First class two-bedroom villas are hard to come by along this extraordinary and diverse stretch of coastline, especially if you’re looking for a tranquil retreat within walking distance of Sivota itself. But Villa Anthilia is just that. A rare find, recently built to a very high specification, it’s the epitome of understated style with dazzling views across the Ionian to Corfu and Paxos, private pool terrace and peacefully set within a beautifully maintained lawned garden.
Thoughtful design ensures the stunning vista takes centre stage at every turn and the single storey layout feels both luxurious and practical; ideal for couples or families travelling with toddlers outside the school holidays, yet perfectly suited to small families in the peak season too.
The spacious open plan living area is well appointed; pale décor complemented by natural stone floors and wooden fittings creating a harmonious sense of relaxation which extends into the villa’s two comfortable en-suite bedrooms.
Outside there are several very appealing (dare we say decadent) options for lounging by the pool and the shaded dining terrace is as lovely a spot as you could hope to find for lazy lunches, sunset drinks and dinner under the stars.
And then there’s the location, just over 10 minutes’ walk down to Zavia Beach, or Sivota where you’ll find a good selection of waterfront tavernas, shops and bars. Adventurers will find plenty to do in the both the local area and wider Epirus region too; hire a boat and explore the coast, take a day trip to Parga, head across the water to Paxos or venture inland and discover the slate villages of Zagoria or the vast Vikos natural park. It’s a destination that has so much to offer whether you’re a sun-lover, history buff, walker or seafarer – and a stay at Villa Anthilia guarantees you can do all of it (or almost none of it) in style.

Lovely villa with excellent views. Convenient for Sivota town with restaurants and shops. Beautiful infinity pool and the outside hot shower was a bonus.
We have used Simpson Travel for 7 years and this was our 11th booking and yet again our overall travel experience was outstanding. The villa exceeded our expectations in every respect. We had two young adults with us (21 & 22) and anticipated they would go out every day. How wrong we were - they wanted to savour the villa, its facilities and the stunning views. We would have no hesitation making a return visit.
Villa Anthilia has wonderful views, a fantastic pool and lots of outdoor furniture. It was very hot so the air con inside was very welcome. The bedrooms and bathrooms etc are all of a high standard. Vivian, the local concierge, is easily contactable and a wonderful font of knowledge and looked after us very well, particularly with the local wine.
Yet again, Simpsons comes to our rescue; we needed an R & R at quite short notice and could not have been more delighted with Villa Anthilia - fabulous location, beautiful villa, quite frankly it could not have been better. Thank you so very much!
Really beautiful villa with great views, very private - not overlooked at all. Very comfortable with excellent quiet air conditioning in every room. Easy walk into Sivota town in the evening with lots of restaurants to choose from and cheap readily available taxis back.
A special villa with great outdoor space and outstanding views only a short walk away from Zavia beach. Sivota quietly charms whilst wider Epirus is gloriously gorgeous.
This was my first experience with Simpson's and I was singularly impressed from start to finish. Holly at the central office was truly excellent and recommended Villa Anthilia which really lived up the information given by her. On arrival my 12 year old metal hip replacement gave me problems and I had to be transferred by wheelchair from the aircraft to the Terminal. Rania Mazi, your rep, met us and guided us through arrival and car hire but then booked a Greek doctor to investigate pain. He and she arrived at the Villa that evening and then next morning it was evident that an Xray was needed. This required a taxi and Rania accompanied me to the Regional Hospital and stayed with for 6 hrs while the process was completed. She kept in touch and then arranged a wheelchair and Ambi-lift at both airports for the return journey. This was an outstanding service, effective, efficient and genuine care. I am most indebted for her support, guidance and empathy. We absolutely loved our holiday, despite my injury having the potential to ruin this much needed break. I have travelled widely and this was, unquestionably, a brilliant experience with Simpson's; the booking, villa quality, location, service and support was top drawer. Huge thanks to the whole team but Rania Mazi must be singled out as providing support way beyond what might have been expected. Thank you Simpson's for a superb experience. We will certainly be back.

The beautiful villa and stunning views speak for themselves. Brilliant weather, wonderful restaurants and cafés and superb Simpson staff made for a really lovely holiday. A boat trip to Paxos was great value and much enjoyed. Sivota is most welcoming and it would be hard not to have a return visit with Simpson. Thank you. No-one could fail to love this place.
We have had a wonderful stay at Villa Anthilia. We couldn't have had a better holiday so thanks to Herm, Vivian and the rest of the Simpson Travel team for making our stay so magical.
First time with Simpson, excellent villa, have two more booked this year. Herm could not do more for us. Would recommend Simpson all round for service.
We had a wonderful realxing stay. Beautiful views from the terrace and the pool, a warm welcome from Herm. The boat hire was amazing, the bays to the north of the harbour the highlight. Will visit again.
We had a lovely week at beautiful Villa Anthilia. Amazing views to wake up to. We always felt looked after by the Simpson Travel team. It is our 2nd holiday with them and definitely recommend them.
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.

Unspoilt Sivota sits prettily in its own natural harbour just across the water from Corfu. A short walk away you’ll find two pristine sand-and-pebble beaches, with more to enjoy on the uninhabited islands offshore. The whole Epirus region lies on the doorstep, ripe for exploration. Take a day to discover the bridges and slate villages of Zagoria, hike the extraordinary Vikos Gorge, taste the best local fizz produced in the Pindus mountains or find out how the people of bustling Parga lived pre-tourism with a visit to its fascinating old olive oil press.
For couples, families and groups we offer a selection of handpicked luxury villas and stylish Simpson Hotels to help you make the most of your luxury holiday in Sivota.
