Location
About the surrounding area of Villa MilesNestled snugly into the hillside amidst ancient olive groves, Villa Miles overlooks the Pagasitkos Gulf near the village of Pelion, Thessaloniki, on the mainland of northern Greece, with stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea. Set within a nine-thousand-square-metre plot, the villa offers panoramic sea vistas, with Mount Pelion commanding views of the Gulf of Magnesia and the Euboia Sea, the legendary setting of Jason and the Argonauts. The nearest airport, Nea Anchialos National Airport in Volos, lies a one-hour drive, thirty-four kilometres away.
Surrounded by mountains, the villa offers secluded tranquillity ideal for hiking along stone paths, through forests and green slopes to picturesque beaches. Noteworthy among them are Mylopotamus, Agios Ioannis, Herefto, and Fakistra, boasting crystal-clear cobalt blue waters and various amenities.
Pelion, shunning mass tourism, invites exploration by car, particularly to its charming villages like Makrinitsa, Portaria, Milies, and Tsagarada, adorned with traditional three-story architecture and lush greenery. Activities abound, from mountain biking and snorkelling to wine tasting and exploring Greek Orthodox churches. A visit to Volos, a bustling coastal city known for its fish restaurants and Tsipouro, is essential, offering a blend of history, culture, and scenic beauty.
Pelion's allure extends throughout the year, with its postcard-perfect villages, snowy landscapes, and nearby ski centre in Chania promising both summer and winter delights. This is the Greece where you drive through a village square with men sat around sipping dark coffee or a glass of milky ouzo, counting beads on a string.

Kids
Best Suited For: All Agesour children will delight in a stay at Villa Miles, where the fun begins with your very own private swimming pool featuring easy step entry. With no fixed hours, they can splash and play to their heart's content all day long. Nestled in a mountainous setting, the villa provides an ideal starting point for family hikes, where set trails unveil the local flora and fauna. Explore the enchanting forest of Tzagarda or embark on the Centaur’s Path at Portaria, following the red stone trail to the refreshing Spring of Manas, complete with a fountain offering fresh drinking water.
For those who prefer wheels, there are exhilarating cycle tours, while horseback riding offers another exciting option. Along the Pelion peninsula, numerous family-friendly beaches await. Highly recommended is Agios Ioannis, boasting pristine waters and a towering tree-lined backdrop providing ample shade. Mylopotamus offers crystal-clear waters but is better suited for older children due to steep access steps. Herefto boasts family-friendly facilities including sun loungers, umbrellas, seaside tavernas, and tourist services. Xinovrisi features sandy shores and large rocks emerging from the sea, perfect for your kids' enjoyment.
No trip to Pelion is complete without a ride on the legendary nineteenth-century steam train, affectionately known as Moutzouris or Smudgy. This year-round journey covers a scenic twenty-eight-kilometre route from Volos to Melies, passing through traditional villages and historical landmarks. Gain insight into the region's heritage at the Museum of Folk Art in Makrinitsa or explore the fascinating Museum of Worry Beads in Portaria, showcasing the history and cultural significance of these traditional Greek accessories.
Whether joining a group tour or chartering a yacht, a family day at sea is a must. Discover hidden coves, swim, snorkel, and savour traditional Greek mezes aboard. For older children, kayaking or mountain canyoning offers thrilling adventures. Whatever their age or interests, a holiday on the Pelion peninsula promises something special for everyone.

Excellent
Beautiful and stylishly decorated place, it has a beautiful view and a very nice garden to enjoy. The private parking and garage are very useful. The apartment is spotlessly clean, has everything you may need. The design of the place is very modern, materials are carefully chosen and mixed together, loved the wood that is everywhere and the brick floors. The hosts received us on very short notice, were very helpful and friendly. I would love to go back and I would definitely recommend it!
