The Area
Lithia is situated just 800m from the lovely village of Gaios and its beach. Gaios and the other two main villages on the island, Lakka and Laggos, are picturesque, welcoming little harbours with idyllic seafront tavernas, shops and bars. Gaios is the port of entry and departure, and also has frequent boat services to Corfu and Paxos' tiny sister island, Antipaxos.
Paxos (measuring around 13km from north to south) is situated 15km south of Corfu and about 20km off the Greek mainland. It boasts some of the most stunning beaches anywhere in the Mediterranean and, as it's only accessible by ferry, has managed to remain relatively unspoilt by mass tourism.
The western seaboard of Paxos is dramatic, with cliffs, sea caves and stretches of rugged, rocky coastline, while the east coast is home to gentle sandy beaches and views of the Greek mainland. The hinterland is carpeted with olive groves, which produce some truly excellent oil.
A holiday on Paxos is all about relaxing and taking it easy, all the more so if you book one of our villas on the island.

Private boat charters on Paxos and Antipaxos
Exploring the breathtaking coast by boat is a must and an excellent way to get to know the islands, stopping off for swims in secluded bays. The east of Paxos is gentle, with placid waters lapping pebbly beaches: the west has a more rugged, weather-beaten look that can only be fully appreciated from the water. To experience all this in style, why not book a day out on one of our private skippered charters.

We enjoyed Lithia and would return. What stood out for us was the outdoor space and the terraces.
RH August 2024
We loved the romantic ambiance and general vibe at Lithia. We had a heavenly week and are definitely thinking about booking next year.
Anonymous July 2024
Lithia was rustic, which added to the experience of the island. The multiple outdoor spaces gave us many options for dining and relaxing outside. The location close to Gaios was perfect to stroll into the village as needed.
MI May 2024
Beautiful setting, beautiful gardens with lovely sheltered pool, delightful sprawling house, wandering chickens and sweet cats adds to the rural feel.
