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

Parking Available

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.

Secluded yet conveniently located, a five-minute drive from the nearest sandy beach at Nydri, this contemporary villa sunken into the forest is perfectly suited to groups of friends or families looking to get away from it all.

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.

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.


Centre of Attention

Ironing Board

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.
