This lovely villa is located in the historical area of Kastelli, the higher area of town which was established as a safe haven during the period when pirates used to raid the island. The bars and restaurants are just down the hill but far enough away from this residential area to allow a peaceful stay. The walk down to the town where the shops, restaurants and town beaches are located takes about 5 minutes while the return trip takes about 5 to 10 minutes and is mostly a gradual incline apart from one steeper section. The island itself is blessed with an abundance of pine trees and is mostly motor vehicle free having a policy which allows only commercial traffic and a handful of taxis plus motorcycles. Motorcycles and bicycles are available for rent. There are various beaches on the island to suit all tastes. There are 2 museums, the historical boat-yard which dates back 2,000 years and a plethora of mansions and natural phenomena on the island. The mainland is a short trip away.
