Ithaki Villas: New Development for sale in Ithaki, Ionian Islands, Greece

Ithaki is a unique place in many ways. The vegetation embraces the numerous beaches while scattered houses emerge here and there. Its numerous high and not so high hills within a small area, create breathtaking views and a dramatic landscape. Its small size and relative difficulty in access discourage mass tourism and development in a big scale. All the villages have changed very little through time and the houses have to follow by law the traditional characteristics of the area. It is the visitor seeking privacy, contact with nature and old traditions, who is rewarded most.The intimacy and picturesque nature convey to the visitor the feeling of its history. Situated in the centre of the Ionian Sea, Ithaki offers a great advantage in exploring the neighbouring islands.With a small boat, it is only a matter of half an hour away, to reach many beaches, some of which are considered among the best in Greece.
