The villa has three spacious double bedrooms and can accommodate up to eight guests, ideal for a family holiday or a friends' get-together.

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.

Umbrellas

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?


Cocooning

Cot / Crib

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

Settle down on the warm stone terrace at this charming villa, and you’ll feel as though you’ve been transported to another world. Draped in tranquillity, it’s the ultimate escape. With the small island of Marathonisi in your sightline and views across the mountains down to the Bay of Keri, this really is a picture-perfect location. And the good news? If the Greek sun gets a little much and you fancy a dip in the glistening private pool to cool down, you won’t lose the view. 

Head inside and the villa takes on some rustic appeal. Dressed in bold blue with exposed beams and stonework, it’s easy to imagine relaxing days and nights spent here. Before nightfall, however, we recommend you head back outside. Light the barbecue and enjoy an alfresco meal under the olive tree as the sky burns with an amber glow, before the sun disappears behind the mountains. In this peaceful location with your loved ones near, it’s completely enchanting.

With breathtaking views of the famous Marathonisi island (aptly named Turtle Island for its distinctive shape), refreshing interiors, and wealth of amenities, this villa offers an unforgettable experience! Embodying true Zakynthian style from the inside out, this gorgeous villa offers a taste of authentic Greece from the moment you arrive. Kick back and relax, taking in the beautiful scenery from plush sun loungers, or get your lengths in at the private pool before enjoying authentic Grecian delicacies from the luxury of the alfresco dining area, serenaded by the oceanic sounds of crashing waves below. Sunset offers the most magical views from the veranda, where a cool, refreshing cocktail or glass of wine perfectly set the scene.

When looking for adventure beyond your doorstep, don't forget to check out the beautiful Marathias Beach, which can be reached in a scenic six-minute stroll, and promises days of sun, sand, and sea, along with a lifetime of memories. Meanwhile, Zakynthos town centre can be reached in a thirty-minute drive, and offer guests to the island the chance to really immerse themselves in the rich history and culture of the locals, trying sumptuous delicacies in high-end restaurants, ample shopping opportunities, and the chance for excitement around every corner.

Zakynthian Turtle

Rain Shower

Welcome Hamper

Tucked away among the olive groves, this Zakynthos villa on the Sarakina hillside invites guests to soak up stunning views of the countryside and the glimmering turquoise sea in the distance. It resides in a peaceful spot surrounded by rolling hills and luscious trees, yet conveniently lies within walking distance from Laganas Beach (2 kilometres away) and a quick 8km drive away from the vibrancy of Zante Town – meaning you won't have to compromise on having a lively nightlife to enjoy when staying in this scenic location. 

With the magical blend of tranquillity, calming design and surrounding natural beauty, from here, it's easy to let go of the stresses of everyday life. Inside the villa, a soothing colour palette and natural materials present a relaxing living area in an open-plan design – meaning the group can come together in a sociable setting after a day of discovering Zakynthos. 

While the interior is undoubtedly welcoming, you'll likely find yourselves wanting to spend most of your time outside making the most of the garden and terrace. Those views, after all – are a force to be reckoned with. Perch around the pool on the sun loungers and get stuck into a holiday read with the sun on your skin. But, of course, that's if you can keep yourself from admiring the breathtaking countryside scenery.  

With local wines, oils and honey sweets produced here, it goes without saying that you should go out of your way to sample a few during your stay. Head into Laganas with its many shops, restaurants, clubs, as well as a vast, sandy beach? If you're keen to explore further afield, why not hire bikes and go about exploring the island on two wheels?

Located just a couple of kilometres from the vast sandy beach and crystal-clear waters of Laganas Beach, this two-storey villa is perfectly set up for large get-togethers with your extended family, or a large group of friends. 

On the ground floor, you'll find an impressive open-plan space with sky-high ceilings and a mezzanine level above. The ability to glide seamlessly across the polished concrete floor between the kitchen and seating area means that whoever's cooking for the group can flit between socialising and keeping an eye on whatever's in the oven.

You'll find a couple of en-suite bedrooms on this floor, each capable of accommodating up to five guests. Upstairs, there are a further two en-suite bedrooms with space for a further four guests in each, bringing the total guest count up to eighteen. 

Summer in the Greek islands is lived outdoors. At this particular villa, you're well catered for when it comes to comfy alfresco areas – including several day beds, poolside sun loungers, covered seating and a dining table with seating for fourteen guests.

Head out to explore and in addition to the nearby beaches, the vibrant town of Zante has plenty of fantastic restaurants and buzzing bars, plus a scenic seaside promenade, just 10 kilometres away.

