Magazia is a village right at the heart of the island, an important central location, linking Paxos, with roads leading from here to the ‘larger’ harbours of Loggos, Lakka and the capital Gaios. An ideal base to explore the whole island, and also an ideal place to enjoy traditional Paxos. Magazia is a place where tourism hasn’t taken its grip and the real Greece remains under the villages many olive groves. The village has two mini markets, a taverna, a small bar or kafenion and a bakery. There is little need to leave except for the beaches and the ‘cosmopolitan’ life of the harbours!

Athina, the owner of one of the village shops and the local bakery has built her villa on the edge of Magazia to enjoy the peace of village life but also the convenience for a family to enjoy all aspects of the island only a short drive away. The stunning sunsets over the spectacular western cliffs are just a short walk away.

Villa Athina’s grounds are considerable, the spacious sun terrace and pool are ideal for sun bathing, the shaded dining and BBQ area so conducive to al fresco living. There is a seductive hammock placed between two of the many surrounding olive trees that give the grounds so much natural shade. This outside space is lovingly landscaped and encircled by traditional stone walls ensuring absolute privacy.
