Experience the Greek island of Lefkada from this villa with panoramic views over the Ionian. Though the decor is a little dated in places, the postcard-perfect views from the en-suite bedrooms are a highlight, as is the outside with its terrace, pool and sun loungers. There’s even a separate children’s pool making it great for family holidays. Outside of the home, hike the nearby trails and take advantage of the mountainous location. Nidri village is a five-minute drive, while the Dimosari Waterfalls (1.8 kilometres) and Nidri Beach (1.3 kilometres) are beauty spots not to be missed.

Built into a Lefkada hillside – in a rather harmonious fashion we might add – this sensational villa is blessed with the sort of incredible views at which you'll never tire of gawping. From the address, there's an uninterrupted panorama of the Ionian Sea, Nydri Gulf and the neighbouring island of Skorpios.

As you would hope, there are plenty of spots from which you can admire this wonderful landscape. If the weather's on the warmer side, you can take in the surroundings from the pair of swimming pools or out on one of the myriad terraces and balconies. When the sun's gone down, you can choose instead to sink back into the Jacuzzi or retire next to the fire pit for a little bit of added cosiness.

Although you'll want to spend as much time out in the open air as possible here, you won't be disappointed when you finally have to head inside. There are two wings to the property, plus a self-contained studio apartment, which means that there's an abundance of private space, even for larger groups. The design throughout is gloriously contemporary, with sleek surfaces, a minimalist approach to adornment and oodles of natural light from the large windows. If you ever have a hankering for the more rustic side of Greek accommodation, the pair of wood-burning fireplaces might just scratch that itch.

In the local village, there are a couple of restaurants to keep you satiated, but there's a much wider choice in the tourist town of Nydri, about twenty minutes' drive away. In the same direction, Dessimi Beach takes just over a quarter of an hour to reach in the car.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Child Friendly

Surrounded by Lefkada's olive trees, lush forests and rocky terrain, this villa has a perfect position high up in the hills. From this vantage point, views of the Ionian are a given – and if you're anything like us, you'll be keen to spend all day and all night making the most of the scenery. How could you not, with Vlycho Bay and the islands of Scorpios, Meganisi and Atokos glistening on the horizon?

Enjoy relaxing afternoons poolside, flitting between dips in the pool, cocktails on the lounge chairs, and naps in the hammock. Come suppertime, fire up the built-in barbecue and dine alfresco on classic Grecian fare, the setting sun and sparkling sea creating the perfect backdrop.

Five minutes away by car is the charming port town of Nydri, one of the busiest on the island's east coast. Here, you can hop on a boat tour, walk to the Nydri Waterfalls or sample the local cuisine at the beachfront bars and restaurants. Nydri Beach is 4 kilometres away, but for even more postcard-worthy beaches, head west to Pefkoulia or Egremni Beach – both reachable in an hour's drive.

Recently renovated, you'll immediately notice the modern touch that's been given to this rural home – from the sleek glass-screened balconies to the handmade furniture, casement windows and hotel-quality bedding. Natural light pours into the home, thanks to the sliding doors framing the idyllic sea views beyond the pool. With direct access onto the terraces from each of the three bedrooms, an alfresco dining area with covered seating and a sprawling pool area with several sun loungers, this home encourages seamless outdoor living. 

Head out to explore and in addition to the nearby beach, the lively town of Nydri, with plenty of fantastic tavernas and buzzing bars, lies just 3km from your villa.

With its pine-covered mountains and sun-drenched shoreline, the island of Lefkada is a nature lover’s haven, a beach lover’s paradise and the perfect setting for a rejuvenating escape. And perched high in the hills, just a short drive from Nidri village, this home will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired from the moment of arrival. 

From the mesmerising views and calm-Greek aesthetics to the infinity pool and abundance of space, every detail celebrates the unique magic of this location. 

Feel a wonderful sense of awe as you watch the sunrise from the balcony, take a refreshing dip in the pool and spend lazy afternoons on a lounger. By evening, the terrace transforms into an intimate gathering place – perfect for dreamy drinks and Greek-inspired feasts as the stars fill the sky. And when you’re ready to retreat back inside, the five bedrooms are styled with everything you could need for a restorative night’s rest.

From here, days can be spent embracing the light and carefree spirit of the island. It’s just a short drive to the glistening coastline and beaches, while Lefkada’s Old Town with its vibrant bars and restaurants, is just a thirty-minute drive away.

