The Area
Alkioni sits in a privileged private position on the eastern side of the Mongonissi peninsula in the south of Paxos. At the bottom of the garden one may access the sea directly, while a short stroll will take you to Paxos' only sandy beach, popular with families thanks to the many facilities, including a lido, watersports and a couple of tavernas. A 15-minute drive north will take you up to Gaios Town, with its gentle buzz, its seafront tavernas and cafés and its shops boat hire opportunities. Gaios is the port of entry and departure, and also has frequent boat services to Corfu and Paxos' tiny sister island, Antipaxos. The picturesque little ports of Lakka and Laggos in the northern part of the island are also worth a visit either by car or by boat.
Paxos (measuring around 13km from north to south) is situated 15km south of Corfu and about 20km off the Greek mainland. It boasts some of the most stunning beaches anywhere in the Mediterranean and, as it's only accessible by ferry, has managed to remain relatively unspoilt by mass tourism.
The western seaboard of Paxos is dramatic, with cliffs, sea caves and stretches of rugged, rocky coastline, while the east coast is home to gentle sandy beaches and views of the Greek mainland. The hinterland is carpeted with olive groves, which produce some truly excellent oil.
A holiday on Paxos is all about relaxing and taking it easy, all the more so if you book one of our villas on the island.
