About the property
Inside
accommodation at Panayia is spread over a main house, an independent guesthouse, and an externally accessed guest bedroom.In the main house, a few steps lead down from the front door into an open-plan living and dining area, whose white-painted walls, lofty beamed ceilings and large sliding glass doors opening onto a panoramic sea-view terrace, all make for a bright, airy atmosphere. One half of the room is given over to a corner sitting area, the other to a dining table. Wherever you sit, the views over the olive groves to the island of Panayia and out to sea are gorgeous. At the back of this space, a few steps leads up to an attractive open kitchen overlooking the communal area.
A few steps at either end of the living-dining area lead to the sleeping quarters, which comprise:
- a soothing main bedroom, complete with en-suite shower room and access to a terrace with outdoor shower
- a double-twin with terrace access
- a quadruple with children's bunk beds and a double-twin bed with terrace access (NB this room is only suitable for children or parents sharing with their children)
- two shared shower rooms
The guesthouse comprises large, open-plan, split-level space with high, white-beamed ceilings and banks of large sliding glass doors. From the dining table a few steps lead down to a sitting room and kitchen, off which is a small shower room. Stairs lead up to the first floor, where there is a double bedroom with garden views and an en-suite shower room.
A few steps away from the guesthouse, and sharing its furnished sea-view terrace, is the externally accessed guest bedroom, a twin with en-suite shower room.
Outside
Panayia View's gardens stretch all along the front of the property and overlook the olive groves, the sea, Panayia Island and, in the distance, the Greek mainland.Outside the main house is a fabulous sea-view terrace, partly shaded by olive trees. Other terraces on either side of the main house are accessed from the bedrooms and ensure that there is plenty of space for everyone to find their own perfect spot.
A rosemary, lavender, agapanthus and cactus-lined path leads from the main house's front terrace both left and right. Head right and down a few steps and you come to the lovely pool area, encircled by whispering olive trees. Head left and you'll soon come to the guesthouse and the externally accessed twin bedroom, which are served by their own fully furnished sea-view terrace.

About the Area
Panayia View sits in a slightly raised position looking out to sea and the east coast of Paxos. Surrounded by rustling olive groves it offers seclusion and privacy while still being within walking distance of the bustling village of Gaios. Indeed, a 15/20-minute (1km) walk will take you from the villa's gates down the hill to the harbour with its seafront tavernas, shops, cafés, beach and boat hire opportunities. The picturesque little ports of Lakka and Laggos are also close by and worth a visit either by car or by boat.
Gaios is the port of entry and departure, and also has frequent boat services to Corfu and Paxos' tiny sister island, Antipaxos.
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.

Considerations
The access to Panayia View includes around 500m of unpaved road.
Due to the nature of the property including terraces low walls and several drops around the grounds, children must be supervised at all times.
You may also wish to know that the pool has a single depth of 1.6m.
Please note that the quadruple bedroom, which has children's bunk beds and a double-twin bed, is only suitable for children or parents sharing with their children.

The villa was perfect for our teenagers, near Gaios and the buzz and we loved all the restaurants, beaches and relaxing at the villa. Paxos is very special.

We loved Panayia View and the town of Gaios. We had never been to Greece as a family, and it did not disappoint! The number of different seating areas was amazing.

This was the best holiday we’ve had in many years. The design of Panayia View worked perfectly for our family and everyone was so happy. My grandchildren have not stopped talking about it since.
