- Glorious harbour views
- Gaios tavernas and shops 5min walk
With its emerald sea, moon-white beaches and enchanting harbour villages, there’s nowhere quite like Paxos to soothe your mind and open your eyes to the natural beauty of the world. Life here is disarmingly simple, and all that’s really needed to appreciate it is your own comfortable spot and a glorious view, both of which charming Bay View delivers from its gentle hillside position above Gaios.
Set in one and a half acres and spread out over three individual buildings, we are delighted to introduce our latest Simpson Hotel on the island. Bay View’s six suites are light, bright and welcoming and the simple style allows the views to take centre stage, using occasional flashes of colour to create a restful atmosphere. Each suite has its own large balcony or terrace with fine views of Gaios and the Ionian Sea. You’ll find everything you need to hand, including a kitchenette and a small fridge so you can have your morning tea or evening G&T just the way you like them.
The hotel is the domain of Villy, a long-term Paxos resident with a passion for her island and very happy to share her local knowledge. It’s blissfully easy to lapse into the laid-back rhythm of island life; linger over breakfast served on the beautiful dining terrace, then laze by the new pool or spend the day discovering Paxos’ tiny hidden coves and perfect picnic spots in a small hired motor boat. Then, as the sun dips low over the horizon, it’s just a five-minute walk into Gaios for drinks and dinner. Slow and sleepy in May and October, Gaios opens its arms to visiting yachting flotilla in the main summer months, creating a livelier atmosphere. However, if you prefer a more intimate setting, simply pour yourself a drink and retreat to your terrace to enjoy the herby fragrance of a Mediterranean evening beneath a canopy of southern stars.

Bay View is an oasis of calm and tranquility. An idyllic setting. Villy and her team made us very welcome. Villy suggested places to visit, offered to book taxis and restaurants if required, and was readily available throughout our stay.
Thank you, Villy, and all the staff for a wonderful two weeks in such a beautiful location. The attention to detail and the friendliness of the people is what makes Bay View special.
A superb holiday that exceeded all our expectations.
What a lovely view! We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and having a drink before going out to dinner. We did some lovely walks, a day on the e-bikes, a day on the self-drive boat and a day on San Sebastian (Classic Cruises). We enjoyed our breakfasts on the terrace and the lovely calm atmosphere. Thank you.
Wow! It is just perfect here! Thank you so much to Villy and the girls – all so friendly and welcoming. Villy – you have got everything so right here – our lovely ‘little house’ with its beautiful terrace overlooking two bays – it’s so peaceful and tranquil. We wish you continued success in this most romantic of places.
As Seniors, we have appreciated the tremendous care to detail provided by all members of the Simpson team, whether at airports, ports, or at final destination. From now on, we will always choose a Simpson Holiday, as we know the standard of their properties is excellent, and we will always be well cared for!
Had a wonderful stay, looked after so well by Villy and her brilliant team. First return to Paxos after 30 years and the island didn’t disappoint – in fact it seemed more beautiful than ever. The apartment is lovely and I really enjoyed relaxing by the pool. Villy’s enthusiasm for Paxos shone through and her knowledge of the island suggested some great trips.
A very tranquil and relaxing environment. Beautiful view over Gaios harbour from our balcony. Thoughtfully equipped room and comfortable. Villy (the owner) is so attentive and helpful, ordering taxis, recommending restaurants, beaches and booking boat trips. We will return again next year.
Thank you all for the most perfect of holidays. Your island is wonderful, surprising and full of hidden gems. The food, views and everything else has been amazing. But it has been your friendship and welcoming approach that has made it all the most relaxing and lovely holiday we have had in years. We will be back.
Another fabulous week in Gaios, made more special by the facilities at Bay View. Thank you to Villy and her team for friendliness, support, sparklingly clean rooms and brilliant breakfasts.
This was our second visit to Bay View and it did not disappoint. The overall standard of service and facilities was excellent and Villy and her staff made our stay so pleasant.
This was a real treat of a holiday. What a superb place to stay and such a warm and welcoming owner and staff. Wonderful breakfasts. Nothing was too much trouble. Great view and position in Gaios.
