About this property

KATHISMA BAY VILLAS | VILLA HELIOS | LUXURY VILLA PRIVATE POOL | STUNNING VIEWS

Not many Villas in Lefkada can boast such breath-taking Ionian sea views combined with a high-quality finish and level of service.

KATHISMA BAY VILLAS, a complex of two luxury contemporary designed villas, VILLA OCEANOS and VILLA HELIOS, is situated on the beautiful West Coast of Lefkada, in an elevated secluded hillside location directly overlooking Kathisma Beach. The property is with OUTSTANDING panoramic sea views and spectacular sunsets overlooking the Ionian Sea.

Both villas have their own 10m x 5m private infinity pool, large outdoor space and a sizeable 135m2 footprint over two levels, with spectacular sea views from every room. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and a large open plan living room and kitchen / dining area opening directly on to a large outdoor shaded pergola, it creates an ideal entertaining and dining setting with the perfect indoor / outdoor flow.

In addition the pool area of VILLA HELIOS is at the same level as the outdoor patio area, while for Villa Helios the swimming pool is at a lower level to the house and outdoor patio and is fully gated making it a great option for families with young children.

Wonderful Stay at Kathisma bay
The villa is beautiful. Very well designed and private even though there is a second property right next door. Everything you could need has been provided. The views are to die for… just wow! Took us 3 years to finally get here due to Covid but well worth the wait. Loads to see, explore, drink and dine on Lefkada. Beautiful.
Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2022

Kathisma Bay Villas - WOW!!!
Without doubt one of our favourite villas we have ever stayed in. Photos do not the location justice, Kathisma Bay is simply stunning and the villas are just beautiful - very modern, clean and family friendly. Pure luxury - honestly. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the owner, staff and general manager. The staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was warm and relaxing, to give you an example, our son fell very sick during our stay and the manager ensured that we had prompt medical attention and access to medication, he drove us to a private doctor, interpreted for us and ensured we received the best service possible. I can't thank him enough. The town itself is gorgeous, the people are lovely and very accommodating. Food is great. I give it 10/10! We will be back.

Fantastic Villas in an awesome location.
What an amazing villa! We stayed with our three children 7,4 & 2. The Villa is top notch, with everything we could possibly need. It's location is tranquil with amazing sunsets looking straight over the ocean. Managed perfectly by Pavlina & Minas, we couldn't have wanted for more and they were so perfectly friendly. The Island is great too with a wide variety of amenities, restaurants and everything we needed including well stocked modern supermarkets in the main town. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kathisma villas to anyone and hope to return soon.

Stunning views, extremely tranquil and beautiful.
We had a wonderful escape at the villa for a week in August. Great for a family vacation and really don't need to leave the villa but lots to do if you wish to venture our. Fantastic pool and surroundings, and great service from the villa manager and the owners. They even called us to ensure we were okay during a power cut. I would highly recommend for a real escape and getaway to unwind and relax and better if you take both villas and share with family or friends which we plan to do next time.

Lefkada luxury with views to die for
We (2 couples each with a 1 year old child) arrived at Villa Oceanos at around 6pm in the evening. Anyone who travels with children will know that no matter how short/relatively easy the journey there are always stresses and by the time we arrived at Villa Oceanus we were pretty frazzled. Minas (the manager) immediately put us at ease with his charm and good sense of humour...and as we looked around the villa and out at that stunning ocean view, we knew we'd booked the perfect holiday villa for our first holiday with a little one. The luxury surroundings - infinity pool and fantastic big terrace with gorgeous furniture for lounging and fabulous views - made us feel like we were still getting a grown up holiday that we could enjoy whilst the child-friendly features (stair gates, comfortable travel cots with baby friendly linen, black out blinds etc) enabled us to relax in the knowledge that the babies would be safe and sleep well and we would get some proper down time! The website and photos give a very accurate sense of what the villa is like but nothing can do it the justice of being there in person! Aside from the luxury surroundings and views, the villa is clean and very well maintained with nice touches such as luxury bathroom products. Matt and Pavlina (the villa owners) were very helpful in answering various questions we had about taxis and sleeping arrangements for the babies etc ahead of our arriving and, once we got to the villa, Minas was very helpful with local area recommendations - beaches, restaurants etc and on the first night recommended a great take away place at Kathisma Beach, who were able to deliver great greek food at a moment's notice. Agios Nikitas is a gorgeous little village for evening food and drinks and a wander....definitely recommended. The only thing we had hoped for that wasn't possible was to be able to walk down to Kathisma Beach - worth bearing in mind that cars are definitely needed in order to get around. Overall, I can't recommend the Kathisma Bay Villas enough. Perfect for a family holiday but also a get a way with friends. It caters for everyone and the set up is fantastic. Get booking!

