On the southern tip of Zakynthos island is a property quite unlike any other. Half-wild and gently healing, Marathias, known for its wild herbs and sulfur-spring fed magical waters, is one of the most beautiful places in the world. For freedom-lovers, adventure-seekers, and those who know in their bones that life is for enjoying, this is the perfect escape -- a cozy, bright cottage nestled among the enchanting sights, sounds, and fragrances of summer in Marathias. This is a place for experiences you’ll remember forever, from snorkeling from your front yard along mysterious rocky coves, exploring the sea-caves, and swimming in stars at midnight to encountering wildlife and feeling like a kid again as you wander among the wildflowers.
Here, in addition to having the best of the island curated and conveniently organized for you by your caring, knowledgeable hosts, you will experience our Californian family's ideal of indoor/ outdoor living, with a wraparound veranda which keeps the comfort of the stay directly connected to the wonders of the outdoors.
