Description
There is no better way to explore the Mythical Area of Nafplio than cycling. Coastal and mountainous views are harmonically combined, providing every rider with a plethora of options both on and off the saddle. The villa is located in an area which, despite the proximity to the town of Nafplio, ensures that your privacy and your need for a relaxed quality vacation time are profoundly respected, with no compromises.
Villa Starlett is a truly sea-front recently completed villa, set among pine, cypress and olive trees, with direct views towards the sea and access to a secluded beach. The villa is located on the outskirts of Xiropigado village, between Nafplio city and Astros town. Xiropigado is a small village with a few restaurants, mainly serving fresh fish and traditional Greek food, offering tranquility and relaxation.
Distance from Athens International Airport: approximately 2 hours drive.
Accomodation: Sleeps 12
The villa offers:
Freedomly designing a special ride with no compromises! Using our cycling friendly vehicles and relying on our guide’s experience, we design an exceptional ride, or series of rides, where you explore the very best Peloponnese can offer. This service is based on the idea of using our transportation capacity to set start and the finish points of your ride at places other than the villa’s site, adjusting the overall mileage and elevation according to your comfort levels, while our guides will make sure to share information on everything that matters during your ride.
Nemea is undoubtedly one of the most prominent wine areas of Greece, producing amongst others two of Greece’s flagship wines, Agiorgitiko (red) and Moschofilero (white). After the ride, we set up a complete wine tasting of some of the finest labels found in Greece. The wine-tasting can be paired with local cheese & cured meet platters or a 4 course menu with fine local recipes pairing wonderfully with the wines to taste. A marvelous way to finish the ride.
Our staff will visit the site of the villa and prepare a full and completed cycling breakfast. From cereals, greek yogurt and eggs, to the famous homemade “spanakopita” and fresh, locally produced fruits.
“Did you know that Nafplion region produces the best oranges in Greece?”
Juices, Tahini, homemade marmalades and coffee in abundance are always part of our morning service.
