Kathisma Bay Villas

Owner from Auckland, New Zealand

About

I am a proud Kiwi married to my beautiful Greek wife who with we have two young boys. My wife whose family and relatives are local to the Island, spent most of her summer holidays living on the Island. Recently after a 20-year stint in London, UK, we have decided to move back to my home country of NZ for the boys, although maintaining strong oversight of the business with regular visits Greece and our brilliant full time local manager! My wife first introduced me to Lefkada in 2003 and it was on this trip that I was hooked by the stunning undeveloped coast line and amazing west coast beaches with incredible azure and turquoise blue waters, similar to a tropical paradise!! Having spent most of my childhood summers by the sea in New Zealand and Australia, and having travelled extensively around the world, I was taken by the island and knew I just had to get a slice of paradise to build our very own dream Mediterranean summer holiday home. After an extensive search we luckily came across this beautiful Kathisma Beach plot and was immediately taken by the views. We acquired the land in 2007 and after a long and painstaking labour of love the past few years we finally completed the build in 2016! We welcome you as our guests and sincerely hope that you have a relaxing and enjoyable stay and fully appreciate the sheer beauty of the location and the fruits of our labour of love! WHAT MAKES OUR VILLAS UNIQUE? Simply the stunning Ionian Sea views and sunsets that most of our clients would quite simply rate as one of the best in the world! The view constantly changes day by day, night by night, hour by hour, and is as beautiful on a hot summers day, or star filled night, as it is in the middle of a winter storm. It is a view that you would never tire off! During the busy summer months the elevated secluded position of the villas overlooking Kathisma Beach enables you to enjoy the views and feel like you are part of the action at the beach, from the comfort and privacy of your own pool lounger! Location of the villas is also perfect for exploring the beautiful west coast beaches, and is very close to Agios Nikitas (3mins) which offers fantastic taverna's, cafes and bars, as well as plenty of shops for your essential supplies. Kathisma Beach is a large stunning white pebble sand beach on the beautiful West Coast of Lefkada Island, with spectacular azure and turquoise waters and incredible sunsets. It is one of the most well-known and popular beach resorts in Lefkada Island, and during the peak summer months the beach is lively and partly organised with sun loungers and umbrellas serviced by a number of taverna’s and beach cafés/bars. For adrenalin junkies there are also professional paragliding operators offering spectacular flights over the bay of Kathisma. In the quiet season the beach offers serene wild tranquillity at its best. As Lefkada is a large island, we highly recommend hiring a car. Lefkada is the fourth largest Ionian island and is popular but still relatively untouched, offering stunning coastline and beaches with a mountainous pine clad interior, charming character villages, vineyards and great tavernas, café’s and bars. The east coast is more developed and populated with pretty coastline overlooking the island gulf while the west coast is less developed and has an untouched dramatic coastline with stunning vistas. The West Coast of Lefkada is famous for its numerous stunning white pebble sand beaches many of which, are recognised as the best in Greece, including Porto Kastiki, Egremni, Kathisma beach, Milos, Pefkulia and several others which are situated nearby. THINGS TO DO NEARBY: For the active-types the island is also a sailing and water sports mecca, with world-class sailing, windsurfing and kite surfing. Other popular activities include scuba diving, paragliding, hiking and mountain bike tours. Hiring a small powerboat or yacht or taking a charter boat or an organised boat cruise to explore the beautiful east coast and archipelago of many beautiful islands, such as Skorpios (Onassis former island), Meganisi, Kefalonia, and Ithaki.
