Villa Tigaki 1 Greece
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Tigaki 1 is a luxury seaview villa created with spectacular attention to detail, sitting only 600m from Tigaki beach. With four deluxe bedrooms sleeping up to 8 guests it is a perfect holiday villa for a family or small group of friends. Villa Tigaki sits in extensive immaculately maintained private grounds, mostly laid to lawn with thoughtful planting of new trees and shrubs amongst the mature trees that provide most of the privacy the villa enjoys. Entering through the front door of the villa, there is a double bedroom with king-size bed and a garden view, a well fitted out gym room with hydro massage and steam room cabin, a separate bathroom and laundry room. The first floor has the remaining three bedrooms. All bright, cheery and tastefully decorated, two doubles and one twin, two with stunning sea views and the third with a fabulous view of the mountains, there are also two bathrooms on this level. From here stairs take you up to the second floor, a fabulous open plan area where you will find the lounge, kitchen and two fabulous verandas with what must be one of the most panoramic views in the area — the perfect place to sit and enjoy the spectacular sunsets after a busy day lounging by the pool. The kitchen is white, bright and very light, well equipped with every gadget required to cook at “home”, with large patio doors leading onto a covered terrace area looking south over the mountains, the large dining table is on this side, another smaller table is available on the other side of the kitchen overlooking the sea. Washing up? Well, what a treat! There is the quirkiest little window just above the sink looking out onto the garden – it will surely be a pleasure and maybe even an argument as to who’s turn it is. The lounge area has comfortable sofa and chairs, occasional tables, an open fire and satellite TV, sharing the access to the terraces with occasional tables and chairs on both sides.Villa Tigaki 1 sits 800m from one of the islands many long sandy beaches, this one Tigaki (10km long) perhaps the best of them all with its shallow waters providing perfect for fun for all the family. Tigaki village, just as close as the beach, only 5 minutes walk from the villa offers café’s, tavernas, small local shops and where should you wish to, you can catch the bus to other small villages en route to Kos town 11km away, the main city on the island of Kos, where there is a choice of café’s, restaurants, shops and nightlife to suit everyone. Kos’s culture has evolved out of its rich ancient heritage. Kos old town area around Elefthrias Square is entirely pedestrianised, a fabulous area to meander and visit the smaller local shops and cafés, admire the narrow streets and old buildings and spend some of your holiday euros. The harbour and promenade are more modern, always fun to be around as the boats come and go all day, every day! The bustling harbour area is the centrepiece of the modern town, however, sitting on the left as you enter Kos from the sea is the truly magnificent Kos Castle of the Knights, the Nerantizia Castle. The perimeter walls and in particular the Nerantizia bridge are a very worthwhile visit, the area within the walls is closed to the public at present since a devastating earthquake in 2017. Kos is most famous for being the birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. The tree that he once taught under, the Hippocrates Plane Tree (one of the oldest trees in the world) still stands in Kos town and is revered by many visitors each year. The island is sprinkled with archaeological gems dating back over 3000 years, the most significant and well known of which, the Asklepion, 4km from Kos town, is well worth a visit, fabulous views across to Turkey are to be had if you make it to the top of the stairs. If you want a day off from the beach why not head for the hills, the mountain village of Zia is less than a 20-minute drive from Tigaki, the views on the way up are awesome, from Zia itself, breathtaking. The village is small, but perfectly formed, quaint churches, 3 of them, shops selling local goods and several café’s and tavernas. Should you have the luxury of being able to be away from the villa until sunset, please stay have supper and admire it from here. The port town of Mastichari, 22 km from Kos is an excellent place to sample fresh seafood, local fishermen fill the harbour daily supplying the local tavernas and surrounding villages with their daily catches. The local wine festival held each august is Mastichari’s signature cultural event for those wishing to sample homemade wines Greek delicacies and music. The beach here is ideal for swimming and water sports, windsurfing being a firm favourite.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
