A LUXURY SEAFRONT FAMILY VILLA
Welcome!
The Most Exclusive Beachfront Villa
in the Heart of the Athens Riviera
...awaits you...
Welcome to Villa Bella Vista, a rare jewel along the luminous shores of the Athens Riviera, nestled in the ultra-exclusive enclave of Kavouri. One of only a handful of waterfront residences in Greece with direct private beach access, and the only open for short term stays, Villa Bella Vista stands alone as the only estate of its kind available for high-end weekly rentals.
Framed by pine-clad hills and the azure expanse of the Aegean Sea, this is a place where timeless Mediterranean elegance meets five-star privacy and service.
A Magical Location of
Myth,Meaning, and
Unmatched Beauty
There are places where time slows down—not by accident, but by tradition. Villa Bella Vista sits gracefully on the sun-drenched shores of Kavouri, a pristine cove of the Athens Riviera that has, since antiquity, been cherished for its light, its waters, and its profound stillness. Here, just 30 minutes from Athens International Airport and 40 minutes from the Acropolis, you are at once connected to the heart of ancient civilization and completely removed from its pace.
This is not simply a prestigious address—it is a sacred landscape, once known to the ancients as Cape Zoster. Myth tells us that Leto, pregnant with the divine twins Apollo and Artemis, fled Hera’s wrath and paused on this very cape to loosen her golden girdle—zoster—an act that gave the headland its name and its story. The remains of the Temple of Apollo Zoster, built in the 6th century BC, still rest quietly on the coast nearby, where sun-bleached stone meets the whispering sea.
Kavouri:
A Peninsula of Privilege
Today, the area known as Kavouri—meaning “crab” in Greek, for the peninsula’s distinctive shape—is among the most coveted on the Athenian coast. Long favored by philosophers, poets, and statesmen, it remains one of the last true enclaves of seaside privacy. The estate enjoys a prime position between two icons of global luxury: the Four Seasons Astir Palace and the One&Only Aesthesis, both just minutes away. And yet, Villa Bella Vista offers something rarer still: absolute exclusivity.
Within a few minutes, guests may arrive via private transfer from the Athens International Airport, touch down at the Astir heliport, or anchor at one of several nearby marinas, including the elite Astir Marina, favored by superyachts. From this tranquil base, guests can explore the city’s ancient marvels, return for an afternoon swim in their private cove, and dine beneath starlit pines—all within the same day.
Where Sea and Story Intertwine
To stand at Villa Bella Vista is to inhabit a coastline where history, mythology, and nature converge in perfect harmony. The air carries the scent of wild thyme and sea salt. The water remains crystal-clear, just as it was when the ancients bathed in it under the watchful eye of Apollo. Evenings unfold with theatrical sunsets over the Saronic Gulf, and nights hum softly under the constellation-filled sky.
This is not merely a luxurious location—it is a deeply poetic one. Villa Bella Vista offers its guests a rare gift: the feeling of being exactly where they are meant to be, surrounded by nature, beauty, and meaning.
A Setting for Celebration,
Vision, and Stillness
While Villa Bella Vista is a sanctuary for leisure and escape, it is also a space where extraordinary moments can take shape—whether intimate, strategic, or celebratory. With its gracious layout, seamless indoor-outdoor flow, and breathtaking coastal backdrop, the estate is uniquely suited to host a variety of elevated experiences.
From micro-weddings bathed in golden Aegean light to executive off-sites that inspire fresh vision, the villa is adaptable yet never impersonal. A private beachfront ceremony beneath the pines. An alfresco board meeting at dawn with the sea shimmering in the background. A film or fashion shoot harnessing the purity of Mediterranean light. Or simply, a week of quiet restoration for a creative team, cocooned in beauty and discretion.
Curated Spaces,
Private Moments
With expansive outdoor terraces, a shaded pool deck, elegant entertaining spaces, and five serene ensuite bedrooms, Villa Bella Vista offers the perfect canvas for:
-
Corporate retreats and C-level strategy sessions
-
Private board meetings in a distraction-free coastal setting
-
Film, TV, and fashion productions seeking natural beauty and architectural elegance

-

Between Icons,
Yet Entirely Its Own
Set between the legendary Four Seasons Astir Palace and the newly opened One&Only Aesthesis—placing it at the very epicenter of discreet luxury on the Athens Riviera. Within minutes, you can dine at Michelin-starred restaurants, unwind at world-class spas, or moor a yacht in one of several nearby marinas.

Villa Bella Vista has also another surprise, its bigger sister in
Sintra, Portugal:
A PRIVATE FAMILY ESTATE
Welcome to the former estate of
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and his son Adrian.
The historic Quinta da Bella Vista, located in the UNESCO World Heritage village of Sintra, just 30 minutes from Lisbon, was formerly the property of the famous British writer and father of “Sherlock Holmes,” Sir Arthur Ignatius Conan Doyle (22 May 1859 – 7 July 1930), who lived with his family starting in 1890. Annette, the sister of Sir Arthur and his youngest son, Adrian, were almost permanent residents here in the early 1950's. Local legend has it that “The Hounds of Baskerville” were in fact inspired during Sir Arthur’s stay in Quinta da Bella Vista.
Adrian was a real playboy and a reputed hunter, and he continued authoring some Sherlock Holmes books at Quinta da Bella Vista, after his father's death. He was also a painter and was often seen painting at the tower of the Palacio, which served as his studio because of the abundance of light from all directions.
Quinta da Bella Vista was a regular gathering spot for celebrities of the time such as Sir Francis Cook, the First Viscount of Monserrate (and former owner of Palacio Monserrate and of Quinta da Bella Vista), the South African poet Roy Campbell, the American actress Gloria Swanson, and Pierre Schlumberger, a French oil tycoon and heir to one of the world's greatest fortunes. Today, this tradition continues.
