About the home
The TREE-HOUSE is suitable for 2-4 people with its own private entrance and courtyard/garden from the South of the property and with a view of the sea and the whole village from its private balcony.
* It is ideally situated for you to unlock the unique flavor of the village, within walking distance from the centre of the village and the harbor (10 min) through the Ermioni "old town". You will find the place clean and tidy, with fresh, five-star-quality linen and towels. It has a great sea view from both sides (North & South) since it is situated at the top of the hill. Ermioni village is a peninsula surrounded by sea and the property is in the quietest and safe area very close to the forest and only 150 m from the sea.
* IT’S ideal for couples or families that what to relax in a spacious and comfortable place and explore the area too.
* THERE are many sandy beaches all around our area that you have to explore and 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.
* 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).
* OUR guests should expect a very friendly family like holiday, in a private spotless property where we also spend some of our holidays. We will guide you to the best local shops and restaurants, hidden gems and the intriguing local landmarks: the things you won't find in any guidebook. This will help you escape the tourist traps and to experience the village and the area the way the locals do.
* Fancy a movie? Head to the Portoheli open air summer cinema and watch a different blockbuster every day. Want to explore other areas? Drive to the port of Costa (just a 20 minute drive away from the house) jump into the traditional “kaiki” (wooden boat) which will take you to Spetses island in just 20 minutes. Walk around the little streets of Spetses and explore the shops and the buildings.
* WHAT about a visit to Methana peninsula and its volcano and the best place for Greek desserts? What about Monastery of Avgo? Visit in a local farm? You won’t find all these in the books or in tripadvisor! Ermioni to Fournoi village through the gorge? Kounoupi beach? Scuba diving? Boat trip? Just ask and we’ll let you know, because all these are not the obvious touristy places but a lot more special. If not interested, just visit Epidavros ancient theater, Mycenae archaeological site, Nafplio town/fort, Hydra and Poros island, eat at some very nice tavervas, swim in many beautiful beaches and relax in our property.
* IF you are used to hotels, our property is simply better maintained (because it is a home), it is cheaper and about ... three times the size!

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 natural beauty, glorious beaches, charming villages and very interesting archaeological discoveries.
* OUR property 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), the Mycenae Archeological site and Museum (1.5 h), Tirinth (1.5 h). Daily visits to the island of Hydra (20 min by hydrofoil), 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 Nemea, 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 decide to stay with us, fresh seafood is a must. We prefer ... vegetarian kind of food … like stuffed tomatoes, peppers and marrow. Depending on your time of visit we can provide vegetables, mandarins, oranges, olive oil, pomegranates, etc from our own farm.
The 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 a peninsula opposite the island of Hydra. Surrounded by sea, Ermioni is a nice and lively town with some good and beautifully located restaurants near the seaside. It has a nice unspoiled forest area where one can stroll around. The area is surrounded by 100 km of coastline, including numerous private beaches where the sea is very calm and safe.
* THE village 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.
* OUR 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 of the village 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. For those looking for water sports (fun games, wind surfing, sailing, water skiing, scuba diving, etc), there are at least 2-3 places in close proximity offering such facilities.

Reviews

We spent a week here at the end of July, and would thoroughly recommend it, either as a base for touring the local sights - Epidavros, Nafplio, Spetse etc - or for simply having a relaxing break visiting some of the local beaches. We loved sitting out on the balcony for breakfast and our evening meal. When it got too hot, we could always escape inside and enjoy the air conditioning. Ermioni offers everything you need in terms of supermarkets, restaurants and local walks and is good for bathing off the rocks. For beaches, you need to go a little further afield, but with the help of Nikos' directions and maps, it is not hard to find a quiet cove, with crystal clear waters and very few people around. We visited the Corinth Canal and Epidavros on our way down to Ermioni (both definitely worth a stop) and took in some of the more local attractions during the week we were there - Spetse and Poros are easy to reach via a short drive and ferry ride, and some local caves, (that we never would have spotted without Nikos' directions), were fascinating. When we needed a doctor one day, it was good to have Yota on hand - and Nikos at the end of a phone line - to advise, and direct us to the local medical centre. We were also very grateful for Nikos' advice on the best places to visit on our way home, when we spent 3 days driving down to Monemvasia and coming back up through Sparta/Mitras, Mycenae and Nafplio - all with an amazing history and absolutely stunning views - if you have the energy to climb all the steps in the heat! We would love to go back one day and see more. |

The Tree House conducted by the owner Nikos and his wife Yota is really "something to write home about". we are family with 2 kids (6 & 8 y/o) came first time to the Tree House 4 years ago and since than we come every summer again and again. the house is well equiped with all it is needed for the vacation,rooms are comfortable and well maintained. the location is perfect , on top of the hill where all the village is seen from above.small and pleasent garden from one side and wide great balcony with view to the see from the other side gives you real tranquility. the owners Nikos & Yota sre warm and friendly couple that would do their best to help and give you good advices and recomondations. not to speak about Yota coocking with her Greece specialite. We found the house ideal for families. Nice beaches with 10-20 minutes driving and the the village of Ermioni is nice and quiet place to stroll around. Also good location to drive to Nafplion (1 hour) and to take the Hydrofill to Hydra or evening visit to the islands around of Spetes. the fact that we plan to come for the fifth time this summer speaks for itself!!! |
