Most travel writers who visit Paxos include a glowing mention of Monodendri beach on Paxos’ east coast, in between Loggos and Lakka.
At one end of the beach there is Bastas Taverna (serving the best grilled octopus and feta pizza we have tasted) and at the other end: Ben’s Bar (with resident masseur and ambient music to accompany a long list of cocktails) and on a hillside terrace above is Eftihia (Ben’s mum)’s excellent taverna with freshly caught fish and freshly plucked ingredients and our favourite lunchtime Paxos view.
The winding access road down to Monodendri passes about eight houses but the valley above the beach is delightfully natural and thick with olive groves, peppered by tall cypress and bushy pine.
Just 250 metres above the beach are the two villas, Narkissa and Delia. The villas are identical apart from a few differences in colour schemes.
There is a distance of 10 metres between the villas but the swimming pool terraces are on the far side of each villa and are totally private.
Delia has stunning views over the surrounding olive groves and across the sea to the Greek mainland.
Just below the villa is the beach, fringed by olive trees, and a choice of two of the best tavernas on the island.
Private swimming pool 6.2 x 3.2 metres & depth 1.5 metres
Maid service & linen change twice weekly

Facilities:
Each year we come back to Paxos and say we'll do more exploring but we still spend nearly all our time at Monodendri beach so we thought it was best to book a villa above the beach - and we're glad we did!
For us, the best beach, the best bar and the best tavernas on Paxos are all here.
We come back to Paxos each year for its unique beauty and magic but also to spend most of our days unwinding within easy reach of Ben's Bar at Manadendri Beach so Delia spoils us and more!
Daily routine at Villa Delia: late wake up; hop skip & jump for a sea swim; coffee & swim back at our pool; hours to decide which beach taverna for lunch; siesta; late afternoon swim in pool; sea swim and beach tanning; chilled wine back at the villa and another decision on where to have dinner ... nice.
