some. Some charge a few Euros entry but thus have facilities eg cafe, internet, food etc, the free beaches generally do not.
Golf
Glyfada has a golf course 10 minutes away but this is not a regarded as a golfing area.
Skiing
Only on water!
Travel
Athens Airport is about 15 miles 20 minutes by taxi (25 euros). Pieriars Port is 20-25 minutes. Lots of car hire available at the airport or around town. Taxi's are cheap and very plentiful as are buses from the airport to the apartment and generally locally.
Distances
We are 0.5mile from Voula shops and restaurants, there is a supermarket a couple of hundred metres away (speak English), Vouliagmeni is 2 miles away max, and Glyfada 3-4 miles, great designer shopping town, very good exclusive shops, and very cosmopolitan. Athens is about 12-15 miles, 20 minutes away ( by car ) bus / tram a little longer, down one road all the way to the sites and history.
Further details
Lots of banks around the area, including HSBC in Voula. The area is second to none and known throughout Greece as an exclusive area. There are some great places to eat, swim and enjoy, and I can provide details of anything you need.

Guest comments
The apartment is well located, with easy access on one major road through to the centre of Athens, to Vouliagmeni, a delightful neighbouring resort about five minutes away by car and to its nearest town, Glyfada, about ten minutes by car. We used Glyfada for meals out and trips to shops – an extensive choice there which would suit many tastes.
The apartment was of a good size with two separate and bright bedrooms. A large lounge-with-kitchen leads on to a wide balcony which catches the sun up to noon. The rear smaller balcony catches the sun in the afternoon and evening. It felt much more comfortable than a we expected.
Our highest praise must go to Nigel, the owner, for he helped us out very swiftly when we lost keys just before travelling. His speedy response to all our questions also gave us confidence that what we had booked would be as so accurately described.
We’re sure that anybody booking the apartment would enjoy its location and its facilities–many thanks.
