Located in the village of Vanato, this beautiful villa is a dreamy place to spend your vacation. With a fabulous range of amenities, plenty of charm, and an excellent location just a short drive away from Zakynthos Town and the coast, you're sure to fall in love with this little patch of heaven. 

The bright and spacious living area, with its exposed stone walls and vaulted wooden ceiling, is the perfect blend of old and new. You'll love kicking back and relaxing in these serene surroundings, before slipping on your sandals and heading outside. Challenge your guests to a game of ping-pong or pool, before cooling off in the sparkling swimming pool. There are plenty of sun loungers where you can catch some rays, and the outdoor grill makes it easy to cook up an evening feast to enjoy on the patio. 

From here, you can take a short drive to the resort town of Tsilivi, where you'll find a blue flag beach and a selection of water sports to try. Lively Zakynthos Town is only 3km away, and offers a selection of seafood restaurants, chic bars, and pretty winding streets. And, for the best photographs, take the 2km drive up Bochali Hill, which gives you an incredible view across the town and the sea beyond.

For those who appreciate traditional charm, and who want to stay in a more authentic village setting, this comfortable home is spacious, stone-clad and ever-so private. Surrounded by olive groves and farmland, it's tucked away in the village of Vanato and feels far from the busy resorts – yet it's just 3km from Zakynthos Town and the long sandy beaches of Tsilivi. 

All arranged on the ground floor, this place is full of character – we love the fireplace, the vaulted timber ceilings and the numerous patio doors that allow most of the rooms to open out to the garden. There's a modern, fully kitted-out kitchen, a built-in barbecue outside and tables both indoors and out. And the master bedroom is a real treat, with its vast space easily fitting not one but two king-size beds pushed together for the ultimate luxury. Step outside and your flat lawns are perfect for kids to play on, with a private pool, sun loungers and plenty of privacy thanks to walls and screen hedges.

Private Parking

Surrounded by vineyards, this home ticks the box on tranquillity, but just because it’s secluded doesn’t mean it's boring. You’ll find the town centre and its buzzing nightlife only a short drive away, and you can spend the next day rehydrating in the shade of a beach umbrella on Tsilivi. Or, if it’s caffeine you need, take a short stroll to one of several coffee shops and bakeries nearby. Although spacious enough, the house isn’t large, so when you need a little extra breathing room, venture into the garden or open the bifold doors separating the living room from the swimming pool for fresh air.

Nestled in the gardens of an exclusive estate, this luxury villa boasts views of Tsilivi bay and a path straight to the beach. The ground-floor bedroom gives accessibility to guests with limited mobility, and floor-to-ceiling windows lead to the heated pool. You'll have a range of services at your fingertips, from private chefs to spa and beauty treatments at the estate's shared spa facility, to ensure your stay is a memorable one. The estate offers parking, and we recommend having a car for trips down to Zakynthos with its beach and port.

Surrounded by fruit trees and olive groves, days at this villa are meant to be spent outside in the sunshine. Whether you prefer a morning swim or a midnight dip under the stars, the pool is the perfect place to cool off and relax. Enjoy an afternoon stroll through the grounds, collecting fresh eggs for breakfast, picking vegetables from the garden and taking the kids to meet the animals on the seasonal hobby farm. Come dinnertime, fire up the barbecue grill, open a bottle of wine and eat outside on the terrace. The views alone are worth staying for – Zakynthos town, the cliffs at Chrystal beach and the small island of Pelouz are all visible from the balcony – but the cosy living space, comfortable bedrooms and fully-stocked kitchen make staying here a breeze.

When you crave a seaside day, hop in the car and drive ten minutes to Laganas Beach or for a daytime excursion, rent a boat and visit the caves on Marathonisi Island. Lively Zante Town is only fifteen minutes by car if you're in the mood for nightclubs, gourmet eateries and sightseeing – although there are plenty of tavernas and beachfront restaurants nearby if you're not up for a drive.

Where Soul & Spirit Fly

This peaceful villa is tucked away in the countryside, yet only a short drive to the beach. With a private pool, shaded balcony and alfresco eating area, it’ll be easy to adopt a laid-back Greek lifestyle here. Located near the village of Galaro, at the heart of Zakynthos, you’ll be perfectly placed to explore the island. And if you’d like help deciding what to do, your host can arrange a variety of activities including excursions, watersports and bike tours. It’s worth noting that at full occupancy five guests will be sleeping on sofa beds, some of which are located in bedrooms where other guests will also be sleeping, so this layout might not work for everyone.