Second visit to Bay View. Villy our wonderful host was a delight as always, as were the lovely staff. Overall a great location and facilities. Nothing was too much trouble and they made our stay as idyllic as our first visit.
Very pleasant. The gardens were very peaceful to relax in.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bay View on Paxos. The accommodation was comfortable and spacious, with a lovely landscaped garden area where we ate breakfast every morning, and swam in the pool. The host Villy was very welcoming, knowledgeable and warm. She definitely went the extra mile to make us feel welcome and to help organise our stay, booking restaurants and suggesting beaches and activities for us to enjoy. Paxos is a beautiful island, with plenty of beaches, food options and things to do. We will definitely be back soon!
We have absolutely loved our first visit to Paxos. Villy and her girls are great and it’s a wonderful place to stay. Villy’s knowledge and recommendations for everything from taxis to tavernas has been spot on. Taxis are a great way to get around here – nowhere is very far away and they aren’t expensive. We hired a little boat for a day which was fun and interesting. Food has been very good everywhere, but we loved Averto in Magazia. We’ll be back soon.
We came to Bay View and had chosen Jasmine Upper for a week. Such peace and quiet – the website certainly does not do the apartment justice. Waking up with stunning views from the balcony was a real tonic! Breakfast served amongst the olive trees and flowers added to the relaxed atmosphere. All the staff have been wonderful and happy in their work – thank you. Most of all we would like to thank Villy for creating such a beautiful sanctuary.
Thank you for all you do to make our stay here so wonderful. This is the third year we have stayed here and we absolutely love it. Paxos is a small piece of heaven and Bay View is very definitely our happy place. We love the many bars and restaurants that we have visited. We cannot wait to come back again. Thank you for everything.
The Bay View is ideally located close to town with panoramic views of the harbour. The hotel is an oasis of tranquility, just a short walk from the centre of Gaios. The town had a wonderful atmosphere with plenty of tavernas to choose from and a selection of boutique shops. The service from Villy (the owner) and her staff made our stay perfect.
Returning to Paxos after 30 years and it’s still a beautiful and very special island. The azure, clean seas are fabulous. Bay View has captured the essence of the island to perfection. It’s tranquil, with beautiful views of Gaios. Comfortable and friendly, all the team are great. Thank you Villy for all your advice and your welcome. What a wonderful spot you have created on this magical island. We will be back.
This is our third trip to Bay View and we have had a really relaxing and enjoyable holiday. Thank you to Villy and her team for making our trip so lovely. Of course we will be back!
Wow! Mimosa is amazing – our little haven for a week! Paxos is the purest gem and we will certainly return again. Villy and her girls are superb, so attentive and caring.

Beautiful…relaxing, chilled…as always on Simpson holidays. Good conversation and evenings out with fellow guests. Hope to return next summer.

A lovely place to stay on the nicest of Greek islands. Loved everything about Paxos – great food and a great place to relax. Thanks to Villy for making everything so easy!
Have enjoyed a wonderfully relaxing week at Bay View. Have felt very welcome by the kindness of Villy and her team, as well as locals in the bars, shops and restaurants. We will miss the tasty breakfasts on the terrace, the tranquillity of the pool area, and sitting on the balcony watching the boats coming in and out of the harbour. Thank you for helping us make some special holiday memories. We loved it.
Passing through the black gate into Bay View’s welcoming secret garden was one of the many pleasures on this, our lovely decompression holiday. We delighted each day in the clever landscape terraining and abundant planting around us whilst enjoying our exceptional breakfasts – thank you to Nicola and Eleni! Villy was superbly friendly and helpful by organising a car for us for two days (perfect for visit to Loggos and Lakka) and putting us in touch with a highly competent boat hire company. Most of all we relaxed in our Bougainvillea apartment with its stunning views – just what we needed. Thank you so much, Villy, for your hospitality and for the kindness from all.
Wonderful location, friendly people, beautiful island – peaceful, buzzy, great weather, azure seas and Villy managing her guests with humour and efficiency! A great holiday!
