You want a relaxing and well-deserved break but most of all you want to receive honest  and reliable service from a team of people who have your best interests at heart.  Our aim is to add intrinsic value to your holiday and create an unforgettable experience by offering personal knowledge and unique service.  We will give you an honest appraisal of our properties and try to find the one which best fits your criteria.


  Poros - Imagine your Greek island   holiday... White painted streets, a  bustling  harbour  packed with cafes and shops, quiet backwaters of narrow streets and tavernas with sea views. Pastel painted cottages, magnificent coastal path views, ancient ruins and white stone churches and a choice of uncrowded beaches..
Poros Town`s water edge tavernas serve good food prepared for you from local produce - wine, fish, meat, fruit and vegetables. Galatas is just a stone throws throw away over the water where Pomegranate, orange and lemon groves adorn the hillside. The pace is slow, supremely relaxed and you are in no hurry. The service and value is superb. Poros is just one hour from the port of Athens by fast ferry and for added exploration the mainland is just 2 minutes across the water.  See view of "sleeping lady" mountain range from Poros.

Poros island has a host of unique features such as the "Sanctuary of Poseidon" where there are 15th century remains located at the top of the island. Russian bay is the most historically important beach on the island where the first Russian ships docked during the Greek revolution. Russian bay has a large, golden sandy bay set against historical remains and the odd passing goat!
 

Further afield we have villas with pools in Zakynthos, also known as Zante.  We are very familiar with Poros and neighbouring islands including mainland Greece with Galatas opposite Poros and ancient Epidavros just a short drive away. If you have not been to this beautiful part of Greece we can advise you on the various resorts so call or email with your requirements for your ideal Greek island holiday.

Nearby islands in the Saronic Gulf are Hydra, Spetses and Aegina, all of which can be accessed via fast ferry from Poros.  If you want  to island hop further afield you can nip back to Athens and take a ferry to a whole host of other islands including Mykonos. If you like the idea of a sailing and land-based holiday we can recommend yacht chartering services from the harbour where you can also hire a skipper to take care of you. Villas with pool and yacht chartering are available on the mainland at Ancient Epidavros and on the island of Zakynthos in the Ionion group of islands.


"I don`t know which affected me more deeply, the story of the lemon groves just opposite us, or the sight of Poros itself, when suddenly I realized that we were sailing through the streets. If there is one dream which I like above all others, it is that of sailing on land. Coming into Poros gives the illusion of the deep dream"
The Colossus of Maroussi, by Henry Miller.

The Saronic Gulf has a cluster of magical islands and the mainland, offering a real Greek experience. Just 1 hour from the port of Athens and a world away from city life. The pace here is slow...


Experience real Greece in the Saronic Gulf  and enjoy the magic of Poros and its many surrounding islands while being just 1 hour from Piraeus (Athens). Haven on Earth has personal knowledge of the Saronic islands and will do their best to make your holiday a positively enjoyable experience. For those who enjoy dining out they will be spoilt for choice along the harbour and beachside with waterfront restaurants offering friendly service as well as fantastic sea food. There are many historic sites to visit and with the mainland at Galatas less than 3 minutes across the water there is plenty of opportunity for exploration.  Poros is ideally placed for an island hopping experience with fast or slow ferries at the harbour waiting to take you to other Saronic islands or back to Athens from where many more islands can be visited. Discover Poros.. the Athenians` best kept secret.
