Where Land Meets Sea

Where Land Meets Sea: Samos

For true privacy and seclusion, look no further than this tucked-away villa on the island of Samos. While away days by the aqua-blue pool, or visit one of the nearby coves – accessible only by boat or foot, so you can expect zero traffic noise.

The villa itself is homely and bright, fitted will all-important home comforts, including scenic spots to dine and inviting seating where you can happily curl up with a book. Peer through flourishing olive trees from the large windows, and see how long you can resist the sea beckoning.

Potami beach is a three-minute drive (or twenty-minute walk) away. Lay on the sandy shores and listen to the silky water lapping as the day ambles on. Nearby, the small town of Karlovasi is a useful spot for grocery top-ups, and it's also home to a number of traditional tavernas. Fishing is popular in this community, so we suggest you sample to fresh seafood.