Located on the east coast of Lefkada, this villa provides wild views of the countryside and Ionian Sea and the unrestrained comfort of home. Unhurried mornings begin in the open-plan yet cosy living space – sip a coffee on the soft leather sofa before prepping a Greek-inspired breakfast in the fully-equipped kitchen. When you’re ready to soak up the sunshine, spill out onto the terrace and call dibs on a poolside lounger.

After a leisurely swim, wind through the hills to the heart of Nydri, a charming town packed with cafes, tavernas and souvenir shops. Stroll along the promenade with an ice cream in hand, stretch out on Perigiali Beach or hop on the ferry and explore the nearby island of Meganisi. In the evening, return home for a glass of wine on the terrace as the sky turns apricot.

Wild Sea

With its traditional interiors and modern trimmings, this hillside villa on Lefkada’s east coast is a place to switch off and embrace the go-slow way of life. After a blissful slumber in the fuss-free bedrooms, sit down to a light breakfast on the shaded terrace before spending the morning lounging by the pool and hot tub. Should you want to steal a moment for yourself, slink off to the swing seat and get lost in a good book. 

Come together for a spot of lunch in the open-plan kitchen diner or jump in the car and take the short five-minute drive into the heart of Nydri for its authentic tavernas. Take it easy with a gentle stroll along the promenade or lie back and soak up the golden sunshine on Perigiali Beach. If you’re feeling adventurous, however, explore the Dimosari Waterfalls, just 1.8 kilometres away. And when it’s time to call it a day, return home for a snifter of Ouzo on the balcony as dusk descends on the indigo Ionian Sea.

Desk / Workplace

Courtyard

With one of the best views we've seen on this beautiful island, this newly-built home is an understated slice of magic. Set on a green hillside overlooking the glittering sea, it'll be an effort to do anything but sit and stare when you first arrive.

Part of a small cluster of similar homes, this one stands apart from the others so it's perfect if privacy is high on your agenda. Handbuilt by the owner in a traditional style, there are two floors – each with its own kitchen and independent entrance but linked internally by stairs – so it offers some flexibility. And best of all, there's plenty of outside space to enjoy that view from. Walk across to your private pool and comfy sun loungers await on the stone terrace, surrounded by fragrant wild herbs and olive trees, all with staggering views – especially at sunset.

Elsewhere, five comfortable bedrooms – three upstairs and two on the ground floor – make this home big enough for a large group of friends or a couple of families holidaying together. With a shared living room and a choice of dining spots outside, it's easy to spend time all together or to find some privacy.

For the more adventurous, a steep hike leads down to a little private cove, where clear waters and a white pebble beach are yours to enjoy. Not the easiest walk and likely to take you around twenty-five minutes, it's well worth it to dive into those turquoise waters. The owner even runs yoga and wellness retreats where you're encouraged to get closer to nature.

With some of the more popular beaches within a twenty-minute drive, along with the pretty, hillside village of Athani, there's lots to see and do away from the villa too.

   

Sunset & Sea Lilies 

Overlooking an assembly of islands in the Ionian Sea, this breezy villa has several balconies and a private pool boasting panoramic views across Nydri. Spanning three stories, it won't be suitable for those with limited mobility, and the interiors are minimalistic and dated in some places. That said, it's relatively roomy and the sun-kissed outdoor spaces are perfect for socialising – the veranda makes a great spot for family barbecues. As it's located high in the mountains, you'll definitely need a car – although the beach and centre of Nydri are just over 1 kilometre away, where you can hop on a boat to visit the surrounding islands.

The Eternal Blue

Situated on Lefkada’s east coast, this tranquil hillside villa with Ionian Sea views guarantees a relaxing stay for a family or group of friends. It’s the perfect base to explore the island – you’re a five-minute car ride from the heart of Nydri, 1.8 kilometres from the Dimosari Waterfalls and a short drive from picturesque Nikiana. When you’re not unwinding on Perigiali Beach or tucking into Greek delicacies in a local taverna, you’ll be bobbing about in your home’s private pool and hot tub before soaking up the sunshine on a lounger. At dusk, the covered terrace is the ideal spot to kick back with a glass of something chilled.

