Villa Lioniskari is a charming traditional villa situated on a headland at the entrance to Mogonissi Bay, just a short drive south of Gaios town. This glorious setting enjoys sea views to Anti-Paxos and the Greek mainland beyond. With the completion of a new swimming pool, this pretty villa is now more appealing than ever!
Several beaches lie within a short walk of the villa, including the beach at Mogonissi. Alternatively hire a boat from Gaios port to seek out undiscovered coves and bays or take to a day trip to Anti-Paxos with its fine sandy beaches.

The main living area is an open-plan lounge / dining room / kitchen that is fully-equipped for up to six guests. French doors open onto a large covered veranda that makes the most of the villa's raised hillside position and those superb sea views.
In the main house there is one double and one twin bedroom, the third bedroom is a double located in the spacious attached self contained studio with en suite facilities, all bedrooms provide comfortable, air-conditioned accommodation. Lioniskari is also an excellent choice for couples seeking a private Paxos villa with pool.

A drive South along the coastal road from Gaios leads to lagoon-like Mogonissi Bay which offers a fine sandy beach, watersports such as windsurfing and canoeing as well as a taverna right on the beach which serves drinks and good food. In contrast the southern coastline features rocky cliffs, high seas and panoramic views of idyllic Anti-Paxos to the south.
A short walk from Villa Lioniskari along the East coast leads to one of the many pebble coves with excellent swimming, while Mogonissi's sandy beach is just a few minutes walk further South. The tavernas, shops and amenities of Gaios Town are less than 3 km (10 minutes) by car from the villa.
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.
