Description

WELCOME TO VILLA GABRIELLA

A large luxury villa on Lefkada – the jewel of the Ionian islands. A uniquely secluded location amidst a pine & cypress forest offering unrivalled privacy with the nearest other properties some 600m away. Large terraces with breathtaking sea views across Lefkada, Meganissy & the Princess Islands. A 7m heated infinity pool, poolside pergola, pool bar & hot tub. Yet just 7-8 minutes from the nearest beach.

There's a virtual 360-degree tour of the villa available if you find our website. Search the obvious to find us!

A beautifully appointed, air-conditioned, open-plan lounge with carefully selected modern & antique furnishings. Fireplace with log-burner. 42” flat screen TV/DVD & high-quality bluetooth music speakers.

Fully equipped, granite-topped, kitchen including American-style fridge-freezer, integrated oven/hob/microwave, dishwasher, bean-to-cup espresso machine.

BBQ & shaded exterior dining table with seating for eight (10). Outdoor lounge, perfect for pre-dinner drinks, or after dinner drinks, or just a quiet read in the afternoon.

Solid wood interior dining table with seating for eight (8).

Villa Gabriella offers a luxury experience for a large family or perhaps two families, but if you're a couple then please talk to us about a special rate, outside of high/peak season, for occupancy by just two people in one bedroom. You'll still enjoy the full villa, hot tub and heated pool to yourself of course!

SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS

Four spacious bedrooms, all ensuite & all with air conditioning, sleeping eight in total. One super-king, Two kings, one twin room. Two ‘master’ bedrooms. One on the ground floor with direct access to the terrace & one on the first floor with a private terrace comfortably furnished with chairs and lounger.

The option to add cots or fold-up beds for two babies or younger children.

Two ensuites have baths with showers over & two have walk-in showers. All are fully tiled & all have marble or granite vanity tops – a standard you should expect from any luxury private villa on Lefkada.

We can also make available Gabriella Cottage in the grounds of the villa. This is only ever let in conjunction with the main house. It offers a single bedroom with ensuite shower room, mini kitchen & sitting room. It's available at an additional rate in our pricing.

POOLSIDE YOU’LL FIND ...

A 35m2 heated (low season) infinity pool facing the panoramic view. The surrounding terrace has 6 loungers, 2 supersized beanbags & a shaded wooden pergola with exterior lounge furniture. Poolside shower room & toilet. In the trees there's a six seater hot tub, also with amazing views.

IN THE GROUNDS

The villa is nestled in the forest on the hillside above the seafront town of Nidri offering a uniquely private location, complete tranquility & the breathtaking panoramic view across numerous Ionian islands to the Greek mainland. Enter through remote-operated gates onto a spacious drive accommodating multiple cars. The villa is mobility friendly with large rooms, wide doors & a ground floor bedroom & a path down to the pool terrace. The gardens change with the seasons but incorporate wild-flowers, olive & citrus trees & are screened by mature pines & cypress.

EXPERIENCE A LUXURY PRIVATE VILLA ON LEFKADA

Tucked away in the forest above Nidri harbour we have created a wonderful luxury, private retreat with extraordinary panoramic views. Magnificent, star gazing is possible given the near total absence of light pollution. Our heated pool makes swimming during every week of the season comfortable with a pool temperature of 24-25C whilst our investment in a 22-panel solar array means we produce all our own electricity making your heated-pool, air-conditioned stay both luxurious and carbon-neutral.

Our luxury starts with a simple self-check in but then extends to:

A selection of wines, beers & soft drinks to ensure you’re free to relax immediately with cold drinks. We can also arrange a full food shop for you if you wish. Plus we provide salt, pepper, olive oil, tea, coffee & sugar.

Comfortable beds & luxury linens.

Luxurious bathrooms & showers supported by a whole-house pump & softened water

High class furnishings that blend the modern with selected antiques & personally curated artwork from around the world create a unique feel to each room – far away from identikit hotels or IKEA furnished villas.

Books & games, DVDs, Bluetooth/Airplay speakers, a full TV service including international channels, WiFi access throughout the house & on the pool terrace.

Amenities to cook as little or as much as you want in a fully equipped kitchen, or on a large BBQ and using a sizeable herb garden.

Response from the owner Dear Zoe Thanks so much for the lovely review - we’re so glad you fell in love with Villa Gabriella and that view! It never tires does it! We’ll be doing some heavy rolling of the road in spring 2020 so that will make it a smoother ride up. Thanks again for your kind words about the villa and of course about our fabulous hosts - the lovely Jon & Gill. We’d very much hope to welcome you back to Villa Gabriella in the future.

Response from the owner Thanks for your lovely review. We're so glad you enjoyed Villa Gabriella. It's always a challenge to convey the stunning location of the villa through photographs - not to mention the breathtaking views. We're so glad you were able to relax and enjoy all the wonders of the beautiful island of Lefkada. And thanks for the lovely feedback on Jon & Gill - they work so hard to ensure every gust has a wonderful stay. We are due a little road maintenance in spring 2020 (every second year) which will smooth out the worst of the bumps and make the final access easier so perhaps a return trip to continue your relaxing will be even smoother next year! Thanks again. Joanna & Alan Owners

This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on all reviews.

Response from the owner Thanks for your review of Villa Gabriella and we're delighted you enjoyed the stay. We understand the challenges of toddlers in the context of the villa - as you'll have appreciated gating all the various ways around the grounds would be absolutely impossible. I think you're referring to the road to the villa rather than our drive. Like a great many villas on Greek islands, especially those as private and secluded as Villa Gabriella and with such breathtaking views, access is via an unmade road - in our case about 600m long. We do provide advance information, including a video, on how to best tackle the road which is always a bit bumpy. But we've never yet met anyone who really needed a 4x4 to access the villa - it's just a question of taking it smoothly and steadily at about 15-20 km/h in first gear.
