Villa Christina

Zakynthos


Clay-coloured studios amid flowering gardens teeming with birdsong are set in an idyllic olive grove near Zakynthos’ southwestern corner. The clean, pine-accented apartments of various sizes, with balconies and very basic kitchenettes, share barbecue areas and a sparkling pool. There's also a small shop. The sea is a few minutes' walk away.
