Blue Caves Villas - Exceptional Villas with Private Pools Direct Access to the Sea

"We have just returned from a week’s holiday in Villa Harmonia at Blue Caves Villas on Zakynthos and what a wonderful holiday we’ve had. From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and nothing was too much trouble. The villa exceeded our expectations in every way. It was spotlessly clean, the beds were incredibly comfortable, the kitchen was small but modern with two coffee machines; a Nespresso with pods supplied and a filter coffee machines with ground coffee provided and a milk frother too. There were plenty of pots, pans and crockery should you want to cater for yourself. Outside, the views were stunning; from the terrace where there was a huge table and comfy chairs and the pool area below from the sun loungers and the infinity saltwater pool. That all said, the terrace and pool area was nicely secluded and relatively private to the other villas. On site there is a large chess set, an outside gym area and access to the cliffs and ultimately, the sea. This is via a steep path which, on a windy day, felt a little exposed as it wound down the cliffs. The sea is the bluest I have ever seen and so clear and there is access to the blue caves here too, hence the name. Although the site is secluded up on the cliffs, it is only a short drive (10 minutes max) to Agios Nikolaos where there is a good choice of (some excellent) restaurants, little gift shops and small supermarkets. Monika was great with all the admin side of things and was very quick to answer any queries by email. Giorgos was on site and was the most generous and friendly host. He was away when we arrived and Antonis and his brother welcomed us instead. Nothing was too much trouble for Giorgos who helped us book a boat trip, gave us wine from his own winemaking cellar and gave us a bottle of his olive oil to bring home. We rarely say we will return to the same villa but I think we will definitely make an exception for Villa Harmonia."
