Perfectly located just 25 km from Athens airport, 12 km from Lavrio, and 20 km from the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion.
The Space:
Villa Scorpio combines Cycladic charm with modern comfort, spread across three levels and totaling 360 mÂČ. Each of the five bedrooms has its own entrance, private bathroom, and unobstructed views of the Aegean. The master suite occupies the upper level, while the living room with handcrafted stone fireplace and oak flooring sits at the heart of the home, opening to spectacular sea views. A slightly raised dining area connects seamlessly to the fully equipped kitchen.

Guests enjoy exclusive use of the villaâs interior and exterior spaces, including the infinity pool, gardens, barbecue area with auxiliary kitchen, and two direct sea access points. Secure on-site parking is also available.
The Neighborhood:
Villa Scorpio is located in Pefka, a peaceful coastal area on the eastern shore of Attica. Surrounded by unspoiled natural beauty, the estate overlooks the endless blue of the Aegean and benefits from fresh sea air and a serene atmosphere.
For beach lovers, the area offers many beautiful options beyond the villaâs direct sea access. Pefka Beach is only 1 km away, ideal for a quick swim or a peaceful walk by the shore. About 8 km south lies Legraina Beach, one of Atticaâs hidden gems with golden sand and turquoise waters. Around Lavrio (12â15 km from the villa), guests can also explore Tsonima Beach (12 km), Vromopoussi Beach (13 km), Ennia Beach (14 km), and Daskalio Beach (15 km)âeach offering its own unique charm, from sandy stretches to quiet coves.
Getting Around:
Villa Scorpio is ideally located for easy travel. The Athens International Airport is about 25 km away (approximately 25 minutes by car). The port town of Lavrio is just 12 km away, offering ferries to the islands as well as shops and dining. The famous Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion lies only 20 km south, a short scenic drive. Athens city center is about 60 km from the villa, reachable in less than an hour via the Attiki Odos highway or by taking the coastal road for a more picturesque route. Guests who prefer public transport can also connect to Athens through the suburban railway network.
Other Things to Note:
The Jacuzzi in the master suite is not currently in operation. The villa underwent a complete renovation in the summer of 2024, offering modern comfort while preserving its authentic character.

Wir haben mit unserer Familie GroĂeltern, Eltern und Kleinkindern eine wunderschöne Woche in diesem besonderen Haus verbracht. Die Beschreibungen im Inserat treffen alle zu. Das Haus ist direkt am Meer gelegen, man hat einen atemberaubenden Blick!!! Auch hat man hat die Möglichkeit von dort ĂŒber einen kleinen FuĂweg durch den Garten in einer kleinen Bucht Mit kristallklarem Wasser zu baden. Die Bucht ist steinig , es gibt trotzdem Möglichkeiten ,sich auf den Steinen hinzulegen und zu sonnen. Der Pool vom Haus ist einzigartig schön, man sieht die Sonne von dort aufgehen, die alles in ein goldenes Licht hĂŒllt.Das Haus war sehr sauber, die Betten wunderbar und genĂŒgend Platz fĂŒr zehn Leute, um sich auch einmal zurĂŒckzuziehen. Unsere Kleinkinder fanden genĂŒgend Möglichkeiten , sich im und um das Haus herum auszutoben. Bei unserer Ankunft war der KĂŒhlschrank gefĂŒllt, so dass man nicht sofort einkaufen musste. In der KĂŒche findet man alles was man zum Kochen und Grillen braucht. Der Pool ist gepflegt,NebensĂ€chlichkeiten, zum Beispiel etwas verwohnte Gartenmöbel, haben uns nicht wirklich gestört. Der Weg zu diesem wunderschönen âblauen Hausâ ist nicht ganz einfach, die Umgebung weder touristisch , aber auch nicht besonders ansprechend. Man braucht unbedingt ein Auto, um einzukaufen oder ein Restaurant aufzusuchen . Dieses ist in 10-15 Minuten Fahrzeit möglich.
Nikos war jederzeit erreichbar fĂŒr uns , was wir jedoch gar nicht in Anspruch nehmen mussten . Insgesamt waren alle von uns glĂŒcklich und hochzufrieden . Wenn möglich kommen wir sehr gern wieder!
This is a very nice place for an extended family, as we were, especially if you have someone cooking. It is remote, and you have to drive a while to get to supermarkets, but the house is large and comfortable, with two rooms in a separate structure by the pool.
The roads to the house, in the last mile or so, are small and winding, but manageable.
Overall, we would highly recommend this rental.
We were a group of 10 people and enjoyed every day in the villa. Everything was as described and the landlord also helped us to get in touch with a cooking team who cooked deliciously directly in the villa. And he also made a reservation for us in a restaurant.
Unfortunately there was a problem with the payment but we could solve it in the end.

