About this property
Perched high on a Kefalonian hillside, Villa Nyx is a refined retreat designed with intimacy and seclusion in mind. From the moment you step inside, there's a sense of serene simplicity, soft, neutral tones, natural textures, and clean-lined interiors that flow effortlessly into the view beyond. Sliding glass walls draw back to reveal an endless horizon of sea and sky, where the Ionian glimmers in the sunlight and evenings feel suspended in time.
The open-plan layout is as practical as it is elegant. A sleek kitchen, complete with modern appliances and thoughtful details, opens onto a calm and uncluttered living space with a sofa perfectly placed to soak in the views. The bedroom offers a restful cocoon, with crisp linens and soothing tones that invite late mornings and slow starts.
Outside, the private pool appears to spill into the ocean below. From here, you can watch the light shift across the bay, sip something cool beneath the shaded pergola, or dine alfresco as the stars rise over the mountains. With no one overlooking, the terrace feels like your own private slice of the island.
Tucked into the peaceful village of Simotata, Villa Nyx is just a short drive from Lourdas and Trapezaki beaches, where golden sand and simple tavernas offer a taste of relaxed Greek life. It’s a place made for couples who want to press pause, slow down, and reconnect with nature, with each other, and with the easy rhythms of island time.
Villa Nyx is located in the quiet hillside village of Simotata, on the southern coast of Kefalonia. Known for its panoramic sea views and fragrant pine groves, this corner of the island is peaceful and picturesque, with winding roads that dip down to the shoreline and up into the mountains beyond.
Within 15 minutes’ drive, you’ll reach the inviting sands of Lourdas and Trapezaki beaches. Both are known for their calm, shallow waters and traditional tavernas where you can enjoy long, lazy lunches or simple sundowners with your feet in the sand. Nearby, a handful of mini-markets and bakeries provide your everyday essentials, while the vibrant capital, Argostoli, is just 17 km away and ideal for a day trip.
Kefalonia is rich with natural wonders and cultural charm. A short drive north takes you to the magical Melissani Cave, while the mountain village of Assos and the harbour town of Fiskardo offer postcard-worthy scenery and boutique spots to explore. This region is also dotted with hiking trails, secret coves, and scenic viewpoints that reward even the shortest of strolls. It’s an ideal base for discovering the island’s quieter side, while still being close enough to enjoy the best of what Kefalonia has to offer.
