We loved our stay at Athena Ares! The location was absolutely perfect — just a quick walk across the street to the beach. The property was beautifully furnished, the pool area was relaxing, and the outdoor cooking space and TV setup made it easy to enjoy the games. We also loved that it’s pet-friendly, which made the trip even better for our pups! The owner was super communicative and made everything smooth from start to finish. We can’t wait to come back!

Awesome place

Booked this as an extended family vacation everyone had a great time over all accessible and clean. Very close to the beach. The rooms were great for my family of four. The pool is awesome the out door space is great. There was a rat in the outdoor space that was comfortable stealing food out of the grill. Would definitely stay there again.

Comfortable Stay Across from the Beach

Easy check in, great communication from the owner. Very clean and really nice! Comfortable beds, pool was super clean and we took our 28lb dog. My only suggestion is for the management group to spring for new cutlery. There was only 1 semi sharp knife and kitchen shears would barely open. It just made things a little difficult to chop veggies and open up bacon package etc.

Just what we needed.

I really enjoyed our stay at Athena Ares. It was conveniently close to the beach. With little ones, that was important. The room was well stocked, and the umbrella and chairs were just a big plus. Overall it was just what we needed for our mini last minute vacation. We will definitely be booking again soon.
