Villa Alexandra - Villa with Private Pool. Close to the Beach.
Villa with 3 Bedrooms, Sleeps 5, Garden, Swimming Pool
Villa Alexandra is a modern villa set just 4 minutes flat walk from the sandy beach, and excellent tavernas and shops in the village of Almyrida. This villa represents excellent value for money and books up early. Set next to an olive grove on the corner plot of a small group of villas, despite its village location, Villa Alexandra has lovely views of The White Mountains and the olive clad hillsides that surround Almyrida.
The villa has been designed in order to maximise the outdoor living area, and therefore has terraces and balconies with a choice of sun or shade. In front of the villa is a pool terrace which has lovely sandy coloured non-slip crazy paving, sun-loungers and umbrellas. All around the pool terrace and the villa are a large number of traditional clay pots and flowerbeds that have been planted with conifers, roses, palms, purple solanum, and a mandarin tree.

The villa is a pretty pale yellow colour with white aluminium doors, windows and shutters. Under a covered archway, next to a flowerbed of mature roses, is the south facing front terrace which has a wooden bench, a table and 4 director’s chairs. This terrace leads around to the shady east side of the villa, which is covered by a pergola and has a sink and a large BBQ made from natural stone and brick. The BBQ terrace has a wooden table and bench, and is next to a mature fig tree.
The lovely Greek owners, Spiros and Christina, have furnished the villa throughout with matching furniture made from the same warm coloured wood as the built-in wardrobes, kitchen cupboards, bathroom cabinets, and doors. The bathroom and shower room are finished to a very high standard with beautiful pale terracotta and light peach tiles. All modern comforts have been provided for at Villa Alexandra including a TV, DVD and CD players, a dishwasher a washing machine, and air conditioning units in all the bedrooms and the living room. For the cooler nights at the start and end of the season there is a fireplace in the lounge, and the a/c units also double up as heaters. The water is heated by either solar panel or a back-up immersion heater.
