Korinthia, Greece

Melissi by the sea
Welcome to Melissi
- a children-friendly housing compound for relaxing summer holidays
- an ideal starting point for trips to discover modern and ancient Greece

This lovely maisonette is situated in the village of Melissi, which is on the northern coast of Peloponnese. The small but exclusive beach with the deep blue waters right in front of it is on the Gulf of Korinthos, a stretch of water separating the region of Peloponnese from mainland Greece.
Melissi is an hour and a quarter away from the Athens International Airport. It is also easily accessible from Athens by coach (bus stop only 3 min. away), and by commuter train (Proastiakos, 1,5 hour from Athens)
Just south of Melissi, and separated from it by a lemon forest, looms the mountain of Ziria (2.374 m.), which boast old villages with stone-built houses, lakes with names evocative of Greek Mythology, and caves. Thanks to this tall mountain, there is a fresh breeze in Melissi which invariable cools-off the nights, even after the hottest summer days.