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.

The Stone Throne

Delight in simple pleasure at this stone-built villa in the pastoral Zakynthos landscape. With both farmland and coastline on your doorstep, the beauty of island life beckons.

Start your days with a dip in the private pool, overlooked by flourishing olive trees and the sizzling Grecian sun. For lunch, pluck some veggies from the garden patch and whip up a traditional salad to enjoy al fresco. With the gentle breeze blowing in from the sea and the quiet murmurs of local wildlife, you'll settle into a stress-free mode in no time.

The characterful house blends rustic with contemporary, balancing wooden beams and exposed wood with soft-toned furnishings. The overall effect is one of calm and quiet, ideal for those seeking a blissful break from reality. If you want to liven things up, journey to Zakynthos town – just a fifteen-minute drive away – and peruse its eclectic street markets, or visit the landmark Agios Dionisios church.

Rustic Reverie

Just a short walk from the pretty village of Keri, famous for its stunning nearby sea caves and the turtles that nest on its beach, this new, stone-built villa is the perfect combination of modern luxury and green, natural setting. This light and airy villa is ideal for smaller get-togethers, and offers the perfect getaway for those with small children, as the outdoor play area will have them occupied from dawn till dusk. For older children, there's a beautifully located private pool and PlayStation 3 that'll have them out from under your feet and having fun, leaving you to enjoy the poolside sun loungers and the on-site bar. Of course, no Grecian getaway would be complete without a sumptuous barbecue out at the alfresco dining area, taking in the equally delicious views of the majestic mountains, oceanic horizon and neighbouring Turtle Island. 

When adventure calls, Zakynthos is well-equipped to have your imaginations running wild, so why not put on your most comfortable shoes and head on out to explore everything the island has to offer, whether that's taking advantage of the simply stunning nature walks, or sauntering into the nearby village of Keri to soak in the local culture. Keri Beach can also be reached in a five-minute walk and is fantastic for long, lazy beach days. We highly recommend visiting Zakynthos city centre, which can be reached in a twenty-seven-minute drive, to sample local delicacies and visit historic sites.

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

Wine Cooler

The third-largest Ionian island, Zakynthos is steeped in history, mystery, and striking coastal landscapes. Its beauty by the sea is unrivalled – from breezy shores for watersports, to calm bays where you can spot turtles, and the Port of Zakynthos with four ferry routes to various Mediterranean destinations. And just a sixteen-minute drive from here, natural beauty continues inland.

This villa feels far from the traditional Greek homes of the island. Wooden terraces and awnings jut out from tall windows and a garden patio, with red roof tiles making the whole scene feel somewhere between a Japanese Machiya and an Italian farmhouse. It has an almost cottage-like appearance, surrounded by the lushest lawns, brightest flowers, and wonderful scents of lemon and orange trees. Your swimming pool looks like a natural pond in this mountain setting, where it’s hard to imagine you’re just a twenty-minute walk from the beach.

Inside, the surprises continue with clever architecture creating a lofty living space and high ceilings. In other rooms, wooden beams emphasise striking sloped spaces, with wide doors opening up to patios and seating areas in that fantastic garden. And beneath the eaves, a bathroom with Scandi-style features plays host to a vintage, clawfoot tub – is there any better place to enjoy a glass of local wine?

Zest of Lemon

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.

Across the Azure

Juicer

Private Washing Machine

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

Home Cinema Setup

Games Room

Mini Bar

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.


Spirit of Zante

Games Console

Just a short walk from the pretty village of Keri Lake, famous for its stunning nearby sea caves and the turtles that nest on its beach, this new, stone-built villa is the perfect combination of modern luxury and a green, natural setting. Overlooking the sea and set in beautiful grounds with mature trees, lawns and terraces, it's the ideal space if you're looking to stay in this quiet part of the island.

Inside, it's spacious and cool, with natural tones, tiled floors and vaulted ceilings. The open-plan living area has comfy sofas, an extremely well kitted out kitchen and a dining space, with huge sliding doors that open it right up to the incredible pool terrace. Here you can swim in the crystal-clear infinity pool with uninterrupted views of the sea and the rocky islands offshore.

But while the pool is this home's star attraction, it's far from the only thing we love about it. There's a hot tub to relax in and a children's play area to keep smaller guests entertained, along with an outdoor yoga area (we're imagining sun salutations with superb sea views) and a fabulous outdoor kitchen where you can barbecue every evening if you feel like it.

