Location
About the surrounding area of Villa VougiatoAlthough Villa Vougiato is in a wonderful countryside setting in the middle of the island, you are still only 6km from a beach, 6km from Zante Town, 5.5km from Bochali and 6.5km from Lagunas.
The Monastery of Panagia Eleftherotria is close to the villa. The panoramic view of the village of Lagopodo and the surrounding valleys and mountains is wonderful. The monastery was founded in 1962 and is led by 17 nuns.
It is easy to visit the north of the island from the villa. Alykes is a quiet resort. It has a golden sandy beach with some watersports to try, beach bars, interesting souvenir shops, an agricultural museum and some good restaurants. You can take boat trips to the Blue Caves and Smugglers Cove and you can also hire a horse and carriage to go to Alykanas which is fun. Alykanas is a small, typical Greek village surrounded by dreamy bright blue seas and lush olive groves and vineyards. It is very laid back.
To the south of the villa, you will come to the busy resorts of Kalamaki and Laganas, Laganas being the more lively. There are many restaurants, bars, cafes and shops as well as a 5km stretch of fine silvery sand. The beaches are protected as turtles nest there so there are no watersports. There is a lot of entertainment for families with 2 large crazy golf courses in landscaped gardens with koi-carp filled ponds. If you want a big party it is best to go to the bars and nightclubs of Laganas or Zante Town.
Zante Town was mostly rebuilt in 1953 following a catastrophic earthquake. The coastal road is know as ‘Santa Marina’ and leads to Solomos Square which is always a busy hub of activity. One of the attractions of the square is the statue of Dionysios Solomos, Greece’s national poet who wrote the national anthem. The statue is in the Byzantine Museum. There are restaurants and bars around the square and also around Saint Marcus Square. Bochali is located on a hill above the town and boasts magnificent views of the town and the port. There are some charming restaurants and cafes to visit.

Stunning
Villa is absolutely stunning, just as it looks in the photos, if not better! The space was perfect for our group of 8 friends, each bedroom comfortable with all the amenities needed, aircon, wardrobe space etc., a big kitchen and gorgeous outside space. The pool area was amazing, we spent most of our time outside and had plenty of room to swim, eat and relax. The villa is in a quiet area, so we often felt like there was no one else around us, and that we were living in our own isolated paradise! But you're also in a great location to reach all of the different parts of the island - we didn't rent a car, although it probably would've been useful to. However, we got taxis to and from Zante, and various beaches across the island, for a relatively low price - you're only about 10-15 minutes from most places. The hosts were warm and welcoming, and very understanding when we made a mark on the outside table. All in all I would thoroughly recommend staying here, and will definitely come back myself if I can!
