Kea, also known as Tzia, is one of the closest islands to Athens. There are 4 to 5 ferry boats going to and from the island every day in the summer months. As there are few hotels on the island so mostly private homes are rented out. These homes are mainly built from local stone, giving Kea its unique architecture. The island of Kea is sparsely populated and has been called the Hidden Gem of the Cycladic islands, so ideal for those that want to have a relaxing holiday.
The villa is built in the area of Mavrabeli, in a quiet secluded area, 5.5 kilometers from the port of Kea, 500 meters of which is a dirt road and a 15 minutes car ride in total. A 4 X 4 is highly recommended. The villa, which is 175 square meters, is set on a 24,000 square meter plot of land.
