The builders of Villa Kalithea are well known for their love of traditional architecture and their sensitivity to the Paxiot landscape. This attractive villa is enhanced by a circular tower, which contains the light and airy bedrooms. There are a number of olive trees around the property plus a variety of shrubs and plants.
The villa's position takes advantage of some of best views on Paxos – a landscape of rolling olive groves, the west coast cliffs and the sea.
Gaios is five minutes’ drive away, as is the nearest beach, and there are some marvellous walks in the surrounding area.
Villas Kalithea and Asteri are positioned on the same hillside and whilst maintaining independence and privacy, they can be rented together to provide a spacious venue for an extended family gathering or a group of friends.
In Greece, a tourist tax may apply at your accommodation which will be payable locally, in cash, during the course of your holiday. Please use the link to view details specific to your accommodation. View tourist tax rates here.

Overall the quality of the holiday was excellent. The last minute change to the return journey was handled extremely well. I judge a Company on how it handles problems and you handled the bad weather issue exceptionally well. I will definitely recommend you to friends.
Fantastic service from the Simpson’s team from enquiry onwards. They couldn’t do more! The property itself was amazing and of an exceptional quality. Keep it up Simpson - we will be booking again!
Our 4th time on Paxos with Simpsons. As ever, the service form all at the airport, Corfu port and on Paxos was excellent with made the whole travel process as stress free as possible. The outside space of this villa is great whether enjoying an early evening drink or a leisurely dinner looking out over olive tress to the Ionian Sea. There are plenty of lovely tavernas with a short drive and a bakery which is walkable if not too hot. We are already looking forward to next year
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful and well-located villa. The accommodation is very comfortable and the outside space is fantastic too. It has a fabulous pool with views of the olive groves and sea in the distance. There is a shallow end to the pool which is great for small children, as long as supervised. The patio makes a perfect spot for evening dinners and watching the sunset. The journey time to the local bakery and supermarket in Magazia is only 10 minutes by car. The service we had from our Simpson rep was also faultless.
We had a wonderful experience with Simpson Travel. The villa was stunning, everything was arranged beautifully for us and our rep Chris was extremely helpful. I found the company through a personal recommendation and will be strongly recommending to others now!
A lovely holiday at Villa Kalithea - big thanks to Chris, our Simpson concierge, who kindly supplied laminated maps of excellent walks, recommended great places to eat and was on hand to sort out one or two minor problems. Paxos is beautiful, quiet and welcoming and we had a completely relaxing time. Simpson is a friendly, professional and efficient travel company with great staff and attitude to getting being in the background if needed. Thanks to all concerned.
As usual, Simpson Travel were amazing in the care and quality of service. We had to alter our day of arrival, and one phone was made with an immediate change of date. We would always recommend Simpson to anyone wanting quality of accommodation at some amazing destinations.
The loveliest villa we have been to in Greece - so comfortable, great location, the BEST pool, and all surrounded by olive trees, thyme and lavender. A gprgesou week in beautiful Paxos, we even enjoyed the power cut during the thunderstorm. Sure we'll be back.
We have had the most glorious week on the island. Have completely fallen in love with this villa and imagined it our own, tending and watering the plants!
What a wonderful villa! We love everything about it and must say it’s the best we’ve stayed in Greece. This is our third visit to Paxos, the first was over 15 years ago! It remains very beautiful and non-touristy, very relaxing, quite sophisticated but typically Greek. The locals in the villas are very welcoming especially if you visit their tavernas or shop most than once. Thanks to Leona and Stuart for making our stay here special…we shall be back.
Another lovely holiday with Simpson Travel. This was our third time in Paxos and it still remains as beautiful and unspoilt as ever. Villa Kalithea was one of the best we have stayed in. We will be back!
Oh what a difference it makes to receive and experience true customer care! Many companies say they do this (but in reality don’t) but Simpson truly delivers! They go out of their way to ensure you are looked after, made to feel special and listened to. We just loved villa Kalithea, the location in Paxos and all the transport arrangements were perfect. Special thanks to Leona and Stuart who exude enthusiasm, great values and go the extra mile. Thank you to the Simpson team!
Yet again Simpson Travel delivered everything it said it would. The Corfu airport reps and those on Paxos we encountered were absolutely brilliant. We aim to return – obviously with Simpson Travel!
