About the property

Inside

accommodation at Cape Lougi is spread over two floors of the main villa and a poolside dependence. The main house features a large, and thanks to the four sets of French windows, luminous and panoramic open-concept living and dining area. High beamed ceilings, light colour schemes, quality furnishings and an internationally-flavoured collection of art and artefacts all make for an extremely pleasant and refined environment. Connected to this area is the fully-equipped, contemporary kitchen and, down a couple of steps, a guest bathroom.

At the far end of the living area, a hallway leads to the generously proportioned main double bedroom with a luxurious en-suite bathroom with large walk-in double shower. Boasting stunning sea views and accessing both a private balcony and the communal terrace, this bedroom really deserves the epithet 'master'.

Heading back towards the living area past a shower room, a flight of steps leads downstairs to two large double-twin bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom: one has a fabulous spa-esque sunken bath with shower, the other a walk-in shower. Both of these bedrooms feature large French windows that provide seamless access to a panoramic terrace.

Accommodation at Cape Lougi is completed by the poolhouse, which is home to a double bedroom, a small adjacent shower room and a kitchenette, both of which are accessed externally.

Outside

approaching Cape Lougi for the first time you will be struck by the breathtaking views, the majestic position and then by the charm of the local stone-clad villa and its luxuriant terraced gardens, which stretch out for around 12 acres, affording perfect privacy, peace and tranquillity. Way down below is the sparkling blue of the Ionian Sea and, in the distance, a whole host of neighbouring islands.

Terraces surround the main house and include a shady covered terrace in front of the living area and master bedroom and an outdoor kitchen, complete with a large stone barbecue and bread oven and al fresco dining area. The bedrooms on the lower level also have access to large expanse of panoramic terracing that leads directly to the pool, and a secluded solarium.

Paths crisscross the grounds through the olive groves (from which the owners make some wonderful olive oil) leading to secluded viewing points and the decked plunge pool area with its furnished pagoda.

About the Area

Cape Lougi is situated in the southeast of Lefkada, just over the water from the neighbouring island of Meganissi, a few minutes drive from the village of Poros and a 15-minute drive from the beach, harbour and seafront tavernas of Mikros Gialos, where it is possible to rent boats.

Exploring the island of Lefkada, which is 35km long and 15km wide, is relatively easy in a week (if you can pull yourselves away from the views and pool of the villa!) and offers a great deal to see and do. The azure, transparent waters of the Ionian Sea are a real attraction and the varied coastline includes a host of golden beaches and the dramatic white cliffs of Cape Lefkatas on the southern tip. The wooded mountains of the interior, some of which rise to over 1100m, offer excellent walking, some truly beautiful scenery and a scattering of unspoilt villages where the way of life remains profoundly connected to the island's ancient traditions and customs. The island's capital, Lefkada Town is a buzzing centre with plenty of seafront tavernas and bars, a good selection of shops, and a busy marina.

At its northern point, Lefkada is connected to mainland Greece by a causeway and, via frequent ferry services from the ports of Nidri and Vasiliki, to several of the other islands of the Ionian archipelago (including nearby Meganissi), making it eminently possible to explore further afield.

Considerations

Cape Lougi features a fantastic infinity pool, offering swimmers stunning views while in the pool. There is a drop off on the infinity side so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools. You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.4m, with wide steps for access.

You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.4m, with wide steps for access.

Due to the nature of the property including terraces low walls and several drops around the grounds, children must be supervised at all times

Although largely paved, parts of the access road to this property include some quite steep twists and turns and narrow stretches. We recommend guests rent smaller cars with high ground clearance rather than large people carriers or mini vans.

Please note that due to the risk of wildfires, the use of fire pits and barbecues is restricted when the weather is windy or temperatures are high. This is particularly common in July and August. More information will be provided in your House Guide and via your local specialist.

There are not enough superlatives to do Cape Lougi justice. It is absolutely gorgeous! I just wished we could have stayed longer!

Nicholas French, visited May 2023

We’ve returned to the same villa after ten years and were thrilled to find that paradise can be upgraded. Every small detail of Cape Lougi has been thoroughly considered and integrated to provide this exquisite bubble of bliss on Lefkada.

Steve T. Wickham, visited May 2023

Cape Lougi is absolutely beautiful and has everything you need for a very indulgent stay. The views are breathtaking and the housekeeper could not have been more lovely or helpful.

Cape Lougi was quite simply AMAZING. The view, the care that has been taken with the house, the sense of space and of being surrounded by verdant, unspoilt landscape - it was truly an unforgettable experience for us all. The housekeeper, who came every day to the villa, was remarkable, so friendly and lovely, and so willing to help us. She made the holiday extra special, and we loved her. We didn't meet the owners, but we get a sense that they care about the property, that it is their home, and we appreciated being able to share that.

Mrs Annie Marr-Johnson, United Kingdom, visited August 2022

Cape Lougi never disappoints. This is our second visit, and the villa is of a very high standard and is constantly maintained by a very lovely housekeeper.

Mrs Jane De Jong, United Kingdom, visited July 2022

Cape Lougi was stunning and the owners have fitted it out beautifully to the highest standards.

Our stay at stunning Cape Lougi in Lefkáda was beyond epic. It's a stunning property set high up on a mountain (make sure to rent a 4 X 4) with the most majestic views. The pool was the center of the property - the size and view were beyond our expectations. The landscaping and all the little corners around the property never ceased to entertain my group of eight. The interior of the villa very comfortable and stylish. We all could not stop talking about what a special treat our holiday at Cape Lougi was. It will be forever in our memories. Thank you Thinking Traveller for the complimentary birthday cake and beautiful flowers for my son’s 16th birthday dinner.
