Lillian Villa

Lillian Villa is an exquisitely renovated traditional residence nestled in the tranquil hamlet of Velianitatika, just 2km from Gaios. This refined retreat harmoniously blends authentic Paxiot architecture with contemporary luxury, featuring a stunning counter-current pool, extensive Mediterranean gardens, and a unique pool house office. The villa’s privileged location offers easy access to the island’s dramatic west coast.

THE SPACE:
This masterfully restored villa spans 140 square meters of sophisticated living space, thoughtfully designed to embrace both heritage and modern comfort. The ground floor welcomes you with an open-plan living area, where exposed stone walls and terracotta floors create an atmosphere of timeless elegance. The living room features comfortable seating and a flat-screen TV, while the adjacent dining area connects seamlessly to a state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with premium appliances, including a dishwasher.

The ground floor hosts a serene double bedroom and a well-appointed bathroom with shower. A striking wooden spiral staircase leads to the mezzanine level, where you’ll find the master bedroom with en-suite bathroom and two additional double bedrooms sharing a luxurious bathroom with shower. Each bedroom is appointed with premium linens and custom Villa L towels.

The villa’s outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with multiple terraces offering both sun and shade. The showpiece counter-current pool is surrounded by comfortable loungers, while the covered alfresco dining area and built-in seating zones provide perfect spots for relaxation. A unique addition is the pool house, featuring a single bed and dedicated office space – ideal for those seeking a peaceful work retreat.

OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
• The property features an architecturally stunning wooden spiral staircase that requires careful navigation, particularly for children or elderly guests.
• Access to some bedrooms via the mezzanine level may present challenges for those with mobility concerns.
• While the villa’s location offers serenity and privacy, a car is essential as most amenities require a short drive.
• The west coast beaches, though just a 10-minute walk away, are accessed via traditional island paths with some uneven terrain.

LOCATION DESCRIPTION:
Velianitatika offers an authentic glimpse into traditional Paxiot life while maintaining convenient proximity to amenities. The charming harbor town of Gaios is just 2km away, where you’ll find tavernas, cafes, shops, and the vibrant waterfront promenade. Local grocery stores and restaurants are within 1.5km, while the Paxos Medical Center is a reassuring 2km distance.
