Picturesque, verdant and fringed by turquoise seas, the Ionian island of Paxos may be small, but its charm is immense. It’s the kind of place that lingers in your heart - once visited, it is renowned to call you back again and again. The island’s three main villages (Gaios, Loggos and Lakka) each offer their own unique charm and for those seeking space, privacy, and a touch of luxury, a villa stay could be the ideal choice. Read our latest blog to discover your home-away-from-home to Paxos.
Despite its small size - just 7 miles long and 3 miles wide - the enchanting Ionian island of Paxos is a haven for beach lovers. You're never far from a 'spiantza,' as the locals call them, and each one offers a slice of unspoiled paradise. All bar one are of gleaming white pebbles, and the waters here are unlike anywhere else: a stunning translucent turquoise so clear you can see the seabed many feet below. Whether you're seeking lively, organised shores or secluded, hidden coves, Paxos has a perfect spot for you. From smooth pebble beaches and dramatic white cliffs to sheltered bays and lively beach bars, let us guide you to our favourite spots.

The saying "Life is about the journey, not the destination" often applies to self-help and mindfulness. However, after a 10-night Dodecanese island-hopping familiarisation trip, I can confidently say it's about both. My journey involved several ferries, and each boarding was filled with eager anticipation. I shared the decks with other tourists, locals laden with produce, and even a few canine companions, making for a vibrant microcosm of life sailing towards numerous island destinations.
