Home description
* THIS is the first year that the newly created Tree-House is offered for holidays. It's a really spotless house. The Tree-House has a great sea view from both sides (North & South) since it is situated at the top of the Ermioni hill (Ermioni village is a peninsula). It is in a quiet area (last house of the village) very close to the forest and only 150 m. from the sea. * THERE are many sandy beaches all around area, that you have to choose from. We shall provide you with all you need to know about the area, so that you will visit only the best and unspoilt. * THE Tree House is ideally situated to explore. Ermioni is very close to many famous historical sites and islands which you can visit on daily excursions (Nafplio, Epidavros, Mycenae, Hydra island, Spetses Island and Poros islands). * This FRESH, modern, non-smoking accommodation has a bright, spacious living room with large, comfortable sofa, armchair, TV, DVD, CD, dining table and chairs. Various games, books, magazines, CDs and DVDs. There is lots of free external parking (secure parking can also be arranged). * OUR guests should expect a very friendly family like holiday, in a private spotless house where we also spend our holidays (next house). The Tree House and Ermioni is a great place to be all year around. * WE are a Greek couple + our 13 years old son. Please also visit our web site (in the ‘Contact Owner’ section) for additional information on the TreeHouse holiday home.

The Peloponnese region
* PELOPONNESE is in the south of Greece and is one of the most historically important areas of the country. Ermioni village is located in Argolida which is a prefecture in the East Peloponnese. Argolida is a highly developed prefecture, blessed with stunning natural beauty, glorious beaches, charming villages and very interesting archaeological discoveries. * THE Tree House is the good base from where someone would visit many well known historical sites such as: Nafplio (1 h), the Ancient Theatre of Epidavros (45 min), Mycenae (1.5 h). Daily visits to the island of Hydra (20 min), the beautiful island of Spetses (45 min) and the island of Poros (1 h) are considered very good excursions. * THE REGION of Peloponnese has even more to offer if someone decides to drive further than to 2 hours. Places like Mani, Olympia, Monemvasia, Diros Cave, Mystras (one of the best preserved Byzantine fortress) and many more, are worth visiting if you have the time to travel. * PELOPONNESE CUISINE: Our cuisine is a delicious mix of fresh fish, meat and vegetables cooked with large amounts of lemon, onions, garlic, herbs and ... olive oil. Should you deside to stay with us, fresh seafood is a must. We prefer more ... vegetarian kind of food like ... stuffed tomatoes, peppers and marrow.
Ermioni area
Ermioni is the closest to Athens holiday area that has so much to offer (2 hours by car or high speed boat). The village of Ermioni is a beautiful traditional village that sits on an penisular opposite the island of Hydra. Surrounded by sea from both sides. * ERMIONI is beautiful during the summer and the winter with very good climate all year round. During the summer (from June until the beginning of September), average temperatures remain over 30˚C, which makes that coastal properties in Ermioni very popular during summer. The rest of the year in Ermioni remains pretty warm, with the winter months still averaging over 10˚C. * IN the village there are many traditional houses to see and there are some spots which are excellent to take great photographs. There is a folkloric museum, 5 churches, a beautiful monastery, a few bakers, 2 banks, post office, 2 pharmacies, cafes, bars, 2 supermarkets, tavernas with lots of octopus, Greek Ouzo, wine and fresh fish from the local fishermen. * THE Tree House is an ideal destination for those who want to experience a traditional Greek holiday in a family friendly environment. Walking in places like: the gorge of Katafyki or the pine covered BISTI peninsular (ideal for rock bathing) or the old town or the top of the Ermioni hill by the St. Ermioni church, is a great way to relax. * MANDRAKIA is the second port in the south side of Ermioni and is the liveliest area of the village in the evening. There are many tavernas, bars and cafeterias by the sea and we shall point out for you the best places to eat and drink. * ERMIONI is producing many local products such as the well-known olive oil and pomegranates. Don’t miss the Thursday market in the main port of Ermioni. There is a new football ground in Ermioni and at least 4-5 tennis courts around the area of Ermioni (we all play too). For those looking for water sports (fun games, wind surfing, sailing, water skiing, scuba diving, etc). There are at least 2-3 hotels in close proximity offering such facilities. We like to play tennis, football and do snorkling/fishing.
