Located just a short stroll to the unspoilt Gerakas Beach (800m), Aura offers the perfect setting for a relaxing holiday in the south of Zakynthos. 

Picturesque Gerakas Beach, a long stretch of sandy stretch of appealing coastline, is renowned for being part of the Zakynthos Marine Park – a protected area of ecological importance due to being a nesting beach for the endangered Caretta Caretta sea turtle.

Within an even shorter stroll you will find a handful of popular local tavernas plus a mini-market, whilst nearby Vasilikos has further tavernas and small supermarkets plus seasonal water sports along the coastline.

Designed and decorated to a high standard, Aura is equally striking inside and out. With a good level of privacy from its sister villas (Metis and Aquatic) the garden offers plenty of natural shade from the heat of the day with the pristine, glistening pool sure to be popular.

Internally Aura has a stylish and friendly ambience. Centre of attraction is the wonderful panoramic window in the upstairs double room from where, along with the adacent, expansive balcony, stunning sea views can be enjoyed across the glittering pool and garden below.

All in all, Aura offers a serene and very restful setting from where it is easy to make the most of all that Vasilikos and the surrounding areas have to offer. 

  • Being located next door to Metis and Aquatic means Aura could be a good choice for an extended family or a group of friends who can be near to each other whilst retaining their own individual space and privacy. 
  • The twin bedroom can be prepared as a double on request – please ask at time of booking.

Great Things to Do Near Aura

Learn about Turtle Conservation

Zakynthos is renowned for the famous Loggerhead Caretta Caretta turtles and the Turtle Conservation Centre in Gerakas is the perfect place to learn about all things turtle! Learn about the conservation efforts the island has to protect this special species and you may even be lucky to see a turtle being taken care of before being released back into the sea. 

Discover Navagio Shipwreck

A trip to Zakynthos is not complete without a trip to see the iconic Navagio Shipwreck and beach. Only accessible by sea (or from the viewing platform above), dramatic white cliffs and glistening waters make this one of the most stunning locations on the island. Unfortunately, you cannot access the beach but renting a boat will get you as close as possible to see this wonderful sight.

Take a splash at the waterpark

Ideal for those with children (or those who are children at heart), Water Village is great for a fun day out. Home to a number of water slides for all ages, children's play area and a lazy river, Water Village is fun for all the family. 

Banana Beach

Perfect for all ages, Banana Beach has it all. This long stretch of sandy beach is ideal for those looking to relax and enjoy a cooling dip in the azure sea. For the more adventurous, a number of watersports are also available to participate in. 

Keri and Marathonisi Island

A trip to Keri is a must-do on any trip to Zakynthos. Take a boat out to the idyllic Keri Caves to explore and visit Marathonisi Island, also known as Turtle Island. The island really is shaped like a turtle and you may be lucky to see some famous Loggerhead turtles swimming near the island. 

Wine tasting

Zakynthos is home to multiple wineries offering different tastes to please everyone. Take a tour of the winery, learn about the different types of wine produced on the island and even take home a bottle or two to enjoy!

Visit Zante Town

A trip to Zante Town is not to be missed. Wander the charming streets filled with coffee shops and shops whilst soaking up Venetian architecture. The town offers a laidback atmosphere mixed with culture with plenty of tavernas to choose from to experience the local cuisine. 

Panoramic views at Porto Limnoimas

A hidden cove accessed by narrow winding streets, unbeatable views await at Porto Limnoimas. Take a dip in the sparkling sea and once cooled down, head to the taverna perched above the cove for local, fresh food with one of the best views on the island. 

Gerakas beach

Within walking distance, Gerakas beach is not to be missed. This natural sandy beach is perfect for spending the day relaxing and enjoying refreshing dips in the glistening sea. Gerakas beach is also a turtle nesting beach so, if visiting at nesting time, you may be able to see evidence of newborn turtles or spot one or two on the coastline. 

Visit the Blue Caves

Together with Navagio Shipwreck, visiting the Blue Caves on the north coast of Zakynthos is the perfect day out. Larger boats cannot gain access to the caves so renting a small boat will give you access to these stunning formations- a sight to behold.
