We have just returned from the most wonderful week in Paxos. Avlaki Bay House was peaceful and spacious and had the most stunning views and a gentle breeze which was welcome in the heat! We loved watching the butterflies on the flowers in the garden and the birds drinking from the infinity pool. Gaios was buzzing in the evening with lots of lovely bars, shops and restaurants. We hired a boat mid-week and had a fantastic day exploring the island and then going over to stunning Antipaxos for lunch and swims in crystal clear water! A very special holiday. Thank you.

We're leaving the magic of Avlaki Bay House after a week and are forever changed. We have had the MOST wonderful stay. The villa is the most perfect place we have ever been and we've loved every minute. Completely private, tranquil, beautiful, transformative! From singing karaoke around the floodlit pool while bats take the air to swimming and sunbathing to our heart's content, it's been HEAVEN.

Lily the host was so helpful and kind. The housekeepers care, always on time. In Paxos, the Coyne family found their bliss. A summer of moments not amiss.

The villa is in the most beautiful setting. Proper peace and tranquillity. Really delightful. You would never get tired of the view and watching the birds drinking from the fabulous infinity pool.

Wow! What a view! We've had a wonderful week introducing our daughters and their OH's to Paxos, and they love it as much as we do.

Stunning views is the unique selling point of this Villa, I don’t think I’ve seen a better one! Avlaki Bay house is comfortable for 8 people and well positioned to explore the island.

Great views, great pool and we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. We hired a boat for a couple of days, visited Anti-Paxos and went right round Paxos. Great memories.

First timers with Simpson Travel but will not be our last. All 6 of us found the staff in the office and in Paxos unbelievably helpful. Thank you all.

Wonderful to be back at Avlaki Bay House for a third time. We still keep discovering new things in Paxos as well as revisiting favourites.

Lovely Leona was our Paxos rep. and I can't praise her enough, she was local all week and at the end of the mobile 24/7 – she is a gem of an employee for Simpson!

We had a lovely return visit to Paxos and Avlaki Bay House. Just as peacefully restful as last year – possibly with even more wild flowers in bloom. We recommend trying all the tavernas and restaurants as the variety is great. If you love walking, get The Bleasdale Walking Map of Paxos. We explored all of Paxos and most of Anti Paxos on foot thanks to his highly detailed map and guide.

Another superb holiday through Simpson Travel for us again this year. We were looked after from start to finish.

Many thanks to the wonderful Simpson Travel reps Steph, Frances and David who gave us loads of tips on places to go and things to do and even lent us binoculars. Marvellous!

Second time in Paxos with Simpson Travel and another great week. The villa was wonderful. We loved the gorgeous views of the sea and the pool was great. So quiet and peaceful. Will definitely be coming back to Paxos, it's a truly special place! Thank you to Simpson Travel for an amazing week at this villa.

The car hire at Paxos was the best in the world, just a name on the windscreen! Bliss! Made a real difference after a long journey. Food on Paxos so much better than Corfu. Loved the island and the location of Avlaki Bay house was amazing.

Excellent service from all as ever, the boat strike was handled such that our journey to Paxos was a pleasure. It is so relaxing travelling with Simpson Travel because you know that everything will be taken care of in the most professional manner. Being welcomed back as old friends by the Paxos team on our arrival was really delightful. The little gift left for us prior to departure was a lovely touch. We much prefer the Heathrow Sunday flights. After years of travelling with you, it is refreshing to be able to say that your high standards have remained consistent. Simpson Travel has always got the big things right but it is their attention to the small details that sets them apart from other companies. We look forward to travelling back to Paxos with you in September.

A splendid week in the most delightful spot in Paxos. Thank you. We particularly loved watching the eagles and dolphins from the balcony. Snorkelling is fantastic here and we loved every taverna we visited. A wonderful holiday. Avlaki Bay on Paxos, lovely house, beautiful island. The attention to detail by Simpson Travel meant that this was one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had. Thank you.
