Location
Palailoni
Great properties for sale, including houses and villas, in Palailoni.
Palailoni is a small village whose name comes from the old threshing circle: “Palaio” meaning old, and “Aloni” referring to the threshing circle that once stood in the area. A zig-zag road leads down to the rocky cove, which is a perfect spot for snorkeling.
The nearest beaches, including the cove at Octopus Bay (Omprogialos) and the sandy shores of Almyrida, Kalyves, and Georgioupolis, are just a short drive away, offering a great combination of peaceful village life and easy access to the coast.
