About this trip...

Home to dense pine forests, dramatic white cliffs, and some of the Mediterranean’s most beautiful beaches, Lefkada is a true Greek gem in the Ionian Sea. This is a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic taste of traditional island life; beyond the stunning coastline, you’ll find scenic mountains, hidden waterfalls, and a network of walking, hiking, and cycling routes that offer far more than a typical beach holiday.

Our popular property in the vibrant village of Nidri is reserved entirely for Solos guests. Unlike large, anonymous resorts, you’ll be surrounded by a community of 100% like-minded travellers in an intimate setting that feels more like a private club. Picture idyllic white-pebble bays, emerald waters dotted with sailboats, and a charming seafront promenade—all enjoyed with the luxury of a guaranteed sunbed and the personal attention of our local hosts. With the freedom of a Bed & Breakfast base, you have the ultimate flexibility to be as social or independent as you like. Whether sharing stories over sunset drinks or exploring the promenade’s tavernas, you’ll experience the warm, welcoming atmosphere that makes a Solos Exclusives holiday a true Greek idyll.

Lefkada Solos Exclusive

Exclusive Property: Our ‘Ionian Paradise’

Exclusive Property: Our ‘Ionian Paradise’

Traditionally Greek in style and set amongst pretty gardens offering privacy from the hustle and bustle of the village outside, the hotel could not be further from the large cookie-cutter resorts found elsewhere in Greece. Every room is unique and split between two distinct blocks – one traditional, and the other more modern with newly upgraded facilities. The pretty breakfast area extends out onto the terrace, allowing for breakfast to be enjoyed overlooking the pool and surrounded by the scent of the bougainvillea blossoms. Speaking of the pool, it's reserved just for Solos guests and is the perfect spot to cool off after a morning exploring the stunning island of Lefkada.
  • The Personal Touch: Our hosts and your Solos Tour Leader provide a level of genuine Greek hospitality and undivided, personal attention that only a boutique, family-run property can offer. You’ll be treated like family from the moment you arrive.
  • The Perfect Base: Enjoy the luxury of our private pool area and pretty gardens, reserved 100% for our group, or take a gentle stroll to the sandy shores of Nidri. It’s a peaceful sanctuary designed for those who want to truly switch off without feeling isolated.
  • Evening Vibes: The small hotel bar is the heart of the social scene—perfect for catching up with new friends over drinks. With three included dinners at local tavernas, you’ll enjoy an authentic, atmospheric experience getting to know your fellow travellers over delicious Ionian cuisine.

Step outside the tranquillity of the hotel and you'll find yourself right in the heart of the lively village of Nidri. A short walk (we’re talking under a minute) and you’ll find yourself on the main shopping street, and the coastal promenade is just a few steps further on.

Is a Solos Exclusive right for you?

Is a Solos Exclusive right for you?

Our Solos Exclusives trips are our most popular holiday style—small by design and reserved entirely for our guests. You won’t be "one of the only" solo travellers in a big resort; you’ll be part of a small group of 100% like-minded individuals in a property that is exclusively ours.

Who a Solos Exclusives is for:

  • The First-Timer: Perfect if you’re looking to dip your toe into the world of group travel without the "what-ifs."

With an experienced Tour Leader on-site to ensure everything runs smoothly, you get the security of a group holiday with the total freedom to spend your time exactly how you want.
  • The Social Soul: For those who want the "buzz" of a group but the sanctuary of their own space. You’ll find a warm, easygoing atmosphere by the pool and plenty of opportunities to swap stories over local wine, all while enjoying the comfort of a private studio with no single supplement.
  • The Explorer: For travellers who want the freedom to choose between a quiet morning with a book, a hike to hidden waterfalls, or a boat trip to explore the islets of the Ionian Sea. You have total flexibility—join every optional excursion or simply enjoy the peace of the beach. You don't just have to lie around the pool (unless you want to!).
  • The Authentic Traveller: Ideal if you prefer intimate, family-run hotels over large, anonymous chains. Our hosts at Ionian Paradise offer a home-away-from-home feel, providing the kind of personal, heartfelt service you only find in a boutique Greek retreat.
The Location: Nidri