We’ve had a wonderful week. Paxos is such a lovely place and Bay View has been perfect for us. We have been very well looked after by Villy and her brilliant team. Gorgeous, freshly made breakfasts. We’ve eaten well. We have found everyone so welcoming. Loved it – we will be back.
I found the Sampson’s website very informative and was able to choose the hotels with detailed knowledge of the rooms and facilities. In both Bayview and White Orchid we had the top suite which afforded us excellent views. The hosts at both locations were extremely friendly and wanted to please. The welcome meetings proved an ideal opportunity to meet fellow guests which created a pleasant environment for the holiday. Being able to walk into Gaios from Bayview was a real bonus.
Bay View is an ideal location with wonderful and very friendly staff. Villy is most helpful. We loved watching the boats from the balcony and the treat of such a short walk to the restaurants of Gaios. We walked to Mongonissi and Tripitos Arch. Most of the time we ambled around, enjoyed coffee or a beer watching some very inept boat users! Lots of wry amusement. We liked the peaceful atmosphere and the proximity to the town, which gave us the best of both worlds.
Thank you, Villy, and the team for such a warm welcome and for the good advice on how best to explore this beautiful island. Bay View is a little gem – an oasis of tranquillity above bustling Gaios with the most glorious view ever. We will return!
This week we celebrated our wedding with a truly romantic week here at Bay View with our wonderful host, Villy! We visited the same apartment last year when we got engaged and couldn’t think of a better place because of the relaxed atmosphere, the friendliness of the locals and the knowledge and insight provided by Villy. The catering and cleaning staff here were excellent – thank you Nika and Nicola. We have some amazing memories and pictures galore. Thank you again, Villy.
Third visit and just as good as always. Cannot fault Bay View or Paxos one bit. Excellent job, Villy, and see you again soon.
We have had a wonderful week at Bay View. Our room was just perfect and the views across the bay from the terrace are simply awesome! Villy is the perfect host and her staff the friendliest people, always smiling and happy to help. Villy’s advice and local knowledge about what to do and see, and where to eat, was invaluable. This is a real gem and a great find for anyone wanting to be both quiet and secluded, but also close to town. All in all, we came to simply relax, and we left very relaxed! A great week and one we highly recommend
Thank you for a wonderful stay. Bay View is just wonderful and a great location. Being able to walk into town is a real plus. We’ve been to Paxos several times and always visit Anti Paxos – it has the most beautiful beaches and sea around Greece. Hope to return again soon.
First time in Paxos and we hope not the last. Such a beautiful island and the kindest people. Villy and her team are wonderful. We had the best stay. Thank you, Villy and team.
We enjoyed a fantastic week at Bay View, a small 6 suite hotel with pool, five minutes walk into the lovely harbour town of Gaios, the largest town on Paxos. Our host Villy was available on arrival and every day at breakfast and throughout the day to guide us and assist with restaurant recommendations, boat hire etc. The restaurants were excellent and we ate out for lunch and dinner every day, good quality and value in the main, especially if you stick to carafe's of the local Greek wine! Definitely a place we intend to return to.
Lovely stay for us with Villy and the ladies looking after us. Some nights we ate in, others out and one night a takeaway pizza. Loved eating breakfast down by the pool, although I don’t think I’ll need another egg for a week or two. Loved the view from our balcony, and despite the weather enjoyed 3-4 swims in the pool. Also, lots of walking and visited Tripitos Arch. All in all a lovely relaxing holiday.
Our first visit to Paxos and it is certainly a beautiful island and at this time of year quiet and peaceful. Bay View is a little paradise – the views from the balcony are stunning and the breakfast terrace is heavenly. Villy and her staff have been amazing with lots of local knowledge and fantastic breakfasts. We particularly enjoyed our bus trip to Loggos, boat trip around the island and walking to the nearby beach. Huge thanks to Villy and the girls – it has been perfect.
A wonderful holiday staying at Bay View – so well looked after by Villy and her team. Perfect start to each day with a delicious breakfast. Excellent choice of restaurants in Gaios. Thank you Paxos and Villy – we will be back.
We had a wonderful holiday at Bay View - mainly due to its great location near Gaios and views from the hotel. The whole experience was enhanced by Villy's friendly approachable manner, her knowledge of Paxos and her excellent staff. We look forward to returning soon.
