Unspoilt NE Zakynthos
North East Zakynthos is a designated area of outstanding natural beauty. It is a world away from the bustle of the south of the island – quiet, relatively undeveloped and with soft, low hills covered in pine trees leading down to pebbly coves with impossibly blue water.
There are no large hotels in this part of the island and in some ways the area is still untouched by the 21st century. Most of the luxury villas are here, along with the Peligoni Club and the little port of Agios Nikolaos for trips to Kefalonia, Ithaka and Lefkada.
A family day at Halara, as told by one of our guests
“Villa Halara is a magical place of rest and beauty. Built high on a hill, the views over the Ionian Sea towards Kefalonia are breathtaking and there is a lovely breeze that blows in the afternoons. The villa, loggia, terraces and gardens have been designed with careful thought and consideration so that there was ample space for nine of us to come together as a family and friends and yet also find time and space to be alone. Everything is stylish and has a quiet luxury.
We started our days there with yoga at dawn and watched as the sun rose over the sea. We spent mornings swimming and playing in the stunning pool, teenagers sunbathing on the pool inflatables. We had delicious family lunches prepared by the very talented Jess. In the afternoons we enjoyed quiet moments of reading and contemplation in the beautiful gardens where we sat on warm stone benches, surrounded by olive and pomegranate trees and the scent of lavender. Late in the afternoon we would drive down to the explore a number of idyllic local covers where we swam before heading home for supper and games.
The staff at the villa were brilliant and kind and worked so hard to make our stay restful. I would say that Villa Halara offers the perfect family holiday; the kind where even the mum gets to lie by the pool.
