A Picture of Peace

A Picture of Peace: Zakynthos

Situated next to the White Sandstone Mountains and the sparkling Ionian Sea, this villa is an idyllic location when you’re aiming for relaxation and rejuvenation. Surrounded by manicured local fauna and gardens of wildflowers, this peaceful spot has everything you need for a blissful coastal break.

With Greek island temperatures, it’s not surprising this home promotes outdoor living. Spend leisurely mornings in your soft sheets before sitting out on the balcony with a cup of freshly-brewed coffee. Fringed by natural stone walls and lush olive trees, a sun-drenched patio takes centre stage as the heart of this home. Spend your days here, enjoying a refreshing dip in the crystalline pool or stretching out on one of the lounge chairs, catching some rays. We especially love gathering here for grilled barbecue dinners, soundtracked by the playlist you curated for a setting like this.

If you want to get out and explore, beeline for Gerakos Beach to admire the island’s white sands and shallow blue waters, a short walk away or head to the heartbeat of the island, Zakynthos Port, where you’ll be spoilt with seafood tavernas, independent boutique-lined streets and the buzzy Dionysios Solomos Square.
