Amazing garden dinning experience
Pros:

We had dinner in the most beautiful garden overlooking the Concordia Temple. It's a set menu group dining experience provided by the hotel. Was an amazing atmosphere and our host Giovanni was incredibly warm, friendly with a great sense of humor. The food was good and plentiful. Massive portions. Nice to also dine with other guests and have pleasant conversation. Enjoyed our experience immensely. Highly recommend.

Amazing bbq with a touch of class
Pros:

We were lucky to run into Giovanni in the bar area and asked for a look at the menu. He said don’t worry about the menu but come have a look at this secret garden. Wow! It was an intimate bbq with wines included ~ hosted by an amazing warm and interesting individual. Giovanni made us feel special and together with his chef they provided a beautiful evening full of local delicacies and interesting stories. The restaurant might be good but ask for other options and you will not be disappointed.

A wonderful experience and relaxing stay!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay! Villa Athena is a beautiful property and provided us with a tranquil and relaxed atmosphere. The entire staff were welcoming, friendly and attentive. We were on first floor with a terrace and the view of the grounds and Temple of Concordia were stunning. Dinner in the formal restaurant was outstanding. We also did the Orto Experience and thought it was wonderful! Giovanni, our host, was a delight! He was charming, funny and certainly made our experience a memorable one! Our room was a generous size, extremely clean and very well appointed. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Very pleasant stay
Pros:

We stayed here for one night after visiting the Valley of the Temples, which is not to be missed. This is a lovely boutique hotel. We had a comfortable room on the first floor with shutters that open to a terrace and a view of the temples. Dinner was excellent with an array of choices and very professional service, and a view of the temples, which are illuminated by footlights at night. Very memorable. There is a very nice pool area.

Dissapointed
Pros:

Michael and I are lucky to have travelled the world in style. Villa Athena was a huge disappointment. The outdoor dining experience was underwhelming with plastic chairs and overpriced dinner. Yesterday 4 waiters mulled around at lunch whilst we had to chase for any service at all. Begrudging service is not what I expect. The view is great but wow they need to get a grip of delivery and this way to expensive for what you get.

Had a lovely time at the spa in Villa Athena
Pros:

I am staying at the Villa Athena and had a wonderful time at the spa today. I had a fabulous massage with Chiara who was exceptionally skilled in both the art of massage and in the aesthetics of transforming my feet with an expertly executed pedicure. She had a strong but gentle touch that melted away the knots in my neck and shoulders, I highly recommend a visit!
