My sister and I stayed at the Villa Liladi in July 2024. It’s in a quiet village surrounded by woodland, with superb views across to Ithaca and Lefkada. There are two big patio areas and a beautiful pool which is hidden from view.
On our first day we were left a lovely hamper in the fridge of juice, beer, wine, fruit and vegetables. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a BBQ.
We saw beautiful sunrises, and the colours across the channel were spectacular in an evening. At night the skies are dark enough to see the Milky Way.
The housekeepers, Makis and his wife, live downstairs, so we felt very safe. They kindly brought us fresh linen and waste-paper bags halfway through the week. Makis kept the pool spotlessly clean early every morning.
There are supermarkets in Fiskardo, and in Magganos. We enjoyed meals out in both locations (around 12 mins’ drive). We had some breakfasts and coffees in Fiskardo, best enjoyed earlier in the morning before the crowds. The bakery, as well as pastries and breads, sold excellent ice-creams! We rented a boat from Regina’s boats for a day, don’t forget to bring a snorkel, and book in advance.
We recommend the boat trip to Ithaca on the ‘Odysseas’, again with some beautiful swimming spots, snorkelling, and stops at Frikes and Kioni.
Assos is 30 mins’ drive away. On the way, stop at Jerusalem Beach. We borrowed the parasol from the villa. It is quite rocky, but it’s quiet in the morning, the swimming is good and there’s lots of sea-life.
