Om overnatningsstedet

Dejlig landvilla, privat pool, tæt på havet, fredelig Skinaria, Zante.

Spiti Martini ligger i en dejlig del af Skinaria i North Zante omgivet af oliven, fyrretræer, cypresse og en fantastisk udsigt. Huset er godt beliggende med udsigt over havet fra svømmehallen og alligevel langt fra den travle kystvej. En fantastisk helt privat 10 x 5 meter stor pool, pergola til skygge. Martini er fredelig med en åben pejs. Terracotta gulve og hvidvaskmure. Tre store soveværelser, højt bjælkelofter, to brusebadeværelser, et med eget bad, arrangeret som 1 dobbelt og 2 tvillinger (et på mezzaninplan ovenpå) Køkkenet er kompakt og fuldt udstyret med alle nødvendige faciliteter. Vaskemaskine, gas-grill og stort køleskab med drikkevarer. Fryser. Hyggelige liggestole ved poolen. Franske vinduer åbner mod en stor privat indhegnet have og bjergomgivet ejendom på to hektar og terrasser brolagt med håndlavede fliser og rigelig udeservering. Al fresco-spisning er populær blandt vores gæster. Gamle oliven til skygge. En stille bugt under huset er inden for 5 minutter, og en lang strandstring / sand / småsten med parasoller og taverna 8 minutter væk.
WIFI og 4g signal stærkt.

Beskrivelse: Villaens indvendige vægge er hvidkalkede med antikke almindelige terracotta gulvfliser og håndknyttede tæpper. Badeværelserne er fuldt flisebelagt med bjælkelofter. Komfortable bløde sofaer, masser af siddepladser både indvendigt og udvendigt. Sengene er solid håndlavet fyrretræ lavet af vores lokale tømrer Georgos, fuldt udstyrede fyrerskabe håndlavet. Alle vinduer har skodder. Indvendige døre er grøn fyr med Norfolk-låse. Ekskluderede og private siddepladser omkring swimmingpoolens nye pergola til skygge. Havet ligger 3 km i bil. Stille afsondrede bugter eller større strande med mere at tilbyde er tæt på. Bådudlejning er tilgængelig fra fiskerlandsbyen nedenfor huset. Mest madlavning foregår udenfor, der er en gasbbq, og et sekund drikker køleskab og en ovn i et lille sommerhus i haven. Dejlige vandreture i de omkringliggende bakker. Vores gæstebog fortæller om familier og par, der er vendt tilbage til Martini for at nyde husets venlige og fredelige natur. den bageste haveterrasse er indhegnet og privat

I nærheden: De smukke traditionelle græske landsbyer Ano Volimes og Volimes ligger 5 minutters kørsel væk. Her kan du købe friskbagt brød, frugt, grøntsager, æg, hjemmelavet honning og de fleste andre ting, du muligvis har brug for. Vi har en liste over gæster i huset af taverner, vi kan lide, opdateret af os hver forår. Den nordlige del af øen forbliver hovedsageligt uudviklet og har derfor bevaret en fornemmelse af fortiden, hvor tiden ikke betyder noget, og livet går i et afslappet tempo. Fremragende gang. Der er to små bugter lige under huset, hvor svømning i krystalvand er et alternativ til poolen. Tre klostre inden for en 30 minutters kørsel, et i en ødelagt tilstand, og når man går fra landsbyen gør lugten af vilde urter oplevelsen mindeværdig. Macherado-keramik er kun 20 minutters kørsel.
Daglige færger kører fra havnen i Saint Nicholas, 14 minutter væk, og dagsture til Kefalonia er mulige og sjove. Sejlklubben Peligoni ligger 9 minutter væk.

