KEFALONIA

ITHAKA
PAGES 50-67
LEFKADA
PAGES 68-87
Home of Ionian Island Holidays and the
largest, most varied of the seven islands.
Dramatic mountains and a coastline made
for exploration, green valleys, secluded
bays, havens of peace and solitude.
The island has some of the most beautiful
beaches in Greece.
An island of hidden coves, green mountains
and secret valleys where reality is as
inspiring as the legend. Our properties are
located in the south around the bustling
main harbour Vathy and in the timeless
small fishing harbour, Kioni, in the north.
Known as the White Island, Lefkada is wild in
the west, with perfect beaches, a turquoise
sea and rugged mountains above
fertile eastern valleys. The rural tradition
of centuries lives on in unspoilt villages
amongst vineyards and olive groves.

relaxation are combined to create a small,

PAGES 98-99
Parga is justifiably referred to as the jewel
of mainland Greece. It is an incredibly
beautiful town, and the most perfect place
by the sea. Picturesque and dramatic
scenery enriched by a long and interesting
history provide compelling reasons to
explore the area.
PAGES 100-127
This island of olives is a holiday paradise
welcoming visitors returning year after year.
Apart from Gaios, the bustling island port
and capital, the rest of Paxos is comprised
of small hamlets and isolated houses
with no large holiday complexes. Even
at the height of the season, this remains
a peaceful island where it is possible to
wander along old mule tracks and discover
shaded paths down to hidden coves.

SKIATHOS
PAGES 146-153
The most romantic and verdant island of
the Ionian. Corfu has inspired writers and
poets for over a thousand years. Despite
its popularity, the magic remains through
its remote, traditional mountain villages,
glorious bays and beaches, as well as
its rich architectural and archeological
heritage. We operate solely to the beautiful
bays and harbours of Corfu’s idyllic north
eastern coastline.
The smaller of the three inhabited islands
and the most popular, due in part to its
airport, but mainly because of its string of
golden sandy beaches, bustling Skiathos
Town and its clear waters. The west coast
is spectacular and largely undeveloped,
whilst the interior is still rural with olive groves,
pine woods and aromatic hillsides that
few explore.
SKOPELOS
ALONISSOS
PAGES 154-173
The island of reefs, a magnificent craggy
coastline hiding secluded bays and narrow
inlets, each with a sheltered beach fringed
by pine forests and olive groves. Skopelos
is remarkably undeveloped. The island’s
eponymous capital is a bustling harbour
with a maze of narrow paved streets, old
churches and a Venetian fortress.
Tel. 020 8459 0777
PAGES 174-177
The remotest of the three inhabited islands,
this is the haven we all dream about when
life becomes too stressful. This narrow
wooded island, once called Ikos (after the
sun and there’s a clue) is about relaxation
and tranquillity. There are many old trails,
criss-crossing the island leading down to
the uncrowded beaches.
PELION
PAGES 178-189
The Pelion Peninsula is truly unique. The
Aegean on one side, the sheltered inland
sea of the Pagasitic Gulf on the other and
the mountains of the Pelion in the north.
The protected forests of oak, chestnut and
beech are the crowning glory of the Pelion.
Unaltered over the centuries, they cover
every hillside, valley and ravine. The Pelion
is unsurpassed for exploration on foot.

MULTI-CENTRE HOLIDAYS
Every Greek Island is unique, even though
they may only be separated by the narrowest of
channels. Take Lefkada and Paxos for example.
They might share the same wonderful climate,
a common language, crystal clear blue water,
you could even argue that a Corfiot olive tastes
exactly the same as a Paxiot one, but to discover
what it is that makes these and any other Greek
Islands so distinctive takes time. Time to relax
of course but also time to experience their
individuality, culture, history and landscape.
And that’s where we come in. No longer need
you wonder what life is like on that island
framing the view, nor confine yourself to a
flying visit by tour boat, pleasant as it might
be, we can make it simple for you to experience
a stay on both.
We organise everything from flights to local
transfers and accommodation. You will need to
contact us for an exact costing. Due to different
airport departure dates we are restricted to
what combinations we can offer but we have
listed some of the popular options below.
• Kefalonia & Ithaka
• North & South Kefalonia
• Lefkada & Meganissi
• East & West Coast Lefkada

Kefalonia has some of the most
spectacular scenery in the region,
such as the Ionian’s highest peak,
Mt Ainos with its famous fir forests,
standing guard over the sandy
beaches of the south, spectacular
caves in the east, magnificent seacliffs
in the west and the gentler beauty of
the Lixouri and Erisos Peninsulas
in the north. Combine all this with
the Kefalonian people themselves,
individual, genuinely friendly and
possessing a marvelous sense of
humour and it is easy to understand
why so many visitors return year
after year.
There is something for everyone on
this island. For the archaeological
amateur detective there is recent
evidence (though whisper this softly
if you visit its smaller neighbour)
that the island of Homer’s epic called
Ithaka is in fact Kefalonia! There’s
even an acropolis that predates its
more famous counterpart in Athens.
Venetian fortresses, British designed
roads and bridges, certainly the island
has a cosmopolitan history, much of
which can still be seen today.
History aside, perhaps Kefalonia’s
greatest asset lies in its diversity.
For a family day out on a blue flag
beach with all the conventional
amenities, Lassi near the island
capital Argostoli would be hard to
beat. Perhaps the choice might be a
secluded beach where ancient olive
trees provide shade for a quiet read
(or siesta!) with the blue waters of the
Ithaka Channel at ones feet, then Foki
Bay near Fiskardo will appeal.
You can also explore by car the
unspoilt mountain villages of the
interior, the fertile valley vineyards
such as Robola or the high forests of
Mt Ainos, then walk the incredible
mule track from Assos that climbs
the mountain behind. Maybe just
stay at home, on balcony or terrace,
contemplating the view, thinking
about a swim in the pool or whether
to eat in at your barbecue or out at a
waterside tavern.
Kefalonia is the home of Ionian Island
Holidays, so we might be just a little
biased, but we would love to share it
with you!

FISKARDO
KEFALONIA’S JEWEL IN THE CROWN WHERE
HISTORY AND SETTING COMBINE TO MAKE
THE PERFECT HOLIDAY DESTINATION.
This sheltered harbour, tucked into the northern tip of
Kefalonia, lined with elegant Venetian houses has been
a haven for seafarers for over ten centuries. Spared by
a quirk of geology from the devastation of the Great
Earthquake in 1953, Fiskardo and its surrounding hamlets
have become increasingly popular for those seeking quiet
holidays in unspoilt surroundings.
KEFALONIA
Natural beauty, an intriguing history, attractive waterfront
shops and tavernas, and the comings and goings of
fishing boats, ferries and yachts, Fiskardo has it all but
on an intimate scale with none of the brashness of the
larger resorts. Add in the friendliness of the local people,
the unspoilt beauty of its coastline and interior and our
selection of traditionally built, comfortable villas in
delightful settings provides all the ingredients for the
perfect holiday. Be warned staying in Fiskardo can easily
become a way of life!

KEFALONIA HAS IT ALL.
This small cluster of whitewashed houses on a narrow
isthmus protected by the mountains and cliffs of the Erisos
Peninsula seems well off the beaten track. And speaking
of tracks, the more energetic might discover the ancient
mule track, largely constructed by unfortunate prisoners
incarcerated in the fortress that zig-zags up the mountain
slopes above the village passing old vine terraces carved
out of the cliffs. On the other hand a main square shaded
by plane trees, a handful of tavernas and a safe beach next
to the quay might prove equally attractive, or possibly
a visit to the world famous Myrtos Beach, a crescent of
white shingle and sand enclosed by towering cliffs is a few
minutes’ drive away.
Tel. 020 8459 0777
Kefalonia is an island of contrasts: the high
mountains of the interior separate landscapes and
ways of life that are uniquely different, South to North,
East to West each region has its own distinctive
atmosphere. Argostoli, the island’s thriving capital,
rebuilt since the earthquake in 1953, is the gateway
to the southwest coast, with its superb blue flag
beaches. Lassi, Platis Gialos and Skala are the most
popular but there are many other smaller and
quieter stretches of sand tucked in secluded coves.
Just a few miles inland is a different world altogether;
fertile valleys fed by springs from the Ionian Islands
highest peak, Mt Ainos are still cultivated for vines,
wheat and vegetables. Traditional villages, historic
castles and monasteries connected by traffic free
lanes through fields and woodland lend themselves
to gentle exploration. Mt Ainos itself is a rewarding
expedition on foot leading to a summit view of
virtually the whole of the Ionian, surely worth
celebrating with a glass or two of Robola, but should
the call of the sea be too loud, our villas here are
perfectly located to enjoy the best of both worlds.
KEFALONIA
The main coast road from Argostoli, Kefalonia’s capital
to Fiskardo rivals any of the more renowned corniches of
the French Riviera. Constructed over two centuries ago
by the islanders it is a marvel of civil engineering and hard
manual labour allowing the modern traveller access to one
of the island’s most historic settlements, the tiny harbour
and village of Assos.

What’s included
Flights, accommodation, transfers,

Accommodation
3 bedroom villa on the water’s edge
A five minute easy walk along a narrow lane leading south from the village brings you to a
house built on the water’s edge boasting one of the most enviable locations in Fiskardo. Crystal
clear turquoise water laps against the lower walls. The bedrooms and living area look out to a
magnificent vista of headlands, distant hills and the Ithaka Channel, where Odysseus’ fabled
kingdom fills the eastern horizon.
To make the most of this fantastic outlook, Talenti’s House has been designed ‘upside down’
so that the living space is upstairs to lend height to the view, whilst the bedrooms are below.
Even falling asleep at Talenti’s is a magical experience with the sound of the waves gently
brushing against the shoreline.
KEFALONIA
The L-shaped living room opens onto a terrace, which is partly shaded and continues
round to a spacious area for sunbathing or that all important al fresco dining experience.
The bedrooms are accessible by an internal staircase leading down to two of the three
bedrooms, a shared balcony and the main bathroom. The third bedroom with its own
WC and hand basin is accessible from the outside balcony. There is an old boathouse
at sea level, hung with nets and a huge oak wine-barrel a perfect place to enjoy a quiet
moment by the water’s edge. Naturally, there is swimming on the doorstep off the rocks.
For added enjoyment to enhance your stay why not hire your own motor boat which can be
moored on the little jetty during the day.
Talenti’s House is a popular choice for those who like quirky, rustic unusual houses with plenty
of character in a spectacular location.

KARTERI & WATERFRONT APARTMENTS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 5 • SHARED PLUNGE POOL • AIR CONDITIONING IN LIVING AREAS
One of the many advantages of a holiday in Fiskardo is that everything is on your doorstep, such
as the array of excellent tavernas and small shops, the comings and goings of the yachts and
fishing boats, the narrow alleys and paved waterfront all free from traffic. The nearest beaches
are just a short stroll away.
The Karteri and Waterfront Apartments are situated adjacent to each other in the heart of the
village, just a few steps away from all its amenities. Both have strong links to Fiskardo’s colourful
history. Karteri means “to wait or ambush”, and the apartments have been built into the hillside
which owing to its sweeping views of the Ithaka Channel was used by lookouts to warn of the
approach of pirates, yet still be within easy reach of the galleys moored in the harbour.
Karteri Apartments have been designed to maximize the views over the harbor and coastline.
Each apartment or studio has its own terrace or balcony perfect for watching the daily activity
in the harbour or later those ships that pass in the night along the Ithaka Channel. All are
comfortable and fully equipped. A pathway and steps lead down past the terraced gardens and
plunge pool shared with the Waterfront to a flag-stoned alley and the harbour.
The Waterfront as its name implies overlooks the quayside. The house was built by Makis, the
present owner’s grandfather, who owned a trading schooner. His grandmother used to stand on
the balcony watching and waiting for the first sight of her husband’s ship returning to port.
Today there are two comfortable apartments each with its own balcony, perfect for watching
today’s world go by below on land and sea. A good night’s sleep is assured as the bedrooms are at
the rear of the apartments. Given their location right in the centre of Fiskardo it is not surprising
that many of our guests return to these apartments year after year.

KALOKERI APARTMENTS
ONE OF THE FINEST PANORAMAS IN KEFALONIA WITH
MAGNIFICENT VIEWS TOWARDS ITHAKA AND LEFKADA
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 5 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • PART CAR HIRE
The harbour of Fiskardo in north Kefalonia has earned itself a huge reputation despite being
a small fishing harbour. It encapsulates everything that makes the Ionian Islands so special;
history, architecture and above all an outstandingly beautiful location. The view of the
waterfront with its colourful mix of fishing boats, yachts and the old Venetian lighthouse across
the bay is justifiably famous.
To appreciate the full grandeur of the setting, one should really walk up the hill and find a glade
in the fir forest above the village as suddenly all is revealed in a wide sweep that encompasses
the gleaming white peaks of Lefkada, the green hills of Epiros, mysterious Ithaka and the
sparkling waters of the Ionian. It is quite simply breathtaking and inspirational.
KEFALONIA
The Kalokeri Apartments have turned dream into reality being a mere ten minute stroll from
Fiskardo, the panorama from any of the balconies has to be seen to be believed, a view for all
hours of the day and all seasons. In the morning, light and shadow highlight the mountains,
by night the sea becomes a dark mirror, dotted with fishing boats as they make their way back
to harbour with the night’s catch. At midday with the breeze the yachts spread out past the
millionaire’s island of Arkoudi, bound for Meganisi or Kalamos.
12
With half closed eyes, one can imagine the Corinthian fleet sailing north up the channel past
the cliffs of Ithaka towards Corfu during the great Battle of Sivota in 420 BC. The breeze settles
during the evening and the sun sets beyond Sappho’s Point on Lefkada to the west. Looking
down across the tree tops, the pantiled roofs of the village fade and the lights emerge, reflected
in the darkening water.
The apartments are comfortable and designed to maximise the amazing views, a good size
pool with ample shade on those very warm days and a snack bar for drinks and light lunches.
www.ionianislandholidays.com
The two bedroom apartments have a twin bedroom at the rear and a double bedroom at the
front which leads onto a private balcony. There are also two shower rooms and a balcony leading
out from the living room. The one bedroom apartments have double or twin beds with a shower
room, living room with a sofa bed leading onto the balcony (air conditioning is in the living
area). Studios are extremely spacious and have double or twin beds, shower room and their own
sizeable private balconies with those amazing views. Ground floor apartments each have their
own terrace.
Exploring the fascinating Erissos coast couldn’t be easier; the picturesque Emblisi Beach is less
than ten minute walk. Motor boats are available for hire to discover the uninhabited east coast
with its bays only accessible by sea, or across to the fascinating island of Ithaka.
Kalokeri or ‘Summer’ is one of the more evocative Greek words. It translates literally as ‘fine
weather’ and as northern Kefalonia experiences over 300 days of sunshine a year, the spirit of
summer lasts a long time here.

MATSOUKATA NEAR FISKARDO
ALEXANNA APARTMENTS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 5 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
A five minute drive from Fiskardo along the eastern coastline brings you to Matsoukata, the
charming family village of Tassos and his wife Rowena. It is hard to believe you are so close to
bustling Fiskardo, such is the wonderful atmosphere and peace of your surroundings.
The Alexanna Apartments consist of two sand coloured houses with traditional shuttered
windows, both carefully and lovingly constructed around the family’s precious olive grove.
Some of these trees are many hundreds of years old.
There are a total of six apartments in the first house: two studios, three one bedroom and one
two bedroom apartments, with three studios in the second. All apartments enjoy wonderful
view across the green forest carpet towards Doliha Bay and to Ithaka beyond. Two of the ground
floor balconies are sheltered from the sun by a canopy of vines and a third by bougainvillea.
A pleasant twenty minute walk brings you to the traditional village of Manganos, where you will
find a well-stocked store, a greengrocer, kafenion and family run taverna with sublime sunsets.
Whether it is the play of light upon the glistening sea, the sun and shadows on the green hills of
Ithaka or the contrasting shapes of the slender cypress’s and the broader olives swaying gently
in the breeze, no two apartments have exactly the same view from their balconies or terraces but
all are equally memorable.
Alexanna is surrounded by an abundance of vibrant and fragrant flowers and shrubs. Carefully
planted and regularly tended by Rowena, the gardens behind are beautifully landscaped, with
a large swimming pool set in a glade of hollyoaks and olive trees. Pool side is a perfect place to
relax, as there is little to disturb you apart from the occasional sound of the goat bells from the
neighbouring hillsides.

A lovely villa set in the village of Matsoukata with exquisite views. Along with the neighbouring
Alexanna Apartments, it enjoys far reaching panoramic views towards the island of Ithaka

to ambush Odysseus on his return.

bedroom with en suite shower room. There is an additional bathroom upstairs. All of the
bedrooms have balconies. There is a fourth bedroom downstairs with en suite shower opening

air. On one side is an ancient gnarled olive tree, hollowed over the centuries and the lemon tree
next to the house is equally impressive, possibly the biggest in the area, it hangs heavy with fruit
every summer.

Matsoukata is a quiet backwater surrounded by aged walls, olive groves and the ruins of ancient
houses. Old pathways linking all the scattered settlements of the area provide opportunities
for wonderful evening strolls. Fiskardo itself is only five minute drive down the hill, passing

with taverna, greengrocer and mini-market is again only two minutes drive on the main road to

ANNA’S HOUSE
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Overlooking the oak and cypress woodland beyond to the blue waters of the Adriatic, Anna’s
House has been designed and built to the highest specification taking full advantage of the
outstanding views and the natural beauty surrounding it.
Anna’s House is truly exceptional with extraordinary design and wonderful views. Set in an old
vineyard, overlooking the lush green of a protected forest and framed by the glorious blue of the
Ionian Sea. The unique central feature of this stylish three bedroom villa is its full height picture
windows that bring the natural light and surroundings right into the main living areas.
Immediately on opening the door one steps onto a galleried salon, with comfortable seating and
a beautifully crafted wooden beamed ceiling. Beyond the finely worked balustrade, the view
through the upper half of large front windows is simply breathtaking.
Off each side of the salon are two bedrooms, one with twin beds and an en suite shower, the
other with double bed and en suite bathroom. Downstairs is the superbly furnished living
and dining room. Here the picture windows on either side of the central fireplace bring the
extraordinary view right into the heart of the house and when the spectacular Ionian sunset has
faded, the clarity of the night skies fills the room.
There is a fully fitted kitchen thoughtfully designed for ease of living. A further twin bedroom
with en suite shower room is adjacent to the living room opening onto the front terrace with an
infinity pool and a spacious sun terrace, fully equipped with al fresco kitchen and barbecue.

VILLA ASTERIA
A SUPERB LOCATION AND SPACIOUS ACCOMMODATION MAKES
THE VILLA ASTERIA AN EXCELLENT CHOICE WITH STUNNING VIEWS
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOLS• AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The west side of the high plateau of the Erissos Peninsula consists of a long line of great cliffs and
headlands, whilst the more sheltered eastern side is clothed in oak and cypress forest overlooking
the legendary island of Ithaka. It is here that one finds a series of small villages and hamlets,
originally built many hundreds of years ago. Evreti is one of the oldest hamlets on Kefalonia, and
although its builders were probably not too concerned by the view, they chose one of the most
outstanding locations on the island! Villa Asteria, built more recently and offers exquisite views
across the channel to Ithaka, with the tiny island of Asteris, or Star, and its lonely chapel.
The elegant two-storey Villa Asteria, built in the traditional Kefalonian style has been furnished
to a good standard, and designed with families or larger groups in mind. If there are youngsters
in the party they will enjoy the children’s pool which adjoins the main swimming pool. Both
are situated on a spacious terrace, with shaded areas, comfortable armchairs from which to
appreciate the uninterrupted view out over the forested hillside to the mountains of Ithaka.
KEFALONIA
Built over two levels, the ground floor has a large twin bedroom with a full bath and walk in
closet. A fully fitted kitchen leads into the living room opening onto the pool terrace. The master
bedroom on the first floor with en-suite bathroom and a large walk in closet with doors leading
to the covered balcony. The twin bedroom has an en suite small shower room and again opens
onto the covered balcony with the same glorious views.

Picturesque Foki Bay with its small taverna, and olive tree-lined beach is a short drive away,
and a further 5 minutes’ drive leads you into Fiskardo, with its bustling, traditional Venetian
waterfront lined with tavernas and shops. The Erissos Peninsula itself is one of the least
developed regions on the island, with unspoilt hill villages, dramatic cliffs on the west coast,
and a series of quiet beaches, connected by shaded paths through the woods.

ALONI COTTAGES
2 TWO BEDROOM VILLAS AND 1 TWO BEDROOM APARTMENT • SLEEPS 2 – 5 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL
AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Aloni is the Greek word for ‘threshing floor’, a circle of carefully laid flagstones with a post in the
middle usually built on a rise to catch the wind, around which a donkey was led to separate the
wheat from the chaff. Spiros and Georgia were careful to preserve this important piece of island
history when they built houses amongst the olive trees. Near the small village of Antipata on the
hill above Fiskardo, it has become a focal point of the properties, minus the donkey of course!
There is a delightful rural appeal, with trees surrounding the houses through which the island
of Lefkada can be seen. The houses are secluded and set off the coastal road, but are only
a short walk from the village of Antipata where there are two tavernas and a mini market.
Dafnoudi Beach can also be reached by a pleasant walk of about twenty five minutes, through
the delightful cypress forest.
Spiros and Georgia live in the upstairs apartment of one house whilst the lower apartment,
“Georgia”, is completely separate. Georgia is a very spacious and comfortable two bedroom
apartment. There is a partly shaded terrace to the front and the one twin bedroom has French
windows with its own patio and sea views. The couple respect the privacy of their guests and are
lovely, warm people.
Spiros and Georgia have named two delightful detached cottages on the land adjoining their home
after their children, Apostoli and Eleni. Each has two bedrooms with French windows leading onto
a shaded patio. The rooms are spacious and airy and have authentic touches, such as traditional
wrought iron beds. The dining/ living room area is comfortable and beautifully laid out, with
carvings made from local olive wood and a fully fitted kitchen area with washing machine.
Being west facing, all the houses enjoy beautiful evening skies. The shared swimming pool
completes the appeal of this wonderful location.

