Leeda’s Village ZAKYNTHOS, GREECE


Tucked away in the olive-covered hills of Lithakia, overlooking the protected islet of Marathonisi, Leeda’s Village offers an intimate glimpse into the authentic rhythm of Zakynthos’s countryside. This stone-built retreat is the embodiment of barefoot luxury, where simplicity meets sophistication. The estate unfolds among centuries-old olive


trees, blending traditional Ionian architecture with understated elegance. Each villa is crafted from local stone, with warm wooden details and soft earthy tones that mirror the natural environment. The result is a seamless harmony between comfort and authenticity, where guests feel not like visitors but temporary islanders. Life at Leeda’s Village moves at a mindful pace.


Guests are invited to reconnect with nature, whether by wandering through the organic gardens, joining the daily farm-to-table rituals or savouring seasonal dishes at the estate’s restaurant, Zefi. Its name, meaning the sharing of food around the table, captures the spirit of communal dining that defines the Greek experience. Under the guidance of chef Giannis Remos, the menu


celebrates the island’s produce with creativity and respect — olive oil from the property’s groves, vegetables harvested each morning, local cheeses and handmade preserves all come together in dishes that tell the story of Zakynthos. On nights when the moon is full, the atmosphere


is magical as its silver light reflects across the sea. Indulge in a soothing massage amidst the olive groves, overlooking the shimmering sea — or enjoy in the privacy of your room’s terrace or balcony. For those seeking a deeper connection with


the land, the farm tour picnic provides a sensory journey through the estate’s fields and orchards — a genuine taste of rural Zakynthos. Beyond the property, the area of Lithakia


retains a sense of timeless charm. Traditional tavernas, quiet beaches and small workshops dot the nearby villages, while the shimmering waters around Marathonisi are home to the endangered loggerhead sea turtle. This delicate balance of luxury and sustainability is what defines Leeda’s Village — a place where nature and hospitality coexist in perfect equilibrium.


DON’T MISS Indulge in a moonlit farm-to-table dinner at Zefki, wander olive groves and enjoy sunset views from the open-air pool
