From the Guest Book
Read the insightful reviews from travellers who have experienced this villa and our service firsthand.
I just wanted to send an official note letting you know how amazing the Margarita Villa and Hydra team have been: our Chef Chef Kyriakos; our Captain, Danny; our Concierge, Georgia; and the house staff at Margarita were all PERFECT! Charming, responsive, helpful, kind — and all very talented at their jobs - particularly the Chef! They got along well, worked seamlessly together and made us feel very much at home.

Margarita was in perfect conditions. The setting, the grounds and views were perfect too. The chef and the property manager were great. The food was top notch and the service was great too.

The staff at Margarita were impeccable. A discreet team who kept the villa and grounds looking beautiful at all times. The chef was spectacular. Every meal that she prepared was a joy. Delicious and exactly what we liked to eat. Hydra was charming and it was fun taking the sea taxi there and back. The restaurants were very high quality.

We would return to Margarita for the sea and the location. I haven’t enjoyed the sea so much for years.

The Area
Margarita is situated on the secluded pebbly beach of Molos on the north coast of Hydra, about 5.5km west of the island's capital, Hydra Port.
Hydra is the most southerly of the Saronic Islands after Spetses, and is located off the eastern tip of the Peloponnese. Measuring just 20km (west to east) by 5km (north to south), it is easy to discover in a week, as long as you rent a boat or travel by sea taxi - cars are not allowed on Hydra and there are very few roads. Fortunately, Margarita has a jetty.
Apart from Molos beach right outside the villa, there are several other idyllic bays to enjoy, including Bisti, Mpisti and Agios Nikolaos to the west, Plakes (on the way towards Hydra Port) and Mandraki in the northeast, and Limnioniza on the southeast coast.
The island's mountainous hinterland is scattered with monasteries and crisscrossed by ancient mule tracks, making hiking an interesting proposition in the spring and autumn. Peaks rise up to over 500m before plummeting precipitously into the sea, especially on the south coast, and creating a spectacular coastline.
The island's capital, Hydra Port, is a pretty, unspoilt town and well worth spending some time in. Its harbourfront tavernas and bars rub shoulders with grand mansions built by 19th-century shipping magnates, and there are plenty of independent little shops and a few museums and galleries to explore.
