Absolutely nothing not perfect
Villa remained cool, even in 42C heatwave, being surrounded on three sides by verandas. We kept aircon at 27C and were really comfortable. Pool is lovely and has a great view. Gardens immaculate with our own lemons for G&Ts. Host Nancy welcomed us and showed us everything and was on call if needed. Nearby Kandia beach lovely especially at each end. Recommend Oyna Thatsa - Oyna Patsa fish restaurant on beach in Vivari, and Maria’s Minimarket in Drepano.

Host was super great with communications before, during and after. Directions were great and host came to house with keys and to walk through how everything operates. There is absolutely nothing missing. Whether you have a family or just a couple once you check in you will not want to check out. Pool house was magnificent, beds comfortable and kitchen well stocked. We would be anxious to come back if we were anywhere in the area.

Best vacation at Villa Rodon
We rented this villa for us and 3 other couples and stayed for 2 weeks. It is by far better than the pictures. A great place to stay for the comfort and the location. Beautiful inside and out. Close to the beaches and restaurants. Although I don’t go to the same place twice for vacation, I would come back here again and again.

This was a beautiful property, the view was spectacular and so quite and very clean. Nancy was a wonderful host, warm and friendly, made sure we were comfortable, leaving us a bottle of wine, fruit, a cake in the middle of the week. She was easily available if we required anything. The pool was wonderful, it was so nice to have the covering on a cooler morning swim. The Gardens were beautiful, even her little Canaries were a treat to listen to beside the pool area. There were fruit trees on the property at your disposal, so nice to have fresh lemons, and peaches and loquat. We were to come in January, due the the out break of Covid we had to move the dates to May. Nancy was very accommodating. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to my clients. Thank you Nancy, we hope to return one day...

Beautiful October large family break
Have just returned home from the most amazing 8 nights at Villa Rodon. Firstly I need to thank our host.... Nancy was simply amazing From the very first communication, always super helpful and quick to respond and she was available to us at all times throughout our stay. Not to mention the welcome wine, tea, coffee and honey and the amazing local cake recieved mid week. Thank you Nancy :) We were a large family group of 9 including my parents, our three young adult sons (18-24) plus a girlfriend and our 6 year old. This villa was plenty spacious enough and had something for us all. The interior is not ultra modern but beautifully cared for, clean and perfect for our needs. Although the location is very remote and there were not an abundance of things within walking distance... I can't complain as the scenery is simply breath taking and it makes it feel all that more exclusive. We spent so much time in the villa grounds... Why wouldn't you? The garden was definitely the star of the show... Beautiful and so much thought in everything. The hammock next to the sound of birds, the table tennis and basket ball for the older boys... The pool and playground keeping the youngest extremely happy and we had several lovely bbqs. The fact you can close the shutters to completely enclose the pool is amazing for slightly cooler days and evenings. We enjoyed some lovely ventures out too to the local harbour in Vivari and into Nafplio. Which is just amazing. Cannot recommend this villa or host enough. Book it!! PS... This was my first ever experience of driving abroad... It was 2 hours from Athens so I was a little worried but have to say, the journey is really straight forward so all good.

Beautiful, elegant property in a very private setting
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this outstanding villa. We appreciated the quiet, private situation, the heated swimming pool, the sea and mountain views and the spacious, well-maintained villa. The location, near seaside resorts and close to Nafplion, was superb. Nancy was an excellent hostess.

Paradise
Stayed at villa Rodon for 11 wonderful days. The villa is really well equipped with everything you might need and the upper terrace provides a great spot to chill out and to watch the sunrise and sunset, while the lower terrace has a table and comfy sofa with lots of shade. However it’s the garden and pool area that is the real star of the show wonderful flowers, fruit trees, birds, and a great hammock. A pool big enough for a proper swim but not too deep for the less experienced swimmer. Nancy the owner was really hospitable and couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming - fruit and wine on arrival and an amazing chocolate pie! Highly recommended.