The interiors are traditional and inviting – the wood-panelled ceiling adds a touch of cosiness while the tile floors keep things cool underfoot on hot days. There’s a fully-equipped kitchen for rustling up something tasty and quiet bedrooms that guarantee a restful night’s sleep at the end of another idyllic day.

Changing Times

A breathtaking stay awaits you at this divine villa. It sits in a peaceful and picturesque spot, nestled away on a hillside just a short drive from Lefkada's capital city. Built with Byzantine design elements in mind, this majestic home is easy to mistake for an ancient monastery – albeit, more suited to sun-worshippers than monks.

The elevated position means this home benefits from ocean views in one direction and mountain vistas in the other, and it certainly isn't short on places to sit back, relax and soak in these stunning surroundings. We especially love the outdoor pool, complete with in-pool loungers for ultimate relaxation – and the flower-filled courtyard is the perfect place for your morning coffee.

Heaven's Light

Board Games

Herb Garden

Hammock

On the outside, this charming villa has an old-world appeal, with its red wooden shutters, rust-coloured tegula roof and classic stone façade. But step inside and you'll find bright and open living spaces, sleek bathrooms  (one even has a jacuzzi-style tub) and bedrooms as comfortable as they are stylish. We think it's the perfect family home – and with views like that, it's hard to imagine a more idyllic getaway.

Days here are endlessly dreamy. Wake up to the sight of the Sivota Bay in the distance, then pad out onto the balcony to savour an espresso in the morning air. Afternoons are best spent lounging on the daybed (an excellent spot for a catnap in the sun), splashing in the glimmering pool and swinging in the hammock underneath the shady trees. Follow the path down to the sea when you fancy a dip in the ocean, or stroll through the lush gardens, picking fresh vegetables, ripened fruit and aromatic herbs to use for the night's dinner. And speaking of meals, there's no better place to tuck into a feast than the outdoor table, sharing a bottle of wine as the evening slowly fades.

It's only a five-minute drive into town, where local tavernas and coffee shops sit along the bay. Many beautiful sandy beaches are also within easy reach, including Afteli (a fifteen-minute drive), Ammoussa (reachable in twenty minutes) and Paralia Mikros Gialos (twenty-two minutes by car), so there’ll never be a dull day in paradise.

Crown of Seaweed

This understated villa is designed with the surrounding landscape in mind, complementing the nature and quiet beauty of Lefkas Island. Interiors are laidback and breezy, with neutral tones, shabby-chic furnishings and soothing blue tones. Windows frame the seascape-like paintings in the living space and glass doors in the kitchen open wide onto a neat terrace – it’s the perfect spot for long, lazy dinners that last well into the evening. 

Float about in the cool water of your private pool before grabbing your beach essentials and taking a drive to Porto Katsiki for an afternoon spent lounging on the soft sands. When hunger strikes, head into the charming village of Vasiliki for a slap-up feast in a cosy taverna. Finish the day with a blazing sunset on Vasiliki Beach before heading home for a blissful sleep in comfortable beds.

Call of the Sea

This lovely stone villa sits amid centuries-old olive trees, creating a serene atmosphere for relaxing. The infinity pool and wooden sun deck are ideal for whiling away lazy afternoons, while the pergola-shaded summer kitchen has everything you need for meals outside. Although the en-suite bedrooms lack some character, we like the lofty beamed ceilings and glass sliding doors in the open-plan living area – especially since the latter offer panoramas of the pool. If you want to explore, this home is 700 meters from Agios Ioannis' sandy beach and ten minutes from the town of Lefkas with shops, museums, old churches, restaurants and bars.

Modern Wonders

Outdoor Pool

Desk

To say the views from this villa are breathtaking is an understatement. With sweeping blue vistas over the sea and the islands hugging the coast, this hillside retreat is all about the scenery. While we think the views are best enjoyed from the gated pool and dining terrace, Ionian eyefuls can still be admired from inside, even if the functional contemporary decor isn’t quite as spectacular. With easy access to a clutch of beaches and boat trips on offer from Nidri’s port, you’ve got everything you need here for your very own Greek odyssey. 


Blue Blue Moon

Standing on top of a hill on the southern coastline of Lefkas, this stone villa not only has a beautiful view of the dazzling Ionian Sea, but the neighbouring islands of Ithaca and Kefalonia can also be spotted.

