Villas for Extraordinary Celebrations: Cleonice

Written by Leon Eley
Villas for Extraordinary Celebrations: Cleonice
At the top of one of Spetses’ most coveted hills, Cleonice is an impressive private estate made for bringing family and friends together. A long, cypress-lined driveway leads through 5.5 acres of gardens to a collection of beautifully designed buildings, with panoramic views across the island and sea. Sleeping up to 14 guests in seven en-suite bedrooms, it is an especially appealing setting for milestone birthdays, anniversaries and multi-generational celebrations. Just a 20-minute walk from Spetses Town, it offers the rare combination of a secluded estate and easy access to the island’s restaurants, beaches and harbour.

An Estate of Your Own

The main house and two independent guesthouses are spread across the estate, giving different generations or groups of friends the freedom to have their own space. Bedrooms are individually styled, with a particularly generous master suite, while the 20m infinity pool forms the centre of life outdoors. A poolside bar makes it an inviting place to spend long afternoons before drinks and dinner.

Inside and out, there are several places to gather, from the main house and its long panoramic terrace to the shaded al fresco dining area. The private chapel adds another distinctive touch, while the gardens provide a beautiful setting for an occasion to unfold from day into evening.

The Flavours of Spetses

Our local connections make it possible to bring the best of Spetses to the villa, from private chefs and waiting staff to excellent seafood and local wines. Daily cook service covers breakfast and either lunch or dinner, while larger celebrations can be catered to suit the occasion, whether that means a relaxed Greek feast or a more elaborate dinner.

Make It Your Own

Cleonice lends itself to celebrations that feel personal rather than prescribed. A birthday might begin with lunch by the pool before moving into an evening of traditional Greek music and dancing, while flowers, entertainment and other details can be arranged through trusted local contacts.

For particularly meaningful occasions, celebrations can extend beyond the estate, from a private dinner in Spetses Town to a vow renewal at the local cathedral. Traditional plate-breaking can add a suitably joyful Greek finale.

With its remarkable hilltop setting, generous estate and close connection to the island, Cleonice is a memorable place to mark the occasions that bring everyone together.

"Cleonice was a beautiful and roomy villa and perfect for our family of 8 grown-ups. The villa staff could not have been nicer and more helpful. We had a luxury vacation on a picturesque island in the Greek sunshine!"
