A lovely villa in a quiet area. The house had beautiful views and everything we needed. Lilly gave good advice and was an excellent representative of Simpson Travel."
The quietness was overwhelming! It was a joy to visit Lakka, Logos and Gaios for morning coffee and just sit and 'be' to watch people and boats come and go. All in all a good two weeks for a couple of 80+ senior citizens. Thanks to all the staff at..."
This was a lovely location and very quiet and private. The Villa is also equi-distance from the three main waterside towns each with their own characters. Arrangements and support at all stages of the holiday were very good."

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.