Generel information: Puljen er 10m x 5m x1. 5 m dyb og er omgivet af sin egen terrasse med et skyggefuldt område og liggestole. Det er privat og ikke overses. Vi leverer et bordtennisbord med flagermus. Mest underholdende og spisende foregår udenfor, hvor der er en gasbarbeque på bagterrassen og et stort skyggefuldt spiseplads. Dette er et dejligt fredeligt sted, hvor du kan slappe af og slukke.
Traditionelle bjerglandsbyer kan besøges inden for en radius af 15 km.
Selve Zakynthos by er et travlt, travlt sted med åbne pladser, en dejlig havn, fremragende shopping og spisning. Bilfærger dagligt til fastlandet.
Fra fred i Martini er det kun 40 minutters kørsel at besøge den største by.
Peligoni Club (sejlads, windsurfing og meget mere) er 9 min. Kørsel fra vores hus, og der kan være mulighed for al fresco frokost eller aftenmåltid der. Nogle af vores gæster vælger at deltage i klubben på ugentlig basis og endda sejle og windsurf der. (men ikke i august) EOT-licensnummer: 0428k10000459101 Fuldt godkendt til udlejning af 2020

This villa is a slice of heaven. It’s absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. The pool area is incredible but all the seating areas they have created are the perfect place to be. The location is fantastic but you do need a car. There are so many wonderful tavernas and restaurants nearby and the hosts recommended a couple of fabulous places that we enjoyed. Martin, Jane and their son guy are fantastic hosts. Really responsive and gave some useful tips and recommendations. Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday. We were a family of 4 travelling with 2 children aged 6 & 10.

Wonderful rustic retreat

Such a peaceful, authentic home in delightful grounds. Perfectly private yet within easy reach of so many beaches and tavernas as long as you’re happy to drive a few miles each day. Awesome pool and spaces to relax, with all the facilities we needed. We’d highly recommend hiring a boat for a day to enjoy some of the swim spots and beaches only accessible from the sea!

A well renovated traditional Greek cottage. Just beautiful. Calm, relaxing, beautiful outside spaces including a fab pool. Great for a family holiday or for escaping the world. Set in beautiful hills just a short drive to the beaches, tavernas and local villages. Captures the Greek Islands of old! Recommend to anyone. Great communication and information from the owners made the stay easy.

A rare gem

The location of Spiti Martini is wonderful, quiet and very private but within a ten minute drive of local shops and great restaurants. The house has rustic charm but with modern conveniences such as wi-fi, air conditioning etc. The pool is utterly beautiful with wonderful far reaching views. There is a lovely bbq terrace. Spiti Martini exceeded our expectations and we will most certainly be returning

Although it’s quite an old olive growers house we have continued to up date it to modern standards, without spoiling the unique character.

First rate experience!

Our experience staying at Spiti Marinii was a joy. The bed rooms and sitting room have air-conditioning which worked very well. The pool is great condition and was well maintained by a visiting poolman during our stay. The pool is in an elevated location and from there is a panoramic view over the sea. George the property manager was charming, helpful and speaks good English. Dealing with Martin and Jane was an absolute pleasure.

Fantastic house in a great location!

We had a wonderful time staying at Spiti Martini. The house worked very well for a family of 5, lots of areas in which to sit, sunbathe, chill, eat with sun and shade for all. We loved exploring the local beaches and places to visit. As the owners say the roads are small and steep, but we didn't have any problems. I'd recommend taking water shoes, not just if you want to jump off rocks but also for the pebbly beaches. An umbrella might be handy too. We had neither and loved it all! Fantastic house and location!

Thank you Sophie and John . We are of course pleased you enjoyed your stay in our house. We agree that we are lucky to have an acre garden to wander about in. Plus a few quiet places to sit and read ! Also we are pleased that even in busy August you found a cove or two to enjoy. The position of Spiti Martini out of earshot of the busy coast road means it’s a great place to re-charge after a day on the beach 🏖

Great location and lovely grounds

Great location and lovely grounds. Martin communicated very quickly when we had issues and Giorgios was very responsive. The villa needs aircon as it heats up during the day and the fans dare ineffective. The villa is very small. The bedrooms are a series of linked room so there is little privacy. It is fine for a small family but not for sharers in our view.