It's a truly idyllic backdrop against which guests can embrace the alfresco way of life, whether that's paddling about in the swimming pool, soaking up the sunshine while reading on a lounger or dining under the pergola. There's a stone barbecue to help make the last of these a reality, too.

When you eventually head into the home, you'll find an interior that adds a modern spin to the traditional whitewashed design synonymous with Greek islands. Two living rooms provide plenty of space in which to relax, while the Jacuzzi bathtub in one of the ensuites is another superb option.

We're guessing you didn't come all the way to Greece not to visit the seaside and Vasiliki beach, plus a small selection of restaurants and bars, is only ten minutes away in the car. There's another smaller sandy spot that can be reached by walking forty-five minutes from the home, as well.



Majesty & Marble

Throws

With every new morning spent here comes another day of blissful relaxation and reconnecting with nature. Overlooking Vlicho Bay and perched on an olive grove, this breathtaking villa is sure to impress with its sea and mountain views alone. However, with luxurious finishing touches, inspiring designs and a sun-drenched terrace, it's safe to say this home offers an abundance of incredible features to enjoy. 

Inside and on the terrace, wooden elements blend into the natural environment creating a soothing space that radiates peace and serenity. We love the minimal designs earthy colour scheme of the interiors that seamlessly complement the scenes found outside on the terrace in harmony. 

One of the biggest standout features of the outdoor area is the large metal columns and wooden beams of the pergola, which creates a unique and stylish design element that shades following the movement of the sun. Spend your evenings up on the wrap-around balcony terrace, which presents an elevated viewing platform to take in the sunset. As the balmy sky changes colour over the bay, you can't help but feel energised and rejuvenated by the surrounding natural beauty. 

Just a few minutes walk down to Dessimi Beach – you'll have the local attractions within easy reach. Why not hire a boat and sail around the island? And with the seaside village of Vlicho also just 2 kilometres away and the waterfront tavernas of Geni, only a five-minute drive away – there is plenty to see and do beyond the realms from the panoramic paradise of the villa. That's if you can tear yourself away from those views, of course. 

New Morning

Sea, sand and sun rays – what more could you want from an Aegean escape? This villa on the unspoiled island of Lefkada has it all, and more. Wake up to revitalising ocean views, then drift outside to feel the heat on your skin. The private pool is a blissful spot to gaze out at boats crawling across the horizon. Post-swim, lay on a lounger and tune in to the Greek chorus of cicadas.

The home has been built from natural stone from the area and roofed with old Byzantine tiles, giving it an authentically earthy feel. Inside, your hosts have modernised it with simple furnishings and a calming palette. You'll find everything you need to whip up a hearty breakfast or Greek-style lunch to enjoy on the shaded terrace. 

If you feel the pull of the sea, you'll be glad to hear the nearest beach, Vasiliki, is just a ten-minute drive away. En route, take in breathtaking views across the bay to dense greenery, dotted with traditional stone houses.

Grecian Dream

Beach Essentials

Located just a one-minute walk from the Blue Flag Agios Ioannis Beach in Lefkada, this handsome villa has everything you need for a blissful coastal break. 
 
The home’s outdoor space is where you’ll want to while away sunny hours taking dips in the pool and cooling off beneath the pergola’s shade, while evenings call for alfresco barbecue feasts followed by nightcaps on the bedrooms’ private balconies. 
 
Contemporary meets traditional in the open-plan living space where the sofa invites you to kick back with a good book and a glass of Greek wine, and the kitchen beckons feasts aplenty when you’re not cooking up a storm on the outdoor grill. 
 
When you’re not chilling out at home, visit the beach just a stone’s throw away where windsurfing conditions are top-notch, or visit the Lefkada Windmills, a seven-minute stroll away. You’re also a five-minute drive (or a thirty-five-minute walk) from Lefkada’s centre where the Archaeological Museum of Lefkada invites you to spend an afternoon learning about the island’s rich history. 


Floating on a Breeze

Games Room

Games Console

Just outside the main town, this villa on Lefkas puts castle ruins, long sandy beaches and streets filled with tavernas and family-run restaurants all within striking distance. It’s a ten-minute walk to the sandy beach at Agios Ioannis, where ancient windmills stand tall against the blue sky. The sea is so blue here, it’s easy to see why Lefkas is known as the Caribbean of Greece. Fifteen minutes’ walk in the other direction sees you in the atmospheric streets of Lefkas’ main town. 

