Greek Gem!
What an absolute gem with breathtaking views over mountains and sea. We were here on honeymoon and did not regret it one bit. Once you get the hang of driving up, you’ll love it.
The kitchen is well equipped, but if you plan to use it bring some olive oil or butter.
Our host Konstantinos was super friendly and available by WhatsApp. He tended to our every need. -
Ideal choice!
This year we wanted our vacation to be relaxed without a lot of back and forth! Thus, Villa Biotite turned out to be the ideal choice!
Away from the noise of the city, in the calm and coolness of the mountainous Lefkada! The villa has everything one could need. You can enjoy swimming in the pool, cook and of course relax and enjoy the wonderful green landscape and the sea view! -
