We love the location of these apartments and they are perfect for couples or small families wanting the convenience of being able to walk into Gaios.
Traditional in design, the apartments have a separate bedroom and a living area. There is a sofa in the living area that can convert into a bed for a third person. The kitchen is compact but is perfectly adequate for self catering needs.
The balconies enjoy super views across the bay. There is a beach almost on the doorstep and a second within a short walk. Perfect for a refreshing morning swim before breakfast.
Gaios is a 300 metre walk. The pretty harbour front resort retains an authentic Greek atmosphere. Village shops line the narrow back streets and there is a cluster of coffee shops around the square. Restaurants and bars line the harbour front.
If you are looking to visit an island brimming with local charm and a traditional atmosphere, we highly recommend Paxos.
Paxos is a tiny gem that lies in the Ionian Sea just an hour's hydrofoil trip from its larger neighbour Corfu. With no direct flights, this island of pretty harbours and undiscovered coves is delightfully laid-back and off-the-beaten-track.
Gaios is the island town, main harbour and centre of island life. Harbour-side tavernas greet arriving visitors but are well worth a return visit during your stay. Loggos is a pretty village harbour just a 10 minute taxi ride from Gaios and home to several of our Paxos villas and apartments. Perhaps the best way to explore this island is by small boat - simply potter along the shoreline to find your own idyllic cove.