VILLA ASTRA
STUNNING VILLA WITH A PANORAMA OF THE MAGICAL SOUTHERN
IONIAN ISLANDS
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS • CAR HIRE
On a fine summer’s morning as the first yachts ease their way off their moorings in the tiny
port of Fiskardo the early risers are ordering their first coffee in one the waterfront cafes.
It’s hard to believe that life was completely different 70 years ago. The occupying Italian army,
without logistical support, decimated the islanders’ food supplies. Farming communities such
as Katsarata, on the hillside above Fiskardo, would have faced starvation had they not managed
to hide their wheat harvest in caves and old cisterns in the surrounding woods. Now, in more
peaceful times, traditional farming is no longer viable and these same fields provide the perfect
setting for houses such as Villa Astra.
Built into the hillside on one level and set in its own walled and landscaped gardens, Villa
Astra has been designed so that every room not only enjoys a daytime view stretching from the
lighthouse to the south west of Lefkada, to the northern half of Ithaka, but also opens directly
onto the front terrace and swimming pool. At nightfall, the house is transformed; the cooler
evening air clears away the haze of the daytime heat.
KEFALONIA
The villa is designed to give the feeling of space with a large open plan living area with a wellequipped kitchen. A modern version of a traditional Kefalonian open hearth is the centre piece
of the spacious sitting room. All three bedrooms lead out onto a terrace. The master bedroom
has an adjoining shower room and two twin bedrooms share the main bathroom.

VILLA CHLOE
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Fiskardo comes alive at night, not to the beat of disco bars, but in a friendly, relaxed
cosmopolitan way. The heat of the day subsides to a pleasant warmth and the yachts flying
flags of many nations are all safely moored, whilst locals and visitors mingle on the quayside.
For a quiet evening in, watching the shadows lengthen and the colour fade from the hills of
Ithaka or listening out for the haunting cry of the tiny Scops owl, the poolside terrace is perfect.
The days aren’t so bad either in this modern, comfortable villa with lovely views over the trees
and water to Odysseus’s fabled kingdom of Ithaka with Lefkada’s dramatic mountains rising to
the north.
Once you’ve climbed the stone steps from the driveway to the raised semi-circular terrace and
swimming pool there are no more stairs, so this is easy and spacious holiday living on one floor
with no arguments about whose room is closest to the pool.
This three bedroom villa has an additional separate shower and toilet, and the master double
with its own en suite. The kitchen, living and dining room are open plan, with comfortable
furniture and modern fittings complemented by a traditional wooden beamed and lined ceiling.
The view from inside the house can only be improved by stepping outside. For shade-lovers
there is a delightful pergola, whilst the sun worshippers of the family can relax on comfortable
sun loungers by the pool.
Chloe, whose name means “green shoot” is famous as the heroine of one of the few ancient
Greek myths with a happy ending. Brought up by shepherds along with her lifelong sweetheart
Daphnis, who is kidnapped by pirates but finally returns to his beloved and they live happily
ever after. It’s a charming story and very appropriate for this lovely villa.

Evreti is a small traditional village just south of Fiskardo and one of the oldest in the Erissos
Peninsula of Kefalonia. Positioned just up the hill from the shoreline of Doliha Bay it has a rich
and colourful history, having been one of the most affluent villages of the area with an industry
of not only fishing but also farming. The village was home to many fishermen who used the bay
to moor their fishing boats. The other benefit of the location of Evreti was its vicinity to the local
fields and thus also developed into a thriving farming community.
Eleni is a three bedroom villa which has been sympathetically designed to blend in with the
surrounding scenery and taking full advantage of the beautiful views across the Ionian Sea to
Ithaka. Standing on the terrace at Villa Eleni you certainly get a feeling that the villa has been

VILLA KAMINI
A BEAUTIFUL VILLA IN A WONDERFUL SETTING OVERLOOKING
THE DRAMATIC WEST COAST
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Until the British occupiers in the 19th Century built the extraordinary road between the
mountains and the spectacular sea cliffs of the northwest coast of Kefalonia, the Erissos
peninsula was only accessible from Argostoli by sea or by an arduous journey on horseback.
The scattered, isolated settlements and villages such as Manganos, Vigli, even Fiskardo itself
maintained a way of life that had changed little since the arrival of the Venetians many centuries
earlier. The inhabitants always built in the elegant Venetian style, and even today echoes
of that graceful architectural heritage can often be found in newly built houses, such as the
Villa Kamini.
The setting, amongst olives and almond trees, and a vineyard in front is secluded, but the piece de
resistance is the view across a natural oak forest to the wide bay beyond, containing the awesome
headland of Assos and Cape Atheras, where recent archaeological discoveries have uncovered
strong historical evidence of links to the famous Odysseus.
KEFALONIA
Naturally the villa has been designed to maximize both the extraordinary setting and its stylish
Venetian heritage. Built on one level, the two bedroom villa has a master double with en suite
bathroom, and the twin bedroom with separate shower and toilet. The open plan dining/living
room is beautifully furnished and encorporates a fully fitted modern kitchen opening onto the
terrace overlooking the pool, colourful gardens and that stunning view. For those evenings at
home watching the sun set over the sea, there is an excellent barbecue and seating area perfect for
alfresco living.
A real sense of seclusion and privacy surrounds the villa, but the remoteness is just an atmosphere
these days as the cosmopolitan and welcoming harbour village of Fiskardo is only a ten minute
drive away, whilst the recently improved main highway based on the original road, though well out
of sight and sound provides quick and easy access to the island capital of Argostoli and the rest of
this uniquely varied island.

ALEXANDER’S HOUSE
4 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 8 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The road from Fiskardo rises steadily until it flattens out at the hilltop village of Manganos.
Once through the village it is lined with cypress and oak trees, concealing one of the finest
viewpoints in northern Kefalonia. Beyond the trees the land drops steeply into a wooded valley
broken only by the red rooftops of the small hamlet of Matsoukata with its old terraced fields.
Where the trees end the Ithaka Channel begins, framed by the island and the mountains of
Lefkada. Alexander’s House has been built on this very spot.
Such a setting deserves a house to match, and much care has been lavished on the design both
inside and out. Approached by a private drive with automatic gates, it is set on a broad raised
terrace surrounded by gardens, with every main window opening to the front and the view.
Even the infinity swimming pool enjoys the same view.
The main entrance is at the rear of the house leading into a large open plan living room with
separate dining area to the side. Large double French windows open onto the front terrace, and
the décor, fittings and furnishings have been carefully chosen to match the colours and texture of
the setting. There is a fully fitted kitchen and cloakroom at the rear. A hallway leads to bedrooms
on the ground floor, each with en suite bathroom and French windows opening onto the terrace.
The first floor master bedroom has double French windows at the front opening onto a balcony
overlooking the pool, with its own en suite bathroom and a large walk-in closet. The view from
the side window over unbroken woodland to the Adriatic beyond is equally attractive.
Between the pool and barbecue area lies a separate one bedroomed guest house, with living/
dining area, kitchenette, bathroom and first floor double bedroom.
Built with both care and flair for the extended family or a group of friends, words and pictures
cannot do justice to Alexander’s House.

A ROMANTIC VILLA FOR TWO IN ONE OF KEFALONIA’S MOST
PICTURESQUE VILLAGES
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Assos is the miniature jewel in the crown of Kefalonia’s stunning west coast. A cluster of
houses around a sheltered harbour, overlooked by a Venetian fortress on a high headland
and surrounded by magnificent cliffs, the village is a true haven, and the perfect setting for a
romantic getaway.
The newly built Villa Plori, located at the edge of the village with old vine terraces lining the
hillside above enjoys wonderful views out across the Adriatic. Comfortably furnished inside
with everything designed for carefree holiday living, it also boasts a private infinity pool on the
terrace outside, perfectly situated for combining a swim with that most relaxing of pastimes,
watching the ocean!
The village centre with its shady plateia, tavernas and mini-market, all next to the harbour and
its crescent of beach are a mere five minutes’ stroll away. For a more adventurous expedition in
superb surroundings can be made by following the original Venetian mule track that contours
up the mountain starting just above the villa.
KEFALONIA
Kefalonia is rapidly gaining a reputation as a honeymoon island. Whether for a first, second or
even third honeymoon, or just a peaceful break in lovely surroundings the Villa Plori should fit
the bill…perfectly!

ASSOS
VILLA PANORAMA
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Assos is a haven of tranquility in one of the most spectacular settings in the Ionian, and this
recently built villa, on the hillside above the harbour has been thoughtfully designed to make
the most of that setting.
The master double bedroom with en-suite and the comfortable living room are situated at
the front and open onto the paved terrace with its infinity pool. Inside or out the view across
the sheltered harbour to the wooded slopes of the peninsula fortress beyond is exceptional.
This villa certainly merits its name! A twin bedroom, also with en-suite bathroom and a wellequipped kitchen area complete the accommodation.
Behind the house a quiet lane leads in a few minutes down to the centre of the village with its
beachside plateia shaded by ancient plane trees, and waterfront tavernas. Nothing in Assos is
overstated; this is a traditional Ionian fishing village that has retained its charm.
The village lies at the heart of the spectacular cliffs of the west coast of Kefalonia, and in
Venetian times would have been a remote outpost accessible only by a steep mule trail winding
up the hillside. The trail itself starts just behind the village and a few minutes’ walk reveals one
of the most spectacular views in western Greece, and incredible sunsets!
Assos, despite its enviable end-of-the-world location is far from remote. The famous Myrtos
beach is only a twenty minute drive away and the picturesque port of Fiskardo and the
mountain villages of the Erissos peninsula are all easily explored by car.
A new, well-equipped and comfortable villa in the heart of an historic village in a magnificent
setting: ancient and modern at its very best!

3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS • CAR HIRE
Private houses in Assos are extremely rare to come by, we are fortunate to be able to offer
this lovely house with one of the most breathtaking views you can find anywhere in Greece.
Villa Pelagos stands on the south facing side of the narrow isthmus that links the village and the
Venetian fortress.
From the outside a bougainvillea covered archway leads into a welcoming living/dining room
and fitted kitchen. The charming double bedroom has an en suite shower, whilst the two twin
rooms share an additional shower room. The master bedroom, one of the twins and the living
room, all open onto a superb shaded terrace bordering a well-kept lawn, a most unusual feature
of this area and perfect for sunbathing.
KEFALONIA
The view is unbelievable, mountains, high cliffs, inaccessible bays running in a great sweep to
the south, all above a brilliant turquoise sea fringed with surf. It’s a view that is always changing,
as spectacular in the early morning, when the sun rises above the mountains, through to
the evening, when all the colours soften and at night when the sea glistens in the moonlight.
The village centre, with a number of restaurants, tavernas and a general store, is just a few
minutes walk down the road or a stepped lane. The walks up to Assos fortress and around the
peninsula are wonderful.

ASSOS
SEA PATH APARTMENTS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The Sea Path Apartments enjoy one of the most spectacular locations on Kefalonia. At its
narrowest point the Assos isthmus is just wide enough for a building and a narrow lane.
On one side a coastline of cliffs, caves and waves breaking in white foam on hidden reefs. On the
other side, pine woods and a hillside covered in flowers in spring and autumn, and provides the
perfect backdrop to the red rooftops of the tiny harbour.
The building itself, although modern, complements the older architecture. Located on
the ground floor are three two bedroom apartments each with its own terrace to enjoy the
amazing sea views. On the upper level there is a studio with a shaded terrace, looking out
over the sea and on this same level is the three bedroom apartment with no less than five
balconies facing in three directions and a fantastic top floor bedroom with a sun terrace.
The interiors are comfortable with a good standard of fittings and furniture. Kostas and Akrivi
scoured the antique markets of Athens for suitable ornaments. Akrivi is a talented artist and at
least one of her works hangs in each apartment. They are also a very musical family, their son
Miltiadies is a classical jazz musician of international repute.
Perhaps one of the main reasons that guests return here time after time is the family’s genuine
and spontaneous hospitality, which makes new and repeat guests feel immediately at home.
One could easily spend a whole fortnight on one of the balconies, just taking in the everchanging view, as many of our returning guests to the Sea Path can testify.

9 room family run pension
Situated on a narrow promontory beneath the Venetian fortress enjoying magnificent views,
is the small and extremely well-run Cavos Inn. Vasso, the owner, originally from Crete and
Vassilis, her Kefalonian husband have between them created something very special here.
With their perceptive eye for design, each room is tastefully furnished in different styles of
light fabrics.
All the rooms have a cosy feel with en suite facilities and private balcony or patio area.
Those on the south side seem to hang right over the waves, with a glorious sweep of cliff, sea
and mountains dominating the view, whilst the west facing rooms look directly across to the old
vine terraces and pine woods on the headland, crowned by the honeyed walls of the great castle.
To the left one looks out across the white cliffs and rolling hills of the Lixouri peninsula, whilst
to the right the eye is drawn down and across pantiled roofs to the harbour.
KEFALONIA
Five minutes down a stepped alley leads to the tree-lined plateia of Assos, surrounded by a
cluster of traditional fishing cottages, tavernas, village shops and the harbour nestling beneath
the caves, cliffs and old vine terraces of the headland. There is a town beach here, and even on
those afternoons when the Meltemi wind sets the surf pounding against the rocks just a few
yards away on the other side of the isthmus, barely a wave disturbs the fish queuing for crumbs
from the taverna tables.
42
The Cavos Inn reflects the unique aspect of Assos. The tranquillity of an unspoilt fishing
village,guarded by an historic castle, all set on a majestic wild coastline. Dolphins and on rare
occasions even turtles, can sometimes be seen in the surrounding sea, so a pair of binoculars
are recommended. The breakfast terrace has spectacular views that takes in the whole sweep
of this truly wild coast. For civilised living in an exquisite setting, the Cavos Inn is unbeatable.

Two or three centuries ago most visitors to Assos might not have relished the prospect of
their stay in these magnificent surroundings as they would have arrived in chains and been
incarcerated in the remote Venetian fortress and prison! Today’s visitors now have the
opportunity of a holiday in one of the most spectacular and peaceful situations in the Ionian
Islands. The small fishing village clustered round a sheltered harbour is a haven that brings
people back time and time again.
Cosi’s Inn, situated just above the harbour with superb views on both sides is an excellent
example of the small but very welcoming apartments that is certainly one of the hallmarks of
Kefalonia. It’s only a couple of minutes’ stroll from the Inn down to the harbour with its fishing
boats, handy tavernas and mini-market. There’s even a lovely beach within the harbour a step or
two away from the shady village square with its magnificent plane trees.

2 BEDROOM APARTMENT • SLEEPS 2 – 3 • CAR HIRE
Even in the 21st Century life in a small, unspoilt Kefalonian village revolves around the Plateia,
and the village square in Assos also happens to enjoy one of the most spectacular situations in
the Ionian, facing a Venetian fortress, beside a sheltered harbour enclosed by ancient terraced
hillsides and rocky headlands. Sofia’s cottage located beside the Plateia opens out directly onto
the waterfront, with a beach no more than a few steps away.
Sofia is a typical small, traditional fisherman’s cottage, simply furnished but comfortable and
has the benefit of a large covered verandah looking directly across the harbour to the fortress
on the headland beyond. The beach might be only five metres away, but you will have to walk
at least ten to reach the Plateia with its magnificent plane trees and perhaps double that for a
choice of tavernas and the min-market.

Assos itself feels very secluded but is by no means remote. It is only a 20 minute drive to the
world famous Myrtos Beach. Good roads now criss-cross the island making exploration by car
very straightforward, but there are also some fascinating and spectacular walks nearby on mule
trails built many hundreds of years ago.
However, it would be completely understandable if you made Sofia’s verandah your permanent
base!

AI HELI
VILLA MARINA
5 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 10 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Too often the choice of where to go for a family holiday can mean a lengthy “either/or “ discussion
and eventually a compromise: the kids want a beach nearby, preferably with watersports
available, perhaps even live music and dancing, whilst mum and dad are looking for some peace
and quiet, a nice view and enough space so that no-one’s falling over each other in cramped
accommodation. The Villa Marina could well provide the perfect solution!
This large five bedroomed villa with four shower/bathrooms has room to spare for everyone.
Even better, especially if there are teenagers in the family (or grandparents!), two of the
bedrooms and a bathroom have their own separate staircase. There are at least five beaches
within easy reach, either on foot or by a few minutes’ in the car, the nearest being just 100
metres away! And if that’s too far the house has its own private pool surrounded by lawns.
A large family needs good shopping nearby and Argostoli, the island capital ten minutes’
drive away has shops for every taste, from a colourful array of fruit and vegetable stalls on the
waterfront, to well stocked supermarkets. Add traffic free streets with designer boutiques,
smart cafés, gift shops, cinemas showing the latest Hollywood blockbusters and an excellent
museum and there’s something for everyone. Nearby Lassi and Makros Giali are bustling
resorts next to excellent beaches, whilst the village of Svoronata is just 2kms away, or even
closer, a min-market and tavern within 250 metres. If a more adventurous day out is required,
the ascent of Mt Ainos, the Ionian’s highest peak is a superb expedition by car and then on foot.
Staying at home with a good book in the cool, spacious open plan living and dining room with
fully fitted kitchen is an attractive alternative, or later, out on the terrace in the cool of the evening
watching the sun set over the Adriatic whilst fresh souvlakia (kebabs) grill on the barbecue and a
bottle of the famous Robola wine chills in the fridge.

KOURKOMELATA
VILLA FEINIKAS
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The small hillside village of Kourkomelata has seen little development for over 50 years.
Surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, the village is characterized by its elegant villas
surrounded by large gardens. The Villa Feinikas is a classic example of the kind. Approached
via a private driveway off the street, the house, surrounded by landscaped gardens (with lawns
of what must be the softest grass on the island!) and a line of impressive palm trees that give it
its name, enjoys one of the best views in southern Kefalonia. To the south beyond the belltower
of the village church the green hills of Zakynthos rise out of the Adriatic and behind the western
slopes of Mt Ainos.
The interior of the villa is equally elegant with period furniture, cool spacious living and main
bedrooms all laid out on one level. Behind the fully fitted kitchen is a separate bedroom and
shower. French doors open onto a covered terrace running round two sides of the house,
overlooking a vine covered pergola, the wide sweep of the lawns to the coast. A feature of this
terrace is the large period wooden table, perfect for al fresco dining. The elegant design of both
house and garden even extends to the swimming pool, built in the shape of a cloverleaf.

KALIGATA
VILLA DINA
AN ATTRACTIVE VILLA IN AN IDYLLIC SETTING
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL• AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Kaligata is a small hamlet close to Metaxata the village where the poet and hero of Greece’s
struggle for independence Byron lived and stayed for six months before his last, fateful journey
to the mainland. He chose well, because the views across cypress and olive groves to the wide
Adriatic beyond would have given him the inspiration for his poetry and the tranquility before
the hard road ahead.
KEFALONIA
Two centuries on and of course there have been changes, this delightful, modern villa being
one of them. Surrounded by the colourful gardens for which the hamlet is famous Villa Dina is
a perfect holiday retreat. Naturally there is one important addition that Byron would not have
experienced, a private pool on the front terrace of the house! Magnificent sunsets are a speciality
of Kefalonia’s west coast and there is a separate BBQ area from which to appreciate them.
48
The villa is a short drive from some of the finest beaches on the island, Skala to the south or
the smaller and quieter beaches such as Avithos. A trip to the island’s highest mountain Mt
Ainos, home not only to the monastery of Kefalonia’s patron saint, Agios Gerasimos but also
the vineyards where the famous Robola wine is made should not be missed. There’s history
with a British connection nearby in the well preserved ruins of St George’s castle. For everyday
supplies there are mini-markets a few minutes’ drive away. Also easily reached is Argostoli
with its pleasant pedestrianized streets, excellent and varied shops, cafes and restaurants, a
long harbour frontage lined with fresh fruit and vegetable stalls where fresh fish can be bought
straight off the boat.

Homer accurately described Ithaka as
“rocky and unfit for horses but good
for goats”! A single road connects the
island capital Vathy, with its sheltered
fjord-like deep- water harbour giving
the town its name, to a scattering of
villages in the north such as Stavros
and Kioni passing beneath the ancient
monastery of Kathara, its bell tower a
landmark from many miles away
Vathy is a thriving port where the
visitor is made to feel very much part
of the community. Small hotels and
apartments share the narrow streets
with homes, shops and tavernas
that have been in the same family
for generations. Kioni, set on an
idyllic bay, and like its slightly larger
counterpart on Kefalonia, Fiskardo,
was spared the destruction of the
great 1953 earthquake, so that the
elegant Venetian houses remain
largely intact.
Scholars continue to argue over
whether the Ithaka of The Odyssey
existed here, but undoubtedly the
island has a unique atmosphere and
lends itself to quiet discovery, whether
along ancient paths to its pebbled
coves, the Mycenian ruins or merely
to absorb that other Ithaka, an island
of the imagination and the poet.
Whether you stay for one week or the
rest of your life you may absorb these
lines by the famous poet C P Kavafy:
“Ithaka gave you a marvellous
journey, without her you would
never have set out. Wise you have
become and full of experience.
Now you will understand what
these Ithakas mean.”
ITHAKA
Marmakas
Afales Bay
There are two Ithakas; a small Ionian
Island, two mountains joined by
a craggy ridge, rugged in the west,
gentle and more fertile in the east
where the shoreline is indented by
numerous coves and sheltered bays
where it’s said a million olive trees
of a type unique to the island grow.
Only 3,000 Ithakians live here but
many more can be found living as
far away as New York, Cape Town
and Melbourne. Like their famous
ancestor Odysseus they are a
seafaring people and even today many
a merchant ship or ferry is crewed by
seamen from the island.