Surrounded on all sides by lush greenery and sea views, this villa offers something truly magical, the convenience of being just a short walk away from the hustle and bustle of Zante, while enjoying complete peace and privacy from the outside world in your own Grecian utopia. Clean lines, white walls and luxurious furnishings offer a fresh, welcoming atmosphere to a home brimming with possibilities. 

For those who revel in relaxation, pool-side sun loungers offer the perfect oasis to soak up those mid-day rays before cooling off in the sparkling blue waters of the private pool. Guests seeking a little more excitement will be over the moon with the facilities provided in the games room, complete with pool table, home theatre, table football, air hockey and darts, along with a fully-equipped home gym. And of course, no Zakynthian holiday would be complete without luxurious alfresco dining, overlooking the spectacular sunset over glittering horizons.

Child Friendly

Located on the lush green island of Zakynthos – and with direct access to the sea – this unique villa is a great choice for a family getaway or holiday with friends. The home has been decorated in neutral tones and is spread across two levels with no lift access – so may not be suitable for individuals with reduced mobility. Guests are free to use the gym equipment and will benefit from a fully equipped kitchen area, as well as brick-built BBQ facilities for alfresco dining. We love the ocean views this villa offers, as well as the private infinity pool – complete with a hydromassage feature. We recommend hiring a car for your stay so you can explore the island with ease.

Nestled amidst the glittering waters of the Ionian Sea on the picturesque island of Zakynthos lies this beautifully sophisticated villa, granting you the privacy and freedom you're looking for on holiday. Greet the morning sun with some laps in the private pool beside the calm ocean, and enjoy breakfast outside on the terrace. While you won't find a traditional lounge in this home, the living room lends itself perfectly to family game nights or planning your next adventure in the evening over some drinks. When it comes to food, you'll have the choice of a home-cooked meal from the well-equipped kitchen indoors or the traditional village-style wooden oven and barbecue outside, where you'll have the perfect view of the sunset over the Ionian Sea. For those who need to get some work done remotely before they can enjoy their holiday, there are no less than three dining tables where you can set up a laptop and get into the flow of things.

Get the most out of your trip to one of the sunniest islands in the Mediterranean with the nearby sandy gold beaches and crystal clear turquoise waters where you can enjoy the sand between your toes or head out onto the water on a boat tour of the island. Bring your hiking boots and traverse the stunning landscape and discover a whole host of hiking trails and walks through nature unlike anything else. In the evening, perch yourself by the telescope on the terrace and end your day revelling in the beauty of the night sky.

The Legend of Luxury

Netflix

Surrounded by olive groves and situated a five-minute walk from Boukas Beach, this stone villa offers peace and quiet away from the buzz of Zante town. Inside, it’s modern yet charming with a farmhouse-style kitchen and quaint patterned fabrics. Drop your bags in the unfussy bedrooms before heading out into the garden to soak up the golden Mediterranean sunshine.

Pick out a lounger or plunge into the pool and when you start to feel peckish, fire up the barbecue ready for a slap-up Greek-inspired lunch. When you’re itching to explore, call upon the help of your host and embark on a yachting tour of the island’s east coast. Or why not head north to Skinari, a forty-seven-minute drive away, for boat trips to the famous Shipwreck Cove and Blue Caves.

This is not just a villa, this is a full-on retreat. Set in the secluded Zakynthos countryside, it’s still only a few moments into Zakynthos Town (an eight-minute drive) where you’ll find buzzing bars, winding shopping streets and restaurants galore.  The villa itself combines Greecian rusticana with old-world grandeur, with a touch of 21st-century modernity thrown in. It’s set like a manor in sprawling grounds where you’ll find a huge free-form swimming pool with a sunken fire pit in the middle, a full outdoor kitchen under cover, terrace dining for the whole group and even a cabana-style massage room. That’s not to mention the myriad loungers and outdoor sofas spread across patios and lawns. There’s no denying the interior is grand – a huge chandelier lights the double-height lounge, the master bathroom has golden fixtures and plush bedrooms are illuminated by candelabra. Apart from the leisure spots – a gourmet kitchen with a sunny breakfast spot, long dining table for big festive gatherings and state-of-the-art entertaining sitting rooms – there’s an executive-style office area on the mezzanine with everything you need to work remotely. On top of all this, a 24-hour concierge service is available to book yacht charters, island tours, in-villa massages and a private chef if you want to be truly pampered.

