DESCRIPTION

Laka Zeza is a place far away from the mass tourism, a clearing surrounded by a vast pine forest facing the Corinth Gulf, where the coast discloses small deserted bays, creeks, beaches framed by pine trees, olives trees, almond trees. A paradise on earth one hour and a half away from Athens.

The first impression hitting the arriving traveller is the unexpected and vivifying impact with the nature. The variegated green of the forest, the vivid blue of the sky and the sea, the singing of the wind and the balm crickets dominate the untamed scene.

The infrastructures of the housing complex, all whitened by limestone, have that timid appearance typical of an educated minority.

The lack of traffic, of electric power, and the urban environment dresses Laka Zeza with an ancient clothing in which it is easy to identify that hidden part of our self going back to the poetical world of infancy.

The sea is reached by a 250 metres path, crossing through the wood and suddenly opening onto a large beach of white pebbles, sand and rocks, nearly always deserted. The entire coast is aligned with small bays, creeks and lonely beaches just waiting to be discovered by you..

Laka Zeza is the perfect place to spend an “old fashion” holiday: days regulated by the rhythm of nature, evenings illuminated by candles and gas lamps, organic vegetables and spices grown in our vegetable patch. During the summer months old friends and new guests find in this place a return to the simplest and deepest values of life.
The typical day begins in the morning with a breakfast of home made products: homemade jam from our fruit, honey, cakes, puddings, biscuits and yogurt. There are no forced activities or plans to follow; the only rule is to forget the city life.

You can decide to take a walk, relax, socialise with the other guests, swim in the clear waters, explore the seashore with canoes, or collect aromatic grasses. A basket with sandwiches, vegetables and fruit is prepared every morning for the guests. Dinner is taken all together around the main table, at sunset. The evening continues with bowls tournaments, isolated readings, discussions, all washed down with the white wine and other products from our “bar”.

The house organisation enables the guests to think exclusively of their own relaxation, without the necessity of preparing meals or choosing of restaurants, and in general to the daily routines and incumbencies.
