Svolis Beachhouse – Beachfront villa in a picturesque bay – Karystos on Evia

Svolis Beachhouse is a holiday home right by the sea in a small bay near Karystos on the island of Evia (Euboea) in Greece. The house was built to face the sea – from many of the rooms, large windows and patio doors offer views of the coast. You can hear the sound of the waves even from inside the house.

The beach is just a few steps away. The small, sheltered bay is particularly well suited for bathing, swimming or snorkelling and is also easily accessible for children.

The house features several bedrooms, en-suite bathrooms and a spacious kitchen-diner and living areas. This makes the seaside holiday home on Evia particularly suitable for families, couples travelling together or small groups.

Terraces and outdoor areas extend the living space out into the open air and provide space for al fresco dining or relaxing moments whilst enjoying views of the sea and the countryside.

Svolis Beachhouse combines a peaceful beachfront location with easy access to the port town of Karystos, which is just a few minutes away and offers restaurants, cafés, shops and a lively promenade.

Everything about this house and its surroundings is perfect for a relaxing holiday. This was already our second stay here, and it certainly won't be our last. As a three-generation family, everyone found something they loved: snorkelling, scuba diving, boat trips, exploring the area, strolling through the harbour, enjoying delicious Greek food and, of course, swimming in the crystal-clear sea right in front of the house. Even in July, we often had the beach almost entirely to ourselves. A big thank you to Peter and Raukia for their wonderful hospitality. We enjoyed every single moment of our stay.

★★★★★ Nadine Wermuth 22/06/2026

This was definitely one of the most beautiful holiday homes we have ever stayed in. The location right on the beach is simply incredible – we often had the beach entirely to ourselves, which made it feel like a little paradise. The house is beautifully furnished, spotlessly clean and exceptionally well equipped. It truly had everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. What made our stay even more special were the hosts. They are the warmest, most welcoming people we have ever met. Thank you so much for letting us spend such a wonderful time in your beautiful home!

Wir waren mit unserem 6-jährigen Sohn unterwegs, der sich im liebevoll gepflegten Garten und im Pool richtig austoben konnte. Die Lage ist ideal für alle, die Karystos gerne zu Fuß oder mit dem Fahrrad erkunden möchten. Geschäfte, Supermärkte und Restaurants sind bequem erreichbar. Die Kommunikation mit Raukia war von Anfang an herzlich und unkompliziert. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und kommen sehr gerne wieder!

★★★★★ Thomas Brückner 14/06/2026

We have just spent a wonderful week in this beautifully renovated townhouse in Karystos. The house has been restored with great taste and equipped to a very high standard, providing everything you could possibly need during your stay in this lovely Greek town. The garden is beautifully landscaped with lush Mediterranean plants, creating a peaceful place to relax. The plunge pool is perfect for cooling off at any time of the day, while the different seating areas offer both sunny and shaded spots for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Everything is within easy walking distance. The harbour, cafés, tavernas and restaurants are just a few hundred metres away, and even the nearest beaches can be reached without a car. What made our stay truly special, however, was the warm welcome from Raukia and Peter. From the very first moment it was clear how much they care about making their guests feel at home. Their kindness, hospitality and genuine love for Karystos made our holiday unforgettable. If you are looking for an authentic Greek experience away from the crowded tourist resorts, this is the perfect place. We sincerely hope to return one day.

We had a wonderful time in Karystos, thanks to our lovely accomodation! Svolis townhouse is indeed a green oasis in the center of Karystos, beautifully renovated, equipped with everything you could wish for. Our kids loved the pool. Another plus: The location is very central – just a short walk to the harbour, restaurants and shops. We will definitely stay here again!

★★★★★ Laura 20/04/2026

The house is gorgeous and in an excellent location. Having a pool makes all the difference and was perfect for spending time with our grown-up children. The beach, the town centre and the supermarkets are all within easy walking distance. The owners were easy to contact before, during and after our stay. A wonderful place to stay – we'll definitely be back!

Our holiday homes in Karystos on Euboea (Evia), near Athens

Svolis Beachhouse & Svolis Townhouse Svolis Beachhouse & Svolis Townhouse Svolis Beachhouse & Svolis Townhouse

With Svolis Townhouse and Svolis Beachhouse, we have created two very different holiday homes in Karystos on the island of Euboea (Evia) – and brought two projects close to our hearts to fruition.

Peter was born and brought up in England, but has Greek and Danish roots. My mother is German, my father is Portuguese. Our lives are divided between Berlin, Lisbon and Karystos. We love this nomadic lifestyle and feel at home in all three places. A few years ago, we discovered our passion for architecture and the restoration of old houses. And we love being hosts. With our two holiday homes in Karystos, we have combined these two passions.

For anyone who isn’t yet familiar with Karystos: Karystos is situated in the south of the island of Evia, about two hours from Athens. The small harbour town combines a lively promenade with beaches, mountains and a well-established local infrastructure. Cafés, restaurants and small shops characterise everyday life in the town. Karystos is quieter than many traditional holiday destinations in Greece and has retained much of its original atmosphere.

Our two properties reflect this diversity and offer the perfect base from which to explore this special place:

  • Svolis Townhouse is situated in the historic centre of Karystos. We have lovingly restored this old stone house, which combines traditional architecture with modern interiors. A private garden with a pool creates a secluded retreat in the heart of the town – a rare combination in the town centre. From here, the harbour promenade, restaurants, cafés and several beaches are within easy walking distance.
  • Svolis Beachhouse is situated just a few minutes outside the town in a small cove right by the sea. The beach is practically on the doorstep, and from the terraces and living areas, the view stretches far out across the coast. Here, life by the sea takes centre stage – with peaceful days on the beach and plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors.



Incidentally, our beach house is also home to some animal residents: Moo and Pip – two very friendly outdoor cats born here. They’ve been vaccinated, dewormed and treated for fleas. They both love children and absolutely love being stroked, being fed and having fresh water!