A lovely week in Paxos in this beautiful peaceful villa and many an hour spent sitting poolside looking out to sea. We enjoyed the small bars on the water’s edge at the far end of Loggos. Overall a very relaxing week and everything made so easy and straightforward by Simpson Travel.
Although it is only our second visit to Kalithea, it is about our 12th visit to Paxos over the last 20 years. The villa is perfectly situated and well appointed. The island still holds the same charm as it did on our first visit. It’s interesting to watch Magazia turning into a lively centre with a wonderful bakery and some promising new tavernas. Many thanks to Leona and the owners of the villa for all their help and warm welcome.
This was our sixth holiday with Simpson Travel and our next one is already booked. We would find it very difficult to go on holiday with any other company as we have been spoilt and we are now hooked!
Kalithea in Paxos was as described by Simpson Travel – being very quiet and private, yet within walking distance to a good taverna, giving good local food. A bakery and supermarket are nearby. The flight and boat transfer were timed to perfection with little waiting times, the hire car in Paxos was waiting for our arrival, all planned with the usual Simpson expertise. The Rou Estate for our second week was again all planned well, the road to it was meandering and in parts rough but the destination was superb, being high up and looking across to Albania, watching cruise ships glide across the sea. The accommodation wanted for nothing and we enjoyed our peaceful stay. Thanks very much.
We enjoyed a wonderful week at Kalithea which is perfectly located to reach all parts of the island. The beautiful outlook, peace and quiet and general calmness sitting looking out at the mesmerising view. We managed to tear ourselves away to visit several beaches and we really enjoyed Levrechio beach and taverna. Thank you, Simpson Travel. It was also nice to meet the villa owners who were very helpful. A great holiday with lovely weather.
Villa Kalithea is a gem of a villa: beautifully located atop the central spine of the island and conveniently situated close to Gaios and Loggos. Its advantages include excellent privacy, wonderful views, all day sunshine, a good house layout and very nice pool and sitting out/sunbathing areas. As one writer of a review said in the guest book, this is the best villa on the island and we would not disagree with that.
Kalithea has been one of the nicest villas we have stayed in. Well equipped, beautiful setting, great pool and wonderful to have ice and water. Steph has been amazing, so helpful, nothing has been too much trouble, she's very informative and enthusiastic.
This was our second visit to Paxos, the first nine years ago. Our expectations were not disappointed. We love the Greek islands anyway, lovely people, scenery, atmosphere. The food has improved over the years and there are now some exceptional dining places. Gaios and Lakka are much busier with 'boaty' people and day trippers from Corfu (can't blame them). There are some excellent bars in Loggos too and the Greek music on Thursday nights is good fun. Although we could have eaten/cooked in the villa in the evenings, there were only two of and more fun to eat out in different places. The villa was very well equipped and maintained and the Simpson Travel team were extremely helpful and always friendly and available. It was a lovely week, thank you.
This is our third holiday with Simpson Travel and as always, a wonderful experience with standards of service and villas second to none. We always thoroughly enjoy ourselves, knowing that all the details are taken care of and if we need any help it is always there.
Our second visit to Paxos, the first being nine years ago. The villa is excellent and very well appointed and well looked after – thank you Simpson Travel. Steph, our resort representative, has been brilliant and helpful, not that we've had any emergencies. Thank you Simpson, it's been great!
Our choice of Greek properties is as diverse as the islands themselves, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal. To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.
* For further clarification on Facilities and Amenities, please view the 'Details' tab for each property or speak to one of our experienced sales consultants.
Barely eight miles from tip to tail, Paxos is pint-sized perfection. The only way to get here is by boat from Corfu, which rules out mass development and makes room for a true luxury villa holiday experience. Beloved by the boating crowd, there's a definite buzz in the main summer months and an excellent choice of restaurants that cater for visiting flotilla.
There are few better ways of relaxing than on a luxury holiday in Paxos, where days fill up beautifully with sunbathing, swimming, snorkelling and dining in style, the sea just metres from your table. Amble through ancient olive groves and you’ll catch glimpses of startlingly turquoise bays, the dramatic west-coast cliffs or the Epiros Mountains. In spring, there’s also a haze of purple honesty, wild irises and lilies and a sky that’s alive with birdlife, from hawks to skylarks.
Complete the picture with a stay in one of our handpicked luxury villas or our unique Adult Only Simpson Hotels and make the most of this peaceful island.