We have had such a wonderful holiday in this special place. Villy and her staff make sure that everything runs smoothly and efficiently and their friendliness and attention to detail is second to none. We would love to return before too long.
Paxos you have charmed us from the second we took in the most beautiful view from the balcony, we’ve had the most fun, walking, swimming, relaxing, exploring. We took a boat out around the island and to Anti Paxos – well worth it for the amazing views. Just a wonderful holiday. Thank you, Villy, for looking after all our needs and the girls for wonderful breakfasts and making our stay so comfortable.
Bay View is an excellent location - it is "in town" (5 min walk), but also "out of town" (if you want port views, a quiet location). Vinny is great host, and her staff looked after us well at breakfast. It is a very relaxing spot effectively located in an olive grove. You can enjoy the pool or your balcony. As you mention the steps within the site are significant - thankfully not a problem for us.
Our first trip to Paxos and it has been wonderful. Beautiful weather, people and food! Bay View is just perfect. We will be back. Thank you for looking after us so well.
We had an amazing holiday with Simpson Travel. We had some special needs and they tailored our trip to make the travel arrangements as smooth and stress-free as possible. The accommodation was beautiful and felt very exclusive and the staff were so friendly and helpful. I can't thank Simpson Travel enough for going the extra mile to ensure we had a successful and enjoyable holiday.
A beautiful hotel in an amazing location with wonderful staff and cats! We loved the quiet beaches and Marmari and Kipos especially. A fabulous place to unwind and relax. Thank you, Villy, and your happy, friendly team.
We had a lovely week at Bay View Villas. Our host Villy was friendly and very helpful. All the staff were very pleasant and added to the experience. Our room was at the top of the hillside and top floor so had terrific views. Overall we had an excellant holiday and would recommend this Island and resort to others.
Bay View surpassed our expectations. The view from our balcony was a beautiful view of the bay, which never failed to make us say how beautiful it was.The host and owner Villi went the extra mile to ensure our stay was perfect, from advise on restaurants to ordering taxis and arranging a boat trip with BBQ just for the 11 residents at Bay View. Wonderful gardens in which to eat a delightful breakfast each morning. We shall return to this haven.
I found this Company when searching for holidays to Greece and what a find, from their informative, patient staff in reservations through to their ground staff and style of accommodation, this Company understands the needs of the traveller. Our accommodation was the Bayview Apartments and it was exactly as the pictures depicted. Villy, the Owner, made us so welcome, helped us every day with ideas of where to go, where to eat, offering to book restaurants, taxis she was marvellous, it meant we could really enjoy Paxos. The accommodation was comfortable, well laid out and our room had a beautiful balcony overlooking Gaios. We saw the most lovely sunrises and sunsets. We had a great holiday and would be very happy to return.
This was a holiday booked in a different form from 2019. Many things have happened and eventually this holiday was arranged and …From leaving and arriving back home, both Simpson Travel and Villy at Bay View on Paxos have exceeded all my expectations on so many levels. This has been a life enhancing and changing holiday - going solo for the first time. You both have wrapped your compassionate proverbial ‘holiday arms’ around me with your attention to detail with precise well organised travel arrangements and I have felt safe and nourished with Villy’s wonderful expressions of care allowing me to explore this amazing island and have fun. I am now ready to ‘rock and roll ‘ with my life.
A thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable week at Bay View Hotel, Gaios. Great location, fantastic views and only a short walk to a multitude of bars and restaurants. Our concierge, Villy, could not have been more friendly or helpful - a perfect host.
Willy and the girls at Bay View were fabulous and made our stay wonderful. Many thanks to them.
Our first experience of Simpson Travel did not disappoint - great service all round . Gaios is a beautiful village and Bay View one of the best locations. So good to not need a car - the local boat / bus transport worked fine. We will return!
Bay View is a very unique place. The staff and owner were all excellent and could not do enough for us. The position of bay view is close to the town and the views over the bay are stunning . We would not hesitate to recommend this destination.
