Kampi (Zakynthos) Cottage

Kampi is a small, elevated village on the west coast of Zakynthos, best known for the long view its cliffs give over the Ionian Sea at sunset. This property sits within that landscape: a two-storey stone main villa alongside two self-contained guesthouses, surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and the green mountainous backdrop that defines this corner of the island.

The property is a group of three traditional stone buildings: a two-storey main villa and two self-contained guesthouses. Together they offer 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms across 185 sqm of interior space, arranged so that family and guests can share the grounds while keeping their own quarters.

The main villa covers 89 sqm over two levels. The ground floor has an open-plan living and kitchen area, a family bathroom and a double bedroom. The attic-style first floor holds a further twin or double bedroom, tucked under the roofline. The stonework and layout keep the character of a traditional island house, with the practical flow of a modern holiday home.

Adjacent to the main villa are two separate guesthouses, each designed over a split level. They work well for visiting family and friends who value their own space, and they can equally be let out when the owners are not using them. Having accommodation that is genuinely independent of the main house is one of the more useful features here for a larger family or a group that gathers each summer.

With three independent stone buildings on one plot, this property can generate rental income in several ways at once. The two guesthouses can be let separately from the main villa, giving genuine flexibility: rent all three units together for a large group booking, or let the guesthouses individually while the owners use the main villa themselves. Kampi’s sunset views and its position among olive groves and vineyards are strong draws for the kind of guest who books a longer stay, and the split-level, self-contained layout of the guesthouses means each can operate independently without disturbing the others. That combination of privacy and shared grounds is well suited to family groups, and equally to rental guests looking for more than a standard apartment.

Kampi sits on the elevated west coast of Zakynthos, known above all for its sunset views over the Ionian Sea from the cliffs. The surrounding landscape is defined by olive groves, vineyards, and green mountains, giving the area a quieter, more rural character than the island’s coastal resorts.
