| "This property is not your standard holiday let, as it is also the normal family home to a family of 3 who move out when you move in. The house sits in an elevated position overlooking the sea and is only a short drive from a lovely beach. The property itself leaves little to be desired and is very well equipped.
We were a party of 7 (4 adults and 3 children) and we never felt as though we were under each others feet. The sleeping arrangements for 5 people are excellent and a further 2 children can be comfortably accommodated in the loft room.
Stavros and Rosa were very attentive, but at the same time, they left us alone to enjoy the holiday we wanted to have.
This is a property that requires you to have a car in order to make the most of the surrounding area and best suits a family or party of friends that wants to get away from the hustle and bustle of a town / city based holiday.
We all enjoyed our stay in Schinias and whilst it is unlikely we would stay there again ourselves, as we now wish to see more of Greece, we would have no hesitation in recommending the property to friends. In summary, book with confidence!"

"We booked the entire villa for our family of 6 for 7 nights. We realized after our first day that 7 nights was not nearly enough to see all of the wonderful sights in proximity to the villa. The villa was lovely and comfortable. We had 4 teenagers and 2 adults and even the hard to please teenagers were happy with the accommodations. The living area and master bedroom had fantastic views of the sea and the expansive windows brought a pleasant breeze into the rooms. We did not choose the bed and breakfast option, but our hosts, Rosa and Stavros, could not have been more helpful or gracious. Rosa made sure that all of our questions were answered and needs were met. She advised us on
tours, restaurants, beaches and everything else we wanted to see, including making hotel arrangements for us in Athens. We had the best
times on the tours that were personally led by Stavros. Our tour to Corinth and the Peloponnese was great, punctuated by an exciting bungee jump that the teenagers loved (but maybe Stavros loved more!). Try to see Epidaurus at the end of the day just before closing for an almost private experience within the theater. We also did an all day tour to Delphi and the Parnassos mountain area, stopping for a distinctive and authentically prepared lunch along the way. Our tour concluded with a visit to the beautiful village of Arachova in Parnassos
where we found great pasta, great cheeses and great views! There were many highlights to the trip, but the most memorable may have been the
tour that Stavros, Rosa and Danae, their daughter all accompanied us on the the island of Evia. We hiked from the top of a chilly, windy and foggy remote mountaintop surrounded by goats and goatherds down a lushly vegetated gorge, splashing in cold swimming areas along the way. The hike culminated in a late lunch prepared especially for us at a local taverna overlooking the spectacular gorge scenery. The food was delicious, but the company of Rosa, Stavros and Danae was just as memorable. I can truly say that our vacation to Greece was made the most successful by the opportunities offered by Rosa and Stavros.
The kids and the adults will never forget it.

| "What can i say...this review isnt just about the property..its about the people who own it and what you get with it.
Me and my 6 friends stayed in the villa...all male..which to some people would probably cause a problem. Not to Rosa and Stavros...
Once you have booked the villa Rosa will keep in constant contact with you...even though she has a busy lifestyle to keep..she really cares about your stay. Any needs you have...Rosa and Stavros will try and meet them...
The villa is their home..and when you get there you realise that it is more than just a retreat..it is cared for...a place to relax...plan where you want to go next...and Stavros is always on hand to take you there.
I honestly cannot say enough about this family run villa...If you read all the other reviews about this family you will know about their daughter Danae..she is the most loveable little girl you will ever want to meet..this really is the perfect retreat with whatever you want from a holiday."

| "If you want an experience in Greece that you will never forget, this is the way to do it. We are a group of 6 women who found ourselves feeling totally secure under the expert care of Stavros and Rosa. From the moment Stavros met us at the airport and took care of completing our transaction with a rather unprofessional car rental agent, we felt we were in safe hands. We booked Stavros for 2 tours and transportation to Piraeus to board a cruise to the Saronic Islands. His knowledge, patience and kindness were amazing. We were able to experience Greece in a way that most tourists never see. His guidance on wines, tavernas, beaches, foods to try, the outdoor cinema in Marathon Beach (I could go on and on) could not have been better. The villa itself was great, the view intoxicating. The only surprise was that only the bedrooms were air conditioned, but large windows on three sides of the main living space allowed good cross ventilation and there was always plenty of wind. Rosa and Stavros - you are great at what you do! Thank you from all of us.

