There is no other area in Greece with such a concentration of wealth. It is easy to understand why in-the-know discerning globetrotters head to Porto Heli. It feels like a very laid-back version of the Amalfi Coast. The area is absolutely stunning, rich in interesting archaeological sites such as Halieis and there is a wonderful nightlife. Porto Heli’s coastline of inlets is calm and warm. You will see luxury yachts everywhere, together with the traditional wooden kaikis. Although incredibly rich, Porto Heli maintains a rustic, homely feeling, such a wonderful blend to ensure a memorable holiday, especially when you consider that this is also a foodie paradise.  The tourist-friendly island of Spetses is a 15-minute ride away from Costa harbour. Spetses’ tiny port of Dapia is overlooked by whitewashed, Neoclassical houses, cosy cafes and stylish boutiques. The winding, cobbled coastal path opens to a stunning, wide, timeless piazza and home to the glorious, chateau-style Poseidonion hotel. Cars are banned from the town, so visitors travel in horse-drawn carriages, admiring the fishermen laying out their catches, the impressive villas, domed churches and buzzy tavernas.  There are three stunning beaches close to the villa, Costa Beach, Hrisi Akti Beach and Porto Heli Beach. There are a number of pretty villages and towns to visit close by including Kranidi, Kilada, a small fishing village, the picturesque Ermioni and Epidaurus. Ermioni is built on a cape, surrounded by fragrant pine trees, so it strongly resembles an island. It boasts stunning beaches, a charismatic harbour lined with popular fish restaurants and some clubs. The beaches include little coves around Bisti, Kouverta Beach, Petrothalassa, Dardiza and Sentoni. Epidaurus is one of the most popular archaeological sites in Greece, mostly famous for its Ancient Theatre which is in an excellent state of conservation.
