Elegant and luxurious, yet with a friendly, personal touch, a stay at Canary Villa is everything you could want it to be. Located on the northern side of Ithaca, in the area of Pilikata, you get a complete sense of privacy and calm. This stunning villa offers breath-taking sea views, stylish furnishings and character features throughout, all just a ten-minute drive from the white sands and turquoise water of Afales beach.

When you step inside the villa, the walls are made up of old firebricks, with wooden floors and solid wood fixtures, creating a homely, warm atmosphere. Blended in are modern appliances and contemporary furnishings that give moments of luxury and decadence, to feel like you are really treating yourself. On the ground floor there is a lounge, dining room and kitchen, all open-plan, with patio doors opening onto a sunny balcony. The space is fairly compact, but with the addition of the balcony there is room for everyone to come together whether cooking, reading, dining or sipping a cocktail on the balcony, all the guests can share this space, spending quality time as a group. Also, on this floor is a beautiful bedroom and bathroom. An internal staircase leads up to a balcony, that overlooks the living and dining area downstairs, creating a social feel between the two floors. The second bedroom and bathroom can be found at the top of the stairs, offering a romantic atmosphere perfect for couples.

Outdoor living is what it is about at Canary Villa, with a wrap-around terrace, showing off the best of the views, it is easy to spend all day outdoors. The private swimming pool is perfect for cooling off on hot summer days, after which you can sit back on the al-fresco dining table, settling in for an evening of barbecues and entertaining.

Known as the homeland of Odysseus, Ithaka island is every bit as rugged, romantic and beautiful as it is described in the legend, leaving plenty for you to explore. Whether it is days on hidden beaches, private boat trips or a hike around the local area, Canary Villa is the perfect place to return to, your own oasis on the island!
