Lefkada is a picturesque island in the Ionian Sea, surrounded by 24 scenic islets. Located on the west coast of Greece, this idyllic getaway boasts lush greenery and crystal blue waters.

The east coast is famous for enchanting villages steeped in heritage and tradition. After a long day of touring its attractions, you need a relaxing place to stay and wind down.
