Verdict
How they differ
Price
On today’s figures, Saronida asks about 28% more per square metre than Lagonisi, so Lagonisi gives you more floor space for the same budget. In Lagonisi, homes close to the coves and those further back are priced quite differently.
Life there
Lagonisi has little in the way of a centre. Shops and services are in Kalyvia, a short drive inland, and daily life runs on the car. Saronida has its own compact centre next to the beach, so coffee, groceries and a swim can all be on foot.
What you get for the money
In Lagonisi the money goes into a house or villa on a large plot, often with a garden, near a cove. In Saronida it buys a house or maisonette on a suburban plot, close to both the beach and the centre.
Choosing