Stunning, breathtaking, relaxing but full of adventure!
Efcharistó Nancy! We can’t thank you enough for sharing this wonderful place with us! Villa Rodon is the perfect getaway. We traveled to Greece from the states and had a somewhat whirlwind tour planned over six days. We booked Villa Radon hoping it would be warm enough for our three kids aged 6 to 12 to swim in between all of our adventures. The heated pool was absolutely perfect to make this happen as in late March the weather was beautiful at 72 degrees Fahrenheit but not warm enough to rely on natural heat for the water. The kids could not get enough of the fun times in the pool. Other than that, the home suited our needs so well. There are four bedrooms and three full baths, along with a washer. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full-size refrigerator and dishwasher. The views of the sea from the house are absolutely breathtaking. We sat on the upper deck to enjoy sunrise and sunset. The gardens are beautiful, with fresh lemons on the trees and more. There is also so much activity in the general area. Downtown Napfplio is absolutely picture perfect and makes for a wonderful stroll. Drive up to the fortress for immense views of the city from above. Epidaurus, Mycenae, Argos, and Corinth are close drives and allowed for a lot of great exploration and lessons in ancient history for both the adults and kids. The beaches are spectacular. The great thing about Kondili Beach (a beautiful beach a short drive down the mountain road) is that it is situated on an inlet and therefore the water is very calm. Perfect area for kids to play without waves overpowering them, and the water is crystal clear. I can’t say enough about the wonderful villa and Nancy as the host. She really went out of her way to make us feel welcome. She was very accommodating and we knew we were in good hands from the start. We will definitely return to Villa Rodon someday! Don’t pass by this gem!

Saubere und schöne Unterkunft mit sehr gutem Service
Wir haben im Herbst 10 Tage in der Villa Rodon verbracht und waren vom guten Service und der Sauberkeit der Unterkunft positiv überrascht. Da haben wir in Griechenland schon ganz Anderes erlebt. Die Villa ist sehr gut ausgestattet und Nancy überrascht mit einem super Service und kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten. Der beheizte Pool mit Whirlpool war eine Wucht. Pool wurde ca. alle 3 Tage gereinigt, das Haus 1x die Woche. Wifi ist zwar vorhanden, aber nicht das Schnellste. Mit etwas Geduld reicht es aber zum Surfen und für Emails. Die Villa verfügt über eine gepflegte und grosse Gartenanlage, da findet jeder ein schönes Plätzchen zum Entspannen. Können die Villa Jedem ohne Einschränkung weiter empfehlen. Einzige Kritikpunkte sind das langsame Internet und fehlender Wasserdruck im oberen Bad (Duschen kaum möglich - in den unteren Bädern absolut problemlos). Ein Auto ist übrigens Pflicht, da die Villa doch etwas abgelegen vom Geschehen ist. Ein grosses Dankeschön an Nancy, wir kommen gerne wieder!

Exceptional villa in a superb location
Our holidays in Europe and namely France, Italy, Spain and Greece over the past 35 years have mainly been in detached villas as we feel that this mode of accommodation enables one to experience the true way of life of the Country in question.. We have stayed in some exceptional villas and locations but without doubt villa Roden in our opinion is by far the best. The accommodation is excellent, the gardens give you the impression you are in a tropical paradise, the views are to die for but above all the hospitality, kindness and helpfull nature of Nancy Hatjiantoniou makes the difference. One day and hopefully not too long we shall return. Rita and Phillip Georgakis, Marie and Bryan Drinkall

Our stay at Villa Rodon was a perfect escape. Nancy was fantastic very approachable and easy to contact. The pool was a great hit, much bigger than it looks in the pictures and the jacuzzi was a real surprise. Views were stunning and location very quiet.

