Zorba The Greek

Zorba The Greek: Peloponnese

Spread across two separate villas, this beautiful complex is perfectly set up for friendly get-togethers and family gatherings spent basking in the Mediterranean sun. With the slopes of mount Taygetos behind you and the crystal clear waters of Messinian Bay in front, there are picturesque vistas whichever way you turn.

Swim a few leisurely lengths in the sea-facing pool, before picking out a lounger to dry off on. When lunchtime beckons, gather for group meals in the alfresco dining area or in the bright open living space.

Natural light floods in throughout the day, thanks to the floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors. Inside, we particularly love how the traditional features combine with modern furnishings to create a comfortable home – from the timber-framed ceiling, stone walls and original fireplace to the velvet armchairs, stylish lighting and light grey colour palette.

When you're not hanging out at home, we recommend taking a ten-minute drive to Stoupa beach for a fun-filled afternoon. Stretch out on the soft sands or paddle in the shallows, before venturing to the historic town of Kardamili for a bite to eat and a look around the historic architecture, just fifteen minutes away by car.