It’s said that there are one hundred wells in the broad valley known locally as Campos that rises
gently behind Vathy until it meets the steeper wooded slopes of the surrounding Marathias
plateau. Certainly this is the most fertile area on the island, producing some of the finest wines
and olive oils.
Agrambeli
ITHAKA
Set in lovely gardens, amongst olive trees and vineyards, these three villas, although recently
built out of local stone, with bougainvillea, clematis and vines covering the walls, blend so well
into the surrounding landscape that they seem much older. That same theme is maintained
inside each house. Contemporary fittings and furnishings have been chosen to complement
older pieces of craftsman made family furniture. The living/dining rooms are open plan, each
with a well-equipped modern kitchen. The bedrooms all have air conditioning with windows
either looking out over the gardens to the sea or across the vineyards towards the hills. The
gardens provide each house with complete privacy but all enjoy one of the finest views on
the island, out across the Inner Ionian Sea to the mountains of the mainland. Built on raised
terraces fringed by trees, each with its own swimming pool and barbecue, there is always a
choice between sunshine and shade.
52
This is one of the most peaceful areas of Ithaka, yet the main square on the waterfront in Vathy
is only five minutes’ away by car along a quiet country road. This same road winds up the hillside
to the plateau above, and one of the most far-reaching views of the island together with many of
the sites mentioned in The Odyssey can be explored, Afroditi’s Spring, the Cave of Eumaios, and
the spectacular crag of Korak (the Crow). Another lane nearby, driveable part way, leads to the
picturesque and very quiet Caminia beach.
Away from it all yet close to all amenities is a winning combination. Perfection!

2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Villa Porto Bello is a contemporary property built in a traditional island style on the edge of
Vathy’s coastal road with spectacular views of the harbour and the town. The villa is perfectly
located on a narrow, traditional alley which runs parallel to the waterfront. It’s just a 10 minute
leisurely stroll along the harbour to the plateia, the hub of this charming port where visitors and
locals gather to enjoy a meal or a drink in the long summer evenings.
This delightful new two bedroom villa with a private pool has both a double and a twin bedroom
both are en-suite. The living area and fully fitted kitchen are open plan all tastefully decorated
and fitted with all the modern facilities one would expect from a new villa. Patio doors from all
the rooms lead out to a large terrace with dining table, the barbecue and the pool with delightful
views towards the port. Almost all the terrace is shaded and around the pool sun loungers are
available facing the port and the town.
Villa Porto Bello is perfectly placed for discovering the south of the island. The small beach at
Loutsa, still guarded by the Venetian cannons on the headland above, is a flat stroll of less than
10 minutes. For the more energetic the old hill village of Paleochori with its frescoed churches
and chapels and the Homeric sites of Arethusa’s Spring are all accessible by well marked trails.

VILLA LEFKI
A CHARMING VILLA WITH DELIGHTFUL VIEWS
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The present occupier of that other ‘White House’ may never get an opportunity to stay in
this superbly appointed villa, which is a shame because the views of the Kefalonia coastline
which can be seen through the beautiful cypress trees with the forests and mountains of
Kefalonia as well as the sunsets would undoubtedly lift the spirits and allow the cares of the
world to drift away.
By carefully combining the use of traditional stone and wood with the latest in contemporary
fixtures and fittings, the Villa Lefki is the perfect holiday home from home. Lefki village,
a straggle of houses perched between mountain and sea has a distinguished history out of
all proportion to its diminutive size. During the last war it was used as a staging post for
escaping allied prisoners. The inhabitants took huge risks to hide the escapees until such time
as their onward journeys to safety could be arranged. In recognition of their sacrifice the British
Government funded the rebuilding of the village after the great Earthquake of 1953.
ITHAKA
The echoes of war are thankfully very faint now. What remains is an ideal base for a good all
round holiday. One of Ithaka’s finest beaches at Agios Ioannis is a mere 10 minute drive away.
Old mule tracks criss-cross fertile olive and citrus groves, passing ancient cisterns and wells.
Stavros the main centre of northern Ithaka with its shops, tavernas and bakery is ten minutes
away by car whilst Vathy is only a little further away in the other direction along a good road that
follows the spectacular spine of the island.
58
The interior of the house, with its spacious master bedroom, double bed and en suite shower
room, is complemented by an open plan lounge/dining room and a fully fitted kitchen.
The accommodation also includes a twin-bedded room with separate shower and toilet.
Outside you will find a spacious terrace with a good sized pool for those lazy summer days.

As you head gently up the hillside and turn into the sweeping driveway you arrive at these
three charming villas one can’t help but be delighted by the landscape that surrounds you,
nestling in the hillside these delightful villas overlook the picturesque and sheltered Polis Bay.
They offer extensive sea views towards the stunning island of Kefalonia. From this slightly
elevated position the panorama is exceptional and is shared equally by all three houses. The
first, Rhodia – Pomegranate, is a one bedroom house and Elia – Olive and Lemonia – Lemon,
both two bedroom.
Each villa is fully air-conditioned and finished to a high standard, tastefully furnished and well
equipped throughout. All three are similar open plan design with the fully fitted kitchen/diner
opening into a comfortable and stylish living area. Double doors from the living area take you
out onto the terrace making the most of the exceptional sea views, bringing in sunshine, light
and taking full advantage of the gentle scented sea breezes in the afternoon. Outdoor Jacuzzis
on each house’s terrace complete the wonderfully relaxing atmosphere of these fabulous villas
adding superbly to your very own Greek Odyssey. The bedrooms are light and airy with French
windows making the most of the wonderful views each with en-suite shower rooms.
A private footpath takes you directly from the villas to the beach which is separated into two
parts by a small jetty and the local fishermans’ harbour. There is a “cantina” serving light snacks
and drinks throughout the day (in high season only). Sunbeds and umbrellas are available to
rent on the beach. A little further uphill, within walking distance of the villas is the traditional
village of Stavros with popular tavernas, cashpoint, pharmacy as well as shops, bars and cafes.

On Ithaka everything has its place. Even mighty Odysseus has to take his turn in everyday

favourite port of call for any cruising yachtsman, whilst every morning the fishing boats thread
their way past the mooring lines and anchor chains. Climb the hill above the village to the
hamlet of Raki and farming takes pride of place.
All this gives the island its unique atmosphere. This villa, built into the steep hillside at the
top of the village, has been sensitively designed to blend in with the older houses around. The
view from the verandah’ and pool terraces is suitably spectacular, out across the sea to Arkoudi
Island and the White Mountains of Lefkada.
The villa is certainly an excellent match for the view. By carefully combining the use of
traditional stone and wood with the latest in contemporary fixtures and fittings, Villa Marina is

KIONI
RIGONI APARTMENTS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 3 • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
For centuries Kioni was a thriving fishing village and port that served the then large mountain
village of Anoghi, built high on a plateau beneath Ithaka’s highest mountain Neritos, by a
packhorse trail that led up through the forested hillside behind. Fishing boats and caiques
waiting to load grain, olive oil and wine from the interior, would have filled this exquisite small
harbour. Nowadays fishing boats are still present but they share their moorings with visiting
yachts and the caiques carrying people not goods.
The Rigoni are five apartments in total but we have opted to use the three one bedroom
apartments located on the first and second floors. The stunning views take in three old
windmills on the far side of Kioni bay and beyond to the island of Atakos.
A central open staircase leads up to two double bedded apartments on the first floor each with a
large terrace to the side, a further twin bedded apartment on the second floor. The living rooms
are comfortably furnished with balconies to the front. The kitchen areas are well equipped and
brightly painted. The bedrooms, either with twin or double beds, have their own balconies with
sea views.

APARTMENTS •SLEEPS 2 – 3 •AIR CONDITIONING • SHARED SWIMMING POOL •CAR HIRE
The spectacular north east coast of Ithaka is dotted with captivating small bays and inlets.
Amongst these is the picturesque and unspoilt village of Kioni. It encapsulates everything
that makes the Ionian Islands so special; history architecture and above all an outstandingly
beautiful location. Striking old elegant houses are characteristic here, connected by a myriad
of narrow alleyways and paths all leading to the enchanting waterfront with its colourful mix of
fishing boats, yachts, local shops and tavernas.
Likoudis Apartments are situated in Kioni and in our opinion it’s probably one of the most
stunning locations this beautiful island has to offer. Nestled on a verdant hill that overlooks the
delightful bay, the apartments although modern, have been designed in stone and wood as the
prevailing features which complement the older more traditional surrounding architecture.
The interiors have been tastefully decorated with elegant wood furniture, iron made beds and
fine marble tables, built-in sofas covered by subtle pastel fabrics creating both an inviting and
relaxing environment.
ITHAKA
Unusual for Kioni properties, there is a good-sized swimming pool set on a raised terrace
overlooking the bay. Sun loungers and plenty of dappled shade make it the perfect spot for that
relaxing siesta. A 10 minute stroll down the lane leads to the waterfront with its tavernas, cafes
and well stocked mini market. We have also included a car which will allow you to explore this
beautiful island at your leisure.

Ithaka provides the authentic experience of Greece. Likoudis Apartments offers you a perfect
opportunity to completely unwind in fantastic surroundings.

KIONI
ELENI APARTMENTS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 3 • AIR CONDITIONING • SHARED POOL WITH LIKOUDIS APTS • CAR HIRE
Kioni has one of the most picturesque settings in the Ionian, and these apartments have
been designed to make the most of the view, not only of the village itself but also out and
across the inner Ionian Sea dotted with wooded islands and the mainland mountains beyond.
Each apartment or studio has its own terrace facing the sea, perfect for watching the gentle
activity below as the yachts and fishing boats come and go.
The ground floor studio is comfortable with a kitchenette, shower room and twin beds with
French windows that open onto a terrace. There are also four comfortable one bedroom
apartments, each with a living room and kitchen area, shower room and toilet. Each bedroom
has either windows or French doors opening towards the sea. The bedrooms and living
areas are all air conditioned, but open the windows on a summer evening when a cool breeze
wafts up from the harbour and fills the rooms with the scent of jasmine and lemon blossom.
Twin apartments are on first floor whereas the double apartments are on second floor.
A stroll down the lane shaded by olive trees and bougainvillea leads to the waterfront with its
tavernas, cafes and well stocked mini-market. Further narrow lanes, originally built for mules
wind their way through the cluster of traditional houses, some leading to tiny beaches hidden
from above. For the more energetic Kioni is the perfect start and finish point for a network
of ancient paths built in Venetian times that connected this historic village port with the
settlements in Ithaka’s mountainous interior. Many are well marked, but getting lost amongst
the cool olive groves and oak woodland can be a real pleasure especially as every gap in the trees
will reveal the harbour and bays below!

dining room with a separate kitchen and access to terraces with the same stunning views.
A couple of tiny pebbled coves are within a minutes’ stroll, perfect for an early morning dip.
There are further beaches within easy access down a charming lane, shaded by olive, plum

fascinating coastline and for those who prefer walking there are well-marked trails through

NEAR KIONI
VILLA JOANNA
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
On Ithaka everything has its place. Even mighty Odysseus has to take his turn in everyday
life! Kioni is a perfect example. Elegant houses and tavernas line a beautiful small harbour, a
favourite port of call for any cruising yachtsman but every morning the fishing boats thread
their way past the mooring lines and anchor chains because Kioni fishes. Climb the hill above
the village to the hamlet of Raki and farming takes pride of place. The land is rich up here, good
for olives, vines and sheep for the feta cheese. All this gives the island its unique atmosphere,
and these two new villas built into the steep hillside at the top of the village have been sensitively
designed to blend in with the older houses around.
Approached by a narrow track where the speed limit is dictated by the hens pecking on the
verge, steps lead down from the parking place to the villas. The view from the verandahs
and pool terraces is suitably spectacular, out across the sea to Arkoudi Island and the White
Mountains of Lefkada.
The interior of this lovely villa, built into the steep hill on two levels matches the views across the
Akrotiri peninsula with its sentinel ruined windmill to the mountains of Lefkas and the smaller
islands of the Ionian Sea.
The living room and kitchen has double French windows leading to a large balcony. Also on this
floor there is a double bedroom with a French window to the side. Stairs lead down to the lower
ground floor and two more bedrooms. Local stone has been used imaginatively in the luxurious
main double bedroom with its integral bathroom, a separate toilet and a dressing room. French
windows open out onto a spacious terrace. The second twin bedroom has an en suite bathroom,
again with French windows opening out to the shaded verandah overlooking the private
swimming pool.

and a comfortable living room. There are two spacious bedrooms, one double and one twin.
Both bedrooms with en suite shower rooms with doors which lead out onto patio/terrace.
The bedrooms both with ceiling fans are situated on either side of the living area.
It is undoubtedly the outside space that is the main attraction of this lovely house. Being so close
to the sea every aspect of the accommodation is based around the magnificent views. To the
side and in front of the house there are both shaded and open patio areas where you can sit and
relax with a good book a cold drink or simply gaze out at the yachts as they gently come and go.
Below the house within a few minutes walk down some steps, is a small secluded pebble
perfect for taking a dip in crystal clear waters perhaps just before breakfast or to cool off at the
end of the day.

VATHY
PERANTZADA 1811 ART HOTEL
20 ROOM BOUTIQUE HOTEL • ROOMS SLEEP 2 – 4 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING
The early years of the 19th century were turbulent times throughout Europe, particularly
for a Greek nation struggling for independence. Yet during this period Ithaka enjoyed an
unparalleled prosperity, due in part to the initiative and imagination of its largely seafaring
population. Ithakian vessels with Ithakan crews were sailing throughout the Adriatic and into
the Black Sea, developing trade even as far as the upper reaches of the Danube. This new found
wealth was used to build elegant neo classical houses around the wonderful natural harbour of
Vathy, the island’s capital.
Nearly two hundred years later many of the elegant town houses have survived, albeit damaged
in the great earthquake of 1953. The Perantzada Hotel was one of these and has recently been
completely renovated and modernised to provide a stylish and supremely comfortable small
hotel. The exterior, whilst maintaining the classical tradition has been painted blue to reflect
the colour of both the Ionian sea and sky, a theme repeated inside with the addition of a brilliant
white to set off the modern sculpture and murals that are a fascinating feature of the hotel.
The accommodation is spread over two buildings with swimming pool, all sharing the same
superb view, designed for ultimate relaxation. All the rooms are extremely comfortable and the
upper ones enjoy a view from their private balconies across the tiled roofs to the harbour which
seems delightfully exclusive. As for the breakfasts, with their choice of traditional home made
cakes and pastries, no more need be said other than that the locals can often be found here!
The hotel is located on a narrow, traditional alley which runs parallel to the waterfront and
although quiet, it is just five minutes’ leisurely stroll along the harbour to the plateia, the hub
of this charming port where visitors and locals gather to enjoy a meal or a drink in the long
summer evenings.

Exploring the island by car not
only makes discovery of its secret
corners easy, it also opens up the
equally beautiful mainland coastal
mountains and the “inland sea” of the
Ambracian Gulf. If the sea beckons,
boats can be hired to discover the
many sheltered coves on the south
coast or board a Caique for a trip
along the wild west coast with its
towering cliffs, beaches of dazzling
white sand, accessible only from
the sea, some with names such as
Sappho’s Leap straight out of ancient
mythology.
To sit on an empty beach on this
fascinating island as the sun sinks
gently towards the western horizon,
towering white cliffs glowing pink
and the sea turning from turquoise to
deep blue, must surely be one of life’s
most memorable experiences.
Fishing off Lefkada Town
LEFKADA
•Preveza
An island only since the 6th Century
BC when a canal was dug across
the low isthmus connecting it to the
mainland, Lefkada has its own unique
atmosphere, due to its landscape,
inhabitants and the influence of the
many different cultures that have
established themselves over the
centuries. The result is an island
that offers the visitor so many
opportunities for a memorable
holiday. Whether it’s a walk through
the lentil fields of a hidden mountain
valley in the interior, still cultivated
and harvested by hand, enjoying some
of the world’s best windsurfing in
Vasiliki or simply relaxing on a pool
side terrace taking in one of a hundred
stunning views, there is something for
everyone on Lefkada.

Lefkada’s south coast, sheltered by high mountains is broken up by a string of bays and inlets
that are almost Scottish in appearance, except the sun actually shines here and there are no
midges! Mikros Gialos is perhaps one of the most picturesque and unspoilt of these “strings of
pearls”, a traditional Lefkadan seaside village at the head of the bay complete with a gem of a
beach. Striking old houses are characteristic here, connected by a myriad of narrow alleyways
and paths leading to the local shops and tavernas serving appetizing traditional Greek cuisine.
The apartments themselves combine this spectacular setting with simple comfortable
accommodation. Newly built, there is a selection of studios or one-bedroom apartments.
The latter have double or twin beds with a shower room, living room with a sofa bed leading
onto the balcony. The studios are spacious and have double or twin beds, shower room and their
own balcony. The design of these apartments ensures that each apartment is bright and airy,
creating a cool comfortable living space with panoramic views across the Inner Ionian Sea to
Kefalonia, Ithaka and a host of smaller islands.

There is a good-sized swimming pool set on a raised terrace overlooking the bay. Sun loungers

The island of Lefkada has so much to offer and is an ideal holiday destination for everyone.
Crystal clear turquoise waters, magnificent mountains and verdant countryside combined
with a variety of activities as well as a vast array of restaurants both modern and traditional
guarantee there is something for everyone, young and old for those seeking a relaxing summer
break or a more active getaway, Lefkada is the island that has it all.
Villa Thalassa
Villas Votsalo and Akrogiali stand next door to each other as do Villas Thalassa and Flisvos, all
are located on a steep hillside overlooking the sea. Bright flowers and shrubs soften the natural
rocky terracing and slopes, which, combined with the surrounding olive groves create colourful
scene descending into the deep blue sea. Quite breathtaking!
LEFKADA
The swimming pools are in a sunny position beside the villas, with sun loungers on the patio
and a gentle natural shade provided by the adjacent olive and lemon trees and is such a pleasant
place to relax and enjoy a good book or simply watching the yachts and boats on the bay.
Al fresco living is a priority on the islands so the large barbecue area is going to be a favourite
dining place.
74
The sea views from here are quite outstanding. Overlooking the picturesque bay of Desimi on
the eastern coast of Lefkada reaching out as far as the islands of Meganisi, Thilia and to the
mountains of mainland Greece beyond. One cannot help but be mesmerized by the patterns
made on the water as boats and yachts pass through the bay. It is certainly worth waking early
and taking breakfast al fresco to catch the sun as she rises magnificently over the mountains,
spreading its light and warmth out to the mirror like sea below you.
NB: Access to villas is via an unmade road. Villas Votsalo and Akrogiali are located further up
the hill and due to the numerous steps may not be suitable for people with mobility difficulties.

VILLA VRAHOS
4 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 8 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Vlichos or Tranquillity Bay in English, is renowned, not just as a safe haven for yachts, but also
for its fjord-like beauty, but the best location for appreciating its setting is to climb the lower
slopes of the mountain behind the village of Peragiali from where the bay forms the picturesque
foreground to a stunning panorama of the islands of the inner Ionian Sea. This is a view for all
hours of the day and night. The obvious solution is a stay at the beautifully situated Villa of The
Rock, Villa Vrahos.
This side of Lefkada is blessed with plentiful water from the many springs and streams that flow
from the mountains, and the presence of this water, such a precious commodity on the islands
to the south, has been used to create an outstanding garden surrounding the villa. Natural
rocks, lawns and flowerbeds full of native aromatic shrubs combined with the traditional stone
construction of the house, make this a villa equal to its stunning location.
Stone steps curve up to a large covered verandah, where comfortable sofa and chairs are
perfectly positioned for appreciating the view with access to the roomy open plan living/
dining room with its timbered ceiling and wooden floors, full height windows and double doors
overlooking the swimming pool, pan tiled roofs of the village and the wooded hills beyond.
There is a modern fully equipped kitchen and four bedrooms, a master double bedroom with en
suite bath, another double, two twin-bedded rooms and a family bathroom.

Situated on the lower slopes of the protective mountains that rise steeply above the sheltered
inlet of Vlichos Bay, this well-appointed villa enjoys one of the most spectacular views in
Lefkada. It looks out over the rooftops of Nidri and the village of Perigiali and the bay past, what
was, Onassis’s sanctuary island of Skorpios, to Meganisi and Kalamos and the smaller islands
dotted across the Inner Ionian Sea.
With such a view, no expense has been spared in the design and layout of the villa. Set in a
landscaped garden, with mature trees, lawns and flower beds, virtually every room shares the
same spectacular outlook. The private swimming pool is situated next to one side of the house,
whilst open steps lead up in front to the main entrance on the first floor. The spacious living/
dining area furnished in a contemporary style has picture windows looking out over the bay
opening into an equally well laid out and fully equipped kitchen. A striking atrium-like staircase
leads up to the first floor with its three stylish bedrooms, two with their own balconies to the
front. The master double bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with Jacuzzi, the second double
bedroom and a twin-bedded room both have en suite showers.
Perigiali translates as “Above the Beach”, and this villa is situated even higher, with the
advantage of an idyllic location but close to all the amenities of nearby Nidri, a bustling
resort, yacht haven and ferry port. For the energetic members of the party, a wide selection of
watersports is available in the vicinity, and numerous trails lead up ravines into the mountains.
However if you should feel a slight twinge of guilt by relaxing by the pool or in the gardens, fear
not, the solution is close at hand with a fitness room situated on the ground floor of the villa,
including a pool table!
Quite simply, Villa Almyra has everything the discerning visitor might require, comfortable,
contemporary interior, landscaped gardens and one of the finest situations in The Ionian.

