What a magnificent holiday in Paxos. It was our second visit, this time to The Artists House. Thank you, Simpsons, for your excellent service.

The Artist House is in the most beautiful location. Peaceful, relaxing with a view you cannot tire of. A 15 minute walk and Gaios with it's choice of fabulous restaurants/bars to choose from.

The last week of the summer season! A truly special house, a great location and walk into Gaios to enjoy a great choice of restaurants. We discovered the island and enjoyed swimming. A lovely holiday and would definitely come back.

Very charming villa with stunning views and excellent facilities. The location was perfect, very quiet but close enough to walk into Gaios for restaurants, bars and shopping. We were able to swim in the sea at the local beach attached to the Agali Hotel Paxos (formerly Paxos Beach Hotel) which was lovely.

We have had a wonderful stay in Paxos with friends and family to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary and my 65th birthday. The first week we rented Flora & The Artist house, and the second week we had all three. Each had their charm but the Artist's House was a wonderful villa for two people. We have had a ball!

Must be our 10th visit to the Artist's House. We love it here. Dining on the terrace here with the magnificent view is a pleasure. Word is obviously spreading about wonderful Paxos - we have never seen it so busy! Thanks to Chris at Simpson Travel for looking after us. We have already booked for next year!

We're back! Another lovely fortnight on Paxos. Restaurants pretty much all open, but not too crowded. A few cloudy days, but to be expected at this time of year. Some amazing upgrades at Artist's House - the Wifi and the Smart TV both particularly welcome! We hired bikes in Gaios again, and had a lovely day touring the island - hills no problem with e-bikes!

This was our second visit to The Artist's House, and it was such a delight to find that this time we had WiFi and a smart TV! The situation is especially good, as it is away from the town and quiet, but just a 15-minute walk to a host of shops, cafes and tavernas. Lovely walks in every direction, in fact; to Mongonissi with views down onto pretty little coves, but also up the hill into some gorgeous hamlets. The people on Paxos are amazing, and especially the Simpson reps and our wonderful cleaner who has made me try to learn Greek!

Like so many people before us, we fell for the charms of Paxos, and The Artist’s House was the perfect location for us. Spectacular views, complete privacy and lovely walks that helped us avoid piling on the pounds. The villa had everything we needed, and we enjoyed relaxing there as much as being out and about. While there, we booked again for next year!

Our fifth Simpson adventure and our fifth visit to Paxos. Great little villa with wonderful views. We shall miss it.

This was our first experience using Simpson Travel. Wow, what a fantastic experience. Seamless, from initial booking, on going updates, check in, meet and greets, transfers, car hire and availability to assist whilst on holiday. Will definitely use Simpson Travel again. The Artists House was just perfect for our requirements and just as described. So private with lovely villa with absolutely stunning views.

It was our first time using a company to organise a holiday - normally we like to do it ourselves - and Simpsons were fabulous. The ease of going from airport to port, picking up a car, getting tickets etc - was fantastic. Saved a lot of stress and headache for us. The Artists House was also amazing - possibly one of the best views on the island and to have such privacy, and a villa just for two - with a pool and close access to the beach - was more than we could have dreamed for.

The Artist’s House is a true gem! A superb setting overlooking the entrance to a beautiful buzzy harbour provided huge entertainment as luxury yachts came and went. The proximity to the sea and to Gaios made it the perfect setting for a relaxed escape with convenient walking distance access to tavernas and bars but far way to escape the noise when you clamour for peace and quiet. No Wi-Fi so make sure you have a decent data allowance- but perfect if you want to be off grid.

So good to be back after a two year gap. I think this is our 8th or 9th visit to this unique villa. Thank you Frances for looking after us again.

The Artist's House is everything you could wish for, what a view! Another Simpsons gem. Having been with Simpson for many years, this has got to be the best.

First time with Simpson Travel and so glad we found you! A blissful escape for two in late August to The Artist’s House. Sun and seclusion in a spotless villa with an amazing infinity pool and unforgettable views day and night. Short walk to pretty little bays for quiet morning swims, only 20-min walk to the lovely port town of Gaios where there are plenty of excellent dining options. We drove to many other gorgeous beaches, pretty Loggos (don’t miss the taverna on Levrechio for a long lazy lunch) and Erimitis for sunset views. Such a beautiful island and Simpson made it all easy. Big thanks especially to Frances who was quick to respond, friendly and helpful with our queries. All felt safe and well handled in a time of Covid.

