The views from Rolima, which fan out over the southern tip of Lefkada and across the Ionian Sea to Ithaca and Kefalonia, are worth the trip alone. But this pristine, beautifully finished villa also tempts with its secluded location, its backdrop of verdant wooded hills, its proximity to the beach, water sports facilities and tavernas of buzzing Vassiliki, its azure infinity pool, and its effortless, indoor-outdoor lifestyle. All in all, it's virtually impossible to resist.

The Area
Perched on the southern coast of Lefkada above the paradisiacal beach of Agiofili, Rolima gazes out across the sea to the islands of Kefalonia and Ithaca. Just 2.5km away round the bay is Vassiliki, a water sports hotspot with a beach, shops and plenty of tavernas.
Other beaches nearby include those at Ammoussa and Afteli, both of which are within a 25-minute drive. The famed beaches of the southwest coast - Egremni and Porto Katsiki - are around 40 minutes away.
The capital of Lefkada, Lefkada Town, with its vibrant summer buzz, its restaurants, bars and shops and its marina, is about an hour away.
Rolima is also well-placed for hiking in Lefkada's interior, where the mountains rise to over 1,100m. There is some truly beautiful scenery and a scattering of unspoilt 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. It is, therefore, relatively easy to explore in a week. At its northern point the island is connected to mainland Greece by a floating bridge, while frequent 1-hour ferry crossings connect Vassiliki to Fiskardo on Kefalonia, 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.
