Blessed with a privileged position overlooking Vasiliki beach, this beautiful hillside villa is perfectly placed for a blissful Greek retreat on the island of Lefkada. The villa's interior is elegantly simple, with a well-equipped kitchen leading directly to an outdoor dining area with a retractable awning so you can seek solace from the heat of the midday sun at lunchtime before dining under the stars in the evening. Upstairs, the two bedrooms benefit from jaw-dropping panoramas, private outdoor spaces and their own en-suite bathrooms. The curved design of the main bedroom is a particular highlight and offers 270-degree views over the surrounding landscape. Lesser known than Corfu to the north and Kefalonia to the south, Lefkada is where you want to head for some of the best beaches this side of the Indian Ocean. With secluded coves, golden sands and crystal-clear waters, you've got all the ingredients for a picture-perfect escape. The nearby western coast will dazzle you with its beautiful beaches, such as Porto Katsiki​, fifteen kilometres away. Closer to home, the village of Vasiliki is something of a watersports and windsurfing mecca with a pebble and shingle beach that makes for stunning clear seas. There are plenty of traditional tavernas and lively bars, particularly around the harbour, where you can practically eat with your toes in the water.
