Villa Antikleia is in a quiet and secluded location in a pristine valley with a view that extends up to the sea. The wonderful sunset and lush vegetation accompanied with the relaxing sound of the lamps that can be enjoyed from the terrace surrounding the building as well as while swimming in the private pool. It is located in an estate of about 3 acres, which was once a vineyard and vegetables garden that was damaged by the construction of the villa and is now slowly re cultivated. Villa Antikleia is a maisonette. At the ground floor there is a cosy living room with openings and views to the pool terrace, a fully equipped open kitchen and a dining area. There is also a bedroom with double bed with openings to the pool and a full bathroom. On the first floor you will find the second bedroom with twin beds (that can be joined to create a big double bed), the second bathroom and a beautiful balcony with great sea view. Outdoors there is a sheltered gazebo with a comfortable lounge where you can relax while enjoying the sun diving in the Ionian Sea and painting the sky with wonderful colours. It also has an outdoor fully equipped BBQ.

In Greek mythology and the renowned Odyssey, Anticlea (Αντίκλεια in greek so it became Antikleia in ‘greeklish’) was the daughter of Autolycus and Amphithea and mother of Odysseus by Laërtes (or maybe Sisiphus..) She was also the grand-daughter of the trickster god Hermes (who was the father of her father). To us, the name Antikleia, echoes to our beloved aunt, who was baptised by that name. Her house was built just a few meters from where the villa stands today. She was unruly and alive, a vivid and fierce woman who enjoyed the freedom that the countryside offered and spent all her life in this territory, and her labour came from the earth, her land. At this area also was her precious vineyard, from which she took off, the wine of the year, a red delicious wine, and of course her vegetable garden. In the surrounding grazing land where grass was abundant, she used to have a goat, and her two sheep, from which she produced barrels of cheese, which was absolutely the best I have ever tasted. So, the reason that we called the villa after her, is a small tribute to honour her name and her memory. Welcome to Villa Antikleia!