There's plenty to do in the area too, and you can easily hire a boat to visit the caves and the nearby lighthouse for perfect snorkelling and unbelievable sunsets. 



The Eye of Dardanus

Single-Level Home

Extending right to the water's edge, it's practically impossible to stay any closer to the sea than at this stunning villa on the Ionian island of Zakynthos. Here, ocean sounds provide the tranquil soundtrack to your relaxing retreat.

The interior is a tranquil, zen-like space decorated in soothing earth tones, with plenty of natural materials that help you settle into your Greek getaway. The main open-plan living space includes a sleek contemporary kitchen, a triangle frame wooden dining table, and a stylish seating area with jaw-dropping sea views and direct access to the perfectly manicured gardens. Two bedrooms also enjoy outdoor access, while a third has an en-suite shower room.

Step through the doors and discover an inviting pool is ringed by sun loungers and a sun-dappled dining area that sits beneath the pergola. A hammock strung up between two palm trees is an idyllic spot to spend an afternoon gently rocking in the sea breeze while the waves lap gently at the shore, just yards away.

You're well catered for when it comes to mini markets, shops and restaurants right on your doorstep in Argassi. Still, if you fancy exploring further afield, then the island's main town is a ten-minute drive, while Porto Limnionas and Paralia Navagio are around thirty kilometres away.

Waterworld

Board Games

With its oatmeal tones, lightweight linens, a perfectly positioned hot tub and a swimming pool surrounded by olive trees, this rustic villa is ideal for a family or group of friends looking to kick back and seriously relax. 

Inside the home, exposed stone walls and timber beams create a cool yet cosy atmosphere. Steal a moment for yourself with a cup of coffee on the soft sofa before heading into the garden to pick produce from the vegetable patch in preparation for lunch. 

As the catch of the day grills on the barbecue, make yourself comfortable in the hanging wicker chair and sway with the gentle Ionian breeze. And when it’s time to feast, come together with your loved ones on the shaded terrace. 

Spend the late afternoon lounging on the beach just 300 metres from your door or take the twenty-minute drive to Zakynthos Town for its Byzantine Museum and traditional tavernas tucked down quaint cobbled streets.

Good Lookin'

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.

Bleu Beach Villa

Sun Umbrellas

Sun worshippers will feel right at home at this gorgeous villa on the outskirts of Ampelokipoi. Not only is it just a ten-minute drive from Laganas beach, but it benefits from a sprawling garden with more than enough room for nine. The pool is ideal for cooling off on non-beach days, and the pergola is the perfect spot for an evening mezze feast. The only downside is that this home is part of a development, and the low garden walls may mean more neighbourly interaction than you bargained for. But with Mykonos Town within easy reach, you can always opt for an evening out if you need a change of scenery. 

Pomegranate Syrup

Located at the top of a hill, this newly built stone villa is on well-kept grounds where you can spend relaxing moments all to yourself. Take a walk in the scenic olive groves and swim in the infinity pool whilst looking out to a magnificent view of the Ionian Sea and the isle of Marathonisi. Exclusive style and traditional Zakynthian architecture may make it challenging for you to leave your comfortable and idyllic surroundings to discover all the island of Zakynthos has to offer. 

Drive five minutes to Keri Beach, also known as Keri Lake, and rent a pedalo to drift along the blue waters before returning to the coast to rest on the loungers or swim in the turquoise sea. Keri Lighthouse is a bit further away, situated on the edge of a rocky cliff around 300 metres above sea level. The Myzithres, two white towering rocks coming from the sea named after the cheese Myzithra owing to their form resembling this cheese, can be seen here. Finish the evening with a glass of red wine at a neighbouring restaurant viewing the sea at sunset.


Flower of Levante

If you’re in need of some serious R & R, this Zakynthos home has got you covered. There aren’t any flashy amenities here, but the unfussy interior makes this a great base to come home to after a day of sunbathing on Laganas Beach. If alfresco dining’s your thing, the pergola will be right up your street, and with three of the four bedrooms boasting private balcony access, there are plenty of spots to gaze out at the surrounding greenery. Just bear in mind that this home is part of a development, so you may hear some noise from the neighbours during your stay.

Ouzo Sunset

Nintendo Wii

This pretty stone villa overlooks the ocean on the idyllic island of Zakynthos. It’s a leisurely twenty-minute stroll to the beach at Kaminia or an easy four-minute drive. If you fancy a night on the town, Zakynthos Town buzzes to life after sunset and is just a ten-minute drive away.

