Beach cottage with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms in Limnos, Greece
From €840 per week
Ataraxia is a renovated traditional stone farm building of 60m2 interior space, in a beautiful, quiet spot just five hundred metres down an earthen track to the magnificent Saravari Beach.
Overview
Saravari Beach is one of the best of the many beaches to be found on Limnos. It is in northeastern Limnos between the two major archaeological sites of Ifaestos and Kaveiria, near to the village of Kontopouli. On the beach is an excellent taverna with parasols and sun beds; also, a school for windsurf, as well several kilometres of quiet unspoilt sea and sand. Nearby is the famous Keros Beach favoured by kite surfers. Ataraxia is just 500 meters down a dirt track through fields and pastures to Saravari Beach.
The house Ataraxia has been fully renovated and furnished to the highest quality in traditional style by excellent local stonemasons and carpenters. It marries traditional style with all modern comforts, including free wifi, and Nespresso.
The house features two air-conditioned bedrooms each with a full en suite bathroom and a walk through closet, a large all purpose kitchen, dining, lounge area, and a spacious, shaded, quiet, very private courtyard for cooking and dining outdoors, for sun-bathing, lounging, relaxing.
We will be delighted to welcome you to this peaceful place, surrounded by fields and pastures. On our small farm live a horse, donkeys, chickens, a couple of pigs and sheep, cats and dogs. You will get to meet everybody, and to try our home grown produce.

Great Location , hosts are extremely polite and attentive, Mark was very helpful in every aspect! Everything was perfect.
Tip Top! Would definitely recommend!!!
Vrasidas 10 fantastic days in Limnos and particular in Ataraxia!!! 2 amazing hosts, Marc and Andre made us feel at home from the very first moment. When we arrived we we were warmly welcomed with a detailed description of the house and all amenities. In the very well equipped kitchen, we found butter, milk, wine, beer, tsipouro, local cheese, olive oils, yogurt, eggs from their henhouse, tomatoes from their garden, homemade jams, honey, local bread... The house is better than in the pictures, very clean, cool with ceiling fans and air conditioning in every room, screens in every window. The furniture was new, beautiful and comfortable, the beds and covers were wonderful and small artistic touches made the spaces wonderful. Both bathrooms were bright, very clean, functional and the hot water was there for 24 hours. The private yard was beautiful. Surrounded by plants, with 4 armchairs, a sitting area for dining, sun loungers and a cane shade, it made the courtyard a place for the whole day... But what makes Ataraxia really special is the two hosts: Marc and Andre. Living permanently for more than a decade on the island of Limnos, they have built their house and property with a lot of love and passion and this reflects on their guests who stay in Ataraxia which is located next to their field. Mark is a mobile island database with information about beaches, places to eat, everything you may need. Andre, a chef cuisinier des grandes tables genevoises, you can imagine the result with the amazing fresh raw materials of the island !!! Fantastic island, fantastic location, fantastic house, fantastic hosts!! Une expérience inoubliable !!! Thank you !!!
Great, quiet and clean place. The decor is very tasteful. Great hosts. Highly recommend the property. We were picked up and dropped off from the airport and got delicious vegetables from the garden. Everything was fine!
Best place and owners Left on Dec 27, 2019 for a stay in Aug 2019 Highly recommend this place! We had the most wonderful vacation staying in Ataraxia- 2 adults and 1 child. The pictures just can’t show all the cozy feeling inside and nature beauty around. The hospitality of the owners was outstanding! We were welcomed even late in the evening, with table full of fresh fruits, cakes, local homemade bread, jars with jam, coffee and all you need. Our child was the happiest little guy, seeing the garden with home grown vegetables, the donkey, chickens, pigs etc. Can’t wait to visit Ataraxia villa again and our new friends there!

We live next door to Ataraxia so we will always be on hand if you need help, and we will be delighted to share a cup or glass of something with you whenever you wish. We will also respect and conserve your privacy and independence if you do not wish to be disturbed. We have a very small farm with chickens, donkeys, a horse, and also a few pigs and sheep depending on the time of year. We grow all of our own produce, and try to be as self-sufficient as possible. We will gladly show you everything, and also provide you with fresh vegetables from the garden whenever possible. Andre and I have been living here in Saravari for 10 years now. We both had long careers in the hotel and restaurant business in France and Switzerland before semi-retiring to this wonderful peaceful island that we first visited for a holiday back in 1996.
