For a secluded break, this gloriously private villa on Lefkada’s idyllic south coast is hard to top. It’s an hour’s drive from the island’s buzzier center, but you’ll need not head too far to slip into island time. Vasisiliki village, with its golden sands, quaint tavernas, and shops to explore, is just a hop and a skip away, and you’re a stone’s throw from Agiofili beach’s paradisiacal sun-soaked shorelines. Inside, the home’s contemporary styling reflects its beachy surroundings, with pretty seagrass and rope finishes; a big, plush L-shaped sofa everyone can flop onto after a swimming session; and minimal wooden furniture dusted with comfy cushions. Four bedrooms mean it’s perfect for the whole family and groups of friends alike. You’ll want to head outside, however, for the best bit, where there’s a barbecue and terrace for alfresco suppers, plus that deep glittering infinity pool overlooking bucolic Greek scenes.
