The villa is located in protected nature area. In a quiet spur of a mountain valley and accessible via a partially paved road of about 500 meters in length. The entrance to the villa site is protected by a remote controlled gate that opens onto the driveway to the villa. There is ample parking on site. The villa is surrounded by several terraced terraces with luxury garden furniture. The territory of Villa Livadia is surrounded by about 50 own olive trees and further pine and fruit trees. The villa gives you direct access to quiet walks, sporty hikes and mountain biking in the surrounding mountains.

What makes this villa so unique?
Villa Livadia was initially built exclusively for use by the owners and therefore is furnished with high quality objects. In this respect, this villa differs from a typical (holiday) home on the current holiday market. A large swimming pool is also part of the experience, a 70 cubic meter pool with a stunning infinity edge view.

Because of its location in a nature reserve, this is a special place in a quiet environment ideal for restoring health, feeling of well-being, vitality, imagination, creativity, strength, patience and faith.

We provide on request on-site cooking by a Greek Chef Cook a Culinary Menu for up to 12 persons., including: being served on a beautiful decorated table and terrace - free wine and water - serving and cleaning up - cooking at the villa inside and/or outside with Greek music in the background etc.

Thank you for your interest!

Beautiful pool area. Plenty of room for our party of 9. Lovely villa.
Our party ranged in age from 13-65. The villa suited us all. Plenty of individual pool areas to chill or enjoy the pool. The kitchen is a little small for a large group but we managed ok. Highly recommend.

Lovely 2nd visit
We had a great time at the villa. There was a problem which was resolved quickly and it didn't spoil our enjoyment. We played games in the pool and chilled in the sun and under the shade of the new pergola. It was perfect for everyone. Our ages ranged from 24 to 68.

A 5* villa with beautiful views and lots to do nearby
The villa is large and very comfortable (slept brilliantly the whole time) with air conditioning in every room, insect nets on all the windows (which were needed) and efficient showers and wifi connection. The pool is large and stayed very clean and the outside areas were perfect for sun-worshipping. As is made clear in the listing, the house is some way along an unmade up road and surrounded on all sides by olive groves. It does feel quite isolated at night but we felt quite secure, even without the gate to the property closed. Everything was clean and the kitchen was extremely well equipped. A great villa and we had a lovely holiday.

Sehr schönes Haus mit ein paar Einschränkungen
Wir haben das Haus mit zwei Familien mit jeweils zwei Erwachsenen und zwei Kindern für zwei Wochen gemietet. Das Haus ist wirklich sehr großzügig und sehr schön eingerichtet und der Pool ist auf jeden fall ein Highlight. Auch toll ist dass es weit und breit keine Nachbarn gibt, sodass man keinen stören kann. Es gab allerdings auch ein paar Sachen die uns nicht so gefallen haben. Die Küche war bei Ankunft unserer Meinung nach nicht ordentlich gereinigt, sodass diese am nächsten Tag nochmals durch eine Putzkraft gereinigt werden musste. Auch der Kühlschrank war nicht wirklich sauber sowie einige der Fächer defekt und nicht nutzbar. Im allgemeinen war die Sauberkeit nicht dem was wir uns für solch ein Haus in dieser Preisklasse erwartet hatten. Außerdem war eine der Klimaanlagen im Kinderzimmer defekt, die Beleuchtung des Pools funktionierte nicht und es gab ein relativ großes loch in der Decke zum unausgebauten Dachboden. In eines der Badezimmer war das Ablagefach komplett durchgerostet. Das muss einfach öfter getauscht werden oder eine andere Lösung gefunden werden. Die für uns größte Einschränkung war leider der Garten und die Wespen. Der Garten an sich ist nicht nutzbar. Der Vermieter beschreibt ihn als naturbelassen, was faktisch minimal gepflegt heißt. Sprich es gibt keine schönen Flächen die man zum verweilen oder Spielen nutzen kann. Überall liegen Dornen rum die sich durch Fliplops durchbohren. Es sind also lediglich die Terrassen draußen nutzbar. Leider gab es dort auch so viele Wespen dass wir Morgens und Abends immer drinnen essen mussten. An sich ist es ja schön mitten in der Natur zu sein, aber da hätten wir uns irgendetwas gewünscht wo man sich geschützt drunter setzten kann und in Ruhe draußen essen kann. Wir haben den Vermieter im Nachgang auf diese Einschränkungen angesprochen und dass wir diese in dieser Preisklasse nicht erwartet hatten, aber er ist nicht wirklich drauf eingegangen. Er hat alles runter gespielt und meinte wir wären kleinlich und hätten quasi nur Fehler gesucht. Nun gut, dann ist das wohl so. Man soll uns hier auch nicht missverstehen. Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub und das Haus ist wirklich toll. Hätten wir diese Einschränkungen aber im Vorfeld bereits gewusst hätten wir uns evtl. anders entscheiden. Ich bin mir sicher dass der Vermieter hier entsprechend drauf Antworten wird. Es ist ja jedem überlassen sich seine eigene Meinung zu bilden und zu entscheiden ob das für ihn passt oder nicht.