This villa is set in perfectly manicured gardens where the scent of lavender floats on the sea breeze. Plush outdoor lounges are tucked into the side of the house and shaded by wooden pergolas. At the heart of it all, the shimmering swimming pool invites you for a dip on hot days. Come lunchtime, a summer kitchen can provide the alfresco feast at the long dining table outside.

Heading inside, the living area is open-plan and social with a wall of glass sliding back to blend the terrace into the mix. Everything in here feels light-wood and Scandi-chic, from dining table to kitchen counters. In the bonus basement you’ve got a games room with ping pong and a dedicated gym for those that want to keep fit. 

Mandala Flow

Located just a few metres from the vast sandy beach and turquoise waters of Agios Ioannis, this pink-coloured two-storey villa promises an effortless retreat for a family or small group of friends. 

Days begin outside, sipping a fresh Greek coffee on your pretty little balcony overlooking the shimmering sea. Lap up the gentle breeze and tranquillity of your natural surroundings, allowing yourself to adopt the slow pace of the island. Swim a couple of leisurely lengths before picking out a sun lounger for a serious tanning session, or perhaps you'll head to the beach for your dose of sand and surf. You're well catered for when it comes to alfresco areas, with a shaded dining table that comfortably seats the entire group, plus an outdoor kitchen for seamless outdoor living. 

Inside, oak floors and marble-tiled bathrooms add that extra level of luxury, while the homespun furnishings and decorative details will have you feeling welcome from the get-go. You'll have no trouble getting a good night's sleep in the comfortable bedrooms that benefit from direct access to the balcony. 

Head out to explore and in addition to the nearby beach, the charming town of Lefkas has plenty of fantastic tavernas and lively bars, just fifteen minutes away on foot. 

Salmon Fishing

Offering plenty of outdoor space, we couldn't believe this two-storey Lefkada villa was only for four guests. Inside, the home is a little by-the-numbers, and the living area isn't the most spacious around, but it's plenty comfortable for when the sun gets too much. In the bedrooms, the Juliette balconies are a nice touch, and you can look forward to slowly waking up to the sun pouring through the large windows. With only a few places to eat nearby, you'll need a car here – though the nearest is only 100 yards away, you'll find plenty with a short drive.


This charming villa is located just 100 meters from the beach of Agios Ioannis, one of the best spots for kite surfing and windsurfing in Lefkada. The villa features an open-plan living room and kitchen that opens onto a garden and patio with a private pool. Guests can relax on the sunbeds, chairs, or dining table under the big pergola for shade by the pool. The luxury furnished living room contains satellite TV, DVD, CD, and radio. Upstairs there are two bedrooms with balconies providing a spectacular view of the open sea. The villa is air-conditioned and heated throughout and has oak floors throughout the house and marble-tiled bathrooms. An extra folding bed can be added to the living room if required. The location is perfect for exploring Lefkada Town or visiting mainland Greece's Preveza Airport, Nikopolis ruins, Igoumenitsa ferry port, Ioannina, or Athens.

The Essence of Earth

It’s not just its octagonal shape that gives this home an edge. It’s got a lot going for it, from the walled Jacuzzi garden to the so-called ‘hammock tower’, one of many spots from which to soak up this villa’s incredible mountain views. The interior isn’t quite as striking but there’s still a lot to like, particularly the kitchen which is perfect for cooking in groups. And in terms of location, you’re just a five-minute drive from the centre of Nydri, rumoured to be home to Homer’s palace of Odysseus.  

Euclidean Geometry

Set back from nearby Nydri, this villa sits amid an olive grove, keeping relaxation at the forefront of your holiday with its minimalist interior design. Not only will you find a pool outside, but there are several spots to dine alfresco and kick your feet up after a road trip. Celebrating a special occasion? A concierge seeks to help you plan parties at home, and you can discuss tours and excursions too. Within driving distance, sandy beaches and scenic waterfalls are waiting.

The Greek Game

A pink palace that towers over the green hillside, this striking abode is the perfect place to watch the beauty of a Greek sunset. Settle by the pool or under the veranda to witness the orange and red blend of colour. For the early-risers, the cool energy of sunrise is just as magical.

Of course, there's much more to this villa than the breathtaking views. Various shades of pink decorate the interior, from the chic artwork to the vivid chairs. Complementing the light tones, multiple splashes of colour enhance the exuberant vibe.