KALAMITSI
VILLA APOMERA
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 5 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Apomera is the Greek for solitude, an appropriate name for this villa situated between sea and
mountain on Lefkada’s magnificent West coast. Set in olive groves and cypress woods, but by
no means remote and is located near the unspoilt hill village of Kalamitsi, it is also close to the
picturesque resort of Agios Nikitas and the magnificent beach of Kathisma.
Greece is famous for the clarity and colours of its sea and landscapes, from the villa’s balconies
and terraces you must be able to see more shades of blue than anywhere on the rest of the
planet. Out to sea there is nothing except a thin line in the far distance where sky and ocean
meet, whilst towards the North beyond the ridge, green Paxos, fringed by white cliffs and the
mountains of the Pindos range, break the horizon bringing together the sensational sunsets.
Planted terraces and traditional walls line the approach and a small terrace area surrounds
the back. Immediately in front is a broad stone-flagged terrace, raised above the hillside and
swimming pool. A modern version of the traditional “fournos” or oven with barbecue is located
to one side. A shaded verandah runs along the whole of the front of the house giving access to a
large living room with fireplace, comfortable furniture, satellite television and a single sofa bed.
The kitchen is well equipped and there is a downstairs shower room. Upstairs is a double and a

Lefkada is an island of contrasts. Rugged mountains, tranquil bays, rich farmland, spectacular

Situated on a wooded hillside above the small fishing village of Ligia near Lefkada Town, these
two bedroomed villas look out over olive trees to the Inner Ionian Sea and the old fortress of
St George on the mainland. Apart from their beautiful location, they are perfectly placed for
exploring the whole island with the added advantage of close proximity to the island capital with
its unique old houses, built out of timber and corrugated iron to withstand earthquakes. From
here it is only a short drive across the famous canal to the mainland and the hills of the Epiros
Coast. This part of Lefkada also has a network of old so leaving the car at home for pleasant
strolls through olive groves and fields is yet another option.

LET THE QUIET BEAUTY OF MEGANISI GENTLY WASH
AWAY THE CARES OF THE WORLD
Spartohori
MEGANISI
Meganisi, “The great island” in Greek
is actually one of the smallest, unless
greatness here refers to its beauty and
tranquility. This is the true Greece,
found a few nautical miles away from
the bustle of Lefkada’s main resort
Nidri. Those who are lucky enough
to stay on the island even have two
churches at each entrance to the
harbor of Vathi to bless their coming
and going.
88
Naturally an island of such rare
beauty has figured in mythology
when Tafios a son of Poseidon made
the wise decision to build a city and
palace here, and later Odysseus
generously gave his fleet to Mentor
a later king. There has been little
change since then, a few new villas
sensitively built in traditional style, a
comfortable and welcoming hotel and
excellent tavernas and minimarkets
near the harbour; apart from these
Meganisi is a haven for walking along
virtually traffic-free lanes, coming
upon hidden coves and quiet beaches
or finding a shady glade amongst the
olives to while away a hot afternoon,
the silence broken only by the sound
of goat bells across the valley and a
view of a white sail on an azure sea.
An equally enjoyable way of exploring
the island is to take the ferry back
to Nidri and then choose one of
the many excursion boats that
circumnavigate both Meganisi and
the island of Skorpios. The rugged
coast is home to numerous large caves
some big enough to sail into, and
lonely beaches accessible only from
the sea.
It is an extraordinary thought that
this tiny oasis of peace and solitude
can be reached from the rush and
noise of our English metropolis in
just a few hours, and because the
available accommodation is so limited
it will never become overrun by mass
tourism. If your idea of the perfect
holiday is freedom from stress,
beautiful surroundings, a friendly
truly Ionian welcome and sheer
relaxation then the “little big island”
has to be the number one choice.

Meganisi is not only one of the smallest, least developed and most beautiful islands in the
Ionian, but is rapidly gaining a reputation as the friendliest. Nowhere is this better illustrated
than at the delightful Sgouri Villas. The beautiful setting amongst the olives on a hillside
overlooking Vathi harbour allows for magnificent views across to the island of Skorpios, the
mountains of Lefkada and the tiny sheltered port of Vathi.

open plan living and dining room with a corner fireplace and fully equipped kitchen. Each villa
has two terraces, one at the front and one at the rear to make the most of al fresco living and
soaking up the island atmosphere. Each swimming pool and sun terrace are located on either
side of the buildings complete with a barbecue area. The splendid gardens surrounding the
villas blend into the natural environment, yet what makes them so outstanding is the genuine
friendliness of the owners, Panos and Eleni.

watching the fishing boats come and go into Vathi harbour and contemplating lunch at one of
the traditional waterfront tavernas.

HOTEL MEGANISI
COMFORTABLE AND HOSPITABLE FAMILY RUN HOTEL

ROOMS SLEEPS 1 – 3 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • BREAKFAST • AIR CONDITIONING
Katomeri, where the hotel is situated, has a few tavernas where the chances are that a visitor
will be offered a glass of ouzo and perhaps a game of cards. The only other village on the main
road (a misnomer if ever there was one!) is Spartohori, an immaculate small settlement of
whitewashed houses half buried in a riot of bougainvillea and jasmine, with outstanding views
across to Lefkada and Skorpios.
The Hotel Meganisi is run by the charming Dimitris and Christina Politis with the help of
their sons and daughters-in-law, complementing the spirit of the island perfectly. Attractively
designed in a traditional style, the guest bedrooms are simple but comfortable. All have
air conditioning, en suite shower rooms and balconies/terraces with lovely views over the
surrounding countryside, the superior rooms benefit from terraces. A meal in the hotel
dining room is always a memorable occasion, with delicious local dishes lovingly prepared by
Christina.
MEGANISI
Other tavernas can be found near the quay in Vathi, just one kilometre away and the nearest
beach is about thirty minutes walk from the hotel. For those seeking to work up an appetite
there are wonderful walking opportunities throughout the island. For the truly energetic
footpaths, rough in places, extends down the middle of the narrow spine of land to the southeast.
Any aches and pains from the walk can be soothed away in the hotel’s swimming pool.

The hardest decision of a holiday at the Hotel Meganisi might well be to tear yourself away from
this haven in time for your return flight home!

Meganisi is truly one of the most beautiful, undeveloped and traditional islands in the Ionian.
With crystal clear azure waters, peaceful, often deserted beaches and taverna owners whose
attitude to ‘philoxenia’ (friendliness to strangers) surpasses any on other islands.
Accommodation
2 three bedroom villas each with a private
swimming pool. Both villas have a similar layout
•Private swimming pool: 8m x 4m
(depth 1.4m – 1.9m)
•Maid service on arrivals day and midweek
Villa Daphne and Villa Myrto are hilltop villas built in one of the most beautiful locations on
the island of Meganisi. Close to the hillside village of Katomeri (fifteen minutes walk) with its
numerous tavernas, the villas are not far from one of the most beautiful beaches on the island,
Limonari. These two villas were built next to a small chapel, Ai Lias, by Tassos and Anthi
whose grandfather Epaminondas the local priest, doctor and teacher, on the same land had a
threshing floor which was in use for wheat and barley until 1970. Tassos named the villas after
his children, Daphne and Myrto.
With a similar layout and separated, the villas are exquisitely furnished and almost unique on
the island for their quality. Built over two floors, each villa has a twin bedroom upstairs with
en suite shower room opening to a large roof terrace. The spacious ground floor consists of an
open plan living area with dining and a well equipped kitchen and also two bedrooms a double
and a twin and a separate bathroom. The outside space is spectacular with shaded terraces,
a barbecue, spacious pool terraces and an extraordinary never ending view, that comes to
life at nightfall. The calmness and relaxation one can experience from these villas and their
surroundings are second to none.

A THREE BEDROOMED FAMILY VILLA ON A HILLSIDE WITH
OUTSTANDING VIEWS
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
The small island of Meganisi has all the best attributes of the Ionian Islands but in microcosm:
blue sea, green hills, deserted beaches, unspoilt villages and a unique peaceful character that
once experienced is never forgotten. The Villa Alexandra, overlooking the picturesque harbour
of Vathi although only recently built combines all these qualities.
Situated on the side of a hill within its own private grounds of limestone terraces planted with
native shrubs, the villa’s interior accommodation complements its wonderful location. This
is open plan holiday living Meganisi style. There are three bedrooms each with an en suite
bathroom, two doubles and a twin bedded room. The master bedroom is on the same floor
as the spacious living room together with a fully equipped kitchen. Steps lead off the living
room to the other two bedrooms. Each has its own terrace/balcony facing the harbour and the
mountains beyond. Outside there is a large terrace with infinity pool, barbecue and shaded
seating area with plenty of room for relaxing pool-side on comfortable sun loungers. Should
gentle exercise be the order of the day, the traditional harbour and village of Vathi with its shops
and tavernas is a mere 350 metres stroll down the hill. Quiet roads lanes, and footpaths crisscross the island, making exploration either on foot or by car to secluded coves, rugged cliffs and
cool olive groves extremely easy.

TWO HILLSIDE FAMILY VILLAS, A STONE’S THROW FROM VATHI
WITH FABULOUS VIEWS
2 THREE BEDROOM VILLAS • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • CAR HIRE
Meganisi, literally means “the Big or Great Island”, a strange name for one of the smallest
inhabited islands in the Ionian but as any regular visitor will tell you, in many other ways it fully
merits its name. Big for the natural friendliness of its inhabitants, great for its setting, amongst a
string of smaller islands on the lake-like Inner Ionian Sea, there’s certainly nothing small about
the view from these two lovely villas set on a hillside overlooking the sea and the entrance to
Vathi’s sheltered harbour framed by the hills of Lefkada and the mainland mountains.
Situated in their own terraced grounds the villas are approached via a shared drive but it’s only
a short stroll of 200 metres down to the shops and waterfront tavernas of Vathi. Although they
both have the same overall design, due to the natural contours of the hillside, there is a slight
difference in their individual layouts.
In both villas the master double bedroom with its own dressing room and bathroom is on
the ground floor. Steps lead from here to the first floor living/dining room and fully equipped
kitchen area. Also on the first floor is a twin bedroom with bathroom and a staircase leading
up to a spacious twin bedroom and bathroom. The pool is situated on the first floor with access

PERFECTLY LOCATED STYLISH VILLA ENJOYING A SPECTACULAR
SEA VIEW
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL •CAR HIRE •AIR CONDITIONING
Spartohori, perched high above Spilia Bay has the most spectacular views across the sea to
the mountains of Lefkada. The village was deliberately located here as the perfect shelter from
pirates who once terrorized the local population. Completely land locked, the narrow entrance,
with its high promontory is almost invisible from the sea and easily defended. Yet from this
perfect vantage point, the locals could see approaching pirate ships for miles and warn the local
population. A few hundred years on a more peaceful type of marine visitor is attracted to this
enchanting inlet of Spilia Bay. The picturesque settlement of a few tavernas and beautiful crystal
clear beach is a popular anchorage for yacht men. What hasn’t changed over the centuries is this
idyllic location.
MEGANISI
Villa Elizabeth is set within its own grounds taking full advantage of the spectacular sea view.
Through the clever use of design and concern to protect the foliage, maximum privacy has been
maintained. The villa is built on two levels and has 3 bedrooms each with en-suite facilities.
The ground floor has a generous open plan living-dining room with a fully equipped kitchen
and a double bedroom with en suite. Large French windows and patio doors lead out onto the
front of the house to take full advantage of the stunning panoramic vista. In front of the villa is
a spacious sun terrace and a built in BBQ to the side. The terrace and the pool blending cleverly
into the natural environment. Two twin rooms, both with en suite, are on the upper level.
96
The location of Villa Elizabeth could hardly be improved. A short windy road leads onto the
main road that climbs up from both Vathi and Spilia Bay to the spectacularly sited old town of
Spartohori with its cobbled alleyways, good choice of tavernas. Both the village of Katomeri
and Vathi the capital are only a short distance away. For the energetic there is a labyrinth
of traditional kaldermia, or mule tracks, where you can reach several beaches and hill top
settlements on this beautiful island.

SPARTOCHORI
VILLA NATALIA
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Spartohori, located high above Spilia Bay, with spectacular views across to the mountains of
Lefkada was once a sanctuary from the pirates who plagued the Ionian Sea. Nowadays only
yachts and fishing boats pass peacefully through the narrow entrance to the Bay with its pretty
waterfront tavernas and delightful beach.
Like the village, the Villa Natalia has outstanding views, framed by trees ensuring privacy.
The house has been designed so that the view can be equally appreciated inside or out. The pool
on its spacious terrace surrounded by greenery is truly an extra outside room, completed by the
barbecue to the side.
Meganisi is the perfect island for getting lost, in the sense of losing all those trappings of a busy
world. Old mule trails wind through olive groves, some leading down to quiet beaches, others
suddenly opening out onto a hilltop where the trees give way to fields enclosed by drystone walls
with the islands of the Inner Ionian Sea at ones feet. The main road from Vathi and Spilia to
Spartohori is not exactly a major highway, with all the associated traffic and petrol fumes, but
can be subject to delays depending on how much time the goats spend browsing on the verges!
The village of Spartohori with its cobbled lanes and tavernas tucked away in secluded alleys is a
short distance away from the villa, whilst Vathi and Katomeri the other main settlements on the
island are within a few minutes’ drive.
Whilst walking is a delight on Meganisi, its spectacular west coast cliffs, pierced by natural
arches and massive sea caves are best explored by taking a tour boat from Nidri on Lefkada,
easily reached by ferry, and these boats usually circle round Skorpios Island, now owned by a
Russian oligarch. Who cares when Villa Natalia is itself a private island free from the cares of a
hectic world?

PARGA
AN IONIAN ISLAND ON THE MAINLAND
PARGA
Parga
98
Imagine the Cote d’Azur without
high rise hotels, tightly packed rows
of millionaires’ yachts squeezed into
glitzy marinas like so many floating
caravans, traffic jams, crowds of
people and you have a secret Greek
Riviera that runs for 60 miles from the
village of Sivota down to the mouth
of the River Acheron, the legendary
Styx, entrance to Hades. In fact,
Epiros, although administratively and
geographically part of the mainland
has much more in common with the
islands. The hills and mountains
rising behind and the panorama of
the Ionian Sea and islands in front,
create an impression of being cut off
from the mainland world.
The main village sits in a wide valley
with tree clad hills on either side.
A road twists upwards from the
roundabout, climbing a steep spur
and just beyond, overlooking the
lower reaches of the creek. A perfect
base for a leisurely exploration of this
fascinating region, either by sea or
land. Seasonal ferries and caiques run
to Corfu, Paxos and Anti Paxos or a
motor boat can be hired to discover
the innumerable little bays and islets
in the vicinity. By car, the town of
Ioannina, gateway to the Zagori and
Pindos mountains, is less than an
hour drive east through fascinating
countryside on relatively traffic free
and well surfaced roads.
Parga is justifiably referred to as
the jewel of Mainland Greece. It is
an incredibly beautiful town, and
the most perfect place by the sea.
Picturesque and dramatic scenery
enriched by a long and interesting
history provide compelling reasons
to thoroughly explore the area. There
are very few destinations in Greece to
compete with the diversity on offer in
this region.
Side roads lead through fertile valleys
to traditional villages, far removed
from tourist development, where rush
hour might consist more of donkeys
than cars! One can even visit Hades
from here! The Nekromantion of
Ephyra, standing above the modern
village of Mesopotamo southeast of
Parga is the legendary site from where
Charon rowed departed souls across
the marshy lake of Acherousa to the
Styx and Acheron rivers.

BOUTIQUE HOTEL AND VILLAS • ROOMS SLEEP 2 – 5 • SWIMMING POOL • BREAKFAST • AIR CONDITIONING
With captivating views out over the village of Parga and Lichnos Bay, the fabulous 4 Salvator
Hotel Villas & Spa takes full advantage of it’s superb elevated position in the hillsides of Kyperi.
The breathtaking panorama extends around this area of dramatic natural beauty, the turquoise
azure coastline contrasts with verdant olive clad hillsides and dark mysterious mountains
creating a perfect backdrop to this outstanding and unique boutique hotel.
Completed in 2010 to a high specification, this is a new venture for the Zigouris family who
have been running hotels as a family business since 1884 when their first hotel, the renowned
Acropol Hotel, was opened. The Salvator Hotel is made up of modern and stylish suites within
the main building and four superb two bedroomed villas each with their own pool located above
the main part of the hotel set within their own landscaped gardens.
The hotel was named after Archduke Ludwig Salvator, the famous explorer, who was also a keen
lover of nature and preservation. The location is convenient for exploring the historic city of
Ioannina, gateway to the magnificent Pindos and Zagori Ranges – this is undoubtedly one of the
most beautiful parts of Greece. The Pindos Mountains, which appear to cut off this coast from
the rest of the mainland, are well worth spending some time visiting – virtually untouched by
the speed of modern living, these scattered agricultural communities in the green valleys offer a
fascinating glimpse into a way of life that remains unchanged to this day.
Parga is justifiably referred to as the jewel of Mainland Greece. It is an incredibly beautiful
town, and the most perfect place by the sea. Picturesque and dramatic scenery enriched
by a long and interesting history provide compelling reasons to thoroughly explore the area.
There are very few destinations in Greece to compete with the diversity on offer in this region.

glades of its interior and the beaches
and picturesque inlets along its east
coast. It is a microcosm of all that is
best in a Greek island, but on a scale
that means it can be easily explored
by car or on foot.
Its reputation as a romantic
destination stretches as far back as
Roman times: Anthony and Cleopatra
apparently chose Paxos for a candlelit
dinner a deux before the fateful Battle
of Actium in 31BC, setting a precedent
that discerning British visitors to the
island have been happy to follow in
more recent times.
There are only two main villages on
the island, Gaios the capital, with
its network of narrow streets and
harbour sheltered by the picturesque
islet of Agios Nikolaos, and quiet
Loggos to the north, a fishing village
where island life moves at a slower
more relaxed pace.
Apart from the olives, the beaches
of Paxos have rightly earned the
accolades of those who have been
fortunate enough to visit them.
The choice is wide, from popular
stretches of sand where the active
can enjoy various watersports and
beachside kantinas to hidden small
beaches tucked away at the back of
tree-lined coves.
But Paxos is far more than just an
idyllic holiday destination. Most of its
inhabitants have lived and worked on
the island for many generations, and
tending their olives or vines, fishing
along its shores still play a central role
in the daily life of the island and the
visitor is very much a part of that life.
Perhaps therein lies the reason why
so many return to this “paradise”
year after year.

DANIELLA’S HOUSE
HILLSIDE VILLA SITUATED AMONGST OLIVE TREES AND OAK
WOODLAND WITH OUTSTANDING VIEWS OF GAIOS
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
In the past, life on a small Greek island revolved around the land, sea, and the seasons: on Paxos
it still does with many families involved in fishing, farming and olive growing. In high summer
the benefits of living up on the more shaded hillsides catching the breeze are considerable.
Nowadays visitors can also enjoy the cooler surroundings of the island’s wooded interior,
and Daniella’s House is a fine example of a traditionally built, modern house with excellent
amenities, in one of the most attractive hilltop settings on Paxos. The villa, surrounded by
limestone walls and terraces, planted with lavender and other typically Mediterranean shrubs,
has an outstanding view over the rooftops of the island’s picturesque capital and port, Gaios to
the mountains beyond.
The villa stands on a broad terrace containing the swimming pool which extends right
around the house, with a pool-side, shaded pergola and dining area whilst the interior layout
has been designed so that the glorious view can be enjoyed as much from the inside as out.
The bedrooms are two doubles and one twin bedded rooms all en suite and are located on the
same floor as the cool and very comfortable living and dining area with its fully fitted modern
kitchen, many opening out onto the terrace.

Beautifully situated, the villa is by no means remote. Gaios is only 7kms away, whilst the many
beaches and sheltered bays on the east coast are all within easy driving distance. The village
of Magazia, with its traditional taverna, bakery and shop is even closer, and provides a good
starting point for walks along the rugged west coast with its rock arches and wild cliffs, and
some of the most spectacular sunsets in the Ionian.
Deciding whether to spend lazy days by the pool soaking up the sunshine and that view or
exploring further afield might be the most pressing demand of your holiday in the delightful

PAVLO’S HOUSE
THREE BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE
AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
Life moves at a leisurely pace on Paxos and why hurry when there’s a view to be enjoyed like the
one from Pavlo’s House? At your feet the picturesque harbour of the island’s capital, Gaios, with
the comings and goings of the yachts and caiques, the green of Agios Nikolaos Island and where
the blue of sky and sea meet on the eastern horizon, the darker hills and mountains of Epiros
shimmering on the heat haze. But Pavlo’s House is much more than a room, or rather rooms,
with a view. Like all Ionian Island properties it is the attention to detail that makes this house an
excellent choice for a family holiday.
Starting from the outside, which given the Paxos weather is where you may well spend much
of your day, you can alternate between swimming in the delightful infinity pool, where the
panorama is equally stunning at water level to relaxing on the private sun terrace. Built in the
age-old island tradition out of the local limestone, the interior of the villa has been laid out in
such a way that the view follows you inside. Each of the three bedrooms, the double master
suite and two twin bedded rooms (naturally with their own en suite showers), opens out onto
terraces, whilst the airy living/dining room with its well-equipped kitchen leads to a shaded
terrace and once more on to that wonderful pool.

You may even want to explore the island. Downtown Gaios, with its maze of narrow streets that
lead to the harbour, is a short stroll away. Excellent bars and tavernas jostle for position with a
surprisingly wide variety of shops. A few minutes’ drive along the coast will reveal a series of
pristine pebble beaches, or you can head towards the sunset through the famous olive groves
and discover the wild and spectacular cliffs of the West coast. Or why not take one of the many
frequent caiques that will ferry you across to Paxo’s tiny neighbour Antipaxos and luxuriate on
the soft white sand? There’s something for everyone on this exquisite island.
NB: This Villa is not suitable for people with mobility difficulties.

IN BEDROOMS
We realize that not everyone who comes to Paxos requires a large property, but finding smaller
villas to suit couples or small families often means that the swimming pools are shared – until
now. These three relatively new one bedroom villas, enjoy an outstanding position overlooking
the harbour village of Gaios and the picturesque wooded island of Agios Nikolaos, are
not only perfectly proportioned for that intimate holiday for two but also have their own pools.
Each villa has a shaded verandah and patios on three sides for contemplating that view on a hot
and lazy afternoon.
The open plan living room and double bedroom lead out onto the spacious verandah and that
magnificent view. Villas Asteri and Helios have a comfortable single sofa bed in the living room,
Villa Fegari has an additional single bedroom.
A short stroll leads you into Gaios which is the island’s capital and main port has an understated
cosmopolitan atmosphere that sits comfortably with its traditional shops and tavernas lining
the waterfront. As a base for further exploration of this fascinating island or for beach hopping,
these villas couldn’t be better situated.
PAXOS
Many return to Paxos year after year as much for the island’s friendly and intimate atmosphere
as for its undeniably beautiful interior and coastline and these three small villas reflect those
unique characteristics. The villas are already a welcome addition to our collection of Paxos
properties so early booking is recommended to avoid disappointment.
NB: These villas are on a staggered incline with Villa Fegari at the top, Helios in the middle and
Asteri below. The villas are reached by a steep driveway with a number of steps up to Helios
and Fegari and may not be suitable for people with walking difficulties.