""A Dream Come True"
"Before we even were greeted at the airport to the moment we left Greece we felt we were visiting relatives. Our host and hostess couldn't have been more welcoming and knowledgeable. It is difficult to write a review of somewhere and someone that makes you feel so at home the moment you arrive.
The accommodations were exactly as the pictures showed and description portrayed. The house is spacious and family oriented and felt like home immediately. The kitchen, dining room, and bedrooms were plenty big enough for 4 adults, 2 children (8 & 12) and two toddlers. Amenities such as cable tv, cell phone, internet access, washer and dishwasher made traveling a breeze. The two bathrooms are sufficient for a houseful of people and the children delighted in taking baths in the large tub.
We took late afternoon and evening "nature" walks marveling at the view, the geology and the wildflowers.
This site is perfect for those wanting quiet yet beautiful surroundings.
Not far from local taverns, towns, sea, ferry's, markets, produce stands,
and Athens; this oasis is the perfect place to call "base". Our hosts
were at our beck and call to answer our questions and share their
knowledge as we traveled into Athens, Marathonas, and ferried to the
islands with our rental car.
This is a trip that we will remember for a lifetime. (And plan to make
again!) The pictures we brought back can never convey the warmth and sense of family we have for our Greek family. Stavros gave us a "custom" guided tour thru Athens. As we were traveling with small children, he customized the tour to meet our needs and our children will never forget the history he shared with us in just the right amount of time. (We all delighted in trying to read and speak Greek with friendly assistance of the locals.)
When we returned, my children, delighted in sharing their travels with
their schoolmates. My 8 y/o sons teacher said that the class was
interested and asking questions even after 40 minutes of stories and
picture showing. I was amazed at how much information he remembered from our tour with Stavros!
When we talk about our trip to Greece we always start with a smile and
warm thoughts of our friends/family who made us feel so welcome. If you choose this lovely home, be sure to take the advice of the owners and visit each and every site and restaurant they recommend. You will not be disappointed.

"We have recently returned from a week of Bed and Breakfast and touring with Stavros and Rosa and their darling daughter Danae. We were traveling with our daughter and booked for 4 days but stayed
6. We thought that we would take 2 tours but we couldn't resist going on 4, plus a cruise on the day when Stavros was otherwise committed.
We will never forget the warm hospitality and friendship we enjoyed during our stay in their beautiful home. Our exposure to Greek cuisine, history, archeology, language, customs, as well as our hosts incredible time management skills was remarkable.Our hosts helped us plan the rest of our time in their beautiful country. We learned a great deal about Greece from Stavros and Rosa and when we reluctantly left to explore on our own we felt equipped to cope with the challenge.
I would recommend this Bed and Breakfast or Vacation Rental to any tourist who wants an experience of a lifetime. We have made new friends who are now a part of our extended family.
Many thanks Rosa and Stavros for making our 50th Anniversary trip so memorable.

Fabulous view. 5 minutes to the beach, grocery shopping, food. We had Stavros give us a tour of Athens. Wow...he covered it all. Learned so much from him. Went back into Athens on our own using our GPS. Super easy to find your way from the house. About 45 min. drive to either Athens or the airport. Highly recommend a stay here. Many items stocked on your arrival so the stop at the store is not necessary for a day or so. Very warm and welcoming!"

"I have just returned from a 2 week trip to Greece
with my parents, who were celebrating their 50th
wedding anniversary. Our first week was spent in
the company of our new friends and B&B hosts,
Rosa, Stavros and their delightful daughter, Danae.
Within moments we felt completely at home with
this wonderful family and quickly learned that we
had lucked upon the best possible hosts
imaginable.
As many others have stated before, our trip to
Greece would not have been the same without
them. They made us feel totally at home, provided
wonderful meals and a place to relax at the end of a
busy day, and offered the most unique tours to
various historic sites in the area.
While Greece captivated me with its colour, ancient
history, architecture, and food, I must say that I
was most impacted by the PEOPLE I metl. Rosa,
Stavros and Danae MADE this trip for me. I will
never forget them.

