Immersed in the timeless peace of Paxos’ verdant hills, yet within easy reach of the beaches, tavernas and summery buzz of Gaios, Lakka and Loggos, Aperghis villa is an utterly charming home designed by architect Dominic Skinner for lovers of contemporary country chic and laid-back al fresco living.
The accommodation at Aperghis sits amidst a garden of mature shady olive trees. Dry stone walls give way to stone-flagged terraces and sun-baked borders planted with aromatic plants, herbs and flowers. The terraces wrap around the living and sleeping quarters, offering up numerous areas for sitting, snoozing in a hammock, cooking, and dining.
Interiors are comfortable and finished in cool, gentle tones that are enhanced by the light that flows throughout. The villa has 3 bedrooms with 3 en suite bathrooms, the living space is open plan and there is a well-equipped kitchen with everything quests need to enjoy eating and relaxing on the terrace or by the swimming pool area in amongst the gorgeous olive trees.
This villa sits between Lakka and Gaios and the pretty village of Magazia, with its tavernas and much-loved kafenion in minutes away. There are a number of local beaches within easy reach as well as exploring the delights of Paxos from this charming villa, all together create a setting for an unforgettable stay.
Immediately outside the day house is a dreamy al fresco sitting and dining area with built-in barbecue. A pergola on the opposite side of the day house offers another option for al fresco meals.
The sleeping wing, meanwhile, has its own shady furnished terrace from where, via a few steps, one reaches the inviting pool with its submerged sitting area.
Finally, the garden guesthouse has its own wrap-around terrace with a little outdoor kitchen, a sitting area and a dining table and chairs.
accommodation at Aperghis villa is spread over three separate, charmingly Paxiot stone-clad buildings.
The first two of these are gathered around the pool area, which is the true hub of the property, and interconnect via a series of stone-flagged terraces.
The first, the day house, hosts an open-plan, many-windowed living area and kitchen with lofty, white, wood-beamed ceilings, exposed stone feature walls and well-chosen, stylish furnishings.
To one end of this space is a utility room and a guest bathroom, while at the center, a wide doorway provides seamless access to the wrap-around terraces.
A few meters away is the second building, the sleeping wing, comprising three calming, stylish wood-clad bedrooms, a double and two double-twins, each with its own en-suite shower room and independent access from a terrace overlooking the pool.
