Villa Soumela
Welcome to your private holiday home in Lefkada. Villa Soumela is meticulously designed over three floors to provide an experience of pure comfort and effortless luxury.
The villa has a spacious, fully equipped kitchen where you can craft delicious meals. The open living area flows onto a shaded terrace, perfect for al fresco dining. For entertainment, a dedicated TV room awaits for cozy movie nights. The villa comfortably accommodates up to six guests in three bedrooms and three modern bathrooms, ensuring privacy and space for everyone.
We’ve anticipated your every need with practical luxuries like central air conditioning with individual controls, and a full laundry room with both a washing machine and dryer. One of the most unique features is the private garage, connected to the villa's lower level by a secure internal passage. This makes arrivals with luggage and groceries completely seamless.
Outside, your personal retreat continues. A brilliant blue private swimming pool is the centerpiece, surrounded by a deck for sunbathing. The true jewel, however, is access to Limonea, our private orchard across the road. Here, you can find a peaceful moment among the fragrant lemon and orange trees, with stunning views of the sea framed by vibrant Bougainvillea.
Your hosts, Chris and Sophia, are the proud owners of Villa Soumela. Having built and cherished this property, they are delighted to share it with visitors who appreciate the beauty of Lefkada and the tranquility of the villa. Chris and Sophia’s primary goal is to make you feel completely at home from the moment you arrive. They believe a truly memorable vacation is built on comfort, care, and a welcoming atmosphere. They have poured their hearts into creating a space that is not just a rental property, but a true haven for relaxation and making memories. While they respect your privacy, they are available to ensure you have an amazing experience. Whether you need a recommendation for a hidden beach, a great local taverna, or have a question about the villa, they are happy to assist. Their warm hospitality is centered on one simple idea: that you leave Villa Soumela feeling refreshed, recharged, and already dreaming of your next visit. Villa Soumela is nestled into the peaceful green hills of Nikiana, a location that offers the perfect balance of serene seclusion and convenient access to the best of Lefkada. The property’s elevated position grants it spectacular views on the island—an uninterrupted panorama of the shimmering Ionian Sea that provides a new masterpiece every hour. Your terrace becomes a private viewpoint for the ever-changing display: watch a magnificent sunrise, spend the afternoon observing sailboats gracefully gliding across the azure waters, and end the evening as the sky blushes with the subtle red hues of sunset. Despite its tranquil feel, you are never far from the island's vibrant life. The charming waterfronts of Lefkada town and the bustling harbor of Nydria are just a short, scenic drive away.
For a quick swim or a cocktail by the sea, the nearest beach bar is a mere 1.7km from your doorstep. The villa is also conveniently located just 40 minutes from Aktio Airport, making your journey to it swift and simple. This is a neighborhood where you can truly disconnect, yet have the heart of Lefkada within easy reach.
The villa is air-conditioned and features 3 bathrooms and space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a microwave.