| "What can I say that hasn't been said in previous reviews?! The reason we chose this property was because of all the terrific reviews...and we were not disappointed! Rosa, Stavros and Danae were excellent hosts and extremely helpful. We followed their recommendations on where to eat (not a single mediocre meal), where to shop, what to see and what the kids would enjoy. I highly recommend Stavros as your guide if you choose to do anything beyond sitting on the lovely patio sipping nice Nemea wine! The house was the perfect set-up for our family of 4: parents in the master, one girl in the twin and one in the loft in the second bedroom. There was plenty to do in the area; we never had a dull moment. Nea Makri is a lovely little beach town with yummy gyro/souvlaki cafes. We grilled out on the terrace one night; try the local sausages and pork burgers! Costa's taverna down the hill has great grilled meats and tzatziki (try this everywhere!). Honestly, not a negative thing to say about the house, hosts or area! We will definitely be going back for the trek on Evia...Efaristo Stavros and Rosa, Happy Birthday Danae!

"What a perfect way to visit Greece!
For the first few days there were only the two of us, so we stayed "Bed and Breakfast" with Rosa, Stavros, and Danae. It was a wonderful way to overcome jet lag and meet our first friends in Greece!
We returned at Christmas with our daughter and a group of friends and what a welcome we received from this wonderful family!
Stavros was the consummate tour guide for several trips into Athens and the countryside with its incredible historic sites and scenery. He knows all the secrets of where to go and how to get there! His knowledge of history and geography made the places we visited come alive.
Rosa helped us with shopping, receiving important mail from home, and in attention to a hundred little details that made our trip memorable. Her breakfasts are worth a 15 hour airplane ride all by themselves! Have her take you to her friend's pottery store and gallery.
Danae became our delightful young friend and we did so much enjoy her company.
This vacation could easily have become a nightmare of logistical details, but Rosa and Stavros made it all so easy--meeting us at the airport, helping with the rental cars, guiding our travels, finding the best restaurants and tavernas for our special culinary interests, and so, so much more. No request was too difficult to seek a solution.
In Greece, we never felt like tourists. Yes, of course we were tourists, but with Rosa, Stavros, and Danae we were guests and friends! I cannot imagine a better way to make a first trip to Greece, and I predict that anyone who does it once will want to come back again. We certainly plan to do so!
Happy New Year,

"Rosa and Stavros took care of every little detail of our stay in Greece. They are a delightful couple and definitely made us feel like we had been friends of theirs forever. Stavros was our guide on several day trips and we would strongly recommend that you use him because of his knowledge of the area and its history. Without him, we would not have seen nearly as much of the country and its culture. Rosa kept us supplied with fresh fruit and delightful Greek desserts and we greatly enjoyed her hospitality. We strongly recommend a stay with Rosa and Stavros in Greece.

"Going to Greece was the fulfillment of a long-held dream. I cannot think of a better introduction to the country, its people and its culture than that we experienced through Rosa’s and Stavros’ warm hospitality and friendly guidance. Our stay at Aeolos was very comfortable, the views from the terrace were incredible, and the breakfasts were memorable. We ventured on three tours and were rewarded with exhilarating adventure, visits to the glorious antiquities of ancient Greece, and many indulgences in traditional Greek food and custom.
Not only will I recommend all this to anyone planning a vacation in Greece, I sincerely hope that I will return one day to this wonderful villa overlooking the Aegean.

"October 29, 2007
Sometimes dreams come true, not often, but sometimes
and our dream trip to Greece did indeed come true
because of 3 very special “Dream Weavers”, Stavros, Rosa and Danai.
No vacation has ever meant so much to Love and me as this last one. The villa, the scenery, the people and the food .... all directly from the Realm of the Gods. If ever there was an earthly domain to rival the greatness of the dwelling place of the gods this is surely it.
To future mortals seeking the most perfect place on Earth seek no further. You will find it at
only one place .... Schinias. Allow your life to be touched by the greatness of the gods them selves:
Stavros: God of Travel and Adventure.
Rosa: the beautiful wife of the mighty Stavros and Goddess of Domestic Peace, Tranquility and Dream Making Come True
and
finally the daughter, Danai, goddess of youth , femininity and the Promise of a Bright Future.
Love and I will forever be in your debt for making our Voyage into Perfection a reality. Thank you.

