Artists Villas-Lilac Lilium. Ιδιωτική βίλα, με οικολογική πισίνα, εκπληκτική θέα

Great host, really very helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Lilac Lilium Artists Villa. The property is beautifully decorated and fully equipped with everything you could wish for. Both the inside and outside are impeccably maintained and our host Andreas went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. He shared his list of suggested stops and we enjoyed them all. The pool is overlooking the sea and was a much loved spot for us after a day of enjoying all that Gaios had to offer. The outside dining and grill was also a much enjoyed feature. We can't wait to return!

It was stunning scenery and a beautiful villa located in a very beautiful spot.. tranquil and perfect for us.. we loved it

We have just had a lovely holiday on beautiful Paxos. Villa Lillac was gorgeous. The views down to Gaios were stunning, definitely the best view on the island. The outside space was perfect & well thought out, we enjoyed bbqs & watching the moon come up just beautiful.

Very straight forward Andreas was very helpful at all times

Property was stunning inside and out. More than enough space for 4 people and had all the amenities you could need. The outside area of the property is the icing on the cake though, bbq, 2 dining areas (both very romantic and cosy with candles everywhere) pool and an absolutely stunning view of Gaios and the bay, which is only a 5 minute walk away (downhill!). Villa is completely secluded despite having another property next door, you would never know. Couldn’t fault any part of the villa or Andreas who was so unbelievably helpful throughout our whole stay and extremely knowledgable about the area. 5 stars all round

The villa has a perfect layout, it’s furnished and decorated beautifully, and has the most amazing views of Gaios and the sea. It is up a steep hill, but walking distance of the shops and restaurants. We hired a car for a few days so we could visit Lakka, Loggos and a few beaches - although I believe there is a good bus service and water taxis. We also hired a boat for a day and it was fantastic to go all around the island and see the caves, and beaches at Antipaxos. Andreas is a wonderful host who helped us to the villa with our luggage and showed us around. There was a very generous gift basket of goodies and a wonderful housekeeper who was very unobtrusive but visited daily to clean and tidy up. The villa is even nicer than the photos and is decorated to a very high standard with some lovely artwork by Andreas’s wife. The infinity pool must have one of the best views in the world. All the restaurants we ate in seemed to be of a very high standard. We had a couple of barbecues at the villa with very reasonably priced pre-made kebabs, stuffed peppers and mushrooms from the local butchers. The supermarkets will deliver to the villa (as will one of the Taverna’s). There are only a few taxis on the island and we were struggling to get one to take us to the port for our early ferry when we were leaving and Andreas very kindly offered to help - it’s not too far but would have been a struggle down the hill with our luggage. This holiday far exceeded our expectations and we truly hope to go back one day!

If you want privacy and tranquility, Villa Lilac Lillium is the one for you. It’s location just above Gaios has the best sea view and is situated only 5 min drive from Gaios new port and the town centre. If you feel energetic you can walk down in 15 min to the many shops and tavernas, but be warned that your returned walk is up a very steep hill, a car rental is highly recommended. The villa is appointed to a very high standard and decorated in a colourful and artistic style. Andreas the owner couldn’t have been more helpful, he gave us loads of useful tips on the best places and beaches to visit, also recommended us with excellent tavernas, We fell in love with this villa and Paxos. Thank you Andreas for a wonderful holiday.

The villa of the very helpful host Andreas is a great place overlooking the Gaios port. We recommend it!

We travel a fair amount each year, and are no strangers to hiring apartments and cottages, but Villa Lilac was different. It is seldom that we stay at a property and think that for two weeks (apart from my scratching the hire car!) there was not a single thing that we would have changed or wished for. From the evening that Andreas the owner of the villa met us at the ferry, till he so kindly met us at the harbour at dawn to say goodbye, he was the perfect host. From batteries to bulbs, advice to assistance, he was friendly, discreet and helpful. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble, and all done with courtesy and a genuine interest in making our holiday a special one The villa is in perfect order, very well equipped, with a powerful wi-fi connection. The quality of the fittings is high – offhand, I cannot think of anything that we needed. It is serviced and kept spotless almost every day by Lora, who was cheerful and helpful. Villa Lilac is situated about a kilometre from the town of Gaios, up a (very!) steep track, some 50m from Andreas’ other villa on a hillside overlooking the town. Surrounded by oak trees, scrub and olive groves, the fabulous infinity pool and poolside dining area is totally private. Because of its location, you really need a hire car. I would recommend Angelo’s to hire from, but be sure to establish the terms of insurance before you turn a key. The view is stunning. It was a delight to get up at dawn each morning to watch the loom of the sun break over the distant Greece coast and reach towards Paxos. Of the three towns on Paxos, Gaios is the one to be near – there are many restaurants, bakeries and shops to visit, plus an ever-changing harbour side as the yachting flotilla’s come and go. The other two - Lakka and Loggos - are certainly worth visiting. Each has a special charm. We are boat savvy, and hired a planning motorboat from Spyros Boat Hire in Lakka most days. I can’t recommend him enough – knowledgeable, helpful and most helpful, with well-equipped easy to use boats. Don’t waste your time with the other boat hire establishments! (See separate Tripadvisor reviews) The boat took us to those hard to get to coves, and also South to the little island of Antipaxos. The coves there are stunning, and a day at anchor swimming in your very own cove with fish for company, is unforgettable. In summary, one of the best breaks that we have ever had, largely due to a beautiful Villa, and a perfect host. We will be back soon! B&G
