EXPERIENCE A LUXURY PRIVATE VILLA ON LEFKADA
Tucked away in the forest above Nidri harbour we have created a wonderful luxury, private retreat with extraordinary panoramic views. Magnificent, star gazing is possible given the near total absence of light pollution. Our heated pool makes swimming during every week of the season comfortable with a pool temperature of 25C whilst our investment in a 22-panel solar array means we produce all our own electricity making your heated-pool, air-conditioned stay both luxurious and carbon-neutral.
Our luxury starts with a warm welcome and support from our villa managers Jon and Gill (onsite in a cottage in the grounds below the main villa) but then extends to:
A generous hamper on arrival to ensure you’re free to relax immediately with food and drinks to see you through dinner & breakfast.
Comfortable beds and luxury linens.
Luxurious bathrooms and showers supported by a whole-house pump & softened water
High class furnishings that blend the modern with selected antiques and personally curated artwork from around the world create a unique feel to each room – far away from identikit hotels or IKEA furnished villas.
Books and games, DVDs, Bluetooth/Airplay speakers, a full TV service including international channels, WiFi access throughout the house and on the pool terrace.
Amenities to cook as little or as much as you want in a fully equipped kitchen, or on a large BBQ and using a sizeable herb garden.