"We thoroughly enjoyed a wonderful week at Stavros & Rosa's Aeolos Villa. It is as idylic a spot as one can imagine. Both Stavros and Rosa couldn't do enough to help us enjoy our first visit to Greece. In return, as English visitors, we brought the first rain for 6 months. I would thoroughly recommend this villa and, in particular, Starvos' guided tours for anyone wishing to see a glimpse of the true Greece.

"Stavros and Rosa,
Thank you so much for making our trip to Greece the best family vacation we have ever taken. Rosa was so patient and gracious in helping to set up our itinerary. 20 hours of travel can be grueling, especially with an 84 year old mom, but having Stavros greet us at the airport with a big smile turned everything around. Your family was a gift to us. Stavros' patience and care of mom on all our excursions made us feel as if we were traveling with family, rather than being tourists. His positive outlook on life, and calm demeanor helped soothe any of the ruffles that come with traveling. We feel blessed that we had the opportunity to meet such wonderful people. We'll be back...perhaps for Katrina's wedding.

"If your objective is to see Greece as a tourist, book the next crowded cruise or bus tour. But if your objective is to "experience" Greece and all of its beauty, culture, and cuisine, then spend a week or more with Stavros and Rosa. This is the highest compliment that I can give someone who opens up their home and their heart to people to give them a true glipse into Greece as the Greeks see it. To people who were not only our hosts but are now our friends, thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!!!

"I am not sure how or where to begin this review. IT is almost overwhelming to think about what a wonderful experience we had. We did so much, yet at the same time were so relaxed. First of all, I can't say enough praises for Rosa and Stavros. They will truthfully, honestly do what ever it takes to make your stay in Greece enjoyeable. Second, their home and view is absolutely as close to paradise as you can get. The sweaping panaramic views of the Agean Sea, and the hills, and the Beach, and the crescent bay, and the blue sky is what I would have only expected in the Caribean or the Greek Islands, but here it is on the mainland, with easy access to all the glorious sites of Athens and Attika. A tip from us, go by ferry (which is very close)to the Island across the water to Nea Styra. IT was an unexpected surprise for us, and truly a highlight of our trip there. It has some nice beaches and restaurants and shops. the Ferry ride over was fun for the whole family. With kind regards,

"We had a wonderful time in Greece, partly due to our decision to rent Stavros Rosa's villa. Stavros and Rosa are obviously very proud of their villa and right so. The villa was beautiful, well maintained and situated with fantastic views. I really don't see how we could have done better. It housed our large part of 5 adults and 2 children with ease and comfort.
Both Stavros and Rosa did everything possible to make our stay comfortable and were very helpful with suggestions of where to go and what to see.
Thanks for a wonderful holiday.

"Greece is a country filled with magnificent historical sites almost obliterated by a vast sea of loud, pushy tourists becoming impatient and irritable in interminable lines. Stavros Barbicas is a superb guide who can show you the glories of ancient Greece minus the hordes of grumpy tourists. Stavros, often accompanied by his wife Rosa, offers a glimpse into the wonders of ancient Greece without the stress and distraction of crowds.
He is an expert at finding the hidden treasures of Greece, made all the more magical because of the utter absence of crowds. Stavros took our party of four on a trek to Evvia where we hiked down a magnificent gorge on a trail carved out of the mountains in 1230 AD. At the bottom of the five-mile hike, we swam at a deserted beach and then feasted at a tiny taverna where visitors have to call the day before to order their meals. Everything we ate was grown and made on site from the homemade yogurt to the wondrous breads.
Stavros told us of another site, Ramnous, near Athens where our party were the only visitors and we could almost hear the ancients whispering words of wisdom to us. We swam at lovely beaches and ate at beachside tavernas where we were the only non-Greeks. Stavros has an MBA from an English university and gave up a career in international wine marketing to spend more time in Greece with his wife and daughter. It was the right choice for him and for those fortunate of us to enough have him as a guide to Greece. We started out as clients of Stavros and finished as friends. If you are going to Greece, use Stavros as your guide for an unforgettable experience.

