Development Overview - Pefkos Gardens
Pefkos
The Area
Our villas are located on the outskirts of Pefkos, approximately 2.5km from the centre of the village. The area is especially peaceful and the only noise to be heard comes from the birds and other wildlife that inhabit this tranquil hillside location.
Pefkos means ‘Pine Tree’ in Greek and probably got its name from the surrounding hillsides which are awash with pine forests. The smell of pine floods over Pefkos at most times of day but it is especially scented in the early evening. Pefkos was once a small, traditional fishing village but over the years has developed into a very popular holiday resort for couples, groups and families alike.
Pefkos has a plethora of bars, tavernas, restaurants and hotels, as well as tourist shops, supermarkets and a bakery.
The two beautiful sandy beaches may be what attract many people back to Pefkos year after year. Water sports are now becoming available to compliment the pleasure boat and glass bottom boat trips that have been available for many years. Although Pefkos is a busy resort, during the day it is unusual to find many people around the main street- most are either on one of the beaches or relaxing by one of the many pools available for use by everyone.
Pefkos is just a ten minute drive from the famous ancient village of Lindos, overlooked by the magnificent Acropolis. A walk through the narrow cobbled streets of Lindos gives a real sense of what a Greek village was like hundreds of years ago. There are now many tourist shops selling anything from pottery and lace to fridge magnets and children’s toys. There are also many jewellery shops selling gold and silver pieces. You can visit the Acropolis either by foot or on the back of a donkey! The views from the Acropolis are beautiful and from here you can look down on the picturesque Saint Paul’s Bay; where it is legend that St Paul sheltered from an incredible storm.
The nightlife in Lindos ranges from tavernas and restaurants to bars and some nightclubs. There really is something for everyone!
