Property Description
Welcome to Ithaca and villa Viola.
Ithaca, a hidden gem, will enchant you with its unspoilt nostalgic character and its dramatically beautiful nature. Blessed since ancient times, here on Ithaca you will discover the most stunning emerald green waters and exotic white pebble beaches, as well as the splendour of mediterranean nature. This legendary Greek island, the home of King Odysseus, is the perfect metaphor for the purpose in life, one which we never stop pursuing. (Constantine Kavafy Poem - Ithaca).
Villa Viola enjoys a secluded beachfront location inside seven acres of private gardens, surrounded by untouched pine forest. At the same time the property boasts a proximity to the lovely port of Vathi, the capital of the island, just a five minute drive or delightful 20 minute walk away.
The retro/colonial colourful style of the property brings a joyful and deeply mindful wellness experience with dramatic sea views while the one of kind lake-feeling architecture of the pool, creates a herbal paradise scenery.
The western location of the property ensures plenty of sunshine, much more than any other part of the island.
The interiors feature a warm and cozy atmosphere with the fireplace, carpets and quilts. A unique living room full of vintage pieces and colourful, carefully selected antiques, including Roche Bobois furniture, promises unique moments of relaxation with friends and family.
Villa Viola can accommodate 8-10 people in its 4 bedrooms, inclusive of the private cottage. The villa is a fully equipped property and can be rented all year round.

Ithaca is the second smallest of the Ionian islands, still unspoiled. A gorgeous rocky island with verdant vegetation, mountainous villages with traditional character that is generally identified with Homer’s Ithaca, the home of Odysseus from Odyssey and Cavafy’s “Ithaca,” the symbol of adventure, travel and continuous pursuit.
It stands among the other Ionian islands as calm and wild, simple and genuine, romantic and poetic, mysterious and legendary, all at the same time. Its architecture is based on a mixture of cultural influences from the Venetians and British who conquered the island in the past. Most houses are built using wood and stone with no balconies but with lovely gardens and clean yards.
The largest part of the island is amphitheatrically built and you can find elegant mansions with many characteristics from the renaissance architecture there.
Vathy is the main town. A full sized marina including dock and wet mooring slips will allow you to sail the island in absolute comfort. The Ithaca Yacht club stands proud of its elegant dining room and pub with a full service that can become a yachtsman’s paradise.
Gentle, calm, clear waters make Ithaca one of the safest sailing areas in the world. Swim in the crystal waters of Filiatro, Sarakiniko and Agios Ioannis or find your own secluded coves. Walk along trekking paths, have your fresh seafood at the local, traditional tavernas and chat with the welcoming locals. Meditate, have a relaxing drink and view zillions of stars in the night sky as you attempt to seize the day and find the meaning of life. Other known small and charming villages in Ithaca are: Frikes, Kioni, Perahori, Lefki and Exogi
Reach Ithaca by boat or your private/rental yacht and once there, move around by car. It is accessible from the ports of Patras, Kefalonia and Lefkada. Once in the island, you can move around by car or taxi. Heath centre for emergencies is located in Vathy.