VILLA GALLINI
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
It’s difficult to believe, when looking down on the jumbled red roofs of the village and harbour
of Gaios, that this is an island capital and ferry port, just like Manhattan. Luckily the only
resemblance to the latter may be in a cocktail offered at one of the waterfront bars!
Villa Gallini, despite being so close to the centre of island life has been built so that guests
can enjoy the gentle art of pure relaxation in lovely surroundings. Whilst the view of wooded
islands, blue sea and sky, and distant mountains may be far-reaching, the swimming pool, with
its spacious sun terrace is definitely of the infinity variety!
Built using the local limestone the villa continues the long island tradition of building houses
that complement their surroundings. The interior, has been thoughtfully laid out to ensure that
the magnificent view can be equally appreciated indoors. There are two bedrooms, a double
and a twin, both opening on to a verandah, a shower room and separate WC. A well-equipped
kitchen leads into the living/dining room which again opens onto a shaded verandah and the
swimming pool.
The whole island is easily accessible from the villa. The roads might be narrow but tailbacks of
more than a couple of cars or an ancient tractor or two are unheard of, and unlike the M25 are
more than likely to have been caused by a wayward goat! Pristine pebble coves, often fringed
by overhanging cypresses can be found around every east coast headland, but an evening
stroll along the wild and rocky western coast will usually be rewarded with one of the most
spectacular sunsets in the Ionian.
Recommended for a family or a small group of friends, Villa Gallini is the ideal base for
experiencing the unique Paxiot way of life.
NB: The villa is reached by a steep driveway.

VILLA KRISTINA
A WELL APPOINTED VILLA SET AMONGST OLIVE TREES IN THE
QUIET INTERIOR OF THE ISLAND
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
Etymologists have argued over the centuries about the derivation of the island we know
today as Paxos. They still do! Perhaps the most accurate theory to date is that it takes its name
from “Pax” meaning peace. And of course the universal symbol for peace is the olive branch.
When one adds the fact that Paxos is above all the island of olives then logic as well as romance
dictates that this is truly an Island of peace.
Certainly, the delightful Villa Kristina is worthy of the island’s name. Enjoying an idyllic
courtyard setting surrounded by olive groves, this is Paxos at its best. Even the private
swimming pool with its flagstone paving has its own venerable but vigorous olive tree shading
one corner. The paving itself, known as “plaka” is another natural product of this fascinating
small island. Another theory is that Paxos is actually derived from the old Greek word for these
flagstones!
The interior of this two bedroomed villa with its living area opening out directly onto the terrace
and pool is extremely comfortable and well appointed.
PAXOS
The island capital Gaios, set on a sheltered channel off the Inner Ionian Sea has every facility
also only a short drive away are the many coves and picturesque bays waiting to be explored
or the spectacular cliffs of the West coast famous for their rock architecture and magnificent
sunsets.

VILLA BETTIE
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
The interior of Paxos is a maze of quiet lanes winding through abundant Olive groves making
the island seem much bigger than it is. Despite its size Paxos is an island full of pleasant
surprises. Nestled amongst olive trees, sitting beside its lovely pool and enjoying stunning views
of the Ionian, the villas location is simply perfect. In fact you wouldn’t think this idyllic location
is so close to the picturesque and bustling port of Gaios.
Inside the villa everything has been designed for comfort and relaxation. The open plan living
room and well equipped kitchen leads out on to a spacious patio area with that magnificent
view. There are 3 bedrooms, the larger master bedroom is to one side of the living room and
has an en-suite bathroom, the other two bedrooms, sharing an additional bathroom are on the
opposite side of the house making it ideal for two couples or families.
The large swimming pool and roomy terrace is located in the front taking full advantage of the
view, complemented by a shaded area and built in rock barbeque essential for true Ionian al
fresco dining. Evenings are particularly special here! As the view fades in the twilight, a warm
breeze often rises from the sea and rustles through the trees; the lights of Gaios come on, soon
to be eclipsed by the clear night sky above.
A short 20 minute stroll leads you into Gaios, which is the island’s capital and main port, it has
an understated cosmopolitan and friendly atmosphere that sits comfortably with its traditional
shops and tavernas all lining the waterfront. As a base for further exploration on this fascinating
island Villa Bettie is ideal. We are certain that Villa Bettie will leave a lasting impression.

“The olive tree is surely the richest gift of heaven.” So said the third president of the
United States and architect of its Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson over
two hundred years ago. Villa Kiki didn’t exist then, but some of the olive trees surrounding
this delightful retreat were already hundreds of years old, as are the lovely views across
the picturesque Gaios. If Jefferson was right, (and he was – most of the time!) then this single
storey house with its warm pantiled roof certainly makes the most of its ‘gifts from heaven.
For every sunny corner on the terraces surrounding the pool there is an olive tree providing
welcome shade.
There are two air-conditioned bedrooms a double with en suite shower room and a twin
bedroom with use of an additional shower and WC. Both bedrooms have patio doors opening
onto the sea facing terrace, whilst the open plan living room, fully equipped kitchen and dining
room also open onto the terrace. The swimming pool is only a few steps away, and, of course that
essential for true Ionian al fresco dining, a built-in barbecue.

For centuries Loggos was a thriving fishing village and the port that served the hillside villages
of Palos. The exquisite quaint harbour front would be a hive of activity with boats loading up
with grain, olives, olive oil and locally produced wine. Nowadays, whilst the fishing boats are
still present they share their moorings with visiting yachts and caciques carrying people not
goods. In a charming way, Loggos is once again buzzing with activity but a different sort, having
said that if you take a short stroll along the bay the pace of life becomes much slower.

The famous olive trees of Paxos not only provide some of the most highly prized oil in Greece,
they also frame the spectacular view from the Villa Alexandros. Recently built in the local style,
the villa has all the modern amenities to complement its beautiful treetop setting.
The large terrace extends round two sides of the villa, with superb views from the swimming
pool area, the barbecue and the spacious, part shaded front terrace across the trees to the Inner
Ionian Sea.
The interior of the villa with its wood-lined vault ceilings and cool well-furnished living/

designed to complement the views. Both bedrooms, a twin and a double have air-conditioning
and there is a separate bathroom with shower.
On Paxos you are never more than a few minutes’ drive from the coast and a wide choice of
beaches. The wilder west side of the island with its high cliffs and spectacular rock formations
is well worth exploring, especially in the cool of the evening to watch the sun set over Homer’s
“wine dark sea”. Gaios, with its wide choice of tavernas, shops and waterfront life is a mere five

VILLA TAKITOS
A QUAINT BEAUTIFUL STONE-BUILT VILLA AMONGST THE OLIVE TREES
WITHIN EASY REACH OF THE COAST
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
There’s an old Greek saying which sums up how best to pass the time whilst on holiday in Paxos:
“hasten….but slowly!” Sound advice when there is so much to see and enjoy. For instance, whilst
staying at the Villa Takitos you could run down and dive into the warm sea at Ballos Beach in
under a minute, but better to take all of two minutes and stroll, or even go for the marathon and
reach the oddly named Donkey’s Ears Beach in an interminable three minutes!
Villa Takitos is constructed in the traditional way from the warm Paxiot limestone and is
surrounded by the ubiquitous olives that are the signature trees of the island. This gives the
perfect setting for relaxation, yet the villa is only a five minute drive from the sheltered and very
safe family beach next to Mongonissi Islet. A further two minutes drive along a quiet coastal
road will get you to the island’s main port and picturesque harbour Gaios, with its wide choice
of tavernas and shops. Time it right and the fishing boats will be in with the day’s catch, cleaned
and ready for the evening barbecue back at the house.

ELAIA SUITES
BEAUTIFUL MODERN APARTMENT SUITES SET IN AN OLIVE GROVE
NEAR GAIOS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Sadly many of the traditional island communities around the coasts of Europe were abandoned
during the late part of the 19th Century. Idyllic locations and self-sufficient agriculture,
combined with isolation were not enough to sustain their inhabitants as the Industrial
Revolution swept through the continent. Paxos was no exception, and yet the deserted village of
Germanichos near Gaios proves that with imagination and dedication, these old communities
can be brought back to life.
Built in an established olive grove next to the abandoned village the Elaia Suites are a shining
example of how low-key tourism can revitalize an area without losing any of its natural beauty.
The spacious well designed and furnished apartments and studios, each with its own shaded
balcony or terrace look out onto a large pool area surrounded by mature olive trees. Paxos has
always been an island of light and shade, sea and sky, and all these elements are preserved in
these recently built apartments. Retaining walls and terraces have been built using the local
stone and traditional techniques. Geraniums and other native flowers add colour and texture.
And of course the setting enjoys superb views across the water to the green island of Corfu and
the mainland.
PAXOS
Gaios, the thriving little port and capital of the island is only 2 kms away with the nearest beach
only half that distance. Paxos, despite or maybe because of its small size, is made for quiet
discovery – rugged cliffs, secret coves, ancient churches and old meadows, in season filled with
wild flowers and herbs are all close at hand.
The olive tree is the living symbol of Paxos. Elaia Suites combine the island’s ancient traditions
and wonderful landscape with modern amenities and spacious well-designed accommodation.

PAXOS CLUB HOTEL
DELIGHTFUL HOTEL SET AMONGST THE ISLANDS FAMOUSLY LUSH
OLIVE GROVES
BOUTIQUE HOTEL • SLEEPS 2 PER STUDIO • SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING • BREAKFAST
The interior of Paxos is a maze of quiet lanes winding through the trees, making the island
seem much bigger than it actually is. The Paxos Club Hotel, set in lovely mature gardens and
surrounded by olive groves feels pleasantly remote. In fact it is barely a kilometre from the
main port of Gaios, the dramatic cliffs and headlands of the west coast. At the heart of this
delightful small hotel is an original Paxiot house built out of the sun-bleached limestone rock
of the island. It is now used as a restaurant where breakfast can be enjoyed in the morning.
The accommodation blends attractively with the surroundings and the old house. Traditional
from the outside, the interiors have been designed for comfort and convenience and include a
comfortable lounge with satellite TV and internet facilities.
The pool area also has an unusual jacuzzi constructed on a little island, reached by a small bridge.
Adjacent and separated from the main pool by this bridge is also a children’s paddling pool.
The Paxos Club is perfectly situated for walking. Paths and quiet lanes lead out in
all directions and a beach or fabulous picnic spot is never more than a 15 minute stroll away.
It is only a 15 minute stroll down into Gaios, with its wide choice of restaurants, shops, tavernas
and its bustling harbour.

FANARIOTATIKA, NEAR GAIOS
GEORGINA’S HOUSE
A RENOVATED TRADITIONAL PAXIOT HOUSE IN AN IDYLLIC,
PEACEFUL SETTING
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
The landscape of Paxos has hardly changed in centuries. The famous olive groves that cover
most of the island are still largely tended by the descendants of the families who first planted
them in Venetian times. Hidden amongst the trees is a scattering of small hamlets where many
of the houses have been built from the original stones cleared from the land when the trees were
first planted. Such a house is the Villa Georgina which has been sensitively restored to provide
all the modern comforts without compromising its original features with the added benefit of a
secluded and very private setting in the hamlet of Fanariotatika. Conventional measures of time
and distance thankfully mean very little on Paxos but the villa is located close to Gaios village
and the many east coast beaches; peace and quiet does not mean isolation here.
The terraces leading down to the swimming pool then on to further terraced gardens planted
with many of the typical Mediterranean fruit trees. In the late spring and early summer any lack
of fruit is more than compensated for by the scent of citrus blossom, whilst later in the year fresh
oranges picked in the cool of the early morning add a new dimension to breakfast ‘al fresco’, a
theme that is maintained by the barbecue and dining area on a side terrace.

It may be a small world on the island of Paxos, but within its few square miles there is more
variety in the natural landscape than any of the larger Greek islands. From the rugged west
coast cliffs, where the Adriatic has pounded the rocks into fantastic shapes, to the cool wooded
interior with its traditional hamlets and ancient footpaths, the fishing and yachting ports of
Loggos and Gaios and herb clad hillsides of the southwest corner near the yachtsmn’s haven and
safe family beach of Mongonissi Islet, there is something for everyone. And the Kantada Villas,
less than 50 metres from a delightful small beach, with views across the Inner Ionian Sea to the
Epiros mainland are a perfect base for exploration as well as relaxation.
These four identical detached villas, sharing a large swimming pool, have all been given good
Greek names from the distant past, Dionysi, Stelios, Eleni and Petros. With cool open plan
interiors, each villa opens out onto a shaded verandah with suitably comfortable tables and
chairs for contemplating the panoramic sea views. All the villas have a twin bedded and double
bedroom with en suites in both, well equipped kitchens and the essential BBQ area for al fresco
dining.
Gaios, with its excellent choice of shops, mini-markets and tavernas is 5 minutes’ away by car or

Paxos is a small island of just ten kilometres long and four kilometres wide, yet it has captivated
many people over the years for its peacefulness, genuine friendliness, traditional way of life and
sheer serenity. Very much unchanged and still under developed despite the presence of tourism
for the last thirty years, it is not until you get into the hills do you discover what Paxos is all
about, tradition and beauty.
This part of Paxos is a haven of peace with wonderful walks that cross through the olive groves
guided by the dry stone walls. Nestled into the hillside close to Magazia and within a short drive
to Gaios is Villa Ita. This two bedroom villa is surrounded by olive trees and is the epitome of
Paxos, small, understated and traditional.
Villa Ita is the perfect size for a small family, a couple or even a small group of friends. Set on one
level and built out of local stone, this villa blends superbly into the surrounding olive trees which
also give privacy. On entering the villa from the rear, you walk into the open plan living room
and dining room. All rooms lead towards the front terrace and the views that take in the south
western vista of the green carpet of olive groves on the island towards the sea, the caves that
housed smugglers in years gone by and to Anti Paxos.

One dictionary definition for the word dream reads, ‘something that somebody hopes or longs
for, usually something difficult to attain or far removed from present.’ If that dream is a house
set on a Greek island hillside surrounded by olives and overlooking the sparkling blue waters of
the Inner Ionian Sea then far from being difficult to attain it can easily become a reality at the
delightful Villa Oneiro on Paxos which translates as The House of Dreams!
Naturally this lovely holiday home comes with a broad paved terrace complete with swimming
pool, a shady gazebo for al fresco dining and a BBQ close by, all designed to make the most of the
view out across the water to the misty hills of the mainland.
PAXOS
The house itself is built using the two timeless elements of Paxos, wood and stone, has a

Situated at the centre of the island, close to the old hamlet of Kagkatika, the villa is equidistant
between the wild and unspoilt west coast famous for its dramatic cliffs and spectacular sunsets
and the sheltered wooded bays and beaches of the east coast. Loggos, the smallest and possibly
prettiest of the three main villages on the island with its quay-side tavernas and mini-markets
is a short drive away. The village is also close to many quiet shingle beaches, where kayaks and
boats can be hired to explore further afield. Ancient mule tracks and paths lead in all directions.
Getting lost in the cool of the early evening can be a delight, especially in the knowledge that
nowhere on this small island is more than a few minutes from everywhere!

VILLA AGATHI
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
When past generations of Paxiots first cleared their land and planted the famous olive groves
that clothe this small island did they instinctively know that one day the same houses they built
out ofthe warm grey limestone rocks would become havens of peace and tranquility for visitors?
Villa Agathi in the tiny hamlet of Kangatika is one such house. Blending perfectly into
its surroundings, obviously built to last for centuries, step inside and you find yourself in
a beautifully renovated interior, with all the comfortable furnishings and modern fittings
essential for truly relaxed holiday living. The open plan sitting room, dining area and well
equipped kitchen is light and airy, creating a wonderful cool retreat on those Ionian summer
afternoons, when only the cicadas seem busy. The master bedroom has its own en suite shower
and there is an additional twin bedded room and separate family bathroom with shower.
Step outside onto the spacious terrace, walled on two sides, and enjoy a stunning view over
olives and cypresses to the hills and mountains of the mainland shimmering in the sunshine.
Exploring the surroundings on foot in the cool shade of the olive trees is a wonderful experience,
even in high summer, with countless goat tracks to follow, usually echoing to the sounds of the
bells from the flocks higher up the hillsides. Walking down to the little fishing port of Loggos
and Levrecchio Beach only takes approx twenty five minutes, and with some careful negotiation
you might even persuade one of your party to drive down and meet you in a taverna on the
seafront, offering a cool beer or frappe in return for a lift back home!

BEAUTIFULLY SITUATED ONE-BEDROOMED APARTMENTS ON A
WOODED HILLSIDE ABOVE THE CHARMING FISHING VILLAGE OF
LOGGOS
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 3 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Poseidon, tired from creating storm and strife at sea, needed a romantic retreat for himself and
his beloved Amphriditi. With one blow from his trident Paxos was created and its reputation for
both romance and tranquility has lasted long after the age of myth gave way to the age of man.
In fact some believe that the island’s name derives from the Roman word for peace, Pax.
Whatever the origins of the island or its name, the charming tiny fishing village of Loggos
on the sheltered northeast coast epitomizes the quiet beauty of this small island, and for that
romantic getaway or a restful holiday in delightful surroundings the Pangolas Apartments are
hard to beat. Surrounded by the famous olive groves and woods of oak and cypress trees, on a
quiet hillside overlooking the harbour with views across the inner Ionian Sea to the hills of the
mainland, the apartments are only a five minute stroll from the waterfront tavernas and mini
markets of Loggos, with three or four lovely beaches within easy walking distance.
Comfortably furnished each one bedroomed apartment has its own terrace or balcony. For
those lazy, relaxing days there is a good size shared pool and sun terrace, but for those wishing
to explore on foot a network of paths and trails, some centuries’ old criss cross the island, whilst
the rest of this fascinating island, including the main port of Gaios is only a short drive away on
quiet country roads.
PAXOS
Poseidon chose well and for a relaxed romantic break for couples the Pangolas Apartments are
highly recommended.

SOUSTA APARTMENTS
TWO 1 BEDROOM MAISONETTES • SLEEPS 2 • SHARED SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Loggos, tucked into a sheltered bay on the east coast of Paxos epitomizes all that makes this
small island so attractive to the discerning visitor. Olive groves and cypress woods cover the
hillsides above the village with its harbour and cluster of tavernas and houses.
The Sousta maisonettes are a fine example of the way even recently built buildings have
maintained this attractive traditional theme by the careful use of the warm textured local
limestone rock, courtyards and gardens filled with bougainvillea, oleander and, of course,
shaded by venerable olive trees. The interiors, whilst still remaining within the local tradition
are comfortably furnished and well-equipped, with balconies overlooking the paved courtyard
and shared swimming pool enjoying views across the Inner Ionian Sea to the mainland
mountains.
It’s a mere three minute stroll to Loggos and its mini-markets and quayside tavernas, whilst the
nearest beach is just 150 metres away, with many others easily accessible. Whilst the coast with
its sheltered bays, beaches and dramatic western seaboard scenery is justifiably famous, the
wooded interior is equally delightful.
Few would argue that a holiday on Paxos can be the perfect way to recharge the batteries or to
escape from the demands of a busy world, but if a further boost is required then perhaps a visit
to the Zoodochos Pigi church in Loggos with its frescoes from another age and its fountain
might be in order. The name means Fountain of Life and will undoubtedly put a spring in your
step for the short journey back to the delightful Sousta Maisonettes!

Corfu or Kerkyra, Zeus’s scythe,
or more romantically the beautiful
daughter of a river god, owes its
undoubted beauty to nature not
to legend.
This is the garden isle of the Ionian.
Unlike many Greek islands, Corfu
owes its lush and varied landscape
to the presence of fresh water and its
mild winters. Popular with artists
and writers for over five hundred
years, Shakespeare himself is said
to have stayed on the island and it
inspired The Tempest, nowadays it
fully deserves its growing reputation
as one of the Mediterranean’s finest
holiday destinations. Certainly there
is romantic quality in its many secret
corners and hidden bays, particularly
on its unspoilt northeast coast.
There are busy resorts, mainly in the
south of the island, along with the
usual tourist attractions, but these
can make a fun-filled day’s diversion
for any children. Our properties are
situated along the northeast coast,
where the pace of Corfiot life is
much slower in beautiful, peaceful
surroundings. Tree-clad mountain
slopes, wooded bays with delightful
beaches, small traditional fishing
villages and above all the warm
waters of the Ionian Sea, all make
for an outstanding holiday.
Corfu Town itself, the centre of the
history and culture of the island
is an eclectic mix of old and new.
Castles, ancient ruins, gracious
mansions, narrow streets and wide
plateias, even that most British
of features, a cricket ground are
clustered round a sheltered harbour.
Once through the outskirts, the
real Corfu begins. Farming and
horticulture dominate the landscape,
with sleepy villages tucked into
the folds of the hills, dominated
in the North by the impressive Mt
Pantokrator, the island’s highest peak.
Many have taken a lifetime to discover
the secrets of this beautiful island,
but the experience of just a week or
a fortnight will easily last a lifetime.

Corfu, perhaps more than any other in the Ionian, is an island of contrasts. It is hard to believe
that the unspoilt Agios Stefanos is just a few miles away from the bustling resort of Kassiopi, or
that the mysterious brown hills of Albania are only a few miles across the strait from the lovely
pine woods and olives that surround this romantic little villa.
Situated close to Villa Eleni, Relis is reached by a track that passes the village school, the
house is backed by a shady olive grove and set in its own gardens overlooking the wooded
slopes leading down to the sea with wonderful views. The location is truly outstanding and the
accommodation complements it perfectly.
The swimming pool and terrace offer ample space to relax making this unique one bedroom
cottage the perfect romantic retreat for a couple. The front door opens onto the open plan
lounge/dining room with a balcony and fully fitted kitchen. On the same level there is a separate
bathroom and an air-conditioned double bedroom, which opens onto the balcony with those
spectacular views.

