<p>You can't get more beachfront than at Villa Andriana Karvouno, built on the doorstep of the glittering waters of the Ionian Sea. Wake up each morning to the sound of the sea lapping upon the shore, where in just a few steps you can dip your toes into the calm, turquoise waters. The beautiful bay offers you sugar white sand, a designated area on the beach with sunbeds and parasols* and access by boat from the floating jetty  - you can rent a self-drive boat or arrange a water taxi for an unforgettable water getaway. The beach restaurant and bar is also the perfect place for breakfast or lunch - and just a few steps from your villa.</p> <p>Villa Andriana Karvouno is a showstopper when it comes to its outdoor living, surrounded by 1500 square metres of glorious grounds that offer the most charming atmospheric setting. The verdant trees and exotic plants around the garden bring the beautiful surrounding countryside into the grounds, with a large lawn that adds to the serene setting. For the perfect lazy afternoon, plunge straight into the gleaming azure pool or sink into the bubbling hot tub. You'll struggle to find a more idyllic spot than the poolside sun loungers, made for soaking up some rays and admiring the jaw-dropping scenery. There's a barbecue perfect for grilling up a feast in the Greek sunshine with an alfresco table on the patio or under the shaded veranda. We recommend heading up to one of the balconies to witness the sensational golden sunsets with a glass of wine in hand. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, there's even a giant chess board, perfect for inquisitive minds.</p> <p>The chic and white-washed exteriors ooze a modern feel throughout the home, with linear, straight-cut architecture and wide glass windows that let the sunshine seep in. The interiors are bright and airy, with fresh white walls and contemporary decor that comes to life with playful pops of colour. The ground floor brings the outside in, with the open-plan living area opening out to a sun-kissed balcony overlooking the azure sea below. The well-equipped kitchen will be sure to please any budding chefs, with modern appliances and a sleek dining table for elegant meals. Extremely spacious, with two separate living rooms to yourself, one equipped with a home cinema making it perfect for family movie nights. For some extra opulence, there's even a gym and an indoor hammam if you want to let off some steam. We reckon Andriana Karvouno pretty much has it all!</p> <p>Set just outside the laid-back village of Sivota Bay, get a real taste of Greece in its bougainvillaea-lined streets full of cafes and restaurants. Its rugged and twisting coastline has numerous beaches to sink your toes into, from long sandy swathes filled with beach bars to secluded coves only reachable by boat. If you fancy something a little livelier, head down the coast to the picturesque town of Parga to explore some historical jewels. </p>