Effortlessly cool, this villa is more than up to the task of competing with the incredible sea views here. With two open-plan living areas, you can break off into smaller groups before coming together at the shaded outdoor dining area overlooking the sea – book a chef through your host and spend more time with a cocktail in hand. Each bedroom features a view of the ocean or the garden, meaning everyone is happy with the sleeping arrangements. And although we wouldn’t blame you for staying at home the entire time, nearby you’ll find the home of famed poet Dionysios Solomos, perfect for literature buffs. For everyone else, the nearest beach is just over half a kilometre away.

The Archangel

Set on a hillside, surrounded with olive and cypress trees, this impressive stone villa is split into four apartments – yours being the largest and most modern. Sharing a vast amount of outdoor space, you'll have a private section of the terrace where you can take in the incredible views over breakfast each morning and a shared pool that's surrounded by lawns dotted with sun loungers and parasols.

From this rather special spot you can gaze out across the lush forests to the nearby villages and all the way to Zakynthos Town and the sea – it feels as though the whole island is laid out before you. Set in beautiful gardens and boasting an exceptional outdoor kitchen – shared among the apartments – it's the kind of place where you'll want to eat outdoors and take in the views at every meal. The show even continues into the night as the sun goes down and the island's lights begin to glimmer.

Inside, it's a comfortable and surprisingly modern space with room for four in the two bedrooms – and sofa beds for a further two in the living room. There's a well kitted-out kitchen and smart, fresh decor. Within easy reach of all the island's best beaches and tourist spots, yet inland enough to feel remote and peaceful, it's a great choice.

Horizon Point

Amidst endless rows of olive groves, vineyards, and flourishing green fields that stretch as far as the eye can see rests this Zakynthos oasis filled with charm, character and blissful serenity. 

Warm colours, modern furnishings and quirky designs create a welcoming space to enjoy with contentment. While the interior presents a cool and inviting home to find refuge away from the sun, the exterior in the garden is sure to appeal to guests the most. 

From the bedroom suites, step straight out from the exterior door and onto the sunkissed terrace area, filled with grassy lawned patches, Mediterranean plants and flowers and a large refreshing swimming pool at its centre. Enjoy barbecued meals out on the elevated veranda terrace before gathering around the pergola come evening time on the comfortable couches with a glass of wine in hand. 

Outside of the home, lap up the local culinary delights and vibrant nightlife of Zakynthos town (5 kilometres away), or opt for a more relaxing time in the local area of Aprilla. Explore the crystal clear waters where you may even catch a glimpse of the protected Caretta sea turtles with a day trip out to Kalamaki Beach – 3.5 kilometres away. Or why not sign up for a boat tour of the island, stopping at the famous Shipwreck beach – one of Europe's most beautiful secluded beaches?

This gorgeous villa is set amongst the olive trees and grape vines on the outskirts of Tsilivi. You'll have a quiet and luxurious stay with your own private pool, outdoor dining space, outdoor shower and a gorgeous day bed for relaxing under the hot Greek sun. Whether you're travelling for leisure, adventure, or simply a change of scenery while you work remotely, you'll be able to have a stylish and truly tranquil stay here without having to compromise on privacy or luxury. Go for a dip in the pool, then rinse off in the outdoor shower and let the sun dry you off on the sun loungers. Then fire up the barbecue in the afternoon for everyone to dine poolside by the olive groves.

You won't have to leave the villa to have the time of your life – but if you do, you'll be just a short stroll away from the nearest shop, and a little longer to the nearest beach, sandy and golden. You'll find a resort centre nearby which hosts plenty more shops, bars and restaurants for you to take advantage of during your stay, as well as amenities for the whole family like mini golf and a water park. In the evening, head back to your beautiful villa and watch the stars from the terrace with drinks, as you toast to a day well spent.

This villa combines a beach and spa break on the island of Zakynthos. Within the private estate, you’ll find a wellness centre for massages and hydrotherapy treatments, while a lounger-lined sandy beach awaits at the end of a private path. Your host can arrange breakfast deliveries, or a private chef service here – so all you’ve got to worry about is whether you cool off in the sea or in the private pool. Glass sliding doors blend the barrier between the poolside terrace and the sleek living room and the upstairs bedroom has a stunning view of the sea. 

