Stunning views, to the Acropolis from the best possible angle and to a vast part of the city.The host and owner, Marianne; understanding, accommodating of all requirements and available as much or as little as needed on the premises. Pool and rooftop terrace, such a treat on warm and cold days. 5* Star Reviews over the past years: You are visiting a new listing (February 2018) for a property rented on Homeaway since 2013 which has earned multiple only 5* reviews under a different host/manager. For 4 subsequent years the property owner, Marianne, has been the physical host, welcoming all visitors, assisting to make their stay a warm, comfortable and memorable experience. You are kindly invited to refer to just a few of the past reviews for this property from the previous listing, through the photos, as print screens, since Marianne has taken over the correspondence and full hosting with prospective visitors and is, at present, looking forward to answering all inquiries. A.U.R.A. (Acropolis Unique Residence Apartments) is a privately-owned apartment building which is composed of four large apartments for short term rentals with this one, the host’s reception office at the ground floor and home on the top floors (former small rentals). Unlike most of the newest constructions in Athens, for the entire building we have invested in renewable resources; solar energy, geothermal energy, recently replaced by heat pumps. Our aim is to guarantee an absolute heating and cooling effect with full autonomy, through an under-floor system (for long-term stays) and fan coils in all rooms, plus hot running water at all hours, and the heating of the swimming pool during the winter season. Re-cycling is realized through special bins at the ground floor of premises. Visitors are encouraged to support environment friendly actions. Please note, that in case of no vacancy or a request for an even larger accommodation, visitors are kindly asked to visit the other apartments of equal comfort, in the same building.

Three major advantages are offered here: Visitors’ comments for the spacious A.U.R.A. Penthouse all focus on four main advantages. What follows explains why; Quality accommodation; The A.U.R.A. Penthouse is situated on the 4th and 5th floor of a privately owned building. A comfortable accommodation is guaranteed as the first level of 190 sq.m offers a bright and spacious living room and a sun bathed patio with a long dining table and a wonderful view to the Acropolis, as well as a large, convenient, fully equipped kitchen. The privacy that is sought among members of a large group is also guaranteed as at the same level there are three bedrooms (2 larger ones, 1 smaller one) and 3 bathrooms while at the second level (95 sq.m) there is a large master bedroom and en suite bathroom with hot tub - jacuzzi and shower as well as two spacious walking closets, plus a spacious open space area. This works nicely either as a lounge area to the master or as a sleeping area (5th bedroom) rather flexible in terms of bedding (1-4 persons), depending on the needs. The owner's attention to a comfortable accommodation for large groups (8-10 or up to 15 guests) is safeguarded with the provision of an equivalent number of beds rather than sofas or beds in the living room area. Access to the roof top terrace and pool is through the second level. From the terrace the views to the Acropolis, the National Observatory, the Lycabettus Hill, a vast part of the city of Athens and the Saronic Gulf are spectacular. They are complemented by the beauty of the olive, orange and lemon trees and the bevy of chirping birds that have turned the terrace into their little oasis as well as visitors’ having a hard time to believe they are right in the heart of the city centre and at a short walking distance from all major attractions, shops and the neighborhood’s cafes, bars and restaurants. The swimming pool is basically private as it may be accessed occasionally just by the owner in a very discrete manner for maintenance reasons. It is enjoyed throughout the year as it is heated and covered during the winter season. A unique add-on no other property offers in the historical centre of Athens. Guests are kindly requested to note: Bath towels and pool towels are provided. Location Most probably the best in Athens.