Back at the villa you’ve got plenty to keep you occupied. Like the glittering swimming pool on the huge terrace looking out over the Aegean. Our favourite spot out here has to be the suspended day bed, swathed with curtains. You’ve also got a covered veranda for alfresco dining and a second terrace upstairs with a chi chi chaise longue if you want to live out your romance novel fantasies.

The interior feels grand yet rustic with exposed stone walls at every turn and an old stone fireplace in the living room. Tufted leather armchairs, mini chandeliers and hand-carved wardrobes add the decadence. The master suite is fairytale-esque with stone archways framing glowing candelabra and satin curtains cascading from the four-poster bed. We love the vintage design touches that complement wooden ceilings throughout – a rotary phone here, a steam-punk sink there. 

Island Romance

With easy access to Zakynthos city and the beautiful beaches lining the coast (just a short drive away), this home is a great option for those seeking a simple island escape. It’s also just a quick stroll from the local restaurants and shops of Ampelokipoi, plus the private parking will come in handy for those looking to adventure further afield – your host can help arrange car rentals. Inside, the rooms are basic but we think families will find the large garden and swimming pool bring ease and joy to daily living. 

Days of Gold

Tucked amongst the olive groves and just a 650m walk from Marathias Beach (you’ll have to climb uphill on your return), this villa offers impressive views over the Zakynthos coastline. From here, you can walk to your local taverna, though we’d suggest hopping in the car to explore the Keri Caves and Cameo Island. Inside this natural stone villa, you’ll find a simple yet elegant space that welcomes you in from the midday heat. Outside, you’ll find a panoramic-viewed terrace, an infinity pool, an alfresco dining area and a lounge for sipping sundowners. 

Zakynthos Stone

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. 

Moonrise Kingdom

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

Consider waking up to the warm sun on your face, the scent of fresh flora, and views of undulating luscious greenery. This villa is paradise and more. Nestled in the herbaceous Agios Sostis landscape, this home overlooking Lagana Bay is an idyllic retreat for a family or group of friends seeking a quintessential Zakynthos experience.

Inside, a modestly traditional and thoughtfully modern interior awaits. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow the Ionian Ocean light to flood into the traditional-beamed space and neutral tones reflect the calm island disposition. It’s easy to pass the time lost in your new summer read on the plush sofas or lounging in your poolside hammock, breathing in the salt-perfumed breeze. 

We’re sure you will be wanting to spend most of your time soaking in the sun on your sand-blasted terrace, but if you can pull yourself away, head to Agios Sostis Harbour. Here, you can cross the sea-grazing path to reach the crystalline waters of Cameo Island – it's a picture of paradise.

Come sunset, you’ll want to be nestled around the outdoor dining table, enjoying a grilled barbecue dinner of octopus and a crisp glass of local Verdea wine.

This stunning home in Kalamaki is an excellent base for luxurious escapes in Zakynthos. The villa is impossibly cool, with a minimalist style and an open-plan living space that lends itself to socialising. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors showcase the 180-degree view of the bay, which can also be admired from each of the four en-suite bedrooms. The terrace is a splendid spot for alfresco dining, and even for an early-morning yoga session before a dip in the private pool. This villa is bound to impress. 

The Oracle Keeper

Underfloor Heating

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.

Sun-Hued Harmony

Bicycles

Tennis Court

Nestled in a sprawling estate, filled with vineyards, olive groves, fruit trees, and flowers, you'll find this dreamy villa. With a tranquil setting, plenty of space for all your guests, and a range of amenities to keep everyone occupied, it's the perfect place to call home during your trip to Zakynthos. 

The rustic architecture echoes days gone by, and the interior design combines traditional luxury with modern comforts. You'll love the checkered floor tiles and chandeliers, which add a sense of grandeur to the space, along with the huge patio doors that allow you to embrace indoor-outdoor living. You can play a game of tennis on the private court, or challenge your guests to a round of table-tennis in the garden. If you prefer to take it easy, grab a book and lounge beside the pool, before plunging in for a refreshing dip. And, as evening falls, gather your group at the alfresco dining table for a feast, with the stunning mountain landscapes as your backdrop. 

The coast is under 7km away by car, and you could spend an eternity exploring the hidden coves and pretty coastal scenes. Dafni Beach, an 18km drive away, is a particular gem – it's a quiet spot with soft sands where you might even see some turtles. And, with Zakynthos Town only 8km away, culture fans will be happy – visit museums, tour Orthodox churches, and dine on local delicacies at the range of excellent restaurants.
