Halkidiki escape

Luxurious villa with pool, private beach, and stunning views of Lagomandra. Design and comfort by Gessi

Ideally located in Halkidiki (Chalkidiki Peninsula), 8 km from the village of Neos Marmaras, Dikoarch is a holiday home nestled in an ancient olive grove on a pristine promontory, next to the beautiful Lagomandra beach.

The property consists of two buildings. The first is a two-story apartment with a living area, dining area, and equipped kitchen on the ground floor, while the spa area, gym, and cinema room are located in the basement. The second building houses the master bedroom on the upper floor and two further en-suite bedrooms on the ground floor. A second, separate and independent apartment located in the basement has two bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen. 

While every room offers breathtaking views of the sea and Kelifos Island, the outdoor spaces truly set the scene.  A 120 sqm heated pool, a roof garden with 360-degree vistas of the sea and forest, an outdoor lounge area with a fireplace and Jacuzzi, and the beach all combine to create an idyllic setting. Here, the Gessi Spotwater outdoor collection, with its sculptural form and “woven metal” decoration, reinterprets the look and function of the showerhead.  The Private Wellness area thus acquires a practical and distinctive element, capable of breaking the mold.

 For the villa’s bathrooms, the Gessi316 collection was chosen, featuring the “woven metal” Trame decoration. Inspired by high jewelry and its standards of excellence, it highlights the masterful craftsmanship with which Gessi has “dressed the steel”.
