ISAVROS VILLA
Description
A beautifully restored 16th-century stone residence surrounded by olive groves, offering history, serenity, and refined island living at the heart of Paxos.
Nestled among ancient olive trees in the peaceful interior of Paxos, Isavros Villa is a remarkable historic retreat that offers guests a rare opportunity to experience the island’s living heritage. Originally built in the late 1500s by a family seeking refuge from Turkish-ruled Epirus, the house has stood for centuries as a symbol of sanctuary and resilience. Just a few meters from the villa lies the small chapel they built — a tradition shared by many early settlers and one of the reasons Paxos is home to 72 churches today.
Meticulously restored between 2019–2020, the villa has been preserved with extraordinary care. Every stone from the original structure was cleaned, reset, and respectfully reintegrated, allowing the home to maintain its authentic proportions and character while benefiting from discreet modern comforts. The result is a harmonious blend of heritage and contemporary living — a peaceful haven where the past feels very much alive.
Surrounded by tranquil groves and with open views across the island’s gentle landscape, Isavros Villa is an ideal sanctuary for guests seeking quiet, beauty, and a deeper connection to Paxos’ history. Whether reading beneath the olive trees, dining outdoors under the Indian lounge tent, or swimming in the long, elegant pool, the experience is one of serenity and timeless charm.
