Location
Accommodation
Swimmers stay at George Studios, which is situated in an exclusive area, in the tranquil waterside fishing village of Yeni, Lefkada. Guests can relax with a sea view over Vliho Bay and the surrounding forest provides a calm and peaceful setting. The hotel has its own private jetty, enabling swimmers to literally roll out of bed and onto the boat!
All rooms have recently been refurbished to a high standard in a contemporary manner. Each room has a sea view with private balcony/seating area, air-conditioning, bathroom and its own small kitchen.
The hotel has wi-fi facilities enabling you to post facebook pictures to make your friends jealous!
The gardens of George Studios are ideal for unwinding after a hard days swim, chill out in a waterside sun lounger or even moisturise with hotel owner Zoe's home grown aloe vera from the garden and watch the yachts pass by.
Surrounding the area of Yeni are a number of small traditional tavernas, placed alongside the water, offering you the chance to eat local fresh specialities while watching the sun set.
