Situated high up above Lefkada's west coast, and gazing out over the buzzing little village of Exanthia and the silver sea below, Casa Condriada is a contemporary ode to Greek living: respectful of tradition, but imbued with an almost levitational airiness and lightness of touch. This is particularly true as the gentle rays of the setting sun bathe the terraces, the pool and the interiors in a sepia-tinted hue of dreamlike tranquillity.

The Area
Casa Condriada is situated in the western hills of Lefkada, just a few minutes' walk from the village of Exanthia, whose tavernas, bars and cafés come alive in the summer months. A short drive down below, passing through the village of Kalimitsi, is a series of idyllic beaches, including those of Kathisma, Megali Petra, Avali and Pefkoulia.
A 30-minute drive to the north will take you to the island's capital, Lefkada Town, which has a vibrant buzz about it in the summer, thanks to its host of restaurants, bars, shops and its marina.
The area around Casa Condriada is also ideal for walking, as is most of the island's interior: with mountains rising to over 1,100m, there is some truly beautiful scenery and a scattering of unspoiled villages where the way of life remains profoundly connected to the island's ancient traditions and customs.
Lefkada measures 35km from its northern tip to the dramatic white cliffs of Cape Lefkatas in the south and just 15km from east to west. This being the case, it is relatively easy to explore in a week (if you can pull yourselves away from the views and pool of the villa!). At its northern point the island is connected to mainland Greece by a floating bridge and, via frequent ferry services from the ports of Nidri and Vasiliki, to several of the other islands of the Ionian archipelago (including nearby Meganissi), making it eminently possible to travel further afield.

Boat trips in Lefkada
The azure, transparent waters of the Ionian Sea are a real attraction and the varied coastline boasts a host of sandy beaches, secluded pebbly coves and dramatic white cliffs, such as those of Cape Lefkatas on the southernmost tip. Most beaches can be reached by car and a walk, though a few are only accessed via sea, a good excuse for hiring a boat for a day or two.

Boat trips in Meganisi
The north of Meganissi is home to a seemingly endless array of dreamy bays with transparent blue waters, golden beaches, and emerald pinewoods. The best way to explore them is by boat, and you have two options: either rent your own with the help of our Local Concierges (they know all the best people); or let our experienced Specialists arrange a day or two on board one of our skippered charters. The sense of freedom you experience from cruising around, dropping anchor, and diving into the irresistible sea is like nothing else.

Boat rental in Lefkada
A holiday in the sun would not be complete without exploring the breath-taking coastline, majestic cliffs and glistening azure sea that your destination has to offer. The best way to experience this spectacle is from your very own rental boat, pottering along at a leisurely pace and occasionally stopping off to drop anchor and swim in secluded bays.
