Noiya - Eight Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 16 | Villa in Ponti Agiou Petrou
8 Bedroom Villa in Evgiros, Ponti Agiou Petrou
An extraordinarily panoramic, architect-designed, cliff-top villa with a pair of pools, a basketball court and sunsets to take the breath away.
Ensconced in the fragrant, emerald green pine woods of Lefkada's southwestern promontory, Noiya occupies a panoramic position that has few rivals. Down below are two of the island's most iconic beaches, and the charming seafront village of Vassiliki is close by, but once settled in, you may feel little inclination to leave behind the inspiring contemporary design, the luxurious touches, attentive service and the splendid array of amenities that make Noiya such a joy to experience.
As featured on Netflix’s reality competition series, Surviving Paradise.
Inside: accommodation at Noiya is spread over four floors and three independent guest rooms in the grounds.
The front door opens onto a mezzanine gallery overlooking a fabulously voluminous open-concept communal space on the ground floor. The double-height ceilings of the central atrium make for an extremely airy and tranquil atmosphere, the eye-catching geometric design and layout create ever-changing perspectives, and banks of oversized picture windows offer seemingly endless variations on the breathtaking sea views. Alternating white and exposed stone walls bring yet more character, while slate-grey flooring and bespoke wooden cabinetry combine elegantly with black metal fixtures and fittings.
The same aesthetics, materials and colour palette described above are to be found throughout the property and even outside, where wood cladding combines to great effect with white-painted walls, glass and locally quarried stone.
Steps lead down from the gallery into the epicentre of Noiya, a bespoke contemporary kitchen with a sleek black island and breakfast bar. From here the space flows towards a dining area and on to a super-panoramic living area, furnished with a large L-shaped sofa and a chaise-longue looking out to sea.
A series of glass doors open out from this sociable space onto a wonderful shaded sea-view terrace that runs along the entire façade of the property. A guest WC completes the accommodation on the ground floor.
Back on the mezzanine gallery, an open corridor sweeps along to the first of Noiya’s eight bedrooms, a sea-view double with in-room, walk-in shower, a sink and an en-suite WC. Sliding glass doors open out onto a panoramic terrace.
Returning once more to the gallery, a pair of staircases lead up to two sleeping wings - east and west - on either side of the house:
• the east wing is home to one double and one double-twin bedroom, both of which have en-suite shower rooms, incredible sea views and balconies overlooking the terraces, the gardens, the pools and the sea;
• the west wing is arranged over two levels. On the first floor is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room and a shady, view-filled terrace, while on the second is a double-twin, also with en-suite shower room. Both of these bedrooms boast impressive corner windows that have been designed to maximise the sea views.
A path leads down below the pool to the three independent guest rooms, which are hidden away in the fragrant pine woods of the extensive grounds. Camouflaged by the mirrored glass walls that reflect the surrounding trees, they offer a contemporary take on a traditional log cabin, discreetly immersed in their natural habitat but finished and furnished with luxury in mind. One hosts a generous double bedroom, the other two double-twin bedrooms. All three have decked terraces, en-suite showers rooms, and breathtaking views out through the greenery to the glistening blue sea below.
Outside: as mentioned above, the communal ground floor space opens out via a series of sliding glass doors onto a shady terrace running along the front of the house. Steps lead up and down from this outdoor hub to a variety of other terraces that fan out around the house and the grounds. The views over the surrounding pine woods and the sparkling sea down below are extraordinary from all angles.
Immediately outside the kitchen is a covered outdoor dining area, and, following the contours of the ground floor layout, there are various spots furnished for sitting and relaxing.
Steps from the outdoor dining area lead up to the terrace accessed from the mezzanine level bedroom. This in turn connects to a table tennis area and, up a few more steps, to a full-sized basketball court, a dream for sports enthusiasts.
A few metres from the al fresco dining area, meanwhile, is the first of the two magnificent pools, a 16m-long infinity pool designed for those who wish to do some proper swimming. Two sunbathing areas, including a decked area suspended over the hillside, flank the long sides of the pool, while to the far end is a convivial, comfortably-cushioned sunken sitting area that's perfect for the sunset aperitif ritual.
Steps lead down from the first pool to the second, a curvaceous infinity affair with a beach-effect shallow end that will be enjoyed by the younger members of your group and those who love to indulge in more relaxed watery pleasures. Below the pool is a four-person shower room and WC.
Looking over the lower pool is another al fresco dining area and a fabulous outdoor kitchen under a shady pergola. Equipped with a pizza oven, a large barbecue, a bar, work surfaces, fridges, an ice machine and a dishwasher, it is perfect for both professional chefs and keen amateurs.
Last but not least, just beyond the pools to the right of the property is an Olympic-sized (3x5m) trampoline awaiting the more athletic types within your party.
Noiya features two fantastic pools, both of which have infinity edges. There is a drop from the infinity edges so we recommend children are supervised at all times. Please refer to our general safety page if you would like more information about infinity pools.
Please note that the grounds of Noiya are spread over several different levels, connected by steps, so it might be unsuitable for people with mobility problems. There are also some drops between the various terraces, so younger children should be supervised by an adult at all times when exploring the property.
Noiya is located on the rural road leading to Porto Katsiki beach. Depending on the direction of the wind, traffic noise may occasionally be audible in certain areas of the grounds.
Noiya sits in a fabulous cliff-top position on the southwestern tip of Lefkada, about a 20-minute drive from the beach, shops, tavernas and water sports hotspot of Vassiliki.
Down below, a 5- and a 20-minute drive away respectively, are the idyllic sandy-pebbly beaches of Porto Katsiki and Egremni, two of the loveliest and most dramatically situated on Lefkada. The area is known for its towering chalky-white cliffs, sensational views and electric blue waters.
A selection of other beaches on the west coast can be reached within a 30-minute drive north, including those at Lagouna, Megali Petra and Avali.
The capital of Lefkada, Lefkada Town, with its vibrant summer buzz, its restaurants, bars and shops and its marina, is about an hour away.
Noiya is also well-placed for hiking in Lefkada's interior, where the mountains rise to over 1,100m. There is some truly beautiful scenery and a scattering of unspoilt villages where the way of life remains profoundly connected to the island's ancient traditions and customs.
Lefkada measures 35km from its northern tip to the dramatic white cliffs of Cape Lefkatas in the south and just 15km from east to west. It is, therefore, relatively easy to explore in a week (if you can pull yourselves away from the views and pools of Noiya). At its northern point the island is connected to mainland Greece by a floating bridge and, via frequent ferry services from the port of Nidri, to several of the other islands of the Ionian archipelago (including nearby Meganissi), making it eminently possible to travel further afield.
