Vasilikos Holidays

Nestled on a peninsula on the east coast of the island, Vasilikos is surrounded by spectacular natural beauty. Holidays in Vasilikos are ideal for those seeking a relaxing retreat. Vasilikos is more of a region than a resort, and is considered one of the most unspoilt, beautiful parts of the island. Visitors have access to the beautiful sandy beaches of Porto Zorro, Gerakas, Porto Roma and Banana.