Thank you Ailsa for your review. We are sorry that you were not 100% happy with your stay . You can see from previous reviews that you are the first not to give us five stars. The August temperatures were extreme at 39 degrees . We have not known those this century in Northern Zakynthos. We are installing air conditioning this winter as we mentioned. Two acres of gardens , a lovely large pool and high ceilings in the house have meant that some families have returned two and even three times.

Our favourite holiday destination to date!

Thanks so much for such a wonderful stay at your stunning villa. We were blown away with how beautiful it was. The pictures really don’t do it justice! Everything we needed was there, the house and grounds were spotlessly clean and very tastefully decorated and the swimming pool was large, immaculate and provided hours of fun for the whole family! We so enjoyed exploring the breathtaking island, taking in many sights, friendly tavernas, boat trips and visiting several clear water, deserted beaches. Spiti Martini could not have been a more idyllic base in which to do it! We are already discussing our return visit and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this stunning villa and little piece of Heaven to all who would consider it!

A beautiful and idyllic villa perfect for a family holiday

Spiti Martini is a truly wonderful property offering everything needed for a relaxing family holiday. The decor is lovely, with a great sitting room and shared space including a well-equipped kitchen area. The bedroom layout is perfect for a family stay. The garden and outside space are the real gems of the villa, set in the hills and with a view over the coast from the pool, it is gorgeous. We really enjoyed the olive grove and the kids loved the large and well-maintained pool, looked after by Vangelis and Georgios who were very helpful. Our whole experience of Zakinthos was no doubt improved through having a great base to return to in the afternoons while the recommendations on local tavernas led to some great local dishes and friendly people. Dealing with our hosts Martin and Jane was a pleasure and I can not recommend this more thoroughly!

Peaceful

Spiti Martini is what you can describe as a cosy refurbished barn, set up in the hills with a sea view from the pool. It had all we needed for a wonderful peaceful holiday. We absolutely loved our stay. Well appointed for breakfasts and light lunch and plenty of wonderful restaurants to visit locally by car for suppers. Or a bbq for dinners. We took to the local restaurants as the evening option which there are lots to choose from with an array of price options. Our favourites were Micro Nisi, La Storia, Madrakia and Stinos. You can do boat hire at MN. We were a family of 4 (12 and 14)yo and 2 grandparents. Grandparents needed to sleep in the main en-suite due to steep stairs from the mezzanine floor to access the bathroom at night….children were in the twin and us on the mezzanine. The kitchen is quite small but perfectly adequate for our holiday. The outside area certainly more than made up for it. Martini boasts an amazing pool with so many different beautiful outdoor seating areas. Seeking sunshine / shade / views and peace. The host Martin and George the manager were great. Communication 5* Would highly recommend!

The Real Zakynthos

We spent 5 wonderful days at Spiti Martini which felt more like "the real Zakynthos". We were looking for a place that was out of the main hustle and bustle of Zante and we were so pleased as we climbed the mountains on the way north. After winding our way through the hills we arrived to find a wonderful charming property. The landscaping was lovely, and the house felt like it had been harmoniously built with the trees and shrubs of the area. The house was a perfect size for our family of four and a mix of traditional and modern. The AC kept us cool on warm nights, but there is also a lovely breeze that passes through at night. We loved cooling off in the beautiful pool after a day exploring the island/beaches. We took full advantage of the grill to make some meals we ate al fresco under the flowering vines, and other nights took advantage of many of the nearby restaurants. Martin and Jane were excellent hosts. They were so communicative prior to our arrival even sending us a map, directions, and lots of suggestions in the mail. They answered all our questions and you can tell how much they love their home away from home from the care they have taken to maintain it. We would recommend this to anyone looking for the quieter side of Zakynthos where you will see amazing views, have access to lots of beaches, access many of the smaller local villages selling crafts & food, and at the end of the day come home to an authentic well loved home.

