About this property
Villa Alkinoos: Secluded, private pool, WiFi, A/C
Villa Alkinoos is a stone built holiday home, located amid the olive grove of a private landscape, in Makratika neighbourhood, just a two minutes drive from Gaios, Paxos, with lush gardens, private pool (10 X 5 m) and lovely surrounding terraces.
Alkinoos boasts a wonderful garden, air-conditioning, a lot of dining al fresco facilities, private parking and it is really spacious for a family or party of 6 persons, in three bedrooms.
Layout The front staircase lands on a stone paved terrace on the left hand side of the main entrance of the house, which opens into a living area, fully furnished and decorated with a fireplace.
At the back, via an archway, there is a dinning space and a fully equipped kitchen, (with a back secondary door to the other areas of the house). On the right-hand side of the living room is a hallway to the three bedrooms.
The first one is a double, the next is the Master bedroom, with doors opening onto the front balcony and the third one a twin bedroom. Two of the bedrooms are air-conditioned, whilst the third is supported by a fan.
All three of them share a modern spacious shower room.
Pool and Terraces On the right-hand side of the front terrace, underneath an eternal olive tree, there is a stone-made table for dinning al- fresco. A couple of steps further a small staircase leads on an elevated terrace and the large sunny pool.
The pool faces East and is surrounded by stone-paved terraces, flowers and beautiful greenery. All sunbathing and relaxing facilities are available.
The property- in general - is characterized by the tranquillity of the location, the abundant use of locally mined stone, the magnificent gardens with the large selection of flowers and the enormous choices for proper relaxing spots within its landscape.
The Location Makratika neighbourhood, where villa Alkinoos is located, is considered a popular place due to the proximity to Paxos Beach Club, the lovely surrounding villas and the very short proximity to Gaios (1 km away) or to the hidden nearby coves.

Very nice quiet location especially if you want to avoid the noisy streets of Gaios during high season, but without having to stay at a remote villa kms away from everything. Awesome pool nice surroundings, everything clean and nice value for money considering what most villas in Paxos are asking. Highly recommended.

We had a fantastic stay at Villa Alkinoos.
We had a fantastic stay at Villa Alkinoos. The villa is located a 10 minute walk up the hill from the lovely harbour town of Gaios. The villa was super clean and well equipped. The garden and pool area was beautifully landscaped with great outdoor furniture and plenty of places to sit and eat or relax. We particularly liked the location which was so convenient to the port and the town/harbour. A beautiful stay on a beautiful island. A great option if you want a few days of relaxation and are not wanting to hire a car.

Villa Alkinoos is a gem
Villa Alkinoos is a gem. It's well appointed and, as a family of five we loved it. There are 2 beautifully shaded outdoor eating areas and a huge pool terrace which is great for hanging out, messing about in the pool ad sunbathing. Inside the bedrooms are spacious, the kitchen is well fitted out and the air con provided wonderful relief in the heat of the day! The villa is a short walk into Gaios, although for getting around the island generally, and for shopping I'd recommend hiring a car. Paxos is a beautiful island, and Villa Alkinoos is a wonderful base from which to explore. We'll definitely be coming back to the island and would highly recommend Villa Alkinoos for anyone looking for a holiday villa to rent.

We would come back anytime.
We have traveled Greece intensively for years, Villa Alkinoos was one of the nicest quarters. The exposed location above the sea and the extremely beautiful garden with pool thrill immediately. The equipment with kitchen appliances was better than in many other accommodations, self-catering is easily possible. The way to Gaios to shopping was not a problem for us, of course you can rent a car. The villa is well maintained by a very lovely young lady who lives on the neighboring property.

Truly wonderful holiday
After postponing our trip three times due to Covid, we were really really looking forward to our holiday break. It didnt disappoint. Three girlfriends in our 60s, it was the perfect spot to unwind and spend precious time together after a fraught couple of years. The villa is just out of Gaios, which suited us very well. Away from the hustle and bustle and beautifully quiet, but only s short walk downhill to go to the tavernas and shops when we wanted to. We found a very friendly taxi driver (Nicos) to drive us up the hill if it was too hot to walk, although we managed two journeys! The pool and outside is beautifully designed and lots of choice of eating and drinking spaces to make use of the sun shade and different views. Inside is a little brown and maybe could do with some colour and design input! Otherwise it was fabulous.

The place was very clean and the host was so easy to contact with any questions.
The place was very clean and the host was so easy to contact with any questions. It's walking distance to the centre and all the taxi drivers know the villa name immediately if you want to go further. We were a group of 6 girls and it was the perfect size for us. Also the pool is really big! A lot of different seating areas too which is great. Thank you so much for having us, we won't forget it. Kind regards, Maryam