About the host

Hosted by Matt White

Host profile image
I am a proud Kiwi married to my beautiful Greek wife who with we have two young boys. My wife whose family and relatives are local to the Island, spent most of her summer holidays living on the Island. Recently after a 20-year stint in London, UK, we have decided to move back to my home country of NZ for the boys, although maintaining strong oversight of the business with regular visits Greece and our brilliant full time local manager!

My wife first introduced me to Lefkada in 2003 and it was on this trip that I was hooked by the stunning undeveloped coast line and amazing west coast beaches with incredible azure and turquoise blue waters, similar to a tropical paradise!! Having spent most of my childhood summers by the sea in New Zealand and Australia, and having travelled extensively around the world, I was taken by the island and knew I just had to get a slice of paradise to build our very own dream Mediterranean summer holiday home.

After an extensive search we luckily came across this beautiful Kathisma Beach plot and was immediately taken by the views. We acquired the land in 2007 and after a long and painstaking labour of love the past few years we finally completed the build in 2016!

We welcome you as our guests and sincerely hope that you have a relaxing and enjoyable stay and fully appreciate the sheer beauty of the location and the fruits of our labour of love!

Why they chose this property

WHAT MAKES OUR VILLAS UNIQUE?

Simply the stunning Ionian Sea views and sunsets that most of our clients would quite simply rate as one of the best in the world! The view constantly changes day by day, night by night, hour by hour, and is as beautiful on a hot summers day, or star filled night, as it is in the middle of a winter storm. It is a view that you would never tire off!

During the busy summer months the elevated secluded position of the villas overlooking Kathisma Beach enables you to enjoy the views and feel like you are part of the action at the beach, from the comfort and privacy of your own pool lounger!

Location of the villas is also perfect for exploring the beautiful west coast beaches, and is very close to Agios Nikitas (3mins) which offers fantastic taverna's, cafes and bars, as well as plenty of shops for your essential supplies.

What makes this property unique

Kathisma Beach is a large stunning white pebble sand beach on the beautiful West Coast of Lefkada Island, with spectacular azure and turquoise waters and incredible sunsets. It is one of the most well-known and popular beach resorts in Lefkada Island, and during the peak summer months the beach is lively and partly organised with sun loungers and umbrellas serviced by a number of taverna’s and beach cafés/bars.

For adrenalin junkies there are also professional paragliding operators offering spectacular flights over the bay of Kathisma. In the quiet season the beach offers serene wild tranquillity at its best.

As Lefkada is a large island, we highly recommend hiring a car.

Lefkada is the fourth largest Ionian island and is popular but still relatively untouched, offering stunning coastline and beaches with a mountainous pine clad interior, charming character villages, vineyards and great tavernas, café’s and bars. The east coast is more developed and populated with pretty coastline overlooking the island gulf while the west coast is less developed and has an untouched dramatic coastline with stunning vistas.

The West Coast of Lefkada is famous for its numerous stunning white pebble sand beaches many of which, are recognised as the best in Greece, including Porto Kastiki, Egremni, Kathisma beach, Milos, Pefkulia and several others which are situated nearby.

THINGS TO DO NEARBY:
For the active-types the island is also a sailing and water sports mecca, with world-class sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing. Other popular activities include scuba diving, paragliding, hiking and mountain bike tours. Hiring a small powerboat or yacht or taking a charter boat or an organised boat cruise to explore the beautiful east coast and archipelago of many beautiful islands, such as Skorpios (Onassis former island), Meganisi, Kefalonia, and Ithaki.
