Eolia - Trois Chambres Villa, Couchages 6

With its modern good looks, its hypnotic sea-and-island views, its pool and its garden gate access to a sandy beach, Eolia has much to commend it. It also offers a liberating sense of freedom, thanks to its location: you can stroll into Nikiana for a morning coffee and a pastry, toast your fortune with an aperitif at a local seafront bar, and dine out at the taverna on the beach below the house.

Inside: accommodation at Eolia is laid out over two floors.

The main entrance leads into a bright, welcoming open-plan communal space. At the front is a living area with fabulous sea views, a sofa flanking a fireplace, and a wall of sliding glass doors opening out onto the terraces. Behind this is a dining table, which is served by a well-equipped kitchen with honeyed wooden cabinetry. White walls, sandy tiled floors and a pleasing simplicity typify this most summery of spaces.

Near the kitchen two doors open into the remaining accommodation on the ground floor: a contemporary shower room; and the first bedroom, a double with pool and sea views and terrace access via more sliding glass doors.

Wooden stairs lead up from next to the main entrance to the first floor, which is home to two double bedrooms, both of which come with sea views, en-suite shower rooms (one has a sea-view shower) and access via sliding glass doors to a wonderfully panoramic shared terrace.

Outside: Eolia's open-plan communal space and the ground floor bedroom both open out onto an L-shaped terrace. To one side, partially flanked by a decked area, is the infinity pool, which offers swimmers gorgeous views out to sea. To the other side, meanwhile, is a large shaded pergola, home to an al fresco dining area served by an outdoor kitchen with sink, worktop, wine fridge and barbecue. Beyond the dining area, meanwhile, is a sun-kissed section of terrace delimited by glass balustrades.

Steps lead down from the decked area by the pool, past a lawn and on to a panoramically positioned terrace suspended above the beach below. Furnished with a sofa, a pair of easy chairs and a firepit, this is a great spot at all times of day and night.

Back up on the sun-kissed terrace by the al fresco dining area, a second flight of steps lead down all the way to the sandy beach below, from where, should you wish, you can immerse yourself in the translucent waters of the Ionian Sea.

Finally, the two bedrooms on the first floor open out onto a well-furnished shared terrace from where the views out to sea and across to the Greek mainland are arguably at their best.

Eolia features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning views while in the pool. There is a drop off the infinity side so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools.

You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.65m

Due to the nature of the property including terraces low walls and several drops around the grounds, children must be supervised at all times.

Because of natural changes to the coastline from season to season, the sandy beach in front of this property may not look as it does in the photos.

Please note that the beach below Eolia is popular during the day, especially in July and August, but is usually quiet early in the morning and in the late afternoon and evening.

The lovely taverna on the beach near Eolia occasionally holds events such as weddings and baptisms, which may be heard from the villa.

Although this property is located within walking distance of some shops and restaurants, we strongly recommend that you hire a car.