The Location: Nidri

The main shopping street is where you’ll find an array of gift shops, restaurants and coffee bars, as well as essentials including supermarkets, a pharmacy and the post office. Heading along the main coastal promenade, you’ll find more restaurants, bars, a disco and a wine cellar; with everything right on your doorstep. You’ll also find the main marina area of the resort with its array of sail boats and sightseeing boats, all just a couple of minutes’ walk from the hotel. The palm tree-lined seafront promenade is the perfect spot for sitting with a cold glass of wine and watching the world go by, or for hopping on a boat trip to explore more of the island of Lefkada, and the numerous islets adorning this part of the Ionian Sea. Take a stroll around the seafront and you’ll find the statue of Aristotle Onassis. The famous shipping tycoon purchased the nearby island of Skorpios is 1963 and wed Jackie Kennedy there in 1968, before spending many family holidays on the island (as well as holding many high-profile parties). You can book a boat trip to see the island up-close.

Nidri is dotted with pretty shingle bays and beach bars - buy a drink at one of these bars and they’ll let you use their sunbeds free of charge, or just take your beach towel and pick your spot on the shore. If you’re feeling energetic. you can head along to the water sports centre and hire a jet ski or sea canoe to explore the coast, or for the adrenaline junkies, there are banana boats, water skiing and parasailing options.

More to Explore

If you’re looking for sun and relaxation, with a sprinkling of the hustle and bustle of traditional Greek island life, Lefkada hits the spot. But what is really unique about this Solos Exclusive offering is having the option to do so much more than simply eating, drinking and relaxing in the sun – although that does sound just fabulous! The location is spectacular – a quaint seaside village with a bustling marina and sea views, mountain backdrops, lush green islets, olive groves and nearby fishing villages to explore. Hire a bicycle or e-bike and enjoy the picturesque cycling routes around the island, or don your hiking shoes and head into the mountains, following steady or more challenging routes and taking in stunning island views and majestic waterfalls.

Visit a local taverna and enjoy a traditional Greek meal and there are also wine tasting opportunities at the local wine cellar, and if you’re a beach lover you can explore some of the finest beaches in the Mediterranean. From pristine sands and glistening pebbled coves to sea caves and dramatic cliffs – we recommend taking a boat trip to the west coast and spending a day beach-hopping. The island’s capital and port, Lefkada City (city by name, small, traditional town by nature), is around a 30-minute taxi drive away and is home to cobbled shopping streets, 17th century churches, quaint squares and a number of small, yet fascinating, museums. Walk the town promenade to the lagoon, a bird-watching hotspot, or the Agia Mavra fort dating back to 1300 AD.

Wonderful

My holiday in Lefkada was wonderful. The location of the hotel is faultless, just one minute from the Main Street where you find shops restaurants and cafes. The resort has a really friendly feeling and the locals are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. (...)

Super 2 weeks with a basic but very clean accommodation, attractive pool area and great staff. The hotel is only 5 minutes from the sea front where there is a great selection of bars tavernas and cocktail bars. A laid back atmosphere with a family vibe. (...) I recommend this holiday

Mike

Expertly run

Ionian Paradise is located 5 mins walk from the main street in Nidri, populated with shops, bars and restaurants. Another 5 mins beyond that is the seafront with more lavish restaurants and bars. (...) It has a small pool with chairs and sunbeds, plus another covered area where guests can eat breakfast or grab a drink. (...)

Tourist Tax
  • Climate Crisis Resilience Tax  – €2.00 per night, payable locally
Gratuities
There is often confusion on the question of gratuities, since it frequently depends on the type of holiday, location and, of course, your attitude towards tipping, as to what is normally expected. In order to give you a rough idea, we have given appropriate guidance below. Your Tour Leader will be on hand to offer advice or suggestions if required but gratuities are offered entirely at the sole discretion of the individual. We suggest a group collection to cover drivers, porters and hotel staff of €25.00 per week. 
 
Your Tour Leader will collect this on your behalf and distribute it accordingly, thus relieving you of the burden of who, when and how much to tip. The tipping of housekeeping will be left to your individual discretion (a small amount left in your room on departure should cover this and would be much appreciated). As is customary, ‘the hat’ will be passed around for the driver and guide on all optional excursions. For any meals that are not included in your itinerary, or taxi fares, your Tour Leader can advise of an appropriate % add on.
Dress Code
Casual, cotton, lightweight daytime wear is the order of the day. Comfortable shoes are a must for sightseeing. Smart casual clothes are ideal for the evening. Early and late season evenings can be cool so do ensure that you take a cardigan or jacket and even some rainwear – particularly in May and June when you may experience some spring thunderstorms followed by scorching days!
