Fitness-friendly vacation rentals in Plaka, Athens

marina's place was amazing the apartment was clean and comfortable the area is amazing next to the shopping streets marina was very nice and helpful i definitely recommend

I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! The place was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and very well-equipped. The location was perfect, close to everything I needed, and in a quiet, safe neighborhood. The host was incredibly friendly, responsive, and made sure I had everything for a comfortable stay. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Everything about the apartment and contact with Jenny, the manager, was perfect. The apartment was new, we were one of the first guests and therefore nothing was worn or used. The topper of the bed was a little too hard for me and I got an extra topper the very next day. Every two days a cleaner came and changed the linens and towels. I didn't expect that in advance. That was very pleasant. The roof terrace was overwhelmingly large, you can see the sea and the hot tub was perfect for us and our 2.5 year old daughter. The nearby large playground was also very pleasant for us. There is a long shopping street in the surrounding area, with Lidl at one end and a huge supermarket at the other end. Only 200 m away is a very good souvlaki/kalamaki/gyros restaurant and at the lower end of the shopping street is a restaurant that is only open during the day and sells all Greek classics.

The view alone made this. It was amazing to wake up and go to sleep looking at the Parthenon from your balcony. The penthouse was beautiful. Lots of space, you can spend time with your group or go to the separate floors and have your privacy as well. As I read in a previous review, it didn’t have a few things you usually get in an Airbnb to get you started, like coffee pods, a few detergent pods for the washer, things like that, but those are minor. Would 100% recommend this place to anyone that is heading to Athens and wants to be out of the main core. Bus and subway stops aren’t too far to get you where you need to go.

The hostess is a super nice person who knows the area well & proactively suggests things that are currently happening in the city (e.g. concerts, etc.) The apartment is 4 subway stops away from the city center and is almost directly next to the subway station. There are some good restaurants nearby, which the hostess suggests. The suggestions were perfect for our 4-day stay! Especially because local was not tourist food. The terrace is clean and well-maintained, but the apartment is located on a main road and is therefore very noisy. But that's to be expected when you go on vacation in a big city. The apartment itself is well cut, equipped with 2 air conditioners and a good, though quite small, bathroom.

The place was immaculate. Mr. Thanos and Mrs. Katerina were very helpful. The house was very beautiful and cozy and the area was very quiet and safe. I'm sure we'll go for it again.

Konstantinos is a fantastics host and his place is extremely cosy, well located in a nice, buzzy, safe area in the centre of Athens. The place feels very homely, it has all needed amenities and is located in a great area. There are so many shops, cafes, restaurants, literally just outside the building. It's located in walking distance from Athens' historical centre. The place has three working stations and great internet speed, making it ideal for people working remotely. Konstantinos was such a good host, always super communicative, thoughtful and accommodating. I would 100% recommend this place and Konstantinos as a host.

The room is exactly the same as in pictures. I like the rooftop view. The bunk bed is fun and big. The location is okay, within 5-10 mins driving distance to Acropolis.

Fotini's place is wonderful, perfect and cosy place as if we lived in our own flat. This place is located in walkable distance to major areas. Wee enjoyed a lot!

Excellent apartment in a very upscale neighborhood but still walkable to all the touristy spots. Athina was excellent, very responsive and was very accommodating when our flight got delayed by a few hours. The apartment itself is HUGE with amazing furnishings and every amenity that you would need. A Carrefour is right across from the main door which helped a lot in getting the basics. Getting to and from the airport was seamless via a cab, but the Metro stop (Syntagma) is about an 8-10 min walk, if needed. We had an amazing stay and would without a doubt stay here again. Highly recommend!

