Epidaurus. Such a historically, culturally, and aesthetically unique area, even for Greece's standards. Reputed to be the birthplace of Apollo's son Asclepius, the God of healing and medicine, Epidaurus was known for its sanctuary, and even more for its theatre, which is still in use today; an architectural masterpiece marvelled for its extraordinary acoustics, which hosts exquisite theatrical and musical performances on cool summer evenings. This, surrounded by a landscape which is a true example of what we Greeks call ''Blessed land''. Combining steep hills, lush vegetation, and of course wonderful beaches, it is simply a delight to behold.

Epidaurus is at the heart of Greece's most treasured historical sites. A short drive in almost any direction will lead you to Ancient Corinth, the ruins of Ancient Mycenae, the Castle-port of Nauplio, Ancient Tyrinth, and several more historical sites, all intertwined with a marvellous coastal countryside. Villa Thaleia itself is separated by a 5 minute walk from a long beach boasting crystal clear waters, and a less than 20 minute drive will get you to the ancient theatre and its performances.

Villa Thaleia is surrounded by a large private garden -offering complete privacy to the estate-, filled with Mediterranean vegetation ranging from citrus trees, to herbs, spices, and home grown vegetables of all sorts just waiting to be savoured. The front-facing large patio is designed for entertainment and dinning, with large tables and chairs enjoying the shade of palm trees; while the back-facing patio and veranda lead directly to the perfectly round swimming pool, ideal for cooling off, while perhaps enjoying a glass of the local wine.

The indoors of villa Thaleia are quite unique in style, and very spacious. The two story estate boasts 2 large living rooms, 2 kitchens, 6 bedrooms with double beds (3 on each floor), 4 bathrooms, and an extra large veranda. The view from the top floor veranda overlooks almost all the gardens and swimming pool, while raising your sight will reveal the twinkling Aegean and the uniquely shaped hills of Epidaurus. The two floors are interestingly quite different in style. Classic stone and marble dominate the main living areas on the top floor, whereas lighter colours and wood prevail in the ground floor. Both floors, are wonderfully styled and especially practical, so the choice of bedroom and floor depends on your personal taste.

Villa Thaleia and its surrounding area provide an all-encompassing experience, offering a large portion of Greece's culture, history, and natural beauty, while enjoying the comfort and luxury of a marvellous traditional Greek summer villa.

September in Epidavros
We rented the full house (which is divided in two separate floors, each with 3 bedrooms, kitchen, and bathrooms) for the month of September. Checkin was smooth, with the owners present in person. Even at full occupancy (12 adults) the house was cosy and comfortable. During the first week of our stay, Greece was hit by unusually bad weather, with non-stop thunderstorms and heavy rain for more than 24 hours. It was rather epic. The house did not quite stand up to this assault, with 2 of the 3 upstairs bedrooms and the upstairs kitchen flooding due to leaking windows and roof. Fortunately, we had no guests at that point in time, and the caretaker of the house (Petros, thank you!) came to help us clean things up. It took several days for water and electric to return to the neighborhood, but after that everything was fine and great, with beautiful weather. We got compliments and thanks from all our guests for the beautiful house and the great location. The house was cleaned weekly, and fresh sheets and towels provided (Elvira, thank you!), so that everything was tip-top during our entire stay. Communications with the owners were timely, to the point, helpful, and friendly at all times. Thank you, Chris and Elpida! We would definitely recommend Villa Thalia for a family get-together of shorter or longer duration.

Best family holiday ever!
We had the perfect summer holiday here! The villa is amazing, peaceful, clean and so pleasant. A morning coffee in the veranda, watching the gorgeous private garden and enjoying a dip in the pool: heaven! This place is ideal for families. We were a group of 10 adults and 2 children and we were all accommodated. The kids loved the pool (of course!) and had a lot of space for their games, without disturbing the quiet members of our group who preferred a nice corner with their book. There is also a lot of room for dining at the veranda where everyone can be together and very comfortable. We were positively surprised at how cool it was inside the house, even though we visited during peak summer. There is airconditioning in all the rooms but we hardly needed to use it at all, especially on the ground floor. Beyond the amazing villa, the surrounding area also has so many things to offer. There is a lovely beach a few minutes away and then there are lots of places to visit. We felt like we are at the heart of Greece, able to explore all the wonderful things: delicious food, glorious sun, scenic walks, ancient ruins, towns, museums. Definitely visit Ancient Mycenae! We also spent a couple of afternoons in Nafplio, a walk around the old city downtown is a must and for the cherry on top, have some ice cream by the sea side. Thank you so much Alex, the manager and Elpida, the owner. You both made everything super easy!