Stroll out of the villa and the sea of colour continues. Bright flowers are interspersed between fresh greenery, embellishing a charming outdoor space. Sunbathe by the pool or sip on your coffee on the open-air table and feel refreshed with each passing moment.

Whatever your daytime activity, make sure to relax into the romance of the evening. Grill meat and halloumi on the BBQ, enjoying each bite whilst sharing stories under the veranda. For an even more tranquil experience, alleviate any worries in the comfort of the indoor jacuzzi.



 

Pink Sunsets

Nestled into the hillside, overlooking the glittering Ionian Sea, this bright and boho-chic villa offers tranquillity and comfort in a postcard-perfect setting. We loved the laidback interiors – the neutral colour scheme and natural textures are instantly calming. Wake up feeling refreshed in pared-back bedrooms then tuck into a traditional Greek breakfast in the open-plan living space. Throw open the glass doors to let in a fresh, salt-tinged breeze. 

In the lull before lunchtime, soak up the glorious sunshine from the patio loungers or cool off with a gentle swim in the private pool. When it’s time for something to eat, take the quick five-minute drive into the charming fishing village of Vasiliki. Dine in waterside tavernas framed by blooms of bougainvillaea and follow with a stroll along the golden sands of Vasiliki Beach. And when the day draws to a close, head home to watch an unforgettable sunset from your terrace. We think it’s best enjoyed with a glass of your favourite tipple in hand.

Laconian Thyme

This home on the sunny island of Lefkada is perfect for two couples seeking a romantic getaway. While it’s not exactly within walking distance of any beaches, the panoramic vistas more than compensate for it. Speaking of, did we mention the two double bedrooms benefit from spectacular views? With its private infinity pool with Jacuzzi, outdoor kitchenette and alfresco dining table, this home has everything you need for an enjoyable holiday. It’s only 3km from the beach and situated in Lefkada town, where you can explore bustling shops, charming restaurants and vibrant nightlife.  

To the Water's Edge

Cafetiere

Private Washing Machine

Beach / Pool Towels

Fenced Garden

A few steps from the sands of Perigiali – a golden beach set against a breathtaking mountain backdrop, this waterfront villa overlooks the Ionian Sea and the Sparti and Skorpios islands. Aside from the colourful taverns on your doorstep, delightful Nidri is only a five-minute drive away. Alternatively, twenty-five minutes down the road, the capital Lefkada Town offers ice cream parlours and waterside cafes.

A minimalist interior design welcomes you into this modern home, where every room leads you outside. Greet each morning in your bright kitchen, preparing Greek breakfasts of fruits and yoghurt. Whether you're splashing around the pool or sipping ouzo from the comfort of your hot tub, we think you'll be spending most of your time beneath blue skies. If you're staying with little ones, you'll even find family-favourite toys and games here to keep the kids entertained. Just imagine curling up at this outdoor coffee table and watching a glorious sunset after a fun-filled day of sightseeing.

Rejoice the Tide

A haven of craggy coves, translucent waters and endless olive groves, Lefkada will welcome you with open arms. And by staying at this modern villa, you'll experience the best the island has to offer. Beyond the heavenly infinity pool, sweeping views and comfortable outdoor seating, the home's interiors are fresh, contemporary, and designed to put you at ease from the get-go.

After a morning of soaking up sun rays on the terrace, walk just fifteen minutes to Dessimi beach. This halcyon bay is a popular spot for snorkelling – see if you can spot a resident squid or octopus beneath the translucent waters. The island's waterfront capital, Lefkada, is a twenty-five-minute drive away. Here, you'll find a colourful assortment of traditional tavernas, unique shopping haunts and a stunning beach within easy reach.

Return home for an evening dip before preparing a Greek feast – or hiring a professional chef, with the help of your host – and dining al fresco as the sun sets over the inky ocean.

Joy to Sea

Surrounded by olive groves and dense forest, the scent of pine and cedar lingers in the air at this deluxe villa. From the jutting hilltop terrace the view out over sparkling Dessimi Bay, flanked by verdant hills, is simply stunning. Enjoy it from the cool of the infinity pool, or on a lounger in the sun. Secret terraces and verandas are furnished with macrame hanging chairs, hammocks and sofas providing many a boho-luxe spot to enjoy a good book. The first-floor balcony is the perfect spot to take in the mountain and sea view, preferably with a cocktail in hand.

