Villa Taygeta

Villa Taygeta is the prescription pad for stressed out, style-conscious parents in search of an indulgent, child-friendly retreat. More akin to your very own boutique hotel than self-catering rental, the villa comes with an array of optional extras all designed to ensure a really relaxing, family break.

Designed in traditional Cycladic style, this ‘sugar cube’ villa is sure to impress. Outside the property is set in landscaped gardens with one of the coolest pool set ups we’ve seen…. Teak mattress topped sunbeds ‘float’ within the sea-facing infinity pool whilst the bubbling jacuzzi offers the perfect spot for an evening tipple PTBD (post toddler bedtime). Yogi’s have a custom-built deck for their sun salutations (private lessons can be arranged on request) and there’s plenty of space for lazy outdoor dining and afternoon naps (we recommend nabbing the hammock). Inside the villa’s a lesson in bohemian luxury. Pared back interiors with a chic, island inspired colour palette create a light and welcoming space whilst the thoughtful supply of baby gear and toddler-friendly extras ensure families feel right at home.

A solid ten the villa doesn't disappoint on location either. Looking out over the Ionian ocean with views stretching as far as Kefalonia, the villa feels perfectly private yet but is wonderfully accessible with the small but bustling port of Agios Nikolaos set just a short walk away which offers a fine selection of local tavernas, restaurants and shops. Plus, during low season guests have the opportunity to make use of the facilities at the ever popular Peligoni Club which is almost on the doorstep ( guests passes are available on request depending on the season).

All in all Villa Taygeta is ideal for parents looking to take the stress out of self catering and unwind in their very own slice of holiday heaven.

Active guests have use of an in-house gym complete with weights, cross trainer and suspension training equipment plus there’s a boules court and elegant yoga deck.

Little ones are well catered for as on top of the in-house baby/toddler gear there’s a thoughtfully equipped playroom which is a great space for little ones looking to escape the midday sun.

As mentioned the outdoor space is the villas real crowning glory. From the impressive infinity pool, sprawling terraces, summer kitchen, covered dining area, indulgent jacuzzi and fragrant planters it’s bound to prove hard a very hard place to leave!
