Kairos is holidays in Greece for body and soul. Whether you join us for a workshop or choose a self-catering holidays in our small family run, family friendly retreat in the village of Eleftheres in northern Greece, our place, beautifully situated in a hillside with stunning views to olives groves, vineyards and the sea, is the perfect place to relax, unwind and recharge your batteries.

Staying with us in either Villa Kalypso or Villa Lotus you'll experience the real Greece. This is the only guest house in the village and you're unlikely to meet other tourists. Though watch out for flocks of goats and sheep!

The Greeks have two terms for time: Cronos, which is used about the restricted time, the time ruled by hours and minutes, by appointments and schedules. Then there is Kairos, which is when time and destiny meet. Cronos is quantitative, while Kairos is quality time.

The daemon Kairos, youngest son of Zeus, is pictured with wings on his feet and back as a symbol of transitoriness and with a long lock of hair so that you have a chance to grab him.

Here's no rush. No satelitte televison, internet or telephones. Go for a stroll, sit on the terrace with a book or your own thoughts, enjoy a good meal and a glass of local wine in our family restaurant, which is situated in the garden. Take it easy.

Kairos - time to be you.

If you would like to join one of our workshops the program for summer 2008 includes Pilates, creative writing and spiritual discovery workshop. Also be sure to check out activities like rock climbing and walking in our beautiful mountains. Though we are only a short bus ride away from some of the best beaches in Greece, a Kairos holiday is also a holiday for those of you who'd like to do something more than just lie on the beach.
