About this villa rental
Location
Perched at the top of the wooded valley overlooking the long sandy beach just 900m away, Villa Mounda Apollo enjoys views that stretch across the Ionian Sea to the island of Zante. The long soft sands shelve gently into the clear waters, and with just a few sunbeds and a couple of tavernas & snack bars, Mounda beach has a near-deserted and natural feel to it. Indeed, in both directions this stretch of coastline takes in several protected areas where the endangered loggerhead turtles come to nest.
Just a short drive away, the village of Skala offers a number of good tavernas & cafes, shops, quiet nightlife, and even watersports from the fabulous beach for the more adventurous. The added convenience of several supermarkets means you are never far from everything you might need for a relaxed holiday. From the villa, a short walk brings you to the small village of Ratzikli with a cafe and plenty of traditional character.

Despite being on the main road, the villa is very quiet and peaceful. We were absolutely blown away by the view from the villa , down the valley to the beach and across the sea to Zakynthos.
We loved watching birds of prey circling over the valley, and at night, bats skimming over the pool to catch insects. Mounda beach is amazing. and we became quite good at spotting the trails left by turtle hatchlings as they made their way to the sea the previous night.
The excellent taverna in Ratzakli is only 15 minutes walk from the villa, and Skala is only a 3k run or walk if you feel like it, (and it is all downhill!) There are plenty of taxis for the uphill journey home after a visit to the many bars and tavern
There are steep stairs between the parking area and the villa. Nothing that can be done about this, but it might be worth warning potential clients.

I love everything about Villa Mounda Apollo, the location, the views, the pool and the garden. The house itself has everything you need - fully equipped to accommodate our family (including a 2 yr old). Anti the host is the loveliest of people - she couldn’t have done more for us, such a special lady and friend to us all x

The layout and location of the villa were perfect. Lovely Antigone took great care of us and the villa during our stay. We particularly enjoyed being able to walk to the beach and restaurants, and also through the woods up the hillside.