What a gem!

Absolutely loved our stay at Martin and Jane's other home. The gardens are magical and the photos don't do them justice, the pool was great - definitely big enough for all of us (6 inc 4 children from 5-14 years). Only slight niggle was it would have been great to have some comfier sunbeds. There are wasps and bees around the pool but they are definitely tolerable and you did get used to them quickly. They only come for water so they don't bother you. Inside the house is lovely. It's very rustic and traditional which is what we wanted. I prefer to stay in a place with the local charm over a very new home so I loved it. Beds are good. Main bed could be bigger but it was fine for 2 weeks. Kitchen is small but has what you need. We didn't find any issues at all with it at all. Ate under the gorgeous pergola most nights. The added table tennis table was a nice touch to the garden too. The location is lovely. Staying away from the south was a great choice as there are so many beautiful local beaches with much fewer tourists than down south. We drove down to some beaches and a Waterpark near the south of the island but it doesn't take long, 40 min or so. Just try and hire a car that can manage to get up hills! Definitely read the visitors book in the house, we left some details of some great places we visited and went to some that previous visitors had mentioned. Well worth it! Martin, thanks for having us and also for helping us with the car hire connection!

Dear Kerry and family. Thank you for your detailed review and we are pleased that you enjoyed your holiday in our converted and modernised olive growers cottage. Your comments are important and we try to improve the place every winter. Your pool visitors were bees 🐝 our neighbours have hives and of course in the very hot weather they need a drink. We’ve never been stung and the honey is delicious. Glad you enjoyed the local coves and beaches.

Perfect rustic getaway

Spiti Martini is just what we were looking for. An easy drive from the airport in the quiet north of the island. Plenty of excellent tavernas a short drive away and local shop at the bottom of the hill for essentials. Had to ask the manager for some shade over both the pool eating area and the main table as it got very hot around lunchtime. Unfortunately the washing machine stopped working on our third day. Despite a repair attempt the next day it couldn’t be fixed until our last day. One of those things but still a little frustrating. Would we go back? Yes!

Beautiful and peaceful

This is our second time staying at Spiti Martini, and it was a wonderful place to retreat to. The garden was just as beautiful as we remembered, with its gnarled olive trees, and cypress trees and steps up to the pool. Spiti Martini is the perfect location to explore the beaches and coastline of Northern Zakynthos, and not far from our favourite swimming spot, Porto Limnionas. The villa is very nicely decorated and furnished; it's very easy to feel at home here, unlike many villas we have stayed in in Greece over the years. Giorgios the house manager was wonderful and friendly and helps answer any question. Now back in London, we miss it and will always want to go back again

Simple, relaxing , luxury. A perfect family villa

We had the most wonderful week here at spiri martini. Relaxing and easy. The villa was perfectly clean, the pool was spotless and cleaned all week. A lovely sized pool perfect for my teenagers. We loved every minute of this week. Giorgios the property manager was friendly and helpful. The cleaner did an exceptional job mid week. The outside are was lovely. So many lovely tavernas and beaches to visit. Post Covid lockdown we chose well in Zante. No quarantine restrictions going back to UK. It was truly an escape. Feel very grateful to have had this week away

Lovely house in an idyllic setting

Spiti Martini more than fulfilled our expectations. The house is very attractive and the beautiful garden, with all its different seating areas, was the perfect place to relax and unwind. And the pool is amazing. Set in a beautiful part of Zakynthos with some lovely beaches, although inevitably they were pretty busy in early July. A great base to explore the north of the island, or just take things easy.