Fab villa and hosts
Great location, villa amazing, hosts couldnât do enough and available at all times. Welcome lunch was amazing.
A perfect place for relax. The house with pool and garden was very well planned and beautiful. A poolside dining area with morning sun and sea views and a dining area facing the flowering garden with evening sun. In addition, a nice dining area with barbecue kitchen indoors.
The host couple Nikos and Dina were very helpful and pleasant. Upon our arrival, the shops were closed for several days of Easter weekend so the host couple had filled the kitchen with food for several days of stay and served us a good bruschetta upon our arrival.
Thank you Nikos and Dina
We (a family of 7 adults) enjoyed our stay at villa Scorpio in week 42. The villa is really suited for a large family with two separate entrance bedrooms in the adjoining building (with access directly to the swimming pool and terrace with sea view) and the other bed rooms in the main building. This enables a holiday where you can be together but also be private if you want to. The villa is in an area that looks like a lot of large holiday houses. As we were there in late season it was very quiet and tranquil. All in all a great villa that we would love to go back to.
This is the real deal. My family of six traveled from the U.S. and were lucky enough to have booked this stay. Nikos and his wonderful wife Dina were hospitable beyond expectations, ensuring we were well cared for and comfortable throughout our stay. The property was clean with plenty of room for all; everything was perfect, fresh towels, sheets and well equipped kitchen. A stocked refrigerator was waiting for us on arrival and throughout our stay. Nikos was always available via text or phone; he even offered to help us with transportation and tour guides. He helped us arrange an in-home dinner for our final night which was by far the best food we had during our 10-day visit. We're not big city people, so the location was perfect; just 20 minutes from the airport, and an easy drive to Athens, Corinth, Lavrio, Sounion. The location is perfect, the house is fabulous, and the hospitality is unsurpassed by the finest hotels. There is no doubt Villa Scorpio is our go-to accommodations on our next visit to Greece. Thank you, Nikos and Dina. Opa!!
Heel mooie en rustige plaats met mooie praktische villa. Fantastisch uitzicht, mooi weer maar niet te warm overdag. s'Nachts rond 25 graden. Groot en proper infinitizwembad met gezellige leefruimte.
Een aanraderđ
We traveled from Florida and Texas (family of 10) to celebrate my 60th birthday. Staying at Villa Scorpio was the perfect choice. We had 3 families and the home is modeled to provide privacy for all parties, yet large and appointed perfectly to all gather for meals and lounging to discuss the wonderful daily adventures. Hosts Niko and Dena were the best assisting us with every detail from private shuttles to daily excursions. They know their wonderful country well and helped to make our trip an adventure we will NEVER forget. Thanks for the beautiful memories...we'll be back!
We were nine people (age ~25) and enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house absolutely.
The rooms are a good size and are all perfectly equipped and clean.
There are two large dining rooms and lounges and a spacious living room with great view. Also many spacious refrigerators, storage and dishes.
Both in front of and behind the house you can sit and eat in a large group. The pool is very clean as well as the entire garden. On a small path you can walk directly to the sea and after a few meters you are already on the rocks and in the water. You can go swimming in the sea easily.
The lessor ist very nice and has taken care of everything. We got a detailed house inspection and afterwards a self-prepared food which was very delicious.
Also everything you needed was already in the house prepared like toilet paper, dishwasher tablets and plenty of foods and drinks. The barbecue was very easy and made a lot of fun.
The only problem that we had was when all 9 people showered after each other the warm water was empty but with a bit of agreement this was not a problem either.
Overall, we enjoyed our stay very very much and can warmly recommend this great villa. Especially the pool with the breathtaking view has thrilled us.
Fantastic, fabulous and extraordinary villa with an astoning view of the Aegean Sea
Our three generation family spent one splendid week in this beautiful villa. We were 12 persons and we had space for being together and for privacy- for relaxing, swimming in the wonderful infinity pool and for barbecuing etc. Dina and Nikos had prepared a delicious light meal for us when we arrived and in the fridge and the kitchen were lots of good stuff for the following days. They were wonderful people. Thanks for renting us this amazing house! We had a fantastic week. Weâll be back some day.
A very exclusive house with a great view of the sea, which I will recommend to all my friends. The host was extremely hospitable and pleasant. Affordable.

We stayed at villa Scorpio for a wonderful week in July 2017. It perfectly accommodated 9 people and all promises were met. It exceeded our expectations! We definitely recommend this villa to anyone considering it, it is suitable to a mixed group of all ages. Warm thanks to the host for all the help and advice during our stay.

Paridise on earth
The location of this very special villa is perfect: 25 minutes away from the international airport and 45 minutes away from Athens city center this spot is a totally calm place surrounded by only a few other villas. There is direct access to the sea just 2 minutes away. The house is constructed in a very thoughtful way. There is one bedroom on the first floor from where you have the perfect view and direct access to a large balcony. Two further bedrooms are in a separate building together with a bathroom and mini-kitchen. They are like separate appartments. The other two bedrooms are in the basement of the main villa. Everything you need is there. A very well equipped kitchen and additional barbeque place. Depending on sun and wind there are around the building several place to relax and enjoy. The living room area is spacious and offers a unique view to the sea.The owners of the villa are wonderful people, super helpful and supportive. They have been putting together a whole set useful information for shopping, sightseeing etc.. The refrigerator was equipped with all you need for 1 or 2 days. So overall we just found paradis on earth
