There’s a gorgeous sandy beach nearby with lounge chairs and thatch umbrellas. There’s no pool or restaurant at Logothetis Farm, but there is free Wi-Fi and bicycle rentals. A more typical hotel option in Vasilikos is Bay Hotel & Suites, a modern property on the beach with a spa and an outdoor pool.
Scene
Olive trees, farm animals, and farmhouses
Angela and Dionysis Logothetis created a tranquil retreat by turning the old farmhouses on an olive farm into charming (if very no-frills) rentals with patios, pergolas, and hammocks. Guests can ride bicycles down the gravel paths while taking in the ocean views. The rustic farm still has animals, such as a donkey, cow, and chickens. Rabbits and cats can also be spotted roaming the sprawling property. A small shop selling products made on the farm has racks filled with wine bottles, olives in jars, and glass bottles full of olive oil. The farm also produces organic vegetables. There’s a gorgeous beach not far away, where guests can swim and lounge while taking in amazing views of the water framed by the grassy sand dunes. It's often a pick among non-fussy, budget-minded couples who appreciate the simple, unrefined vibe.
