The Area
Roellia sits on the sea close to the upmarket resort of Porto Heli. For many years, the town and its surrounding area (the tip of the easternmost peninsula of the Peloponnese) has been second home to the Athenian aristocracy and Greek shipping magnates, who built sumptuous summer estates there. Today, it attracts the international jet set, from royalty to business tycoons, who come for the sophisticated atmosphere and the sense of hush-hush privacy.
Also known as the Greek Riviera, the peninsula of Porto Heli is lined with gorgeous beaches and lapped by sparkling blue seas. It's a great place for water sports, yachting and island-hopping - the cosmopolitan islands of Spetses and Hydra are just across the water.
Apart from the pebbly beach at the bottom of the garden, guests staying at Roellia can opt to stroll to the sands of Lepitsa, where there is also a seafront restaurant and bar. Rising above Lepitsa beach is a hilly promontory, an unspoilt natural oasis with fabulous views and walking trails, a perfect day out for the more active in your group.
Less than 2km from the villa is the little village of Kilada. Home to a selection of waterfront tavernas, bars and cafés, as well as mini-market, it's a nice spot to spend a little time.
For history lovers, one must-see is the archaeological site of Epidaurus. Its stunning theatre is famed not only for its size and its sensational views, but also for its crystal clear acoustics, and there is much more to see besides.

5 out of 5 for Roellia. The staff were kind, helpful and professional. We enjoyed being in a relaxed, not busy area. The people are kind and hospitable. The beach next to the villa was easy to get to, and of course the taverna. We visited Hydra and Spetses, which was worthwhile.
