About us
Welcome home!
Open since 2010, “PORTARI HOUSES” is a country villa and at the same time a guesthouse that offers a different vacation philosophy: “homey” hospitality in picturesque country houses that provide the quality services of a hotel, while at the same time warm, personal attention is ensured by the hosts. The villa – guesthouse stands out for its aesthetics, its unique design and its location in the Medieval settlement of Aroniadika – an ideal setting for a relaxed and private vacation.
The land where the Portari Houses are found extends over half an acre, complete with a barbeque pit, flowers, herbs and a vegetable garden. The villa – guesthouse is made up of three separate dwellings: Portari House I, a two storey house (110 sq.m., 4-6 persons), Portari House II (80 sq.m., 2-4 persons) and Portari House III (60 sq.m, 2-4 persons.) single level. The Cottage (60 sq.m., 2-4 persons), a restored traditional home located close to the Portari Houses, is also for rent.
The Portari Houses combine traditional architecture with eco-friendly bioclimatic functionality (thick stone walls, arches, dry stone walls, stone pathways), with modern, minimalist interior design and furniture from well known design houses such as VITRA, B&B Italia, Moooi etc.
Quality amenities and services, such as daily housekeeping, soft linen, anatomic mattresses, Korres cosmetics, fully equipped kitchens, NESPRESSO coffee machines, LCD TVs, Nova – Cable TV, Internet services, shaded verandas etc. are all part of the high quality service offered.
