A Location Unlike Anywhere Else

Our village is one of Greece's hidden gems. It sits on a famous ancient village dating back some 3,000 years, with Venetian, Moorish and Roman artefacts.

You're surrounded by quiet beaches, rugged coastline, traditional tavernas, and welcoming locals, yet everything you need is just a short walk away—including bakeries, supermarkets, cafés, pharmacies and local shops.

Just 10 minutes away is the vibrant seaside resort of Raches, famous for its relaxed beach bars, waterfront tavernas, cafés, live music, and family-friendly nightlife where children can safely enjoy warm Greek evenings.

The area is a paradise for outdoor lovers:

Swim in clear Aegean waters
Explore hidden coves and empty beaches
Go sailing, diving or kite surfing
Visit the beautiful villages and monasteries of Mount Pelion
Take a ferry to Skiathos
Enjoy day trips to Delphi or Meteora
Visit the award-winning vineyard just five minutes away for tastings and experiences

You can mix adventure, real Greece, and complete relaxation; everything is within easy reach.

Space to Relax Together

Set within approximately one acre with private gardens, the villa offers exceptional privacy and space for everyone.

5 bedrooms sleeping up to 9 guests
Optional sixth sleeping area for 2 additional children (11 guests total)
3 luxury rain-shower bathrooms
Large farmhouse kitchen
Spacious dining room
Expansive living room with multiple seating areas
Large terraces overlooking the gardens
Private swimming pool with BBQ area
Secure gated grounds that are perfect for families with children

One of the villa's most unique features is the spectacular pool setting, where you can swim among beautifully preserved stone walls dating back over 1,600 years—an unforgettable backdrop.

Fruit trees, shaded gardens, lawns, peaceful terraces and complete privacy create a setting you may not want to leave.

Easy to Reach

Despite feeling wonderfully undiscovered, we're incredibly accessible as it's a simple door-to-door motorway drive from every airport.

Around 2 hours from Athens
Around 3 hours from Thessaloniki
Just 30 minutes from Volos Airport, with seasonal direct flights from Düsseldorf, Brussels, Katowice and Brno

Why Guests Keep Returning
Our guests consistently tell us the same thing:

It's the combination of the villa, the location, the authentic Greek atmosphere, and the personal service that makes this a truly special place.

This isn't simply a luxury villa.

It's the Greece that many visitors never get to experience.

Watch our video tour in the photo gallery, explore the villa for yourself, and if you have any questions, simply send us a message. We'd love to help you plan an unforgettable Greek escape.

We had the most amazing time in Achinos at Michael’s villa. The pictures don’t even come close to showing how beautiful it really is! Michael was always around to help with any questions and had so many great recommendations. He and his wife are such wonderful hosts. The villa is gorgeous, and the village has everything you need — a supermarket and some lovely restaurants all within walking distance. My nephew even learned to kite surf at a nearby camp, which was such a highlight! The beaches are stunning and everyone we met was so kind and welcoming.Thank you, Michael, for an unforgettable week in your beautiful villa. You and your wife are such lovely people, and we can’t wait to come back one day!

The property is in a village with a small supermarket, bar, coffee shop and restaurant. However, I would recommend you have a car to access a greater variety of amenities and the beach. There were very few international tourists, although the the area is popular with Greeks. If you expect a tourist hot spot such on many of the the Greek Islands you will be disappointed. Most restaurants did have English menus but not all so you may need to use Google translate - if you don't speak Greek of course.We found the locals and business owners to be really friendly, welcoming and helpful. The property is well appointed with large open plan living spaces. The bathrooms are all modern. There are 3 good sized double bedrooms. The single room and the twin bedrooms are quite small. We were a family group of 9 adults and the sleeping arrangements worked fine for us. Michael is a great host. The communication with him was detailed and timely. He organised wine tasting, boat rental and restaurant bookings.

A wonderful property nestled away in a delightful village. Michael (the host) couldn’t have been more attentive. Always on hand to help and advise if needed and would always greet you with a smile! The lovely pool was a godsend in 40 degree heat and kept the kids and adults well entertained. Raches is the nearest town and offered lots of lovely places to Eat and drink, plus some gorgeous beaches to enjoy. Thank you very much!

We spent a wonderfully relaxing week with our extended family ages 7 months to 63 at Michael & Dimitria's beautiful and expansive home. The house was filled with comfortable spaces to lounge and congregate for meals, drinks and fun times in the pool. We enjoyed our short morning strolls to the local bakery, dinners at the local taverna accompanied by live bazouki music and short drives to the nearby beaches. We had a fun day on a sailboat arranged by Michael and also spent a day seeing the sights in Meteora. In between all this activity we lounged around and in the refreshing pool. The house was very clean and orderly. We especially enjoyed cooking for our crowd in the large well equipped kitchen. Michael & Dimitria were excellent hosts. If you're looking for a quiet Greek village without tourists but with a warm and friendly vibe, we recommend lovely Achinos.
