With gorgeous views across rolling mountains, stretching out to the sea, this villa on Ithaka island could be the relaxing retreat you’ve been seeking. Tranquillity finds new meaning here – the traditional stone brick abode is bursting with traditional character that has a calming authenticity to it. Although the views are extraordinary, you’ll feel right at home with the charming, cosy interior and familiar outdoor tables. Traditional touches are interspersed with contemporary appliances, fit for a modern family or group of friends. But it’s those that appreciate the simpler things in life that’ll really love this place. Every day acts become memories here – letting the sunlight warm your face in the morning, savouring your coffee on the patio, preparing lunchtime salads with loved ones around the table, and playing cards while sharing a bottle of wine. The view, and the homely setting, add a sprinkle of magic to everything you do. From the moment you drop your bags and step onto the patio, you’ll be hooked. Of course, you have plenty of luxuries too – spend blissful days lounging by the glittering pool, reading your book, and sipping on local wine. When it comes to exploring, Ithaka is a... rugged, mountainous island that’s inspired myths and legends for centuries. Take hikes through the gorgeous landscape, or spend days lounging on the beach – it’s just a ten-minute drive away. When you can drag yourself away from the view and delicious home-cooked barbecues, you’ll love visiting local restaurants in nearby Stavros.

About Ithaca
The pine-clad island of Ithaca is the antidote to bustling city life. Just off the coast of Kefalonia, you’ll find pretty villages and secluded white stone beaches – we promise the turquoise waters make up for the lack of sand. Though this secluded spot is only reachable by ferry, it’s the best way to explore – enjoy a pit stop at seafront tavernas for local delicacies or dock at the...