Très beau séjour
La maison est très bien située, isolée, mais proche de la mer, de villages avec des commerces et de beaucoup de centres d'intérêts culturels de la région. La vue sur la mer est superbe ! La piscine est très agréable, très adaptée pour de jeunes enfants. La maison, et notamment la cuisine sont très bien équipés. Seul bémol, la présence d'abeilles en assez grand nombre à l'extérieur, sans doute en raison de l'installation de ruches à proximité du terrain. Malgré tout, le séjour fut réussi, et particulièrement agréable !

Prachtig vakantieverblijf in schitterende omgeving
We reizen nu al veertig jaar door Griekenland en hebben ook al elders (Italië, Spanje, Frankrijk) vakantiewoningen gehuurd, maar Villa Livadia in Kantia is met stip de beste waar we ooit hebben verbleven. Hellas op zijn best. Enig minpuntje was de nogal zwakke wifi verbinding die ook één dag is uitgevallen. A minor problem, so to speak. Wie van antieke én modern Griekenland houdt, zal in Villa Livadia zeker een gedroomde locatie vinden. August Thiry

Lovely house in a stunning location
Our family of 6 adults have just enjoyed a wonderful two weeks in Villa Lavida. Most bedrooms are en-suite, making it very comfortable.The house has an extremely good air con system which means you can find comfort on really hot days/nights. It is also equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The terracing /pool area is very flexible in terms of seating/lounging and offers beautiful views. We often walked down to the village to enjoy hearty suppers with a good selection of fresh fish right on the sea front. As well as stunning views, the villas allows really excellent access to all sorts of places of interest and beautiful beaches. We went out most days to visit something and never travelled more than two hours but frequently only had to go about 40 minutes. It’s a fabulous area for Ancient Greek sites. We would have no hesitation in recommending this villa

very spacious house, great pool
We stayed for 2 weeks in villa Livadia in august. The house is spacious and well equipped, the air conditioning is just essential because of the hot temperatures. Outside, the view is really wonderful and the new pool built in the spring of 2018 is great (when not spoiled by the previous tenant... but it was quickly fixed). That said, it could be even better outside if : there were a part of the terrace with real shadow (only little roofs made of fabric, not enough in august, and by far), the garden weren't a jungle (almost all palms are dead, tall weeds everywhere). Anyway, very good rental.

Excellent villa in an authentic part of Greece
We stayed in December 2016 over Christmas and had a very smooth check-in. The villa is spacious and well appointed and we made it our home for the week. Unfortunately the area is a bit quiet over the Christmas period so didn't get to eat in any of the Tavernas in Kantia itself as none were open, but Nafplio is only 20 mins away and provided plenty of options. We see why a car is recommended - the dirt path to the house is long and unlit, but the driveway is lit well and there is an electronic security gate for peace of mind. The pool was too cold to swim in but Kantia beach is only a few minutes drive away and we swam there instead! Overall a nice place to stay, would be very different in the high/busy season but we enjoyed it nonetheless.