We booked with Simpson for a second time and yet again they strived to exceed expectations. Our rep, Stuart, was knowledgeable, friendly and understanding re your needs from him as a rep. He was available if needed and always had a friendly word if he saw you out in resort. Our accommodation was superb in a wonderful location for a non-car user. Simpson were very accurate and delivered re product knowledge and customer requirements on booking. A wonderful holiday again – cannot wait for next year so will be looking again.

Our eighth visit to The Artist’s House. Always perfect. We go out less and less because we love being at the villa so much. We have already booked for the next two years – would not want to go anywhere else.

The Artist’s House is the best villa we have ever stayed in. Wonderful pool and a fantastic view from the terrace. We had booked two weeks, but we could have done three.

The Artist’s House is a lovely villa with great views! We explored the island and loved Mongonissi beach. We hired a RIB for three days and explored Anti Paxos – it is so lovely and so worth doing with its crystal blue waters and white sand. The Erimitis restaurant is a must – a wonderful location and great sunset views! Thank you, Simpson Travel, once again.

What a great villa and what a great view – there was always something happening out there! We had mixed weather with no two days the same! The highlight was watching a thunderstorm and seeing lightning over Corfu. There are lots of good places to eat and everyone was friendly and helpful! We hope that all visitors will enjoy spending time there as much as we did.

Although not our first trip to Paxos, it has been the first time we’ve stayed a week. The first thing to assimilate is although it’s small, the island packs a big punch. Following Ian Bleasdale’s walking map is a delight if you’re into that sort of thing, but it took us a day or so to get used to the short distances and to begin with, we missed a lot. Everything we have done, has worked. We walked into Gaios every morning for a spot of shopping, coffee and people watching. We had trips to Mongonissi (walked it one day), Erimitis at lunchtime and Monodendri beach. If you want a boat trip, we would recommend sorting this out early if you’re only staying a week. The great thing about The Artist’s House is the views, but also that you get morning, day and evening sunshine. You can’t help but enjoy this place. We’ll be back.

Wow, wow, wow! What an amazing villa and pool in such a stunning location. We have absolutely loved our time in Paxos and taken home some wonderful memories. Thank you Simpson Travel and David.

The villa was just perfect. We didn't want to leave! We had the most amazing time in Paxos! We took a boat from Paxos and went across to Anti Paxos and up to the caves. There are two main beaches in Anti-Paxos – choose the second one if coming from Paxos. Both Lakka and Loggos are worth visiting if you have time. We tried to balance our time at our gorgeous villa and pool while continuing to explore the island. Simpson Travel were fantastic – thank you David!

Our first time in Paxos and we think it's wonderful. The villa, the view and the pool are all wonderful and we have had a great time relaxing, sunbathing, swimming, reading and eating. People were friendly everywhere and the Simpson Travel staff were very helpful – thanks David for all your advice. As always one week has gone way too quickly – I'm sure we'll be back!

We love Simpson Travel, Paxos and The Artist's House. Its a real home from home and we will definitely return as we love it so much.

This was our first visit to Paxos, although we have travelled with Simpson Travel before. The Artist's House is a wonderful location and probably one of the best villas we have stayed in. It was centrally situated for walking to the village and local small bays, so it was not always necessary to use the car.

Our second time in Paxos but our first time to The Artist's House, and what a great house it is, probably the best we have stayed in. Thanks to Kate for all her help and to Simpson Travel in general, they have been great.

We have loved every minute of our stay at The Artist's House. Such a lovely place to spend our honeymoon. We have had lazy days by the pool and have also been out exploring.

Our honeymoon at The Artist's House in Paxos was absolutely perfect. A stunning villa in the most wonderful location. Never have we ever come home from a holiday so completely relaxed and chilled. The Simpson Travel representatives from the moment we arrived to the moment we left were just superb. Professional, not over the top, friendly and very knowledgeable. We will most definitely be back with Simpson Travel for our next relaxing break. Thank you for making our honeymoon just perfect!

This was our first visit to Paxos and what a lovely island. So laid back and really friendly people. The Artist's House is in such a lovely spot looking over the blue pool onto the ever-changing view of boats arriving and leaving the bay.
Mr Iveson

This was our second holiday with Simpson Travel, and we enjoyed it even more than last year. The only regret we have is that we should have booked for two weeks rather than one! Needless to say, we will not make the same mistake next year! Thank you for an unforgettable holiday.

Everything went very smoothly, the staff were friendly and helpful. The property we had, The Artist's House on Paxos, was as lovely as we were expecting from the attractive photos on the website. It was a pleasant easy walk to Gaios, which had all we needed and was lively without being noisy. Perfect! Not easy to find a villa for two with a large terrace and infinity pool and a beautiful view without the drawback of an uphill climb to enjoy it (only a few steps).
