Location

This amazing villa is located in a town of the former municipality in Achaea, West Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Aigialeia, of which it is a municipal unit. The location is in a valley with two mountaintops. The river named Krathi flows near the centre of the town. The river empties east of Cape Akrata.

The urban area is on both mountains. Akrata Beach, where the hotels are located, is about 4km northeast and Cape Akrata is also to the northeast. The nearby interchange for Gr-8A/E65 is in Aigeira 4km southwest and the old highway is to the northeast with two entrances. It is linked by a road to Kranidi and Galatas along with Poros. It is located 70km southeast of Patras, southeast of Aigio, west-northwest of Corinth, north of Tripoli and northeast of Kalavryta.

The name is derived from the side of the Krathi. Next to the city are the ruins of the ancient city of Aigai and its ancient theatre.

The municipality was founded in 1879 but was dissolved in 1914. The municipality was refunded in 1986 along with Sylivainiotika, Porovitsa and Krathio. In 1998 under the Capodistrian Plan, the municipality was enlarged to include every village and town in the municipality.

Much of the area is grassy and forests are found to the north. Farmlands dominate the northeast near the Krathio area, while the buildings are to the northeast near the boundary with Aigeira. The municipality is also famous for its beaches, which lie near the Gulf of Corinth, and overlooks the gulf.

The mountains lie to the south and are mainly grassy and bushy. The forests are within the Gulf of Corinth to the north.

Lake Tsivlos is by the road linking Akrata and Zarouchla. In Peristera, it has the spring of Golfos which was filmed in Gkolfo.

In the mid-20th century, the roads were paved and the villages first received electricity.

Until the 1970s it was mostly a destination for the local population that had moved to Athens or Patras. It took off as a tourist destination in the 1980s, especially for Greeks. Construction took off in the 1990s and the coast soon turned into a tightly built, concrete zone.
