Paxos is one of the most charming islands in the Ionian: a small, green island of olive groves, stone villages and three pretty harbours, with Antipaxos and its turquoise bays just to the south. There are no large hotels and no airport, which is exactly why so many people fall in love with it. Roula Rouva | Forbes Global Properties has an office in Lakka, on the north of the island, and our local team helps buyers find villas, houses and land on Paxos and Antipaxos. This page explains what Paxos offers, where to buy and shows real examples from our listings.

Where to buy on Paxos
Gaios, the island’s main harbour, is lively, with shops, restaurants and services all year. Loggos, a small fishing harbour on the east coast, is loved for its waterfront tavernas and nearby swimming coves.
