Postcard from Lindos

Postcard from Lindos: Aegean South

We've fallen hard for this character-filled villa dating back to 1940, set in the historic village of Lindos. And with knockout views of the Acropolis of Lindos from a rooftop terrace and a bubbling private Jacuzzi to boot, it's easy to see why.

Step inside, and the boho vibes from the outside veranda (that traditional pebble courtyard is everything) keep on flowing. A charming sitting room with a wood-burning fire is perfect for cooler evenings. And you'll love the pristine bedrooms with dual-aspect windows to show off those next-level views and a palette of blue hues, reminding us the sea is never far away.

When it's time to dip your toes into the local culture, you won't have far to go. Set next to the ancient amphitheatre of St. Stefanos, which hosts regular live music events, and with bustling tavernas around every sugar-cubed corner, it's quite a setting. And just a five-minute flip-flop away, you'll find the postcard-perfect St. Pauls Bay – with aquamarine waters beckoning you to dive right in.
