Spetses, Greece

Location
Orloff Resort is on the island of Spetses, one of the Saronic Islands. The nearest airport is Athens, and Spetses is very easily accessible from Athens through the port of Piraeus.

By Air:
Athens (190km). Click on the links below for a list of airlines.

From Athens airport
Take the airport bus or the train/metro or a taxi to Piraeus port (approx. 1 hour).

From Piraeus, there are several daily hydrofoils and catamarans to Spetses, taking 2-3 hours, as well as occasional ferry boats taking at least twice as long (but much more stable in choppy seas). Check out GTP for timetables.

By Car:
Alternatively you can drive from Athens to Kosta (near Porto Heli) in the Peloponnese (2 hours) and then take a sea taxi to the island (5 minutes). If you want to hire a car we recommend Holiday Autos who are usually the cheapest and you can book online.

By Taxi:
If you don't want to hire a car, Orloff can organise a taxi transfer from Athens airport to Kosta (2 hours' drive). You will be met at the port of Spetses and transferred to the hotel at no cost.

Save to favouritesPrintMailOrloff ResortSpetses is truly the 'island of aromas': lemon trees dot the pebbled lanes, pine forests scent the hills and the old harbour is awash with the tang of salt water, fresh paint and seafood. But one thing you won't smell is fumes: there are only a handful of cars on the island; most visitors get about by horse-drawn buggy or bicycle. No surprise, then, that the Athenians flock here at weekends - it's 2 hours by hydrofoil from Piraeus. Set close to the old harbour, the Orloff is a rare breath of contemporary chic. Hidden within the stone-walled grounds of a 19th century family mansion, its whitewashed buildings cluster round a large pool, with pebbled paths and designer deckchairs shaded by ancient olive trees. [r:GR047:Inside], cool white walls are brightened by scarlet or ochre cushions, gnarled iron lamps and bedside tables carved from tree trunks. Take a friend or partner and spend a glorious week lazing by the pool, cycling round the island and indulging in delicious Greek food and hospitality.
