With origins dating from 1803, this delightful estate of 3 cottages is steeped in history and is just 200m from Fontana’s tavernas and mini-market
Staying on the delightful Giatros estate is like stepping back into the Paxos of the past – with modern facilities. Surrounded by olive groves and mature landscaped gardens, the property was once a grand, fortified stone house dating back to the beginning of the 19th century when the Venetians occupied the Ionian Islands. The main house was constructed in 1803 at a time when the Paxiot people built their houses inland in order to protect themselves from the pirates on the coast. The sensitively restored estate is made up of three charming cottages offering a traditional and authentic Paxiot stay. The estate can accommodate 11 + 3 guests (see our VILLA DETAILS for the individual house layouts). Each house has its own private outdoor area plus a shared swimming pool and BBQ area with an exceptional, well equipped open plan outdoor kitchen / dining area. Fontana is just 200m away with it 2 tavernas, mini-market and tennis court with Magazia 800m from the houses. Kaki Lagada beach is 1.2km away, Loggos 3km, Gaios 4km and Lakka 5km. We love the charm, setting and space of Giatros. It is the perfect setting for families holidaying together or multi-generational families and we are so pleased to be able to offer it to our guests.