Amazing tranquil villa. Would suit family or couple looking for peace and quiet

We have just returned from a lovely week in Zante at Spiti Martina. Want to cover a few points to note about the property before the good bit: It is a two bedroom property with an open planned mezzanine above the living room. This would only be suitable for families as we took a friend who did not have any privacy apart from changing on the shared bathroom. Also not appropriate for older famiky members as mezzanine is up a steep set of stairs. Take lots of insect repellent, we did but were still eaten alive as property is rural. Ensure that you hire a good car and do not mind driving on coastal cliff roads as this is the only way in and out of the villa and can be a little worrying if you are not a confident driver at night. Make sure that you fill up with shopping on the way to the villa at one of the large supermarkets near Zante town as is much more reasonable and the villa has a fridge freezer. Please note it does not have an oven so cooking will be by hob or grill on the BBQ. The swimming pool is set up steep uneven stone steps and therefore can not be seen from the house not ideal for young children to be left unattended. We had a wonderful time at the Villa, we went with my three children, husband and a family friend. The children loved the pool and I loved the sun terrace. Very private and all day long suntrap. The walled garden outside the villa gave us a lovely setting for al fresco dining or chilling with a coffee and a book in the shade. The villa was lovely and clean an rustic just what I needed. There is a small shop over the rd for basics and cafes in Volimes which is a 8 min drive into the hills. Go to Aghios Nikolaus only 8 mins downhill and catch boat trips or attend a Greek night on a Friday at the small seafront restuarant at the end of the bay. Be sure to go on Trainaki in Alykes leaves at 10.45 every day feom the Jammin bar is a lovely tour. If you are looking to be able to rest and enjoy self catering this holiday is for you , it is not within walking diatance of bars and tavernas so you will need to drive. The amenities were great and the staff (pool and cleaners) very helpful. Spiti Martini is a lovely place to be creative or just kick back and switch off. My children enjoyed not having Wifi and although their 4g worked they dis not use it instead we played Coita, Boule, Cards, Draughts , Backgammon and one night they put on an X factor type show on the natural stage in the garden. We will definitely return to the villa

Spiti Martini = Paradise

Excellent location. The house is really comfortable and has plenty of room to allow some privacy when needed. Beaches (pebbles) are really close, and even the first sand beaches are 20 minutes by car. We had a couple of requests for the house manager, Giorgio, and he solved both in less than 20-30 minutes (Thanks Giorgio!). So, overall, we had a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Thanks.

Spiti Martini is a beautiful place that we would happily return to.

Spiti Martini is a beautiful place that we would happily return to. Unfortunately, because of unusually strong rainstorms that lasted for days, we we unable to take advantage of the garden and pool, which was a bit disappointing. But it was paradise before the storm arrived and we loved the house, its surroundings and the island.

Relaxing, tranquil, fab pool and fabulous area.

Ah, what a blessing to be returning to the peace & serenity of Spiti Martini! The Villa - with it's new updates & additions was perfect - the pool splendid & provided hours of fun for the boys (Action cam used a lot) and respite from the (wonderful!) heat for Tracy. Highlights: boat trip, Water Park and swimming in an azure sea - the colour of which soothes the soul. I never cease to feel awe at it's beauty. Fabulous meals @ El Sueno and Nicos by the Sea (reviewed on Trip Advisor). Breakfast croissants at La Grotta (St Nicholas) and delicious bread from Volimes bakery. Thank you Martin and Jane. Thank you George & Co for your care and consideration to detail. Zakynthos we've fallen in love with you all over again. Ian, Tracy, Alex and Matthew

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

We discovered this place with its pleasant climate and visited on holiday several years. We bought the house in a lovely position in the quiet hamlet above Megaloni in Skinaria..restored and rebuilt and re equipped it . Walled the estate and excavated and built a modern swimming pool , terracing , seperate driveway. It gives us peace and a place to return to year after year. We decided to let it to help defray the costs for part of the year whilst continuing to keep a home in Wiltshire.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

Peace . Lovely rural position yet close to the sea and local tavernas as well as far enough away from the busy coast road to afford a good holiday. Friendly neighbors.
