Serifos
Villa Caligo
A rare waterfront retreat where gardens, guest houses, and remarkable gathering spaces bring family and friends together by the sea.
The House
Positioned directly above the shoreline at Karavi, Villa Caligo is one of those increasingly rare houses where the sea becomes part of everyday life. Gardens and terraces unfold towards the water, outdoor living spaces embrace the coastline, and the rhythm of each day is shaped by swimming, gathering, and time spent outdoors.
The property is arranged as a small collection of independent buildings connected by gardens and communal spaces. This layout creates a natural balance between privacy and togetherness, allowing families and groups of friends to spend time together without sacrificing their own space.
At the heart of the villa sits a remarkable professional marble kitchen designed for cooking, entertaining, and bringing people together. From leisurely breakfasts to celebratory dinners, it naturally becomes one of the most lived-in spaces of the house.
What we love most about Caligo is the relationship between house, garden, and sea. Few properties combine such direct waterfront living with generous communal spaces and the convenience of being within walking distance of Livadi.

Interior
Gathering Around the Kitchen
The interiors are simple, generous, and designed around shared living. At the centre of the house sits the professional marble kitchen, a beautifully executed space that naturally draws people together throughout the day.
Stone walls, natural materials, and bright interiors create an atmosphere that feels relaxed and welcoming rather than formal. Living spaces remain closely connected to the outdoors, allowing the sea and landscape to remain a constant presence throughout the property.
Exterior
Gardens by the Sea
Few houses on Serifos enjoy such a direct relationship with the water. Terraces, gardens, olive trees, and outdoor living spaces descend towards the coastline, creating a setting that feels inseparable from the sea itself.
Outdoor dining areas, shaded sitting spaces, and gathering terraces encourage guests to spend entire days outside, moving naturally between swimming, meals, conversation, and moments of quiet overlooking the water.

Every corner of the villa is designed to be lived in and enjoyed, creating a relaxed retreat particularly well suited to families and groups who appreciate the slower rhythm of island life. The property does not have a swimming pool; instead, its defining feature is its direct waterfront setting, with the sea forming an immediate and constant presence throughout the property and becoming the natural focus of daily life.
One of the villa's great pleasures is the ability to walk into Livadi via the coastal path through Livadakia Beach, gradually arriving into the heart of the local community with its tavernas, cafés, and everyday island life. The route is scenic, easy to enjoy, and particularly appealing for teenagers or guests who prefer not to rely entirely on a car during their stay.

The Destination
Serifos
Untouched in spirit, Serifos offers a more elemental experience of the Aegean. Its landscapes feel open and expansive, its beaches unstructured and free. Time softens here, giving way to a rhythm that is slower, quieter, and intentionally removed from the obvious.
