Villa Trixy is set in ancient olive groves of Frini, overlooking the azure blue Ionian Sea, on the Greek island of Lefkada. The villa is forty minutes from the nearest international airport of Aktion in Prevaza, or you can island hop from Ithaki, Kefalonia or Meganisi. It is a short five-minute drive into the main town of Lefkada, where you can purchase all the provisions you will need to cater for your holiday. The villa is located on the north of the island, where there is a causeway that connects it to mainland Greece. Nearby and down the west coast there are many fabulous famous golden sandy beaches with crystal clear waters, most notably Agios Ioannis, then Kathisma, Porto Katsiki, Agiofili, and Egremni. Many of the beaches are organised with sun loungers and brollies, a selection of water sports, and cafes and bars.

Lefkada is famous for its dense forests and mountains; walk, trek, hike, climb or cycle these inland regions, and take guided tours on well-worn tracks, as you pass the island’s flora and fauna. Admire the views of Mount Elati, at 1 150m above sea level, it is the highest peak on Lefkada. Visit the capital town of Lefkes, with its central square of Agios Spyridon, and many beautiful Greek Orthodox churches with original icons, and works of the Ionian School of Painting. Walk down Mela Street, with its arcades of souvenir shops and traditional houses, before visiting the Archeological, Gramophone, and Folklore Museums. Stop at a welcoming family-run taverna to enjoy some homemade meze washed down with a glass of ouzo. The picturesque fishing village of Vassilki is thirty-eight kilometres from the villa, on the south coast. The area is well known for its beautiful organised beaches, and excellent water sports, particularly windsurfing. From here you can take the ferry and island hop to Ithika and Kefalonia.

The village of Poros has verdant slopes, populated with traditional two-storey terracotta-roofed houses, winding alleyways, a fourth-century castle, and the Church of Analipsi, with its Byzantine icons and frescoes. See the yachts at Sivota, as you sit and watch the fishing boats unload their daily catch for the local restaurants. The village of Santa Maria is rich in the cultural history of the island, it has a tiny church, a nineteenth-century castle, a fifteenth-century mosque, and a Venetian Christian temple, with a stone bell tower. There are the two sea lake lagoons of Lefkada, in the protected area of Divari and Ivaria, home to migratory sea birds, gulls, herons, and swans, as well as hares, foxes, and ferrets.

No visit to Lefkada is complete without a boat tour of the island, and even better let the concierge arrange your own private yacht charter with your own captain. Sail the Ionian Sea, swim, snorkel, and sunbathe, enjoy a meze lunch aboard, then embark at cocktail hour, as the sun begins to set. Visit the vineyards and sample the varieties of wine the island has to offer, and after dark dance the night away under the twinkling stars.