Another wonderful stay at Bay View on the beautiful island of Paxos. Everything was absolutely perfect....and we came back engaged to be married!!!!
We received a wonderful welcome to Bay View Hotel and our room was perfect, with the most stunning view of Paxos harbour. Our first visit to Paxos and definitely not our last.
Our stay at Bay View was absolutely magical. Everything about it was perfect (apart from the climb up the path back to the hotel after a long hot day on Anti Paxos! 😁). Villy the owner and her staff were a delight - so helpful and accommodating and the room was perfect. It was the first time in a long time for us that a room and hotel in general exceeded the descriptions in the holiday company blurb. If we go back to Paxos we will definitely visit Bay View again. Highly recommended!
Villy at Bay View Hotel exceeded our expectations. Her love and personal knowledge of Paxos was clear to see, but her dedication to ensuring that each guest staying at Bay View had a successful experience went far beyond any expectation.
Enjoyed our holiday at Bay View Gaios. Accommodation and situation excellent, as was the owner and staff. Transfers and representatives were very good. The owner Villy was always available and attentive to our needs. Mirella who served breakfast everyday was very efficient and remembered our preferences from day to day without needing to be reminded.
Villy and her staff looked after us incredibly well making us feel very welcome. Our room and terrace was lovely with a wonderful view of Gaios and really well placed to walk through the olive grove into the town. We really didn’t want to leave and we would definitely go back!
My wife and I came to Paxos and chose Bay View as our hideaway for a week together after enjoying a week in Corfu with our grown up children and their partners. This is a lovely small hotel in a fantastically convenient position for Gaios and all it has to offer. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed. Villy is just a wonderful host and is on hand every morning as you enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast under the olive trees, to help with bookings, taxis, advice on where to go etc. We had a lovely stay and the local rep Frances was always on hand to help and her efficient attendance to any queries was very much appreciated, especially given the difficulty with Covid restrictions. All in all, a really lovely place to stay.
Despite the doom-mongers and even our family thinking we were mad to get on a plane...we did and it was fantastic! Perfect virus antidote! Not once did we feel our safety was compromised. Postponing our planned trip in May, Simpson could not have been more helpful in rescheduling our travels for August/September – with a few tweaks along the way. Our first week was as The Saints in Corfu and we are almost loathed to say how lovely it was, as we may have trouble booking again! Perfect location, amazing views and the on-site concierge Debbie, was fantastic! What a gem...so welcoming, nothing too much trouble and always one jump ahead for anything we needed or wanted to know about. Second week on Paxos at Bay View was lovely too. It was a real contrast to Corfu…busy little port and lots going on! Villy looked after us very well and served a great breakfast under the trees. This was our first trip with Simpson Travel. Don't know how we’ve missed them, as we have done our fair share of travelling over the years. However, we are so impressed with the service, the attention to detail and the people they employ – we have already made a booking for next year…hopefully when the world is back to some normality!
We were impressed by the attention to detail throughout. All our transfers were monitored by Simpson staff who, without exception, greeted us with a smile and ensured that our passage was smooth and relaxed. Villy, our concierge, worked tirelessly to ensure our enjoyment of her lovely hotel and the island of Paxos.
Bay View was a sublime introduction to the Simpson Travel portfolio. Seamless meet/greet and transfer to Paxos (and back) and a beautiful location, comfortable accommodation and welcoming helpful and very friendly staff.
This was our first holiday with Simpson Travel. A great experience. Every detail was taken care of and we were so well looked after from booking our holiday to travelling to our destination and during our stay at the wonderful Bay View Hotel. Villy, who ran the hotel, was excellent at recommending restaurants, places to visit on the island and would take care of things such as booking taxis, restaurants and car hire. All excellent.
Bay View is an oasis of calm but so brilliantly located to get into Gaios. We had a lovely holiday here in Paxos and were brilliantly looked after by Villy and the girls. Breakfast on the beautiful garden terrace was delicious. Villy recommended a restaurant in Loggos which we visited and our last night was spent watching sunset in Erimitis Bay restaurant – magical. Our favourite restaurant in Gaios was Mambo on the seafront. We hired a boat and went round the island and visited the tree lined beach at Marmari bay. All in all a truly lovely holiday.
