* Villa Helios is an upscale property, ideal for up to four couples or for an extended family. * Walled for privacy (there is virtually no crime on the island), its many terraces abound in bougainvillea, jasmine, oleander and plumbago. * Imagine a multi-terraced garden, as well as a large vine-covered terrace overlooking the port and the sea; this will be your centre of activities. A perfect spot to enjoy an evening drink while watching the sun set over the distant islands. * You can also sit around the pool or on a small ideal-for-breakfast terrace, or choose another one for getting-away-from-the-crowd, to read, doze and sun yourself. * It is located on one of Hydra's highest hillside streets, above the sheltered Bay of Hydra. The views from Villa Helios are spectacular - every room overlooks the whitewashed houses, the waterfront - alive with fishing boats and elegant yachts, - and beyond the Saronic Gulf, the neighbouring Peloponnese. * The property has two comfortably furnished buildings: one contains a sitting room, dining room, well-equipped kitchen, and a mezzanine study; in the other, there are four double bedrooms (two with double beds, and two with twin-beds). All the terraces have a picture postcard view. * There are three bathrooms, one with an outside shower. * The caretaker looks after the pool and the garden; there is a change of linen mid-week. Transformers for shavers, etc. are in the bathrooms. The villa's kitchen equipment will keep the gourmet cook in you more than happy - you can cook at your leisure or eat out at many of the wonderful restaurants within walking distance of the villa.
