VILLA ITHACA, ITHAKA

ABOUT PROPERTY

From the moment you view the classically proportioned Villa you are immediately made aware of the impending luxury that is to follow. Graced with calming fountains and cooling lawns the villa becomes a magical retreat. Standing at the beautifully crafted iron and glass front door, you see through the house to neighboring Atoko Island floating in the clear Ionian waters. In addition to the main residence is an equally glamorous guesthouse. The same level of exceptional quality and style continues. Sumptuous marble baths, rich walnut floors, hand carved doors, crystal light fixtures and rooms filled with stunning antiques. Every square foot and each level of this Villa offers excellence in beauty, comfort and style.

The Property is situated at the entrance of Vathi Bay. This Bay is the main harbor and town of Ithaca. The property is a one-of-a-kind Peninsula with views encompassing the Southern part of the island. In the distance the mountain of Kathara with its famous monastery is in clear sight. Turning to the North and North-East, you will see the island of Lefkada. Beyond, lay the smaller Ionian Islands nestled lazily at the base of the Southern Epirus Mountains. The property’s land is covered with rich vegetation composed of the wild species encountered in the Ionian region. As you continue to experience this unique Peninsula, you will encounter fields of lavender, olive groves, and a quaint private vineyard.

This fully air-conditioned Villa has all the amenities that you would expect from a luxury vacation destination. The Professional Staff will cater to your every need. Beyond the lush gardens and the tranquil Ionian Sea that take you back in time, you will have up-to-the minute technology at your fingertips. WIFI and iPod receptacles throughout and of course the standard telephone and facsimile. The spacious library, contemporary media room, and state-of-the-art “Chefs Kitchen” complete the perfect amenities package.

LOCATION

Worldwide famous as the home of Odysseus, Ithaca symbolises the return to the haven,the discovery and the fulfillment. Despite its proximity to Kefalonia (2km northeast) it is much more peaceful, quiet and undiscovered from it, thus being an ideal place for alternative activities and a holiday living up to the standards of the most demanding ones amongst us.

With its 27-kilometre long and 6.5-kilometre large mountainous surface, it boasts plenty of hiking as well as mountain bike trails in a sequence of blue and green alongside the coast and through olive, cypress, pine, oak, arbutus and carob trees up on the hills.