Oh my word! Feeling blessed to have spent two weeks in magical Paxos – swimming in the turquoise sea, boat trip with skipper, delicious meals, fantastic cocktails, and dips in the pool. We’ve loved every relaxing minute. Thanks to Villy and the girls for the wonderful breakfasts and the ever-smiling faces and Villy’s recommendations.
We had a wonderful stay at Bay View. Villy and her staff were the perfect hosts, nothing was too much trouble for them. The bus service is good for getting to Loggos and Lakka, very punctual as well. This was our first Simpson holiday, Villy and her team made it an absolute pleasure. Villy took trouble over my need for gluten-free food and decaffeinated coffee, it was such a relief not to have to worry about that every day. We loved everything, the location, rooms, views, pool, food and most of all the people.
Our holiday at Bay View was everything we hoped for – and more! Convenient location, fabulous views, comfortable accommodation, wonderful staff, excellent food – and the most comfortable beds and pillows we have ever experienced in any hotel in Greece! Villy and her team are simply fabulous; they go out of their way to do anything required to make your holiday special.
As a solo traveller I have had the best time exploring Gaios, Paxos and relaxing in this delightful hotel. I could not say MORE about how lovely Villy and the ladies are – so welcoming, kind and helpful. This has been the treat of a lifetime – thank you Simpson and Villy.
Thanks to Villy and staff – Bay View is wonderful and the attention to detail and helpful advice from Villy made our stay on Paxos all the more memorable. If you stay a week you wish you could stay a fortnight. A boat is more use than a car on Paxos.
We had a wonderful week at Bay View, with the balcony and the very best view. Villy and her team have looked after us so well – Villy was so welcoming, friendly and full of information. We felt right at home straight away. All of the girls were lovely, attentive and helpful – with the best smiles. Mimosa Upper is a great apartment and the balcony is the best, great to watch Gaios go by with all the laughter. We will be back soon.
Thank you for a fantastic stay in a place that we will never forget. We have had a wonderful two weeks. You have a very special island here. We have felt so relaxed. The restaurants, kayaking in the evening, boat trip around the island to name a few activities.
Bay View is a fabulous place to stay. Amazing location.
Our family has had the most fabulous week in this beautiful hotel. The balance between excellent, luxury and such a relaxed atmosphere is incredible. The staff are all outstanding. A magical piece of Greece! We have been blessed to be here! Many thanks.
Such a lovely week! Another great holiday on Paxos thanks to Villy and her staff. A special place.
Thank you so much Villy, Mirella and Nika for giving us such a lovely holiday and for all your recommendations and warm hospitality. The suite was very comfortable and just what we hoped for. Paxos is really a lovely island.
Bay View was a lovely location to explore the island of Paxos. Villy and her team looked after us extremely well and made us feel at home. Lots to do and thoroughly enjoyable.
We have had a wonderful stay. Villy and her team have made sure we have been well looked after. We shall very much miss the best view of Gaios.
Our first visit to Paxos and also first time with Simpson. Wonderful find on both counts and made even more special because of Villy and her two great girls. She is a fount of local knowledge and even came out to help us when we got stuck one evening!
A wonderfully relaxing holiday in a beautiful location. Villy and her team make you feel at home and look after you from the minute you arrive, until the sad moment you have to leave. Bay View is a great spot to enjoy Gaios and explore Paxos.
Our first visit to Bay View but our fourth to Paxos which was magical as ever, with very little changed in the four years since we were here last. Bay View has been really relaxing with its beautiful views, room, pool and garden area. We have not been disappointed. Thank you to Villy and her staff for a lovely holiday.
So many thanks to Villy and the girls for a wonderfully special week in Paxos after 36 years! We absolutely loved Bay View and the VIP treatment we received every day. And Paxos has not lost its magic.
Paxos is such a beautiful place and our stay here has been made very special by the peace and quiet of Bay View. Villy and her lovely team were wonderfully helpful and we hope to return. What a find!