I stayed at Athena with my partner and wow it was so cute!! The perfect place to stay! The host was beyond helpful and helped us check in and was there to show us around the accommodation and check if there was anything missing that we may need. He gave some nice recommendations for local places as we hadn’t visited before. The place was spotless and clean and overall just a beautiful design inside! I loved the fact there was even a mini gym downstairs! The only downside to this great place was the fact there was a school opposite so there were multiple bells that rang throughout the day and the kids could be quite noisy. If you plan to be out exploring during the day this would not be an issue We throughly enjoyed this place and our stay and would definitely recommend : )

I had a truly lovely stay at Daphne’s home. The house is extremely comfortable—every detail has been thoughtfully considered, and the furnishings reflect a refined, aesthetic sensibility. The bedroom was wonderfully quiet, and I slept very well. I especially enjoyed the little patio, full of plants and flowers—a perfect spot for a peaceful morning coffee. The location, in the Kypseli neighbourhood, was ideal. It’s a lively and characterful area with plenty of local shops, cafés, restaurants, and street artists. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. Just across the road there’s a brilliant greengrocer selling fresh fruit, vegetables, nuts and grains. There’s also a large, leafy park within easy walking distance—perfect for a morning run or a gentle stroll surrounded by greenery. The area is also well-connected. There’s a direct bus to Syntagma, the Acropolis, and other central sights. The metro is about a 20-minute walk away, and links you to the whole of Athens, including the airport.

great place the jacuzzi Is a bit tricky to operate

Anna is a wonderful host and the flat is just fabulous --- incredibly well equipped. Anna also left fruit, coffee, home made jam, biscuits, wine! The flat is spacious and stylish and very clean with two lovely balconies. I love this neighbourhood too, easy to reach the metro (on the line that takes you to airport/ piraeus) and right next to Lycabettus Hill, which has the most beautiful views of the city. A really perfect spot!

Very cool and very nice place

An amazing stay! The host made us feel so welcomed and so at home. The sweetest people ever. The place was beautiful and had modern and up to date technology. One of the nicest places we have stayed in. It was only a 10 minute walk to the metro and the host offered to drive us to the metro for free. If we return to Athens, we will definitely be staying here again! 10/10 experience.

The home was very beautiful and clean just like in the photos. Its location is very convenient as it is located in a quiet area, very close to the electric. Mr. Dimitris was very kind and helpful throughout our stay, explained the amenities of the house in detail. I highly recommend him!

The villa was absolutely beautiful and my family and I had an incredible time staying over. We especially enjoyed how clean and nice the pool provided was. We highly recommend this location to anyone looking to stay in Greece.

What can I say the apartment was lovely and George our host was amazing! Our first night we were sent dinner and some Beers! A lovely welcome. Given the time of year, George kindly dressed the apartment for the Christmas festivities, which was well received by the whole family. In terms of accessibility you can’t beat it. Five minutes to the metro station which is a super efficient way to travel around Athens. We would recommend staying here to anyone you won’t be disappointed! Thanks George and Happy New Year!!

The place was as in the photos without any unpleasant surprises. Also, the communication with Mrs. Gianna was excellent, making our stay pleasant!

I would have preferred to stay there longer! This stay and especially this Airbnb paid off every second! The hospitality of the people on site but also the entrepreneurial opportunities were more than special. I recommend renting a scooter or car and exploring the island! The capital Athens was also very easy and inexpensive to reach. A ferry ride on which you can simply enjoy the surroundings and a ride through the streets of Athens by bus and you are, for example, at the Acrapolis, Monastiraki. Would go back there next time and explore even more. Thanks for everything!!

We had an amazing stay in Athens! We had a little trouble getting into the apartment and they came immediately to help us get in! Very responsive anytime we had a question or minor issue! They made this stay so incredible! The place was stunning and we truly wish we had more time here in Athens! They helped with local recommendations and were truly exceptional hosts! Will recommend again and again!

Very quiet room, would stay here again

The apartment was close to the airport which was great for our early morning flight. The hosts were there to meet us and provide recommendations for dinner. We took the local bus to the beach in the afternoon and had excellent Souvlaki at the restaurant down the road from the apartment for dinner. Would recommend this apartment, if you need to be close to the airport to accommodate flight schedules.
