Athens Lycabettus Hill Penthouse, private roof garden & pool

(We prepared a video that you can find in the video section, with the apartment and the surrounding area of Lycabettus hill, so that you have a good understanding of our property).
The place is unique for center of Athens. It has a large swimming pool (30m2) at the private roof garden, connected with the apartment through internal stairs. However, it is in the center of Athens not in the suburbs. The apartment is big 160m2 and occupies the whole third floor on a three floor building. However, it feels double size, since usually guests spend a lot of time at the 160m2 roof garden. The apartment is flooded with light looking at the hill trees and it has a beautiful fireplace.
The building is very nice and peaceful with five only apartments and it is some meters away from the adjacent building, making it even more peaceful and completely safe.
It is in the center of city and nightlife (7 min away by taxi from the Parliament and Acropolis), but not in the touristic and noisy center. It is in the peaceful area of Lycabettus hill right at the peripheral road of the hill, the highest living point. From the veranda the view is the hill trees, not the neighbor. From the roof garden terrace there is a panoramic view of Athens and hill trees. There is complete privacy, at both the veranda and terrace. You can swim, relax, sunbath or enjoy romance, in a healthy peaceful environment, although in the city center. The large roof garden sees north, south, east and west. It has sun bathing areas and also covered areas. Whatever you might prefer during the day. You can cook or order food and have dinner at home by the roof garden pool or at the veranda. You can swim whenever you want, day and night, with no hotel limitations.
The place has a well designed and furnished interior with paintings and decorative objects. It has all the amenities WiFi, air-conditioning etc.
In short it has it all for a relaxing, exclusive time. It is not hotel or a place to want to rush out. It is a place to stay, enjoy and spend time in the full of light living room or the big veranda facing the hill trees or at the roof garden, swimming and enjoying the view, after a site-seeing or working day. It is a real relaxation vacation home, although in the middle of Athens.
Remember that Athens has a wonderful weather almost all year around. So normally roof garden and swimming pool are enjoyable almost all the time.
As a result, the place fits perfectly to upscale couples, to families or to friends of 5-6 people that do not want the hotel limitations. People with good aura, who want to relax and enjoy, not people with anxiety, who treat the place like an impersonal hotel.

Great start to our trip!
Dimitris was the best host! Great communication before our arrival and made sure we had everything we needed to begin our trip. He met us at his property and made sure we felt like we were at home. Can’t recommend the property or host more highly. We will be back!

Athens Adventure
Dimitris was a wonderful host but property was somewhat dated and hard to navigate with party of 4 older individuals. 2 bedrooms downstairs and one upstairs with stone staircase with no handrail.Centrally located and safe neighborhood. Enjoyed it overall.

Spectacular place and a wonderful host!
The penthouse apartment is exactly as advertised. It is a great place. It is very spacious - both the inside quarters as well as the outside areas with the beautiful pool and landscaped decks. Dimitris is a charming host and extremely attentive and helpful. We truly appreciated him welcoming to the apartment and to the city. He gave us great suggestions of what to do and help arrange some transportation. We found the location in the Lycabettus Hill area to be perfect. It's a lovely and peaceful area. We could not have been more pleased with our stay and highly recommend it.

Athen rooftop sanctuary
We love the apartment, great place to stay. The rooftop has a great view, sitting area and pool. It was relaxing and enjoyable. Right across from a hill with a church and restaurant at the top where you can take a short hike to have even more beautiful views of the city. Dimitris was great and extremely helpful in making arrangements to and from everywhere we needed to go. He was very communicative before and during our stay. Many thanks Dimitris!

Amazing Penthouse on Lycabettus Hill
What a wonderful stay we had at the Penthouse on Lycabettus Hill. The property is in a perfect location. Local restaurants, markets, shops, and bakeries are just a short walk away; all historical monuments, museums other districts are a quick uber or taxi service. The penthouse is clean, comfortable, spacious, and peaceful. We were lucky that one evening Panathinaikos F.C. (local premier/professional soccer/football team) were playing a friendly match vs. Rayo Vallecano (Spain-La Liga) the city truly came to life and the atmosphere was just amazing! Just an incredible experience to witness and be part of. The host “Dimitris” is probably the best premier host that i have ever met through Vrbo. His communication was 5 star and he helped us with all necessary transfers to and from ATH airport. He was so welcoming when we checked in with fresh fruit, cold water, wine, and coffee. He sat us down and helped us navigate the area, went over the best places to visit and how to get there. He made us feel like we were part of his extended family. The property was perfect for us. We were a party of 6…no one under the age of 17. We were comfortable, never crowded, and the swimming pool was a wonderful bonus to help with the summer Athens heat. The A/C worked perfect and kept the house cool and comfortable during the day. Overall it was a 5 star experience. The views from the private terrace and pool area are worth the stay all within itself. Thank you again Dimitris, we will be back!!!

Dimitris went above and beyond by arranging cars for us, recommending places to go and even sitting down with my family with a map! The home is beautiful and the view from the pool at night is breathtaking!

Fantastic Pool Oasis in Lycabettus
Dmitris was a fantastic host. The property was in a great location, and the roof top pool was stunning. The big surprise was Dmitris art and book collection throughout the unit. Clean, safe, and family friendly.
