About the villa

Walk to the beach | Fabulous sea views | Beautiful infinity pool

Raised above the rocks on a hillside cloaked in trees and shrubs, Kalypso is perfectly placed for an interlude of sun, sea and sailing. As laid-back and tranquil as the island itself, the house looks out to idyllic views along the rugged shoreline, across the sea to the mountains of the mainland, and down to a sheltered shingle beach just a hundred metres below. Excellent vantage points come in the form of loungers around the swimming pool, a shaded dining terrace, and dual-aspect balconies adjoining the first floor master suite; and a gorgeous outdoor kitchen complete with prep area, barbecue, hob and fridge.

Within the unpretentious villa, rooms are uncluttered and simply styled, while mod cons include air conditioning, satellite TV and internet access. Two twin bedrooms share the ground floor with an open-plan living room, incorporating the kitchen and dining areas and opening on to the terrace. Cook service could be added for an extra level of leisure, and shops and restaurants in gorgeous Gaios are just 3km away, with pavement tables at the water’s edge.