The tiny harbour of Agios Stefanos is one of Corfu’s hidden gems. Reached by a narrow winding
lane this picturesque inlet half hidden by trees has remained totally unspoilt, though it is only
a few miles from the popular resort of Kassiopi. The immediate area of the village is a tranquil
haven with individual villas dotted amongst pine woods and olive groves, leading down to a
series of beaches.
Villa Eleni is built on the hillside and set over three levels. You enter the villa on the
upper floor to a twin bedroom with en suite bathroom and a double bedroom both with
en suite shower room and large open terrace. The next floor down takes you to a further twin
bedroom with en suite bathroom and private terrace. This floor leads up to a mezzanine with
dining room and extra shower room. On this level there is a fully equipped open plan kitchen
leading out to a terrace with barbecue. Down from the mezzanine is a large living room opening
to the main terrace at the front with breathtaking views over the swimming pool and its
surrounding trees and gardens towards the sea.

Perhaps the Gods regretted their violent mythical creation of Corfu and made amends by
granting it not only that essential Greek element of sunshine, but also an abundant water supply
giving the island its lush vegetation and wonderful woodland. A Corfiot tree, whether olive or
oak is allowed to grow untouched by the saw, the result is not only natural air conditioning at the
height of summer, but a sense of calm and seclusion in many of the small hamlets set back from
the main highway.
Set in a verdant glade above the main road that runs along Corfu’s magnificent northeast coast,
the villa is perched between mountain and sea, with far reaching views across to the Greek and
Albanian mainland. Secluded, certainly, but far from isolated, for the charming, unspoilt fishing
village of Agios Stefanos is a mere 4kms away, along with a choice of superb coves and beaches.
CORFU
The interior complements the setting, carefully designed to incorporate the best of modern and
traditional fittings and furniture. The main living area is located on the first floor, maximizing
the superb view. The living/dining area is large and comfortable with fireplace, fully fitted
kitchen and a cloakroom. Outside steps lead down to the swimming pool and barbecue area.
Downstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, a double master suite and a twin bedded room
(one with en suite shower) plus a third twin bedded room with adjacent shower. The swimming
pool and barbecue area has a shaded seating area, surrounded by flowering shrubs framing that
all important view.

Nissaki
NEAR NISSAKI
VILLA GEORGINA
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE
One of the many settlements in the northwest of Corfu that exudes a truly traditional Greek
atmosphere is the coastal village of Nissaki. Nissaki means ‘little island’ and many years ago it
was exactly that. Here a small horseshoe shaped beach of fine pebbles offers a taste of history,
as you can imagine the local settlers working to shape stones and rocks to build the first homes
that form the picturesque village. The chippings off these stones fell into the sea and over time,
formed the connection between Nissaki and the main island of Corfu to provide the peninsula
and beach you find today.
Nissaki is home to tavernas and houses that are scattered through the tree lined slopes leading
up to Mount Pantokrator. The beach offers excellent swimming and on the occasional evening a
boat trip to enjoy dinner at the nearby tavernas of Agni beach.
High above Nissaki beach and the many ‘deserted’ little coves that are just waiting to be
explored sits Villa Georgina and the neighbouring Villa Katina. These villas, nestled amongst
the lush vibrant landscape are ideal for a relaxing holiday with fantastic views.

Situated on the most beautiful side of Corfu, the north east coast, Agni, is as famous for its
excellent waterside tavernas as its location. Agni literally translates as ‘unspoilt’ in Greek and this
describes the bay perfectly. Nearby is the chapel mentioned by Laurence Durrell in ‘Prospero’s
Cell’. Below is a small underwater cave for the more adventurous snorklers and swimmers.
Overlooking all this beauty, built up a steep incline on the hillside above Agni amongst the
cypress and olive trees, one can find the sensational Villa Agni-Stefania. It has a commanding
position with breathtaking views across the bay and the northern Ionian Sea to the Albanian
mountains in the distance.
The villa consists of three bedrooms on two floors. An open staircase leads up to the spacious
master bedroom with sofa, double bed, en suite bathroom and two balconies with the most
fantastic views of the bay. On the ground floor is an open plan living, dining room with fireplace
and fully equipped kitchen accessing the front terrace and the splendid views. Off the living
room you will find two twin bedrooms both with en suite bathrooms and private terraces.
To the side is a spacious sun terrace, swimming pool and barbecue, fantastically blended into
the natural environment, with many personal touches and attention to detail.

Oleanders are one of the defining shrubs of Greece, their name associated with one of the most
romantic yet tragic stories from mythology.
Leander fell in love with a beautiful Greek maiden and used to swim the Hellespont every night
to see his beloved. One night he was drowned in a storm. His lover found him dead on the sand,
the beautiful flower was clutched in his hand. “O Leander “ she cried as she gently removed it
and kept it has a symbol of their love. Magically it continued to grow and has become the symbol
of everlasting love. No need for such perilous romantic gestures at the delightful Villa Aeolos: an
oleander hedge surrounds the garden and the house has its own private swimming pool on the
terrace!

3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Corfu is an island of pleasant surprises and Bolana Bay at its north east corner is one of them.
Approaching from the south, a quiet country road winds its way down through olive groves,
the sea still out of sight, you can glimpse the brown hills of Albania through the branches,
seemingly close enough to touch. Then the trees can give way to more open slopes of old vine
terraces now reclaimed by myrtle and broom; one last bend and there is a crescent of bright
shingle and blue water, perhaps a sail or two bending to the breeze.
Five minutes’ walk from Coyevinas beach and set in its own wonderfully mature gardens on a
slight rise is where Villa Lofos can be found. This lovely three bedroom villa offers cool spacious
interiors blending contemporary fittings and furniture with the traditional Greek style and
elegance. With large picture windows, the beautiful gardens become that extra room, which is
the hallmark of good design. The villa is all on one level and is approached from the rear, as you
enter the villa you arrive into the spacious living room with dining facilities and an open plan

Our Greek owners have a special relationship with their properties that goes far deeper than
just bricks and mortar. Often the land, whether olive grove vineyard or orchard, on which they
build a new villa or renovate an old cottage has been in the same family since Venetian times.
Votana, a traditional Corfiot cottage, set amongst oleanders, olives and cypress trees is just such
a property. The garden, fenced for privacy, surrounds the swimming pool and is well tended and
equally meticulous care is lavished on the interior of the villa. Simplicity, comfort and ease of
living are the keynotes here, with furnishings chosen to reflect the modern Corfiot style.
CORFU
The villa is not only close to all the amenities of Kassiopi, a popular resort that has not lost it’s
traditional Corfiot character, but also provides an excellent base for exploring the mountains
and hills that rise up behind the property.

To explore every one of Corfu’s innumerable beaches would need a lifetime. They range from
wide open stretches of sand with all the latest resort amenities to tiny patch of shingle, hidden at
the back of rocky coves, accessible only by boat, but perhaps the island’s best coastal features are
to be found in the many smaller bays and inlets of the east coast. Many are quiet and uncrowded
backed by a few houses and a couple of tavernas. Kaminaki, a few hundred metres below the
Villa Fantasia is just such a beach, but there are many more to be discovered.
The villa is very well appointed with a spacious open plan lounge, fully fitted kitchen. There is
air conditioning in all three bedrooms, two twins and a double master bedroom with French

VILLA KATINA
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
The north east corner of Corfu is a green blanket of cypress trees and olive groves, with villages,
hamlets and other small settlements dotted around. This area is what gives the island its
‘Greekness’ a typically Ionian Island feel, only found on the eastern side of Greece. One of the
first villages on this stretch of coastline is Nissaki.
Nissaki means ‘little Island’ and hundreds of years ago that is exactly what it was. In years past,
the local people worked on this island shaping stones and local rocks to be used for building.
After many years, with the chippings falling into the sea which eventually joined the island to
Corfu, forming a horseshoe beach. Nissaki is a small quiet coastal village with three tavernas
and houses that stretch upwards amongst the tree lined slopes of Mount Pantokrator. This is
where we have found four wonderful houses, Villa Katina, Georgina, Helena and Antigone, high
above Nissaki and with views to match their grand elevated position.
Villa Katina is a fantastic two bedroom villa with splendid terraces and gardens that blend in
with the lush vibrant landscape. The villa is approached up the hillside from the main coastal
road and as you wind around towards the villa you suddenly become aware of the elevated
position as you glimpse the stunning coastline of Corfu stretching south.
This comfortable villa consists of two bedrooms, a double and a twin, both with access to a
balcony with sea views. A living room leads down to a wonderfully secluded circular terrace
giving fantastic panoramic views along the coastline and across to Albania. The private
swimming pool sun terrace to the side of the villa has totally unobstructed views that emphasise
the beauty of Corfu’s landscape, with further views across the sea to the mainland, Corfu Town
is also visible from here. The nearest tavernas and mini markets are just three minutes’ drive
downhill, while the tavernas and lovely beach of Nissaki are only five minutes’ drive away.

The north east coast of Corfu is dotted with picturesque small bays and inlets, each one with its
own small fishing harbour and cluster of houses and tavernas. Amongst these is the delightful
Agios Stefanos, a village that has remained largely unchanged over centuries, surrounded by
small beaches of pebbles with some of the clearest waters, backed by cypress and olive trees.
An excellent base for exploring the coastline in the immediate area, by sea or land, as well as the
fascinating interior of Mount Pantokrator massif.
Situated down a winding lane, there is a wonderful sense of seclusion without isolation as
the main port of Corfu Town is accessible to the south as is the spectacular western coastline.
Located on the waterfront with views that take in the harbour and the mysterious Albanian
mountains past the wide sweep of the inner Ionian Sea in the distance. Over three floors, the
apartments occupy a prime position in Agios Stefanos with everything you need close by.
A better waterside location than the beautiful village of Agios Stefanos would be hard to find.

ELSA’S LIMANI HOUSE
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS • CAR HIRE (OR TRANSFER OPTION)
Winding down the hillside from the main coastal road you reach the beautiful bay of Agios
Stefanos, relatively unchanged for the last 20 years when tourism first hit the island of Corfu.
Agios Stefanos is one of the prettiest and most peaceful fishing villages on the island and is
considered the gem of north eastern Corfu with a few tavernas, coffee bars, mini markets and
yachts stretching across the front of the horseshoe bay looking towards the sea. There are two
beaches for swimming at either side of the bay, one just past the motor boat jetty and the other
below the eucalyptus and cypress trees on the opposite side, both shingle with superb clear
waters, perfect for snorkelling. A thirty minute walk over the headland will take you to the quiet
beach of Kerasia and its sole taverna and fantastic swimming.
Nestled in the heart of the harbour is Elsa’s Limani House. Literally translated ‘limani’ means
harbour which couldn’t be a more appropriate choice considering the house’s proximity to the sea.
The house is split over two floors into two well equipped apartments. Both the upper and
lower floors are comfortably furnished and identical inside each with two bedrooms, a double
bedroom at the front of the apartment and a twin at the rear. There are two bathrooms, one
with a half bath and one with a shower. The open plan living room/kitchen are at the centre of
the apartment and lead out onto an excellent terrace. The upper front bedroom leads out onto a
shaded balcony, which looks towards the harbour entrance and the rising sun in the morning.
The building is surrounded by a stone flagged terrace, enhancing the feeling of space but with
privacy from the external wall. There is also a barbecue for the use of both apartments.

THROW FROM THE WATERFRONT
ONE BEDROOM APARTMENT • SLEEPS 2 • AIR CONDITIONING
The English name Stephen is derived from the Greek for crown and the small fishing settlement
of Agios Stephanos, tucked into the head of a sheltered bay under the eastern slopes of Mt
Pantokratos is a jewel in Corfu’s crown. Legend has it that the Saint once saved a Corfu fishing
village from a particularly violent pirate attack by turning their ship to stone, so it’s no wonder
that he is one of the more popular saints of the island with at least two villages named in his
honour. The village still retains much of its traditional character, although the pirates are long
gone, replaced by visiting yachts, the village retains much of its traditional character with its
narrow streets and alleyways.
Apartment Fotini is on the edge of the village, close to the harbour and the beach with its shops
and tavernas. Approached through a vine-covered archway off a quiet lane this one bedroomed
ground-floor apartment combines the atmosphere of the old with simple, but very comfortable
accommodation. There is a one bedroom apartment with master double and a small single
room, a living/dining area with small kitchen and a shower room. A vine-covered verandah
with table and chairs provides welcome shade during the heat of the day or for eating alfresco.
The apartment is air-conditioned.

developed region on the island.
Despite its turbulent past Agios Stephanos today retains all the traditional character of a

Agios Stefanos is one of Corfu’s unspoilt gems, a cluster of traditional houses set on a
picturesque, sheltered bay and harbour, where brightly painted fishing boats and sleek modern
yachts are moored alongside each other on the quay. It is a friendly village, where locals and
visitors alike mingle in the narrow streets and waterside bars.
Apartment Faye is situated right in the heart of the community, a few moments’ stroll from the
harbour and the beach with its shops and tavernas. Greeks love their balconies and for good
reason as these little outside rooms like this one perched above the narrow street, catch the
breeze off sea or mountain and provide that perfect viewpoint from which to watch the comings
and goings of daily village life.
Occupying the second floor, Faye has balconies on both sides of the apartment, either
overlooking the quiet lane below and to the side, across ochre pantiled roofs with the bay
beyond, or at the rear of the house lovely mountain views.
Approached up a quiet lane through a vine-covered archway the apartment consists of an open
plan, fully fitted kitchen. Two balcony doors lead from this area to a quiet, back balcony.There
are two bedrooms, a double and twin-bedded room, sharing a balcony with side views to the sea.
There is a fully fitted bathroom with overhead shower, wash basin and WC and an additional
separate shower room with WC. The beach with sunbeds and umbrellas is literally moments
away, but the wonderful quiet beaches at Kerasia and Aviaki are also within easy reach.
Agios Stefanos and the Faye Apartment are a winning combination for a family or two couples
looking for a quiet holiday in unspoilt surroundings: a perfect place to stop and let the world
go by, but with all of Corfu with its variety of landscape, history, holiday activities within easy

There is much more to Skiathos
than its 68 superb beaches, many of
them with the coveted blue flags, its
watersport facilities and nightlife.
The west coast and the interior are
remarkably unspoilt and will appeal
to those who love the wild and
empty spaces. A network of paths
and tracks crisscross this landscape,
giving access to the rugged coast
with dramatic views across to the
mountains of the Pelion Peninsula.
Farming and horticulture are still the
main occupation here, orchards and
fields bounded by pine woods with a
scattering of small traditional cottages.
By contrast, Skiathos Town, has
managed to combine its development
as a tourist centre and busy port with
maintaining its original character of
narrow alleyways, old churches and
Venetian houses. The town comes alive
at night , fortunately with none of the
brashness of other Mediterranean
resorts. Skiathos is a family friendly
island that has succeeded in providing
all the amenities of a popular holiday
destination as well as unspoilt
space for relaxing in quiet unspoilt
surroundings.
The island is part of the Sporades
and because it is one of the main
entry points to the region, exploring
neighbouring Skopelos and Alonissos
as well as the many, smaller and
uninhabited islands by tour boat or
inter-island ferry is simple. Much
of the coastal waters around these
islands have been declared as Marine
Reserves, and regular boat expeditions
leave Skiathos Town to explore the
wild life above and beneath the waves.
There’s never a dull moment on
Skiathos but plenty of opportunity for
that essential component of a Greek
island holiday, relaxation in glorious
surroundings!

Skiathos is without doubt the beach capital of the Sporades Islands, and you might need more

an excellent base! Beaches are nothing without the sea and you couldn’t get much closer than
this lovely villa right on the water’s edge, looking out across to Skiathos Town itself. Steps lead
down straight from the house to a jetty and small private beach. Comfortable, spacious and
perfect for families, all the attractions of this varied small island are within easy reach.
On Skiathos, small is certainly beautiful – and varied. Quite apart from its magnificent beaches,
the interior of the island offers a wealth of walks from gentle evening strolls to a quiet taverna to
longer expeditions exploring the fascinating and largely undeveloped countryside. Exploration
on (and under!) the water is easily accomplished. Regular ferries connect Skiathos with the
other main islands of the Sporades, Skopelos and Alonnisos, both different in character.
Boat hire, snorkeling, and for those with more energy, waterskiing and windsurfing are also
readily available.

Finding the right holiday destination to suit all the family can be difficult. Skiathos provides all

4 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 8 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Skiathos is deservedly the most popular of the Sporades Islands because, despite its relatively
small size, there is something for every one here. Popular beaches, with a wide choice of
watersports, a bustling ferryport and main town, and an interior little changed over the centuries.
Villa Ekavi, situated in an enviable position on a hillside with Vassilias Bay and the Skiathos
Town spread out below makes a comfortable and spacious base for discovering the delights of
this jewel of an island.
With its four bedrooms the house will happily accommodate the larger family or a group of
friends, and of course quiet relaxation beside the private swimming pool whilst the rest of the
family troop off on more energetic pursuits is a attractive option!
With over sixty beaches to choose from, one is most definitely spoilt for choice on Skiathos, but
there is much else to see and do. Regular ferries run between the three main islands, exploring
the coast and interior on foot along traffic-free lanes and ancient paths, exploring the narrow
alleyways and traditional shops of the old quarter of Skiathos Town, or watching the world go
by on the busy waterfront, all these add to the pleasures of a holiday on this fascinating island.

The island’s eponymous capital is
a bustling small port and harbour
on a spectacular bay, with a maze of
narrow paved streets, the ruins of a
Venetian fortress and nearly 125 old
churches with over 360 churches in
total. Rural Skopelos reveals itself
in scattered hamlets of stone built
houses with distinctive silvery grey
slated roofs surrounded by woods
and orchards to rival any in Greece.
The unbroken pine forests and olive
groves that stretch along a major part
of the west coast are one of the island’s
crowning glories. The magical drive
to the other main village, Glossa on
the north west tip of Skopelos, passes
through this forest. The island has a
Tel. 020 8459 0777
number of beaches, mostly quiet, like
the kilometre stretch of tiny white
pebbles at Milia, where the pines grow
right down to the shore, or the fine
sand of Limnonari.
Eating out on Skopelos with fresh
local produce, imaginative cooking
and friendly service is highly
recommended. Fish tavernas in
spectacular locations and ‘ouzeries’
serving local ‘meze’ are a speciality of
the area as is the Skopelos Cheese Pie!
Walking on the island is possible
much later into the peak summer
months than on other islands, due
to the shaded nature of many of
the paths and plentiful springs and
fountains. With no water shortage,
a deep cool bath or long refreshing
shower after a walk or beach session
is not the over indulgence here that it
might be on other drier islands! After
all that, heaven might just be a slice
of Skopelos cheese and vegetable pie
straight out of the oven, fresh local
plums (or even the delicious prunes!)
and a glass of ice cold Retsina beneath
an ancient pine with the sparkling
Aegean beyond!
SKOPELOS
•Glossa •Agios Ioannis
Loutraki•
•Klima
The Island of Reefs, so named because
of its many offshore islets and rocks,
could equally be called the ‘Green
Island’ because of its spectacular
craggy coastline fringed by the pine
trees that are one of the island’s
defining features. Where the pine
forests end, the olive groves begin and
where they end the orchards begin!
Virtually every fruit tree can be found
on Skopelos, although plums are an
island speciality.

SKOPELOS VILLAGE
DELIGHTFUL APARTMENT HOTEL WITHIN AN EASY WALK OF
SKOPELOS TOWN
APARTMENTS • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • TWO SWIMMING POOLS • AIR CONDITIONING
This modern comfortable apartment hotel is conveniently positioned close to the sea front
on the road which eventually winds its way up the mountain. The picturesque centre of old
Skopelos Town and its lively harbour front are an approx fifteen minute stroll along the sea
front promenade which ensures the hotel is pleasantly removed from the bustle of the town.
The apartments are divided between several small two storey buildings that are enclosed in the
‘villages’ lawns and gardens.
SKOPELOS
The buildings reflect the traditional architecture of Skopelos and each apartment has either
one or two bedrooms (a double bed can be requested but not guaranteed) and its own terrace or
balcony, most with at least a side view of the sea. Handsome floor tiles and lovely light curtain
fabrics add a homely feel. Breakfast is available in the bar and lounge area with the wonderful
restaurant ‘Agioli’ serving excellent evening meals.
Keen walkers have plenty of rewarding terrain as the main footpath literally runs from the
doorstep all the way up to Mount Palouki and its famous monasteries. Or if you prefer your
exercise closer at hand, hotel guests can use the adjacent tennis courts for a small fee. All the local
bus routes originate in Skopelos Town, making it possible to explore much of the island without
the need to hire a car. However, if a car is desired our agents based in Skopelos Town will be
happy to organise one for you as well as boat tours to Alonissos and around the island’s beaches,
including the smaller islands of the Marine Park. Skopelos Village is a delightful haven within
walking distance to the harbour front. A fantastically located accommodation which had the
honour of hosting the cast of the 2008 smash hit film ‘Mamma Mia’, during filming on Skopelos.

capitals in the Aegean. With its churches, monasteries’, history and tradition, charming
Skopelos Town is a fascinating place for all. In the heart of the town is the Faros Town House
which overlooks the bustling harbour front. Not many properties can boast such amazing views
from their balconies and what a perfect spot to sit back with a Greek coffee in one hand and a
famous Skopelos cheese pie in the other and watch the town gently come to life.
Faros Town House is only a few metres away from the harbour front which offers a good selection
of shops, kafenions and tavernas serving the catch of the day. There is a spacious yet cosy feel.
The one bedroom apartment is on the first floor and the three bedroom apartment occupies
the upper floors. Both have a living/dining areas with a fully equipped kitchenette. Faros Town
House has been furnished with a modern yet Greek feel. The apartments are ideal for both
couples and families alike but being so close to the bustling harbour front of Skopelos Town you
may experience some noise due to its close proximity to the tavernas and bars.
The one bedroom apartment has a double bed and a sofa bed in the living area which leads out
to the balcony with that view of the harbour. The three bedroom maisonette has three double
beds. The view from the balconies is fantastic, the unique feature of three bedroom apartment
is the wonderful roof terrace which gives a magnificent aspect of the colourful harbour.

