The Old Mayors House offers private car parking space at the rear, as well as numerous spaces at the front of the house. It is in a quiet area of the village with bakery, butcher, green grocer, a couple of mini markets, as well as a traditional gyros bar, where the locals sit, talk, eat and drink.
Ermioni is on a peninsular embraced on both sides by the sea, with a woodland area at the end called BISTI. On the north side is the natural harbour with small fishing boats, shops, banks, post office, pharmacies, cafes, buses, taxis, ferries and the colourful weekly market. On the south side is Mandrakia where there are waterside bars, restaurants and tavernas with their octopus hung out in the sun. The Pine covered Bisti is the perfect place to walk and swim. It has spectacular views across to Hydra and Thermissia, a windmill, ancient remains to discover, and rocky coves with crystal clear waters. The old town rises up a hillside with fine views across to the islands and back across the fertile plains of citrus fruit, pomegranates and olive groves to the mountains behind. Within the old village of Ermioni, there are many traditional white/blue/lemon painted houses, besides a museum, 2 churches, the local bakers, Gyros bar and a couple of supermarkets. The sea, restaurants and old village are just a few minutes walk away and the rest of the town’s amenities are about 5 minutes walk.
