Postcard from Paxos Vlachopoulatika, Paxi

Property Description

We were charmed from the minute we clapped eyes on the dazzling sea vistas and countless sun-kissed terraces of this newly renovated villa. Perched high in the hillsides of Paxos and just a five-minute drive from the laid-back shores and authentic tavernas of Gaios, it's a postcard-perfect setting.

Sunny mornings call for bobbing about that glorious infinity pool surrounded by fragrant mature gardens. Then get together beneath the shade of the pergola for a lazy tapas lunch and drink up the shimmering sea views (and perhaps a glass of crisp retsina). If you fancy a post-lunch slumber with a good book (who wouldn't?), there are so many quiet seating nooks we've frankly lost count. Or take things inside to the light-filled living room united by breeze-fresh interiors and crash out on the modular sofa – those sea views will still be right there with you. While over in the three restful bedrooms bringing all the chic beach-house style, each room is as serene and immaculate as the next and all offer en-suite bathrooms for an added sense of privacy.

Ready to dip your toes into island life? Then pack up your beach bags for a morning along the shores of Gaios, just a five-minute drive away. Or set sail on an adventure with a charter speedboat (no license required) to search out the island's startlingly turquoise bays – just like you've been dreaming of.

Home truths:
*There is private parking outside the home
*This home has its own private entrance
*While not all of the en-suite bathrooms are photographed, we expect the style and quality to be consistent with the rest of the home
*A cot and high chair can be provided for little ones, just request with your host in advance, and you'll need to bring your own linen
*Pool towels are provided, so you can pack a little lighter
*The wi-fi at this home is able to support basic functionality such as web browsing and checking emails, but due to the island's location, it can be temperamental at times
*There’s a taverna within a fifteen-minute walk of this home for an easy bite to eat and plenty more in Gaios, a five-minute drive away
