Villa Lagaria – Zakynthos, Greece
Lagaria ticks every single box. Set in the hills with fabulous views, it’s a stunningly designed villa, beautifully styled and furnished, and hard not to beat for a week or two of Greek life. We love the huge veranda with its long dining table and sofas, outdoor pizza oven, and dotted around the grounds, you’ll find different places for relaxing with a cool glass of something. With its spacious rooms and a self-contained studio, Lagaria is a haven for large families and groups of friends.

There are all the facilities and activities that the Peligoni Club has to offer and there’s no end of things to occupy the whole family for a week or more. The water sport sat the club are excellent, with tuition for beginners and a whole host of equipment that the more experienced can use. There’s sailing, windsurfing, paddle boarding kayaking, and when the conditions are good, water skiing, wakeboarding and wake surfing. There is also a speed boat that guests can hire.
For people who prefer to stay dry, the club has tennis courts and coaching and bike hire with guided tours. And for those who can’t sit still for long, there are fitness classes and a gym. Alternatively, take advantage of some free time and just book into the Spa for a couple of treatments. There is always something going on, so be sure to keep an eye out for evening events too.
family
Villa Lagaria has a separate Games room with a table tennis table and loads of board games. The Peligoni strikes the perfect balance for active families. The childcare here always gets rave reviews, from its crèche to the brilliantly organised Sharky & George kids’ activity programmes, to the teen activities. Children can learn to sail or windsurf, have kayaking and paddle boarding tuition and will come away having made a lot of new friends and had a very active holiday.
The Peligoni Club
Villa Lagaria is attached to The Peligoni Club – a unique concept which allows all the family to relax away from the villa in their own way. The club is the base of all the activities and services for guests booked into one of our villas and in our opinion a great perk to your holiday. With a laid back vibe it is a members only beach club that offers a relaxed style of luxury. With excellent childcare, water sports, biking, yoga, long lunches with friends, the club is a hub of conviviality and fun, whatever your age.
Peligoni is a membership club, so when you book a villa, you’ll also need to book membership that covers your entire stay.
