Description
Like the jewel-bright flowers that adorn the Greek island of Kefalonia, luxury Villa Oleander is a natural beauty amidst the ocean blue.
You get two houses for the price of one at Villa Oleander, but this is as far removed from bargain basement as you can get. As you arrive at your private estate, you enter a beautiful setting where two charming buildings huddle together around a gnarled old oak tree and a shimmering pool. The low level construction of this contemporary luxury villa, hugging the contours of the rocky coastline, creates a sense of natural harmony.
Secluded and surrounded by Kefalonia’s flora and fauna, Villa Oleander is a beautifully kept hideaway, and the live-in housekeeper is there to welcome you and make you feel at home. Daily cleaning and a twice weekly linen change is included, and you have the option of hiring any number of additional staff to ramp up the luxe factor. How about a private chef to tempt your tastebuds? A yoga instructor for sun salutations? Or a qualified nanny to help look after the kids?
Inside Villa Oleander everything dazzles in shades of white and exposed stone. The chic designer furniture, airy living spaces and huge windows create an oasis of light-filled calm. It’s an unusual design, with one building housing the master bedroom and the main living and dining area, whilst the second building houses three beautiful and stylish bedrooms.
Feel the heat of the sun as you lie back on the loungers scattered around the paved terrace beside the pool. Just look around. Take in the delectable views over the Ionian Sea and to the mountains of Albania in the distance. Take a walk amongst the fragrant flowers and rocky seascape with the breeze in your hair. This is the perfect place to unwind and leave the cares of the world behind you.
Just up the road are the little whitewashed houses of Fiskardo, a traditional fishing village where you can relax alfresco in a taverna, sipping a chilled glass of wine, watching the days catch being landed. And, there are lots of wonderful beaches within striking distance. It’s just five minutes to the nearest quiet sandy cove for a spot of snorkelling and sunbathing.