MAGNIFICENT VILLA NEAR SKOPELOS TOWN ENJOYING
A MAGICAL PANORAMA
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Skopelos is often called the “Green and Blue” island. This cannot be better illustrated than
on the ‘holy’ mountain of Palouki standing sentinel over Skopelos Bay. Since Byzantine times
it has been the site of many churches and monasteries. Three of the island’s most historic
and important abbeys and nunneries can be found high on its wooded slopes. The view from
its eastern side is breathtaking with the picturesque harbour of Skopelos Town spread out
along a sheltered bay, backed by green hills, pine forests and the azure Aegean Sea beyond.
Making the most of its sublime mountainside location is Villa Thea.
The swimming pool is surrounded by hardwood decking with a lawn spreading out beyond.
Local stone has been used to great effect, both on the terrace walls and slate for the roof.
The modern barbecue area is perfect for al fresco living and may well prove to be the most
popular area of the house. On the ground floor a fully equipped kitchen, an open plan living
and dining room open onto the terracing. Upstairs are three large bedrooms, two doubles and a
twin. A large shower room which includes a washing machine, is shared by all three bedrooms.
SKOPELOS
Villa Thea is perfectly placed for beaches and the exploration of this fascinating island.
Stafylos beach is only a ten minute drive away and for walkers there is an excellent route near
the villa that climbs up the mountain to the monasteries near its summit. Skopelos Town has a
wide choice of tavernas and shops with interesting architecture of the old town to visit as well as
the hundreds of churches and the remains of the Venetian fortress.

Mt Palouki is not only one of the most sacred in the Sporades Islands which is the site of three
ancient monasteries, it also protects the natural harbour of Skopelos Town. Palouki, meaning
pencil in Greek, perhaps due to its profile, narrowing to a sharp point and a string of outer
islands, is criss-crossed by ancient trails connecting the three monasteries higher up the slope
and a stroll along any of these in the cool of the evening just as the lights come on far below and
the sun has dipped behind the hills of the interior is a memorable experience.
Villa Aetoma, is undoubtedly one of the best situated properties on Skopelos.

VILLA RACHES
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
In an elevated position approximately five kilometres from Skopelos town stands Villa Raches;
because of its location the villa is blessed with splendid views over the town and bay from its
many terraces. As if this privileged position wasn’t tempting enough, the villa is owned by local
Spiros and his wife Yianna, who run a wonderful shop in the town selling her own and other
local artists work. Their influence is evident throughout this special villa, with carefully chosen
art objects adding further charm and personality.
Villa Raches is approached by a rough track from the main road, assuring privacy. From the
main entrance you come into the spacious open plan living/dining room and fully equipped
kitchen, which, in spite of modern creature comforts retains an authentic character. Mellow
earth coloured floor tiles, a natural exposed stone wall and high traditional pitched and beamed
ceiling create an inviting atmosphere.
An attractive flight of dark wooden stairs in the lounge leads up to the two sea facing bedrooms.
Both have their own shower rooms, are attractively furnished in dark wood and open out onto
their own balcony with spectacular views. Thanks to Villa Raches’ elevated position a pleasant
sea breeze keeps the property cool even in the height of summer.
There are wonderful country walks close by, but the villa’s setting also makes it perfect for those
who wish to spend time relaxing with a good book and a glass of wine by the pool. In fact the
only time you might want to tear yourself away from the poolside and its gorgeous views is to
prepare a barbecue on the side terrace, perfect for those al fresco meals.

3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS • CAR HIRE
The elevated position of the beautiful Villa Nefeli takes full advantage of the most amazing
landscape towards the old and new villages of Skopelos, one can’t help but marvel at the sight
before you. As you enter the spacious open plan interior of this imposing villa, it is evident that
much thought and care has been taken in its design. The whole house is cool and comfortable;
calming colour schemes combined with traditional features are a gentle reminder that you are
in a unique part of the Aegean.
SKOPELOS
The fully equipped kitchen joins the dining area but it is without doubt that most of your meals
will be enjoyed outdoors on the shaded terrace. There is a double bedroom on the ground
floor with French doors leading out onto the sunny patio and pool area. This is also where the
main bathroom facilities are located. From the ground floor, stairs lead up to a further two
bedrooms, one double and one twin. French doors take you out onto a shared verandah with the
most spectacular panoramic views of this most beautiful part of the Sporades and out over the
stunning Aegean sea.
Outside the view is undoubtedly the dominant feature and it is with this in mind that the
gardens have been landscaped and terraced to not only blend in with the verdant surroundings
but to maximise your enjoyment of the area. The pool enjoys magnificent views out over rural
villages with majestic mountains in the distance. The most popular beach is Stafylos, which is
approximately 15 minutes away by car. Around the hillsides are many donkey trails, fabulous
for exploring the local nature and enjoying a gentle ramble in the most beautiful setting.
This Villa is certainly ideal for families and groups but equally suitable for a lovely retreat so
much so you may not want to leave!
NB: Villa is reached via long unmade rough track.

a chore. The comfortable master bedroom is air-conditioned with its own en-suite bathroom.

A MODERN AND COMFORTABLE VILLA IN AN OUTSTANDING

2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING
Viewed from hills above, Panormos Bay with its crescent of white pebbles separating green
forest and the translucent blues of the sea, is one of the most beautiful coves in the Sporades.
What better place then to enjoy the superb view than Villa Skalopati set in the hillside above
the cluster of houses and shops behind the beach that is Panormos village. The villa enjoys total
privacy with no other buildings overlooking it on either side. Trees behind, the Aegean in front,
dotted with islands stretching as far as Evia in the distance, and all within a few hundred metres
of the village. Seclusion doesn’t often come with this much convenience!
SKOPELOS
A lot of thought has gone into the design of the interior. The open plan ground floor has a well
equipped kitchen and dining/living room, cool yet welcoming, with polished wooden floors and
corner fireplace. The tiled shower and toilet lead off this room. A large picture window beside
the glass patio doors ensures that the incredible view can be enjoyed from inside the house.
A handcrafted stairway leads to the two bedrooms upstairs. A double and a twin, with exposed
beams and wooden ceilings and a separate toilet with wash basin The large landing could
accommodate another bed if necessary. The patio doors open out onto a shaded verandah
and dining area with the swimming pool just a few steps further on set into the tiled terrace
with sun loungers.
Panormos Beach becomes more crowded as the day progresses and tour boats and caiques
arrive from other islands. The village has a wide choice of bars and tavernas and naturally that
ubiquitous Greek institution, the mini-market stocking the required supplies. Quieter beaches
can be found a short drive along the coast in either direction. Villa Skalopati is equally well
placed for exploring the fertile and unspoilt interior of the island.

NEAR GLOSSA
VILLA PLAKA
PERFECTLY POSITIONED VILLA, EXQUISITE VIEWS IN A MOST
GLORIOUS SETTING
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
Created from one of the shards of rock flung into the sea when Zeus’s thunderbolts shattered
Mount Olympus during his epic battle against the Titans, Skopelos today seems a far cry from
its tempestuous mythological creation, and Palio Klima is one of its most delightful small
settlements. Not that the village has since escaped entirely from the wrath of the gods, as it
was destroyed in more recent times by an earthquake but has been carefully restored and
still retains much of its traditional charm, with the added bonus of enjoying perhaps the best
sunsets on the island.
To sit on the front terrace of this lovely villa late in the evening and watch as first the islands of
Evia, Skiathos and then the distant mountains of the Pelion turn from gold to black, as the sky
fills with fire above the “wine dark sea” is one of the great Greek experiences, and even better,
one that is replayed virtually every night!
SKOPELOS
However, Villa Plaka is far more than just a viewpoint for a glorious sunset. Backed by the
famous pine forests of Skopelos and with a daytime view that is equally magnificent and
includes the picturesque harbour of Loutraki and the unspoilt hill village of Glossa, the villa is
not at all remote. With a marvelous sense of space created by the surroundings, the spacious
terracing and private pool complement this unique house. Villa Plaka is traditionally furnished
and has two bedrooms, one double and a twin, with shared family bathroom and an additional
WC off the open plan living/kitchen area.

ALONISSOS
THE UNSPOILT AEGEAN HAVEN WE ALL DREAM OF...
ALONISSOS
The voyage to Alonissos is a minicruise in its own right, passing small
islands and spectacular cliffs. It’s
the perfect way to prepare for your
arrival at the island capital and port of
Patitiri, where you will soon discover
that your arrival on the ferry may well
be the busiest event of the day.
174
Life on Alonissos runs at its own
pace. Rush hour may well mean half
a dozen cars on the road at one time
and a wild night out could be sitting
on your terrace by the pool, a glass of
local wine to hand, star-gazing whilst
the kebabs sizzle on the barbecue!
This is not to say that there is little
to do on the island, far from it. The
offshore islands of Peristera and
Lechoussa and the seas surrounding
them have been designated as a
Marine Park and teem with life both
on and off the water. The hilltop
village and ancient capital of the
island, Chora, a jumble of narrow
alleys, traditional tavernas, shops and
houses is one of the finest viewpoints
in the Sporades and naturally has its
own ruined fortress.
Although only 12kms long and 4kms
wide, with dozens of well-maintained
mule paths criss-cross the island
linking the scattered hamlets and
small fishing villages which are a
walker’s or mountain biker’s paradise;
equally, jostling for a patch of sand
on a crowded beach is unheard of
here, but if the sunbathing palls, then
kayaking, snorkeling and diving are
all available.
Alonissos may seem remote, but it
is a Greek island after all, and the
Spartans have long been confined
to ancient history! The tiny but
picturesque fishing village of Steni
Vala with its lovely harbour and
waterfront tavernas serving fresh
fish straight off the boat is well worth
a visit. Or take an evening stroll up
to Chora in time to watch the sun set
behind the distant Pelion mountains

VILLA PERISTERA
3 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 6 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
There is only one main road on Alonissos, which twists and turns through woodland and olive
groves as it follows the sea on the east coast of the island with tantalising views at every bend.
Only at the picturesque Steni Vala opposite the uninhabited island of Peristera, is there anything
more than a cluster of houses. There are beaches on both sides of the village, easily reached after
a few minutes’ walk around the bay leading through an olive grove. Villa Peristera, set amongst
the trees is just a hundred metres from the water’s edge. Traditionally designed and built out of
local stone, it blends into its surroundings. A large olive tree, which unlike its neighbours has
been left unpruned, shades the barbecue area with its traditional ‘fournos’ grate, chimney and a
stone table. From here a terrace leads in front of the house to the swimming pool.
The villa opens into the kitchen area and large cool comfortable living/dining room leading
out to the front terrace. Opposite the fireplace is an alcove with a useful built in single daybed
behind a decorative, painted wood screen and a small washroom. A natural stone staircase
leads to the first floor bedrooms. The master double bedroom has an en suite shower room and
glorious views from its shaded balcony. The second bedroom has twin beds with a front and side
balcony overlooking the pool. Both bedrooms have high wooden ceilings with open main joists
and beams built in the classical Sporadic style, allowing air to circulate freely.
Throughout the house, antique and modern furniture has been carefully chosen and the walls
are tastefully decorated with old family portraits and other pictures. There is also a separate self
contained studio with double bed, external access, small kitchenette and living area.

KARNAGIO BEACH VILLA
ATTRACTIVE VILLA WITH UNINTERRUPTED SEA VIEWS
2 BEDROOM VILLA • SLEEPS 2 – 4 • PRIVATE SWIMMING POOL • CAR HIRE • AIR CONDITIONING IN BEDROOMS
The Karnagio Beach Villa is perfectly placed to view the wonderful surroundings and perhaps
the sight of occasional passing fisherman. Babakies Bay, where they take the boats out of the
water in the winter, is a stone’s throw away and close by are many secluded little coves waiting to
be rediscovered. By car, the beautiful beach at Agios Dimitrios is only a five minute drive away,
the picturesque fishing harbour of Steni Vala is a mere 10 minute drive whilst Patitiri with its
shops and tavernas is also within easy driving distance.
A special feature of the house, apart from its swimming pool, is the full length shaded veranda
along the front from where the beautiful sea and island views can be enjoyed in cool shade even
on the hottest afternoon. Sun seekers are equally well catered for on the terrace paved with local
stone around the pool. The veranda also serves as an extension of the living area, especially if
the patio doors are kept open to catch the breeze.
ALONISSOS
The interiors traditional styled furniture combines comfort and ease of living with a small
but well equipped kitchen on one side and an open fireplace in the other corner. A curved
staircase leads to the upper floor and its two bedrooms, one twin and one double which enjoy
the same superb views and a large partly shaded balcony. The beds face double patio windows.
Both bedrooms share a shower room and there is also another downstairs off the living room
which should help avoid those family disagreements in the morning!

Appearances can be deceptive!
Although few roads cross the central
mountains, the high villages with
their distinctive tall stone merchants’
houses are all connected to each other
and down to the coast by a network of
ancient trails known as kalderimia.
One such village, Milies is still
connected to the coast by a narrow
gauge railway, designed by an Italian
civil engineer Evaristo de Chirico.
The line crosses the many gorges via a
series of graceful viaducts that formed
a central feature of his son, Georgio’s
famous dream-like paintings. But
there is far more to this fascinating
area than wild forest and mountain.
The claw-like Pelion Peninsula forms
one arm of the almost landlocked
Pagasitic Gulf. This gentler landscape
with its scattered fishing villages,
olive groves, vineyards and excellent
Tel. 020 8459 0777
beaches is more typically Greek than
the mountains behind.
The Aegean coast of the peninsula is
more spectacular. Here, steep streamfilled valleys and ravines end in
tree-lined coves and rocky headlands,
often with small villages such as
Mylopotamos, perched on the steep
hillsides. Every cove, inhabited or not
has its stretch of sand or shingle and
most are connected by kalderimia
that follow the coast.
Volos, one of the major cities and ferry
ports of Greece is the gateway into
The Pelion from the vast plains of
Thessaly. In recent years the city has
been transformed, with new shopping
precincts, an excellent museum and
one of the largest open air markets in
the region.
These days the chances of meeting
a centaur on a mountain path might
be somewhat remote, more likely a
donkey, but The Pelion with its varied
landscapes, fascinating history,
unique architecture and beautiful
coastline is a wonderful and unspoilt
holiday destination.
PELION PENINSULA
AEGEAN S EA
Legendary home of the centaurs, the
mountains of the Pelion Peninsula
are quite simply unique. Covered
in forests of chestnut and beech,
riven by deep gorges, and with very
few settlements they might seem

11 ROOM HOTEL EXCLUSIVE TO IONIAN & AEGEAN ISLAND HOLIDAYS • SLEEPS 2 – 3
SHARED SWIMMING POOL • MOTOR BOAT HIRE OR CAR HIRE (OR COMBINATION OF BOTH)
Pounda Paou, set amongst olive trees overlooking the Pagasitic Gulf is over an hours drive from
of the city of Volos. Sitting beside its lovely swimming pool or down on the private jetty watching
the fishermen casting their nets into the blue waters of the Pagasitic Gulf, it might just as well be
half a world away.
PELION PENINSULA
If your idea of a perfect holiday is freedom from pressure and time to enjoy the simple
things in life, then Pounda Paou will appeal to you. The accommodation is simple, yet
quirky with traditional furnishings all with balconies or terraces offering a variety of views.
Steps and pathways through the garden lead on to the shaded Jacuzzi and swimming pool
with sensational views. There is a sunbathing terrace by the jetty and Paou beach is just a ten
minute walk away. Each morning at breakfast guests are asked if they wish to have dinner at
the property that evening, the hotel has a reputation for its meals, made with fresh, mainly local
ingredients with a menu that varies daily
As the property is isolated, we have included the option of a motor boat or car hire for the
duration of your stay or for the best of both worlds you can choose a three day combination
of both which allows you to explore both by sea and land. The motor boats can be used until
4/5pm each day giving you the freedom to see a completely different aspect of the coastline.
For an alternative choice of tavernas one can venture to the waterside village of Horto around
the headland from Pounda Paou, which is twenty minutes by car quicker by boat, Milina with a
wider choice or Argalasti a ten minute drive from Paou.
NB: Pounda Paou is a child free property. It is however built on a steep hillside, with varying
terraces and therefore is not suitable for those with mobility problems.

MOTOR BOAT HIRE
One of the delights of a holiday in the Greek Islands is the sea.
There are very few places where one cannot see the changing blues
and greens or hear the waves lapping against the shore.
There is something very special about discovering hidden coves and
empty bays in your own boat. The boats are easy to handle and before
you know it, you will be your own skipper for a day on a voyage of
discovery through some of the most beautiful coastal scenery in Greece.
In high summer it is advisable to book ahead. You can choose either
15HP, for that gentle potter along the coast, or 25 - 30HP, with or
without a central steering wheel, with a map to help you explore just
that little bit further.
The minimum pre-booked hire period for 3 consecutive
days. Motor boat hire is booked in advance in order to
secure your boat. As a result of this, we cannot refund
days lost to bad weather.
The price for each boat includes the provision of buoyancy aids, flares,
oars, anchors and a sun canopy. Detailed instructions for operation
and mooring and full local back-up service are also provided.
Fuel is not included.
However, when you hire a motor boat you are obliged to adhere to local
laws which prevent them from venturing into exposed areas or going
to sea in adverse weather conditions. The local agent will explain the
parameters of your sailing area.

Our self-catering properties are all equipped with linen and bath
towels (except beach towels).

washing machines or dishwashers, however there are some exceptions
and details are given in the individual property descriptions.
Irons, ironing boards and hairdryers are also not the norm.
Some of our properties have solar power so water may be tepid rather
than piping hot, especially in the early mornings and at night, but
most do have an electrical backup system.
All our self-catering accommodation without air conditioning will be
provided with fans. Extra fans can be requested at the time of booking.
Our brochure is prepared and the photographs taken well in advance
so some of the décor and facilities may well have been updated or
changed. It is also difficult to describe and photograph each individual
apartment so whilst all the main facilities will be common, the layout
and furnishings may differ slightly.
Maintenance and repairs may need to be undertaken from time to time.
In order to keep properties up to the standards we require our staff may
make regular health, safety and quality control checks, so expect visits
to the properties during your stay. If you do not wish to be disturbed,
please discuss this with your representative. You are responsible for
any breakages or damages caused by you or any member of your party
during your stay in the accommodation. It is your responsibility to leave
the property as you found it. You should advise your local representative
prior to departure so that they can organise repairs or replacements as
to not inconvenience incoming guests.
Please take time to read our ‘Things to do before you go’ booklet, which
is included with your travel documents. It will go some way to enhance
your Greek holiday experience and make your stay more enjoyable.
INTERNET AND WIFI
If an accommodation has internet access this is usually mentioned in
the description. In most cases connections are sufficient for checking
emails and light web browsing. Bandwidth restrictions may apply
if the connections are used for downloading large files or streaming
video content. WiFi is available in most villages and many local cafés
also advertise free connections. Please note we cannot guarantee
WiFi availability as this is dependent on local ISPs, technical issues
etc. This facility does not form part of our contract with you.
WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT FROM YOUR SURROUNDINGS?
Our destinations and properties are all chosen to give you a relaxing
but authentic Ionian Island holiday. Many of our properties are in
beautiful rural areas where you can enjoy the sights and sounds of
the local indigenous wildlife. In some properties you will be staying
within the local community, so their way of life should not only be
observed and enjoyed but also respected.
FURTHER INFORMATION
It should also be remembered that, although we make every effort to
provide all the facilities you would expect from your holiday, you are on
a Mediterranean island and it is possible that from time to time you may
experience such things as a temporary power cut or water shortage.
In low season and on Public Holidays, some of the public facilities may
not be available. Also during local festivals villages that are normally
peaceful may be transformed. Sadly, there are no seasonal building
restrictions on most of the Islands and we have no control over such
matters, but we will endeavour to keep track of any planned long-term
construction and withdraw any properties should they be affected.
Any short-term local ‘DIY’ (such as low level building works) activities
are, however, totally beyond our control. We also have no control over
the opening and closing of local businesses such as cafés and tavernas
at anytime during the season, property information relating to this
information should be used as a guideline only.

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT IN YOUR WELCOME PACK?
We are committed to making your stay in the islands as comfortable
as possible. Many properties are in secluded locations and even
though you may arrive at a reasonable time you may not have had the
opportunity to shop and obtain basic provisions. For this reason we
provide a basic food pack in all self-catered accommodation.
The Welcome Pack: This pack may consist of bread, butter, milk,
jam, tea, coffee, sugar, biscuits, crisps, savoury snacks, soft drinks,
juice, mineral water and a bottle of wine. (or similar items depending
on local supplies).
IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THE LOCAL COMMUNITY ALL THE
PRODUCTS ARE EITHER BOUGHT OR PRODUCED LOCALLY.
WHAT LOCAL SUPPORT IS THERE?
We have our own representatives based in each destination with
offices in Fiskardo (Kefalonia), Vathy (Ithaka), Nidri (Lefkada), Gaios
(Paxos), Corfu Town, Volos (Pelion), Skiathos Town and Skopelos
Town. Our representatives will welcome you at the airport and ensure
your efficient transfer to your accommodation. They will also assist
you in arranging car hire and any excursions you may require.
They will endeavour to visit you at least twice during your stay, if you
so wish, and will be available to offer friendly advice and guidance
in order for you to make the most of your stay. Should you encounter
any difficulties, they are just a telephone call away and have the local
contacts needed to solve any problems.
If you are not happy with any aspect of your holiday please do not wait
until you get home to tell us. Advising our local representative can
help resolve most problems.
JUST HOW INDEPENDENT YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE IS ENTIRELY
UP TO YOU, BUT WE WILL BE THERE SHOULD YOU NEED US. OUR
REPRESENTATIVES ARE NOT PAID COMMISSION, THEY ARE ON
HAND TO PROVIDE IMPARTIAL ADVICE WHERE IT IS NEEDED.
OUR INVOLVEMENT IN SUSTAINABLE TOURISM
We are committed to the conservation and preservation of the natural
environment. With strong local connections, we feel we have a moral
responsibility towards the environment and the local community.

community, introducing you to the products and services available
locally, from traditional wine and olive oil producers to honey farmers.

beauty of our region, including regular beach cleaning, footpath
clearance and management of the wildlife.

that this has an important part to play in ensuring that the qualities
that attracted you to the area in the first place are preserved.

further, after all, they are there to assist you to and to help
you get the maximum enjoyment from your holiday.