What a truly beautiful island Paxos is. We couldn’t have stayed in a more perfect spot. The view is well worth the walk up from Gaios, which you soon get used to. Villy and her girls looked after us brilliantly. Villy has lots of ideas of where to go and couldn’t have been more helpful.
A beautiful place in a wonderful location, but it is Villy who makes Bay View so special.
Villy at Bay View was a fantastic hotel manager: most informative and helpful, with a great sense of humour. J.D.
What a perfect location for our second stay in Paxos – but our first Simpson holiday experience. It has been first class thanks to Villy and her lovely and efficient staff. Nothing was too much trouble. We also had the honour of meeting Graham Simpson himself – a charming and personable gentleman. We would love to return and/or visit some other Simpson destinations.
Thank you Villy, Nika and Mirella for looking after us so well – we had a wonderful holiday, you run the most beautiful places.
What a pleasure to enjoy the attractions of Bay View – so perfect in every way. Thanks to Villy and her team for their friendly assistance in making our week in Paxos so special.
We have had a very special time here in Paxos. Bay View has been most wonderful – Villy and her staff were all brilliant and looked after us so very well. Beautiful setting, the pool and gardens are so, so lovely.
We had a lovely week at Bay View. Location of the suites is fantastic. Villy was an excellent host – looked after us very well and had lots of good ideas on places to visit and restaurants, bars, etc. Nika and Mirella looked after us really well – excellent breakfasts! Excellent holiday – thank you. Hope to be back.
I’ve had a wonderful week. Everything was just perfect! I came alone for some thinking time and it was exactly the right thing to do. Villy was always at hand if you needed anything – but you have your own space here and can be as sociable (or unsociable) as you like. The room and its view were incredible and so relaxing. Nika and Mirella are so lovely and smiley and the breakfasts were always wonderful. The island is lovely for walking and swimming, pottering about, reading, thinking whatever you need to do. Thanks so much to Villy and the team.
This was our first Simpson experience – it was first class. This was our first visit to Paxos and we have fallen in love with it. A truly wonderful stay with Villy at Bay View. We hope to return. Thank you.
Bay View in Gaios was a delightful experience. Its location is near the town but totally private and peaceful with a glorious outlook. Villy is a happy local perfectionist and her staff are very friendly and efficient and nothing is too much trouble. They go the extra mile to make your stay memorable. We found the whole Simpson holiday experience first class and will definitely use the company again.
Thank you Simpson Travel for another wonderful relaxing holiday, made special by Villy, for whom nothing is too much trouble, a delightful host. We have been looked after by Nika and Mirella, both so friendly and cheerful. We hope to return and enjoy the Paxos experience again. It was perfect. Thank you.
We had a wonderful two weeks at Bay View – Villy was an exceptional host – friendly, welcoming and attentive, absolutely nothing was too much trouble, so helpful and informative for trips and eating out. Nika and Mirella worked so hard to keep our apartment spotless and provided wonderful breakfasts, always with huge smiles. Nika’s omelettes were to die for! Fabulous location with incredible views and great for local walks and plentiful tavernas and shops on tap in Gaios. Fantastic holiday – we will be back.
Our choice of Greek properties is as diverse as the islands themselves, ranging from simple seaside charm to genuine luxury and style. Much of our portfolio is privately owned, and price alone is therefore not a universal guide. We contract all our accommodation in person, and each property has its individual appeal.
To help you make the right choice based on your own priorities, we have devised a simple grading guide to be considered in conjunction with each individual property description, awarding up to a maximum of five stars for the below categories.
* For further clarification on Facilities and Amenities, please view the 'Details' tab for each property or speak to one of our experienced sales consultants.
There are few better ways of relaxing than on a luxury holiday in Paxos, where days fill up beautifully with sunbathing, swimming, snorkelling and dining in style, the sea just metres from your table. Amble through ancient olive groves and you’ll catch glimpses of startlingly turquoise bays, the dramatic west-coast cliffs or the Epiros Mountains. In spring, there’s also a haze of purple honesty, wild irises and lilies and a sky that’s alive with birdlife, from hawks to skylarks.
Complete the picture with a stay in one of our handpicked luxury villas, apartments or our unique Adult Only Simpson Hotels and make the most of this peaceful island.