Excellent sejour
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la villa d'Harry. Une somptueuse villa, très luxieuse, nous avons apprécié le confort, la climatisation dans chacune des pièces ( car il fait vraiment très chaud en été), la déco , la terrasse.... Nous avons été accueillis par Frère Marcus, très disponible et d'excellent conseil. Villa bien située, à proximité d'Epidaure, de Mycènes et de Nauplie. Idéal pour 2 familles, nous recommandons vivement.

Me and my family, together with a group of friends (11 person in total) spent 11 relaxing days at Livadia villa which was exactly as the description on the web site. Property clean and well maintained and very well equipped. Very nice and relaxing place! Not far from property there were nice beaches with umbrellas and sunbeds, bars with food and drinks. At about 15 km far from property is Nafplio a beautiful town which worth to be visited (old capital of Greece - at the beginning of 19th century). Manager of property support with useful information and recommendation about surroundings. I deeply recommend this property to my friends. Cristina (Romania)

A beautiful spot which feels like paradise.
This Villa stands between olive trees on a slope between to hills with a breathtaking view on the sea below and the hills/mountains on the other side of the sea. When we arrived there it was beyond our expectations. The house itself is very comfortable and gave us a lot of privacy. First of all because of the big garden and terrace surrounding it, but also inside we had our own bathroom connected to our bedroom. We even had our own balcony. The sea was on walking distance and the most amazing thing was the fact that sometimes we felt owning the whole beach for ourselves. Although the Villa has such nice features that we could stay around the house the whole week, the area around Kantia has so much interesting places to visit that you must go outdoors and enjoy historic venues like Mycene, Epidaurus and Corinthe. In Nemea we discovered not only an acient sportstadium, but found also a very nice winery. The innercity of Nafplio is also very worth visiting. We spent many times there having typical Greek dinners in many different restaurants or just relaxing on a terrace. You hardly find there groups of tourits except from Greeks out of Athens. We really could feel being part of Greek life. The Villa was our homebase and will be our base for many times to come. First of all because there is still so much to discover and also we fell in love with this beautiful house. It was in perfect shape and immaculate clean. We really can recommend it to all our friends. What was also very nice that we could fly towards Athens International Airport and from there we could drive by car within 2 hours to this nice place. No ferries whatsoever which made it an easy acces. Laying on the terrace of this villa with all modern comfortable facilities gave us the feeling of living as gods in Greece. We hope that we're able to go back to this place as much as we can. Highly recommended, Christoffel van Hees

About the host

Hosted by Harry & Yanna Visser

Host profile image
We are a great family with a beautiful daughter, living in Amersfoort, the Netherlands. Married for the state and city administration for over 20 years, we decided that with completing our house in 2014, it was time to fulfill our biggest wish to marry for the eyes of GOD in the country that we so love. The picture was taken at our own Greek Orthodox wedding in 2014.

Why they chose this property

After many years of searching for a location to build our dream house on for the family, we found a suitable plot of land in 2008. After having all the legal paperwork done we started to build our dream in 2009. This house reflects the happiness of our family and is a great place when we are all together. We'd like to go there as often as possible.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of our house are too many to list all here. You need to experience it and find out that it has all you want to have an unforgettable vacation.
One major benefit I reveal: because this house was built to have as many of our family and friends together in one unique place, its equipped by a higher standard than any other rental property. Every bathroom has is own mosaic (hand made by my wife), the art on the wall is from a Dutch painter and from the hand of our oldest daughter, etc.
The evening and sundown is an experience every time. The sea and mountain view differ each moment and every evening. The quiet environment lets you relax.
Come and experience it yourself. You will enjoy it the same way as we do every time we are there.

To list some more benefits:
No direct neighbours, really quiet
Amidst of mountain in own valley
Surrounded by typical Greek nature
Large enclosure of about 4000 square meters
Own large swimming pool, directly adjoining the terrace
Only 700...800 m from the pebble/sand beach
Unique views every day and night
Stars and galaxy gazing every night
Supermarket, bakery and restaurant nearby.

Greek evening in Greek Atmosphere:
We provide on request on-site cooking by a Greek Chef Cook a Culinary Menu for 10 persons., including: being served on a beautiful decorated table and terrace - free wine and water - serving and cleaning up - cooking at the villa inside and/or outside with Greek music in the background.
