Relaxed island-style Cycladic villa with beautiful outdoor dining and living areas, overlooking the sea with private pool and close walking distance to the sea
Villa Serenissima is a charming Cycladic property with a clean, chic island style for guests looking for a relaxed holiday. From the villa and its large terrace and garden, the property has panoramic sea views looking right out over the islands of Paros, Naxos, Ios and Sikinos. It is located in a small group of three private villas each set within its own spacious grounds and within easy walking distance to the sea.
On the ground floor, there is an open-plan living area with dining area, and fully equipped kitchen. There are a series of glass doors leading from the living/dining area out to the spacious pool terrace. Furnishings are comfortable but simple in style.
On this ground floor level, there is one double/twin bedroom with its own en-suite bathroom with shower and a veranda that has direct access to the swimming pool terrace and garden.
From the living room level, a few steps lead up to a half-landing where there is a double bedroom and en-suite bathroom with shower. This room also has its own veranda with wonderful sea views and direct access via some steps down to the garden and pool terrace.
Continuing up the stairs to the third level, there is light and airy third bedroom which has an unusual configuration - there is a double bed and steps leading up to an area with two in-built single beds. This bedroom has its own-ensuite bathroom and veranda with beautiful views over the sea.
On the top level of the house is the fourth bedroom with double bed and its own en-suite bathroom. A spacious veranda leads out to a terrace with magnificent sea views with the islands of Paros, Naxos, Ios and Sikinos in the distance, and on clear days Santorini too.
The style of the decor is light and airy throughout with comfortable furnishings. The villa has air-conditioning in all bedrooms, SAT TV, CD player and WIFI. There is daily maid service and a cook can be provided at an extra cost.
The highlight of this property is the outdoor dining and living area which is really elegant and runs the entire width of the garden and is shaded by a pergola. There is a large dining table with in-built seating area with plenty of scatter cushions, a very elegant and comfortable living area and a very good sized barbecue at the far end. In front of this pergola, is the private swimming pool surrounded by a spacious sun terrace with loungers and umbrellas all overlooking the sea.
To the front of the property is a garden planted with many olive trees and from the garden, guests can walk down a quiet laneway to a secluded cove (approx 100m from the villa). Although the approach to the sea is rocky, it is a wonderful place for swimming at any time of the day or evening. A pathway takes you 200m further along the coast to a very nice, sandy beach that is organised with loungers, umbrellas and a very good beach bar/restaurant (approx a 5 min walk). In the opposite direction also at around 200m distance is a lovely, secluded beach without facilities accessible via a footpath and steps. There are also tavernas just 1.5kms distance in the nearby village of Soros just a few mins by car. For shops and more tavernas, the main town of the island (also called Antiparos) is just 10 mins away by car.
Antiparos is a beautiful, unspoiled, small and traditional island less than 1km from the island of Paros. It takes just 10 mins by ferry from Pounda in Paros to reach Antiparos and there are ferry crossings approx every 20 mins. The historic centre of the island is located around the Venetian castle of Antiparos which is connected to the harbour by the main shopping street of the town. The island has beautiful beaches – both sandy, as well as secluded rocky coves with the beaches of Soros, Apandima, Sostis and Faneromeni being amongst the best.
For relaxed summer living on a beautiful, unspoiled island, Villa Serenissima is ideal. It has its own private swimming pool, overlooking the sea with a path leading from the property down to a secluded cove for swimming. Just 5 mins walk away is an organised beach with beach bar and taverna. The town of Antiparos is about a 10 min drive away.
