A luxurious house on a private estate in Lefokastro, Pelion in Greece, an infinity pool with breathtaking panoramic views over a sparkling blue bay, a tranquil village setting. Just a two minute walk to the sandy cove below the villa. Private diving platform and sea-front yoga platform. Accommodation for up to 14 and luxurious interiors. Welcome to your own little piece of paradise. Five seater motorboat, kayaks and SUPs provided for your use in the summer months. This property is part of our holidays in Greece collection of unique and unusual places to stay.
In a commanding position at the head of the bay of Lefokastro on the Pelion Peninsula sits Dolphin`s Leap, a beautiful secluded estate which comprises a main house and a charming little annexe known as the Writer`s Retreat. Altogether, the property can sleep 14 people and it has everything a group of friends or families could possibly want for a restful holiday - a pool and terrace overlooking the bay and mountains, bedrooms with air-conditioning and sea views, a sandy beach just a moment away and a delightful village with a small selection of tavernas to relax in. The sandy beach is just 30m below the villa, with shallow water and is a two minute walk from the house, through the garden gate and onto a public path which leads directly down to the beach. Surrounded by olive trees and the natural flora of the Pelion forests, the house was built from local stone using local craftsmen and it blends naturally into the contours of the hillside. Watch dolphins frolicking in the cove, take a boat out on the water or just sit on the terrace with a chilled drink at sunset. Who could ask for more? Motor boat, kayaks and stand-up paddleboards provided.
Just 2 minutes from the estate is a small sandy beach which separates the house from the village. Isolated and peaceful this is the perfect place for a picnic or a dip. Beyond the beach is the village of Lefokastro where there are two tavernas and a beach bar.