Beautiful Villa with a glorious garden and pool
We really enjoyed this holiday. The villa is gorgeous and Nancy is a fantastic host always taking care of us. The villa was very clean and well maintained, exactly as described. Check-in was easy and after one week the house was cleaned and the linen and towels renewed. Thanks Nancy. As already described by others: the heated pool is really the highlight. Swimming in warm water in October was great. Also the roof terrace with its fantastic view was a nice place in the morning and in the evening. Thank you very much Nancy for giving us the opportunity to stay in your villa. Whenever we will visit again the Peleponnes, we will book your villa.

We had a very nice holiday at the villa Rodon the last week of August 2023. Very clean villa and very well kept garden ; perfect for a family with children. Calm surroundings ; no traffic, a few neighbours, but no sound whatsoever heard from them during the whole week. Beautiful view over the sea (not really within walking distance). Nancy, the owner, is a very nice person, easy to join and who makes big efforts to make her tenants feel welcome and confortable. We enjoyed our stay !

Perfekte Location, perfekte Kommunikation
Phänomenale Lage mit Aussicht aufs Meer der beheizte Pool hatte durchgehend 29°C und im Oktober hatten wir 27°C den halben Tag über bei strahlendem Sonnenschein. Am Pool und im sehr schön angelegten Garten ist es wundervoll. Aus dem Gemüsegarten darf man sich bedienen (Salat, Paprika, Gurken, Zitronen...) Das Haus selbst hat eine tolle Dachterrasse, die wie der ganze Garten- und Poolbereich nicht einzusehen ist. Nachbarn gibt es ohnehin nur drei - und die sind 50m vor der Einfahrt. Innen ist alles hübsch, gut ausgestattet, allerdings teils etwas alt. Internet ist mit 10/1,5 Mbit/s in Ordnung, Videokonferenz hat funktioniert. WLan ist sogar am Pool stabil vorhanden. Mit dem Auto ist man in 3min an den Kiesstrand (Kondyli Beach) runtergefahren, laufen könnte man sicher auch. Das Wasser ist klar, baden ging noch gut (23-25°C Wassertemperatur). Der Kontakt zur Vermieterin/Kontaktperson war außergewöhnlich gut. Sehr schnelle Reaktion, außerordentlich engagiert und unterstützend. Nancy (νανσυ) hat die Sache abgerundet und spricht sehr gut englisch. Man könnte dirchaus 8 Personen in der Schlafzimmern unterbringen. Dann wäre es ein bisschen enger im Innenbereich, aber am Pool wären auch 8 Liegen verfügbar. (Wir waren zu viert, dann ist es luxuriös.) Insgesamt also phantastisch, wir überlegen tatsächlich noch einmal wiederzukommen (untypisch für uns).

Nice villa with stunning view, garden and pool with roof
We were here for one week (three adults). The house is big and cosy, the view over the landscape and seaside is impressive.We were warmly welcomed by the owner of the house. Nancy had offered us to buy some groceries for us, since we arrived latley in the evening. She also provided us with fruit, wine and cake. The kitchen is large and very suitable for cooking. Only in the sofa corner in front of the TV, another sofa would have been nice to lie on (but there are two sofas available). There is also German TV and stable internet, even out to the pool (we are currently in another vacation home where the internet is rather unstable and notice the difference clearly). We especially liked the big garden, we were even allowed to harvest the fruit (lemons etc.). The pool is covered and heated, great thing! Only the table tennis table (nice that there is one!) could have a little more free space around to play. She also provided us with fruit, wine and cake.

Only the table tennis table (very cool that there is one!) could have a little more free space around to play. Unlike in some houses in Greece, the water pressure of the showers is very good and you get warm water quickly. In one of the bedrooms the lighting was a bit dim, but who needs that when you can spend the evening in the living room or on the terrace. The mosquito grids in the bedroom windows were very helpful - it would be nice to add some in the living room as well (but it's great that there are some at all). Outside on the terrace, the neighbors' cats are around from time to time. We really liked having breakfast under the Bouganville plant on the terrace; there are enough sunny and shady breakfast areas depending on ourmood. All in all, this is a house in which we felt very comfortable, and that definitely deserves the name "Villa"!