Amazing family holiday in beautiful location
We had an amazing family holiday at Villa Thalia. We loved the house and Nea Epidaurus—all the sun, pool, sea, bars, restaurants, oranges, tomatoes and more than you can ask for! The place was just what we were after and really appreciated the attentiveness of the Villa team. We would definitely recommend a stay, and hope to visit again sometime soon! Thank you!

A perfect family retreat in Greece
I had the magnificent pleasure of spending 5 weeks in Villa Thallia during this Summer. The grounds look even better in person than they do on the listing! From the beginning communication with the property manager, Alex was excellent- very prompt, warm and enthusiastic, sharing the many options for travel to and around the location and assuring me that Epidarus is a great area of Greece to spend time. Upon arrival it was clear that Villa Thallia was special- sitting in grove of trees laden with oranges, grapefruits, a cherry tree, vegetable garden with cicadas creating the dramatic soundtrack. The house itself is incredibly spacious-- two floors, two kitchens, enough space for large groups to cook and eat meals together. There are plenty of little areas to settle in and read a good book or enjoy an ouzo overlooking the Sea. And the pool is great-- bigger than it looks in the picture, and a good depth for cooling off and for children still learning to swim(it's about 4 foot deep). The grounds were well maintained by the groundskeeper, Petros who cleaned the pool regularly. The house was cleaned thoroughly every week. The owners were super quick to respond to messages and once when the A/C malfunctioned they sent over someone that fixed it within an hour. They were even able to arrange a shiatsu massage at the house for us. The surrounding area was great- 10 minute walk to the beach with many Tavernas and bars to choose from. Low key tourism, friendly people, really unspoiled. Local outings recommended are the Sunken City and The Ancient Theatre. There is a friendly small grocery store a 5 minute walk away (with great local produce) and a larger supermarket that just opened a 5 minute drive away. I cant recommend this special place more highly! We will be coming back.

Large and comfortable family villa
We loved our stay at Villa Thalia. We were holidaying as 3 families and there is more than enough space to accommodate everyone without being on top of one another. The house is comfortable, safe and traditional. The owners were incredibly responsive and helpful, answering any of our queries very quickly and the couple who look after the house were also great. We loved the pool area, set amongst the orange trees, including having pool towels available for our use. Our only comment would be maybe a few more deckchairs or sun beds for relaxing as it’s so nice to spend time there. The local area was busier than we expected with probably 4 or 5 restaurants in walking distance. The local beach was also good for lazier days when we didn’t want to drive. We had lots of options for days out and enjoyed exploring the attractions and beaches a bit further afield. All in all, a fantastic holiday in a beautiful home - we loved it!

Authentic
8 adults, 4 children age 11 to 11 months staying for two weeks: the villa is spacious, ( two separated appartments) feels like your own home and the caretaker of Petras and his wife Elvira were very much appreciated.: taking care of the sparkling pool, cleaning the house once a week, watering the garden and delivering fresh oranges! The owner Chris Skindilias responded to any question or problem immediately, even late at night. we encountered an AC problem in the lower sitting room because a gecko had entered the electronic panel and shortened it, destroying one part. Instead, Chris had a new AC installed in the lower Master bedroom so the baby and parents had bearable temperatures again. (there was a heat wave during our stay) Most striking for us Europeans and Americans was the rural setting, untouched, only Greek tourists and lovely taverns at the beach with authentic food and great service. The Greek people are used to big family gatherings and were always eager to accommodate us (11) no matter how full the place was. Also: almost every person knew some English, so we (ashamed not knowing the Greek language) could easily communicate. We toured many ancient sites, watched an ancient greek drama "Prometheus bound" at the Epidaurus Amphitheater which was outstanding. At the end of every day we plunged into the pool!

Beautiful house, close to beach, quiet location
We had a beautiful vacation at villa Thalia! The booking process was easy and Alex was very quick to answer all the questions and making sure we had a great time. The house is beautiful and even better than the photos. It is located in a quiet village, among orange and grapefruit trees. It is walking distance to the beautiful beach. There are few tavernas right on the beach which serve delicious greek food and the best seafood. If you’re into history there are many historical sites you can visit 1-2 hours drive from the villa.The owners of the property are very friendly and accommodating and were always there to answer our questions. I would definitely recommend villa Thalia and I’m looking forward to return for another amazing vacation.