The Peony Blossom

Nestled in a valley of vineyards and olive groves, this tranquil country house estate, just a ten-minute drive away from Tsilivi Beach, offers an authentic taste of Zakynthos. It is set in the historic village of Agios Kyrykos, which boasts strong ties to some of the island's best wineries. The estate itself also has an impressive wine heritage, having harvested one of the most popular grape varieties within the region for the best part of two centuries. We recommend popping by the village for a bottle of the good stuff, best enjoyed perched by the pool at sunset, glass in hand, gazing out to the fruit trees kissing the horizon. 

Though reminiscent of classic manor houses, the villa is newly-built, offering modern interiors with enough space to accommodate eight guests. In the lounge, floor-to-ceiling doors open up to the glorious sundeck, which offers a pool and hydro-massage, as well as a barbecue and a large dining table – perfect for alfresco dining. Perhaps the star of the show, though, is the home's heavenly views of the natural landscape, spanning uninterrupted as far as the eye can see.

This villa is a really special home. It can be found in Machairado village – an almost untouched part of Zakynthos at the heart of the island. The home is on a vast plot of land, tucked away amid acres of lush greenery so if peace and quiet are what you’re craving, you’re in luck. 

You could easily spend your whole stay on the property, with your every need catered for. Hire a private chef and enjoy your meals at any one of the many dining areas in the grounds – we’re particularly fond of the tables on the covered terrace, where you can shelter from the midday sun and still enjoy the views all the way to the mountains. A huge brick barbecue sits alongside its own bar area to the side of the pool, the perfect setting for celebrations. 

The heart-shaped pool takes pride of place at the centre of the outside space. The hydro-massage jets mean it’s a hub of relaxation. After a morning spent floating and feeling your worries melt away, head to the tennis court. There’s also table tennis, a basketball hoop and billiards, so nobody is likely to feel bored. 

If you do feel the urge to explore beyond the gates, you can be in Zakynthos town in just fifteen minutes. You’ll find plenty of restaurants, bars and activity, and you can be back in time to enjoy a glass of wine as the sun sets. 


Heart of Zakynthos

When holidaying on one of the Greek islands, it's tempting to find a home as close as possible to the sea, but there's a lot to be said for settling on somewhere in the mountainous interior instead. When you experience the peace and tranquillity that surrounds this villa in the heart of Zakynthos, you'll see what we mean.

Surrounded by woodland and verdant hillsides, you'll find it easy to completely switch off and relax at this address, with long days in the sunshine sure to be packed with paddling in the pool, sunbathing on the loungers and whipping up dinner on the barbecue. The balconies are a prime spot for catching the sunset, too.

The home itself is generously sized with heaps of natural light coming in through the windows. We have to concede that it's not the most modern when it comes to interior design, with some parts looking a little dated. However, aesthetics aside, there are a few amenities that will help you feel at home, including the corner bathtub and fireplace in the living room.

Although you could enjoy a relaxing stay without leaving the address, there are some attractions to explore not too far away. The nearest village, for instance, is Vougiato only a kilometre away, while Laganas Beach is 9k away. The island's main town is a similar distance, too.







In a Perfect World

Located in the Lithakia village of Zakynthos, this Greek villa provides lovely views of the Ionian Ocean in one direction and mountains in the other. Wake up to sunshine and fantastic views here before enjoying a breakfast of Greek Yoghurt and honey topped with handfuls of nuts on the veranda or under the shade of the pergola. 

Lounge beside the pool and soak up the sunshine, enjoy a book of Greek myths from the comfort of the hanging wicker egg chair, or simply take some time to admire the amazing sea vistas on offer.

Spend days at the beach – just an eleven-minute drive away, or explore Zante town and port – reachable in twenty minutes by car. There are plenty of restaurants and bars to enjoy in Zante Town, or, of course, you could return home and enjoy a homemade moussaka alfresco with views of the ocean, or even take advantage of the barbecue and grill some delicious souvlaki under the shaded pergola. 

Zen in Zakynthos

Indulge in the beauty and culture of Zakynthos at this distinctive private retreat positioned directly on the shores of the beach. This newly constructed villa boasts three fully-appointed double bedrooms, two elegantly designed bathrooms, spacious living and dining areas, a modern, fully equipped kitchen, and a sun-kissed pool. With convenient private parking and ample external spaces, Bleu Villa ensures both comfort and convenience throughout your stay.