It feels as though the interiors have been designed with nature in mind. Driftwood sculptures, macrame cushions and wicker chairs and lampshades create a palette of raw wood and white. It all draws the eye to the view from floor to ceiling glass, which can be rolled back to blend the living room with the terrace. The kitchen is minimalist but feels luxurious in dove-grey with everything tucked away behind cupboards. While bedrooms benefit from glass doors onto patios and balconies.

This one’s for a beachy break with the closest sandy bay a five-minute walk away at Dessimi. And if you fancy dining out, the charming town of Nidri is just a ten-minute drive.

Bayside Lookout

Settle into this charming villa, just a two-minute walk from the beach, with all of the peace and quiet you could ever need. Days begin on the balcony with a freshly brewed cup of Greek coffee, while gazing out at the shimmering Ionian Sea in the distance. Swim a few lengths in your private pool and laze the hours away relaxing on a lounger in the hot Mediterranean sunshine. When lunchtime beckons, gather the group for a traditional mezze platter and feast together under the shaded pergola. 

Inside, oak floors, marble touches and an open fireplace keep things cosy, while the stylish decorative details create a boho-chic feel that's light and airy throughout. After a quick snooze in the comfortable bedrooms, grab your towel and take the short walk down to Agios Ioannis beach for a fun-filled day sprawled out on the sand. When you fancy heading out for dinner one night, Lefkas Town is a short taxi across the bridge, where you'll find authentic tavernas and lively bars. 

Greek Theatrics

Sitting above the Ionian, this villa offers a private slice of Lefkadan paradise. Though a few steps are around the villa, it’s primarily spread across one glass-walled level, perfect for soaking up the sea vistas. The inside provides plenty of space to cook up dinners with your loved ones and unwind by the fireplace on cooler evenings, though the outside is what really caught our attention. The outdoor space has been designed for socialising – there’s an outdoor lounge, dining area, infinity pool and built-in hot tub. And when you’re ready to explore, you’re just a short drive from the pristine sand beaches, limestone cliffs and historical sites.

Sun Umbrellas

Nestled in the small village of Perigiali, surrounded by quiet beaches and striking mountains, this charming villa awaits. Boasting sensational views over Skorpios Island, this home offers several spacious terraces that allow you fully immerse yourself in the spectacular scenery around you. 

Start your days with a refreshing dip in the private pool before heading off to explore Lefkada. If you don't want to venture too far, there's a beach just 700 metres away. Still, if the excitement of the island's lively resorts is calling your name, Passa and Nidri are within easy distance, offering golden sands, emerald waters, and some great restaurants and bars.

After a day of swimming and sunbathing on the shores, pick up some local seafood on the way home. Jump in the poolside shower to re-energise yourself then fire up the barbecue. There's nothing quite like an alfresco feast to round off a busy day of exploring, washed down with a glass of wine. Post-dinner, take a long relaxing bubble bath then sit on the balcony to watch the sun disappear over the Ionian Sea. 





Shores of Lefkada

Overlooking the deep blue of Sivota Bay, this charming stone villa is where nature and tradition meet modern comforts. We love the home’s pretty red shutters that mirror the deep scarlet of the garden’s climbing roses – an outdoor haven where a glistening pool awaits. Spend your afternoons taking dips in its waters while enjoying views across the bay before catching some rays on the perfectly placed loungers or on the day bed while indulging in a good book and a cold drink. 
 
The outdoor table beckons starlit barbecue feasts and gloriously sunny breakfasts, while inside your home, you’ll find plenty of board games and entertainment should the sun get too hot. Factor in the comfortable bedrooms with their dreamy sea vistas, as well as their beautiful en-suite stone-carved showers and you’ve got everything you need for true holiday bliss. 
 
Outside of your home, Afteli Beach is a fifteen-minute drive away, Sivota is seven minutes away by car and bustling Lefkada is a forty-minute drive from your door.

Located on Lefkada – one of the most breathtaking Greek islands – this home can be found on the very east coast where the seaside town of Nidri is surrounded by natural beauty. Other than the views, you can also expect to find authentic tavernas and bustling coffee shops that you’ll certainly want to visit after you’ve popped into the souvenir shops. With some of the most stunning beaches no further than thirty minutes by car – some are far closer and reachable on foot – you can spend lazy days listening to the waves lapping the shore as you soak in the sun. That is if you even make it out the door, because this home is as much of a gem as the island it’s on. 

