Ensconced in the fragrant, emerald green pine woods of Lefkada's southwestern promontory, Noiya occupies a panoramic position that has few rivals. Down below are two of the island's most iconic beaches, and the charming seafront village of Vassiliki is close by, but once settled in, you may feel little inclination to leave behind the inspiring contemporary design, the luxurious touches, attentive service and the splendid array of amenities that make Noiya such a joy to experience. As featured on Netflix’s reality competition series, Surviving Paradise.

The Area
Noiya sits in a fabulous cliff-top position on the southwestern tip of Lefkada, about a 20-minute drive from the beach, shops, tavernas and watersports hotspot of Vassiliki.
Down below, a 5- and a 20-minute drive away respectively, are the idyllic sandy-pebbly beaches of Porto Katsiki and Egremni, two of the loveliest and most dramatically situated on Lefkada. The area is known for its towering chalky-white cliffs, sensational views and electric blue waters.
A selection of other beaches on the west coast can be reached within a 30-minute drive north, including those at Lagouna, Megali Petra and Avali.
The capital of Lefkada, Lefkada Town, with its vibrant summer buzz, its restaurants, bars and shops and its marina, is about an hour away.
Noiya 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 (if you can pull yourselves away from the views and pools of Noiya). At its northern point the island is connected to mainland Greece by a floating bridge and, via frequent ferry services from the port of Nidri, 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.
Discover
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.
Discover
Cycling on Lefkada
Discover Lefkada’s stunning landscapes by bike. For more independent cyclists, renting a bike is great option, and you’ll have GPS with self-guided itineraries to point you in the right direction. One of our guided bike tours also makes a great addition to any stay in Lefkada, taking you onto the island’s hidden tracks in the company of experienced riders who know these trails inside out.

Noiya is THE GREEK DREAM! No need to say that the villa is outstanding, from the panoramic view to the exceptional architecture and layout. There is something for al tastes there: 2 pools, a basketball court, a ping pong table and even a trampoline. My guests were amazed by the overall quality of the experience and said it exceeded all their expectations. I really need to praise the wonderful team there from the exceptional cook that amazed our French tastebuds to the housekeepers, who were super efficient and friendly. A true masterpiece of a villa!