BOOKING CONDITIONS
These Booking Conditions and the Further Information contained in this brochure
form the basis of your contract with Ionian Island Holidays Ltd also trading as
Aegean Island Holidays. Please read them carefully as they set out our respective
rights and obligations. These booking conditions have been formulated as a result
of our responsibilities under law. They do not affect your statutory rights.
Your Financial Protection
When you buy an ATOL protected air holiday package or flight from Ionian Island Holidays
Limited (also trading as Aegean Island Holidays) you will receive a Confirmation Invoice and
ATOL Certificate from us, confirming your arrangements and your protection under our Air
Travel Organiser’s Licence number 5853. In the unlikely event of our insolvency, the CAA will
ensure that you are not stranded abroad and will arrange to refund any money you have paid
to us for an advance booking. For further information visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk
1) What happens when you make a reservation?
All bookings are made and accepted subject to the terms set out in these conditions
and the information detailed in this supplement. When you or your travel agent make the
booking a contract is made, and we will confirm your booking as soon as we receive your
instructions verbally, electronically or in writing. You must then pay the deposit together with
any applicable insurance premium. An invoice will be sent to you, or your travel agent, for the
balance of monies owing. If intended departure is within 8 weeks, then the total holiday cost,
including the insurance premium, is payable in full at the time of booking.
2) Prices and surcharges
The price of your holiday was calculated using exchange rates quoted in the Financial Times
Guide to World Currencies on 12 October 2015. in relation to the following currencies £1
sterling being €1.35 Changes in transportation costs, including the cost of fuel, duties, taxes
or fees chargeable for services such as landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees
at ports and airports and exchange rates, mean that the price of your travel arrangements
may change after you have booked. However, there will be no charge within 30 days of your
departure. We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the
price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment
charges. You will be charged for the amount over and above that, plus an administration
charge of £1.00 per person together with an amount to cover agents’ commission. If this means
that you have to pay an increase of more than 10% of the price of your travel arrangements,
you will have the option of accepting a change to another holiday if we are able to offer one
(if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality
you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all
monies paid, except for any amendment charges. We will consider an appropriate refund of
insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy.
Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 14days
from the issue date printed on your final invoice. Should the price of your holiday go down due
to the changes mentioned above, by more than 2% of the holiday cost, them any refund due
will be paid to you. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased
in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due
to contractual and other protection in place.
Please check your invoice carefully to ensure that it reflects your intended booking.
3) How to book, what to pay and when?
The person, in whose name the booking is made, acts on behalf of all other persons named,
must be over 18 years of age and becomes responsible to us for all payments in respect of the
booking. Your reservation will be confirmed upon payment of a deposit of £150 per person
plus any applicable insurance premium. It is a condition of booking that you are adequately
insured on your holiday. We allow 5 working days from confirmation of the booking for monies
to reach us. If after that period monies have not been received, the holiday is cancelled and
cancellation charges will apply. We must receive the balance of the holiday cost at least 8
weeks before the departure date. Please also ensure you send payment in sufficient time for us
to pay in and clear it through your bank, otherwise your booking will be cancelled, and you will
be liable to pay cancellation charges as shown in Condition (12). If your holiday is arranged
through our authorised travel agents and not directly with us, then all monies paid to your
Travel Agent are held by them as an Agent of Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays Limited.
Late Bookings: For all bookings made within 8 weeks of departure, the holiday is confirmed as
soon as you or your Travel Agent gives verbally over the telephone, or by e-mail confirmation.
Therefore if you subsequently cancel your booking, cancellation charges as shown in
Condition (12) apply. Full payment for the holiday, including insurance premiums, must be
made at the time of booking in order to secure the reservation.
4) What do we charge for children, toddlers and babies?
BOOKING CONDITIONS
The conditions below apply to all children travelling with Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays
Limited.
a) Definitions: an ‘infant’ is a child under the age of 2 on the return of such child to the UK.
A ‘child’ is a person under the age of 16 on the return of such child to the UK. Handling
Agents at airports will specifically check the child’s date of birth with passport entries.
b) Price reductions for children are listed on page 161 and apply to children sharing with two
full fare paying adults.
c) The adult price is based on the number of adults and children sharing the accommodation.
d) Infants travel for £50, cots, highchairs and baby seats are provided free of charge, if
requested at the time of booking. Passengers booking places for infants, where the infant is
found to be outside the age limits specified above, will be required to pay the full price plus
an amendment fee, before any member of the party will be allowed to board the aircraft.
Any child booked as an infant who is, in fact, over the age of two on the date of RETURN
travel, will be refused permission to board if there are insufficient seats on the aircraft, as airline
regulations stipulate that children over two must have their own seats.
5) What happens if we change your holiday?
We plan our holidays many months in advance and although it is unlikely that we will have to
make any changes to confirmed bookings, it can happen. Changes are usually of a minor
nature, and we will advise you or your travel agent at the earliest possible date, if there is
time, before your departure. Flight timings and carriers in this brochure are subject to change,
confirmed details will be sent with your tickets. Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays reserves the
right to alter the brochure flight departure time to a different time within a period of twelve
hours of the notified time of departure, without responsibility for any loss or damage arising
from such a change. Airport authorities or other factors beyond our control may vary the
scheduling of departure times after this brochure is printed and the details given are for your
guidance only. We are unable to accept any liability for any delay to your flight, whether
the delay or cancellation is caused by adverse weather conditions, the action of air traffic
controllers, the action of airport authorities or governments, the rescheduling of times by the
airline, mechanical breakdown, strike or industrial action or otherwise. In such circumstances
208 www.ionianislandholidays.com
you may be able to make a claim under your insurance policy. We reserve the right to alter
the aircraft type or airline operating your flight, this is not a material change, and we will be
under no obligation to notify you of any such change. If a major change occurs, provided it
does not arise from events beyond our control, you will have the choice of (a) accepting the
changed arrangements, (b) purchasing another available holiday from us, or (c) cancelling
or accepting the cancellation and receiving a full refund of all monies paid to us. In all cases
we will pay compensation on the scale shown. A ‘major change’ is any of the following made
before the day of departure: change of departure airport, holiday area, change of flight
departure time by 12 hours or more, substitution of accommodation originally booked with
one of a lower price or official grading.
If you wish, we will give you a credit voucher against a future Ionian & Aegean Island Holiday
instead of cash.

*NB: For children invoiced at reduced rates, compensation will be paid on a pro-rata basis.
Compensation payments apply to all holidays booked including reduced price or special
offer holidays. However, in the case of reduced price or special offer holidays, compensation is
50% of the above rate. They do not apply to changes caused as a result of force majeure, war,
threat of war, riots, civil strife or disturbance, industrial disputes, terrorist activity, natural disasters,
fire, technical problems to transport, closure or disruption of airspace or airports or seaports,
cancellation of scheduled airline or sea services, or other events outside our control. On rare
occasions it may be necessary to change your holiday on arrival in resort. In this event every
effort will be made to provide accommodation of the same or higher standard in the same or
similar type resort.
6) What happens if Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays are forced
to cancel your holiday?
We reserve the right, in any circumstance, to cancel your holiday. However, in no case will
we cancel your holiday less than 8 weeks before the scheduled departure date, except for
the reasons detailed in Conditions (2) and (7). If due to events beyond our control, we can
no longer provide the holiday originally booked, we will return your money, or offer you an
alternative holiday of a comparable standard.
7) What are Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays liable for?
We will arrange for you to receive the services that make up your chosen holiday and that we
confirm. These services will be provided either directly by us or through independent suppliers
contracted by us. We are responsible for making sure that each part of the holiday you book
with us is provided to a reasonable standard and was as advertised by us (or changed and
accepted by you). If any part of your holiday is not provided as described and this spoils your
holiday, we will pay you appropriate compensation (see “Section 5 - What happens if we
change your holiday”).
We accept responsibility for the acts and/or omissions of our employees, agents, and suppliers
while acting within the scope of, or in the course of their employment with us. We also accept
responsibility for any deficiencies in the services we are contractually obliged to provide, or the
failure of such services to reach a reasonable standard. We are unable to accept responsibility
for any aspect of your holiday affected by matters over which we have no control. These
include war or threat of war, riots and civil strife, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster,
earthquakes, weather conditions, fire, flood, drought, industrial disputes, government action,
airport regulations and closures or technical transportation problems which may affect the
service of hotels, villas or apartments abroad or the scheduling of aircraft, of other transport
or other circumstances amounting to force majeure. Our travel insurance does provide cover
in respect of some of these eventualities. We do not accept responsibility in respect of death,
bodily injury or illness of any person taking one of our holidays, except when caused by the
negligent acts and/or omissions of our employees, agents, suppliers or sub-contractors while
acting within the scope of, or in the course of their employment, agency contract or supply of
sub-contract.
We have done our best to ensure that our brochure is accurate at the time of going to
print. However, you will appreciate that we do not own the accommodation, airlines or
other services and facilities that you will be using and changes may occur. On occasions,
especially during low season, certain facilities/amenities such as water sports, swimming
pools, restaurants etc, may not be open/Available as advertised, due to maintenance,
weather conditions, lack of demand or other reasons outside our control. We also have no
control over local businesses opening/closing at anytime throughout the season. We will give
what assistance we can to a client, who through mishap suffers illness, personal injury or death
during the period of the holiday, arising out of the mishap, subject to our reasonable discretion
and providing that you request it within 90 days of the occurrence of the mishap, we will meet
the initial legal costs associated with such proceedings. This is limited to £5,000 per person/
£25,000 per booking form, and may be granted as a loan if you have suitable insurance cover,
or if there is any claim for the costs against a third party.
8) Personal injury 1
This section covers injury, illness or death while you are using the holiday services that we have
arranged for you, including our accommodation. We have no direct control over the way our
suppliers provide their services but everyone employed or contracted by us or by our suppliers
is expected to carry out their duties properly. If they do not carry out their duties properly (or at
all) and that fault results in your injury, illness or death, we may make a payment to you. We will
not make any payment if your injury, illness or death was caused by an event or circumstances
which the person who caused it could not have predicted or avoided even if they had taken
all necessary and due care. We will not make any payment if your illness, injury or death was
your own fault. If we do make a payment, it will be similar to one you would receive under
English law in an English court.
We will make such payments for injury, illness or death on the basis that you accept that:
• You must tell us and the supplier involved about your injury or illness while you are in the resort
(see section 18). You should also write to our Customer Services at the address given in section
18 about your claim within 28 days of coming home from your holiday to allow us to investigate
it properly. Please include a letter about your injury or illness from your doctor if you can.
• You should transfer to us any rights you have against the supplier or any other person.
• You should co-operate fully with us if we or our insurers want to enforce those rights.
• Any payments we make may be limited in accordance with international conventions.
• We ask you to transfer your rights to us so that we can claim back from suppliers any payments
we make to you, plus any legal or other costs. We will not make a profit from this. If we get
back from the supplier more than we have paid you plus these costs, we will give the extra
money to you.
BOOKING CONDITIONS
This section covers damages, injury, illness or death which is not connected with the
arrangements made by us. If you or someone on your holiday booking is injured, falls ill or
dies while taking part in an activity which is not part of the holiday, or you need to incur
unpredictable extra expenses for which we are not liable we will try to help if we can (see
“section 7 – What we are liable for”). For example, we can help by:
• Providing translation services
• Communicating with authorities and others in foreign resorts
• Recommending foreign lawyers (if necessary)
• Explaining the procedures you should follow - telling you of any time limits
We will help everyone on your holiday booking up to a total cost to us of £5,000 as long as the
following conditions are met:
• You must ask us for help within three months of coming back from holiday
• You must make a claim under your insurance policy’s legal expenses or other appropriate
section
• You must show us proof that your insurance company has received your claim and, if you
get back the cost of legal or other expenses, you must repay us any money we have spent
in helping you.
Where the services in question consist of carriage by air or sea, our obligations and
liabilities are limited in the manner provided by international conventions in respect of air and
sea carriers. Be advised that in the event that you or a member of your party is disruptive or
behaving in an unsociable manner, the company will have no further liability or responsibility
to you in respect of accommodation or flights.
9) Conduct while travelling
We reserve the right to refuse to accept you as a customer or continue dealing with you if your
behaviour is disruptive, affects other travellers, is threatening or abusive towards our staff,
agents in the UK, in resort, on the telephone, in writing or in person. If the Captain of your flight
or any of our resort staff believes that you could be disruptive, they can also refuse to permit
you to proceed with your travel arrangements. If this means you are not allowed to board the
flight outbound from the UK, we will treat your booking as cancelled by you from that moment,
and you will have to pay full cancellation charges (see section 12). If this occurs overseas
then you will become responsible for your own return home and any other members of your
group who cannot or will not travel without you. In any of these circumstances no refunds or
compensation will be paid to you and we may make a claim against you for any costs and
expenses incurred as a result of your behaviour e.g. the cost of diverting an aircraft or boat to
remove you. Criminal proceedings may also be instigated.
10) Extra persons in villas or apartments
The number of people stipulated in the confirmation of booking must not be exceeded unless
approval is obtained from the Company’s local representative or from the Company’s London
Office and the appropriate payment made. Any unauthorised guests found to be staying at
the property will be asked to leave.
11) What happens if you change your holiday plans?
If you wish to change your holiday in any way, and we can accept the change, the following
charges will apply. Timescales refer to the date of receipt of your instructions in writing, and
cancellation charges are detailed in condition (12).
More than 56 days before departure – £25 per change.
Less than 56 days before departure – Cancellation charges apply.
Please Note:
(i) No changes are allowed from a full price holiday to a special offer holiday.
(ii) N o changes are allowed from one season to another. This would be treated as a
cancellation.
(iii) If there is a change in the number of persons booked on the holiday, the price will be
recalculated on the basis of the amended party size, subject to availability. If one person
in a twin room cancels we reserve the right to pass on the full cost of the twin room to the
person using the room. Any increase in price per person as a result of a part cancellation is
not a cancellation charge and is not covered by our insurance. A separate cancellation
charge as detailed in Condition (12) will be made against the cancelled element, and the
booking will be re-invoiced accordingly.
(iv)Name changes: Names can be changed at £25 per name up to 28 days prior to the
departure date (only applicable to our charter flights). N.B. On scheduled flights no name
changes can be accepted.
12) And if you cancel?
If you wish to cancel your holiday, this must be done in a written communication by the person in
whose name the holiday is invoiced (or the travel agent through which the booking was made).
In the event of cancellation or part cancellation, the following charges become payable:
Period before departure date that
Cancellation charge as % of total holiday
communication received
cost less insurance premium
More than 56 days
Deposit Only
55 - 29 days
50%
28 - 22 days 60%
0 - 21 days
100%
Cancellations must be notified in writing to us or your travel agent and commence from date
received by ionian & aegean island holidays.
NB: If the reason for cancellation falls within the terms of your insurance policy, then the
insurance company will normally refund any such charges to you. The insurance premium is
forfeited on cancellation. Please note this if you do not turn up for your flight, unless you inform
us otherwise, your booking will be treated as a cancellation and normal cancellation charges
of 100% will apply.
13) What if you break or damage anything on your holiday?
Should a client be responsible for damage to or loss of any item of the accommodation
inventory during their occupation of the holiday accommodation, a charge will be made
locally to cover the cost of replacement or repair. Please make this known to your Resort
Representative prior to your departure. This will enable us to put things right for the new arrivals.
Where any breakages have occurred and payment is due our representative will issue an
official company receipt specifying details on the amount paid.
14) Beaches
Beaches, the sea, roads and areas around holiday accommodation do not form part of the
package and have not been inspected.
15) Car hire
You must also pay for any excess on car hire insurance, parking fines and petrol consumed. It
is your responsibility to either resolve any dispute regarding damage to the vehicle, fuel and
parking fines locally and make full payment to our local car hire agent before your departure.
16) Local services
Any services or excursions purchased locally in resort, even if these are arranged by our
representative or agent, do not form any part of this contract.
17) Motor boat hire and sailing
All boating and sailing facilities are offered subject to availability and are subject to local Greek
laws and the directions of the local harbourmaster. The Company cannot be held responsible
for loss of boat hire due to adverse weather conditions. You are responsible for any damage
caused to your hired motorboat, as these boats only have third party insurance cover. Any
dispute regarding boat hire including petrol charges and damage to the boat must be settled
locally before your departure.
18) What happens if you complain about your holiday?
If a problem arises during your holiday, it is important that you advise the supplier and/
or representative at the earliest opportunity, who will endeavour to put things right. If your
complaint cannot be resolved locally, your representative will ask you to complete a Client
Liaison form, the original to be kept by you and a copy will be forwarded to our Head Office.
This form records your grievance or complaint made whilst in resort. Should you wish to take the
matter further, please email our Customer Relations at [email protected] or write to
Customer Relations, Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays, Olympia House, Armitage Road, London
NW11 8RQ, or your travel agent, within 28 days of returning home quoting your booking reference
number. Unless there is a valid reason, we will not consider Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays Ltd
liable for any complaint that was not initially registered with our representative ‘in-resort’. It is
unlikely that you will have a complaint that cannot be settled amicably however should you wish
to write to us please allow 28 days from written receipt of correspondence in which to investigate
and respond to your grievance. Please include an email address so we may acknowledge
receipt of your correspondence.
Disputes arising out of, or in connection with, this contract which cannot be amicably settled,
may be referred to arbitration, if the client so wishes, under an independent scheme arranged
by The Association of British Travel Agents Ltd and administered by the Chartered Institute
of Arbitrators. The scheme provides for a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on
documents alone, with restricted liability on the client in respect of costs. Full details will be
provided on request or can be obtained from the ABTA Ltd, website (www.abta.com). The
Scheme does not apply to claims for an amount greater than £5,000 per person. There is also a
limit of £15,000 per booking. Neither does it apply to claims, which are solely in respect of physical
injury or illness or their consequences. The scheme can however deal with compensation claims
which include an element of minor injury or illness subject to a limit of £1,000 on the amount the
arbitrator can award per person in respect of this element. The application for arbitration and
Statement of Claim must be received by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators within nine months
of the date of return from the holiday. Outside this time limit, arbitration under the scheme may
still be available if the company agrees, but the ABTA Code does not require such agreement.
Full details are available from ABTA Ltd, 30 Park Street, London SE1 9EQ.
19) What happens if you lose or damage a piece of luggage?
Under the terms of various international conventions, while your personal effects and baggage
are in the hands of the carrier, the carrier is liable for the safety of such baggage. If your baggage
is lost or damaged between the time of airport check-in and the recovery of the baggage
from the carousel at the end of the flight, then the carrier is under a duty to pay compensation.
The amount of compensation is determined by international convention, details of which are
on the reverse of your flight tickets. In case of loss or damage, a Property Irregularity Report
must be completed before you leave the airport. Should your claim be in excess of the airline’s
compensation level, then you should approach your insurers to see if they will pay the difference.
It is your responsibility to ensure that all your belongings are loaded onto the correct transfer
coach, minibus, taxi or hire car. At all other times when your personal effects and/or baggage
are in the custody, care and control of Ionian & Aegean Island Holidays, we will be responsible
for the safety of such items. However, we will not accept liability for claims in excess of £400.
Items of high individual value should be adequately insured, as neither Ionian & Aegean Island
Holidays nor its carriers will accept liability for loss or damage.
20) What rules apply to flights including flight delays?
Civil Aviation Authority regulations specify that both the outbound and inbound sections of the
air ticket must be used. In the event that the outbound flight is not used, the passenger will not
be allowed to return on the inbound charter flight. Should anyone check-in less than 90 minutes
before the ticketed departure time, admission to the flight is likely to be refused. Should anyone
be refused admission to the flight or to the destination country by the airline or government
authority, then we are powerless to assist and cannot be held responsible. In all such cases
we will not be liable for any costs involved. International flights can be operated by Monarch
Airlines, Small Planet, Germania, Thomas Cook, Aegean Airlines, British Airways, Thomson or
any other airline operating CAA licensed aircraft. When you travel with a carrier, the Conditions
of Carriage of that carrier apply, some of which limit liability. Such conditions are the subject
of international agreements between countries. We draw your attention to the conditions
regarding delayed flights and point out that we cannot accept any additional responsibility for
delays over those stipulated by the carrier. This brochure is the responsibility of the tour operator.
It is not issued on behalf of, and does not commit, the airline(s) mentioned herein, or any airline
whose services are used in the course of the tour(s).
21) Data protection act
In order to process you booking and to ensure that your travel arrangements run smoothly
and meet your requirements, we need to use the information you provide such as name and
address and any special needs/dietary requirements, etc. We take full responsibility for ensuring
that proper security measures are in place to protect your information. We must pass the
information onto our relevant suppliers of your travel arrangements such as airlines, hotels,
transport companies, etc. The information may also be provided to security or credit checking
companies, public authorities such as customs and immigration, if required by them, or as
required by law. We will not, however, pass any information onto any person not responsible for
part of your travel arrangements. This applies to any sensitive information that you give to us such
as details of any disabilities, or dietary or religious requirements. If we cannot pass this information
to the relevant suppliers, whether in the EEA or not, we cannot provide your booking. In making
this booking, you consent to this information being passed onto the relevant suppliers.
22) Contract
This contract is made on the terms of these Booking Conditions, which are governed by English
law, and both parties shall submit to the jurisdiction of the English courts. These Booking Conditions
are valid until 31 October 2016. Issue date November 2015, errors and omissions excepted.