We saw the important sites of Athens, hiked on Evvia and explored caves, ruins, and various interesting archeological sites of Attica in a relaxed and well-paced way over several days. A great way to see the area.

"Our vacation to Greece was wonderful due to Rosa and Stavros! We found them through **** and started to correspond about dates, etc. I could tell through Rosa’s correspondences that we had made the right choice to stay at their Bed and Breakfast. Schinias is a beautiful area and the house has an awesome view. They are fantastic Host and Hostess! Rosa made a special breakfast every day (Greek touches) and many other special surprises. Stavros is extremely knowledgeable in the local history and natural areas. He is an excellent tour guide. They provided travel information and directions to local and regional points of interest. We do not speak Greek so their ability to translate assisted us in making reservations, car rental, etc. We visited several countries during our vacation, and the highlight of our trip was when we visited Greece. Thanks to Stavros and Rosa our experience in Greece will always be remembered and cherished!!!!!!!

"Dear Rosa and Stavros, Thank you both so much for the warm welcome, wonderful breakfasts, daily support and helpful travel hints we received each day we were with you, but most of all thank you for your caring and your friendship. Staying with you all really introduced us to the Greek way of life and after all, it really is the people which make Greece such a fabulous place to visit. Your home became our home and we soon forgot any of the anxieties we may have had about our trip to your wonderful country.(especially around the driving!!) The view from our room was breathtaking each morning and we are still trying to find yogurt that even slightly resembles the rich creamy yogurt we were served every morning! We have marvelous photos to remind us of our time in Greece but the best memories are the ones we hold in our hearts and your are all truly there. Thank you again so much.

"Rosa, Stavros, and their delightful daughter, Danae, are superb hosts! Their home is modern, while at the same time warm and inviting. Not only do they have a lovely home, they are incredibly friendly and welcoming. The three of them collectively made our family trip so memorable. We could not have enjoyed Greece nearly as well without their kindness and hospitality! Stavros or Rosa can meet you at the airport and transport you to their home, even stopping on the way to help you purchase warm bread to go with the food that they have stocked at your prior request. Stavros can lead you around Greece on any tours you personally select. He and Rosa can introduce you to the local tavernas and shops so you can savor Greek cuisine as the local residents do. Your trip to Greece will be so fantastic because of this amazing family!

"What can I say about you and your lovely villa? No keys on this keyboard can describe the magic I felt in your home or meeting you all. Rosa, I will never forget you, your daughter, or your husband, Stavros. I can still call up in my memory the beautiful view from the large windows that cover the house, or sitting at your table, drinking a wonderful wine, eating that fantastic dessert you prepared, or the chats we had over coffee. What a warm feeling I had there at Aeolos Villa...just like home. Your hospitality was above and beyond my expectations..all the special touches did not go unnoticed! The romance of that view !! and Greece was represented well by you...the combination screams at my heart...My heart is full now and this trip to your lovely villa will affect me for a life time...and I want you to know that I will be back one day because I could not imagine going down this highway called life and not experiencing Aeolos Villa again...but most of all, experiencing you and your family..that was the true gift of this whole visit to Greece...ahhhhhhh, the view.. I can still see those sparkling waters from your balcony !! Every morning it took my breath away...Thank you so much for everything, and for a friendship that I will treasure all my life. Love you all !!! Efharisto!! BRAVO...Meredith
p.s. I still think you don't charge enough!!! This type of treatment,food, and services commands all the gold a horse can carry, and a bushel of the finest jewels...and when it is done, thank you just does not seem enough to reward the feeling I have inside and I feel lost for words in describing the trip of a lifetime...but I shall leave you again with thank you!!! Efharisto!!

Stavros, your knowledge of Greece and your incredible driving skills helped us to see and do more than we would have ever done on our own. You and your family are full of life and love. Your house is wonderful, all new and clean. Our favorite part was enjoying appetizers and drinks on your balcony our last evening in Greece. It was a lifetime memory. That sunset is beautiful from your balcony overlooking the Aegean Sea. We would highly recommend your services and your home to anyone traveling to your area and looking for more than the average vacation. Hopefully we can extend our hospitality to each of you if you ever come to visit Texas. Blessings to all of you! Grace & Phil"
