About the villa
High standards of comfort are more than matched by sublime views from the swimming pool terrace, and easy access to the beach and boat mooring. This popular family villa has it all. Its hillsides scented with herbs and cypress trees and blessed with blissful vistas of this gorgeous corner of the Ionian, the Geni Peninsula tempts its guests with peace and privacy, nowhere more so than in the landscaped gardens of this lovely villa. A pool is the focal point, set with shimmering mosaic tiles in shades of blue and green, and surrounded by a sun terrace overlooking the sea. This view, of Skorpios and scattered tiny islets, can be enjoyed from almost every room in the elegantly furnished house.
The comfortable sitting /dining room, with its big leather sofas, opens on to a broad furnished balcony, and a paved barbecue area has a wood-burner oven. A cook service supplied by the maid is also available on request. In addition to the four bedrooms, Kalithea has a self-contained studio on the lower floor, adding useful flexibility to accommodation arrangements. A track from the villa leads to the beach, about a ten minute walk, and restaurants are a five minute drive from the villa.

Lefkada
Average weather
In the Ionian family of islands, Lefkada is the black sheep. For a start, it is connected to the mainland by a causeway and bridge, and so does not have to rely on ferries. Unlike the rest of the archipelago, it was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, and pronounced Turkish influences give it more in common with the mainland. Lefkada holidays take you to something of an under-appreciated—and slightly oddball—gem, with intricate lagoons and marshes, spectacular cliffs, bays, and headlands, and some of the best beaches in Greece. In addition to Lefkada Town and Nidri, there are smaller resorts on the east coast at Perigiali, Nikiana and Lygia; and regular ferries ply between Lefkada and the nearby islands of Meganissi, Ithaca, and Kefalonia.