Cool and bright with a neutral colour palette, each of the bedrooms open up onto balconies, allowing you to constantly stay in touch with the spectacular views on offer here. Step out onto one of the balconies at dusk to enjoy your coffee with the sunrise. Spend days on the sunloungers or in the egg chair with your nose in a novel, or make use of the floating daybed as a unique reading spot. Take a dip in the infinity pool, enjoy a meze platter alfresco, and absorb the tranquillity as you take the time to unwind.

Whispering Olive

This brand-new villa has four spacious double bedrooms, and can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests, ideal for a large family holiday or groups of friends sharing. The one hundred and twenty-three square metre villa is built over two storeys and is constructed out of classic Mediterranean whitewashed walls and local stone, with glass-fronted balconies, that give uninterrupted views over the azure Ionian Sea...

Sea Breeze Haven

Perched on a hillside overlooking the glistening waters of the Ionian and a fifteen-minute walk outside the village of Agios Nikita, this beautiful villa offers you a chance to relax and unwind on the gorgeous Greek island of Lefkada.

Step inside, and you'll find three bedrooms on the ground floor, each with an elegant curved bed that's built into the very fabric of the building, plus a mix of luxurious materials and some more rustic touches that combine to create a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. 

The elegant simplicity continues upstairs, where you'll find a well-equipped kitchen with direct access to a scenic balcony and an abundance of natural light, all situated beneath a soaring vaulted ceiling. However, the crowning glory of the space, and the reason for this home's upsidedown layout, are the jaw-dropping panoramas over the sea towards Corfu. In addition to the balcony, a stunning infinity pool offers a picturesque place to retreat from the heat of the day.

Less well-known than neighbouring islands Corfu and Kefalonia, Lefkada packs a punch when it comes to its beaches. With secluded bays, white sand and crystal-clear seas, it's got all the ingredients for an idyllic escape. In particular, the island's western coast is set to dazzle with its beautiful beaches.

Ionian Sunset

It's likely that one of the first things you'll want to do when arriving here is to jump in the pool. And since the entire villa is set up to enjoy the private terrace – you don't have to be a big swimmer to make the most of this home. Instead, find some peace and quiet on one of the sun loungers around the pool – as the views from here overlook the blissful mountainous landscape and olive groves all around. Also found just next to the pool area is a convenient outdoor dining area – lovely for homemade Greek meals and barbecues in the sun.  

Inside modern home comforts are balanced in perfect harmony with the traditional infrastructure of the villa. From the stone walls to the exposed wooden beams – admire the home's original character, all while making the most of its modern luxuries. 

Positioned just a two-minute walk away from Ligia Port and only five minutes away from the beach – the location couldn't be more on point either. When exploring Ligia, you'll get to experience the true essence of life in Greece, with seafood taverns lined around the natural bay. Come evening time – there is nothing more idyllic than sitting by the water as the sun sets and enjoying fresh fare caught by the local fishermen.

Spread out over three levels, this immaculate hilltop villa dazzles guests with awe-inspiring views through floor-to-ceiling windows over the nearby village of Kariotes and the mainland. 

A luxurious open layout on the middle level provides several spots for your group to hang out together, with plenty of space to claim a corner to yourself. Step through the sliding doors for seamless access to the poolside patio and outdoor seating areas, where you're welcome to bask beneath clear blue skies or linger in the shade if the heat of the day proves a little too much.

Groups of couples will appreciate the privacy of the four bedrooms. A vast en-suite guestroom takes up the home's entire top level and offers a spectacular panorama, with two additional king-size bedrooms set across the home's middle and lower levels. Finally, a fourth room and separate sofa bed can be found in a self-contained studio.

Those tempted to leave this splendidly secluded spot will be rewarded with crystal-clear seas, secluded coves and dramatic white cliffs along the coast. Meanwhile, breathtaking woodland, challenging hikes and authentic villages characterise the island's unspoiled interior.

Nearby, the maze-like streets of Lefkada are well worth exploring. You can easily while away an afternoon and evening perusing its charming boutiques, enjoying a drink overlooking its yacht-lined marina, and dining in its traditional tavernas.
