A private island available to rent in Greece, named Pegassus Island, is undoubtedly one of the most luxurious holiday getaways in the entire world.
The stunning Cycladic island is tucked away in the gulf of Petalioi, in the region of Evia.
It is easily accessible from Athens using a number of different transportation options which will enable a swift departure from the heat of the capital city for those who are lucky enough to take advantage of it.
Pegassus island, which is rented out by Aria Hotels, has a number of very high-end facilities for guests. Visitors will be greeted with their own private villa, which can comfortably sleep 14-16 guests and can be outfitted to accommodate up to 22 people upon request.
The villa is elegantly decorated and comes with a hamper filled with seasonal and local gourmet delicacies to make guests feel right at home as soon as they arrive. The accommodation has multiple bedrooms which feature en-suite bathrooms and other desirable amenities.

The gorgeous accommodation available on Pegassus island is also surrounded by patios and shaded terraces for peaceful, cool areas to enjoy the one-of-a-kind Greek summer. Otherwise, guests can choose to lounge in the contemporary, open-plan kitchen and dining room or the living room, which even boasts a unique limestone fireplace for shoulder season use.
Other luxuries which allow for a stress-free vacation on the private island for rent in Greece include a daily complementary housekeeping service, on site staff and concierge services.
Additionally, guests can arrange for private chef services, pre-arrival grocery shopping, local transfers, massage treatments, helicopter services and boat rentals for a fee to guarantee the most lavish stay possible.
The beautiful island of Pegassus is nestled in the Aegean sea and can be accessed from the port of Rafina, near Athens.
Visitors who are flying in to Athens can be at the port of Rafina in less than 30 minutes and then have multiple options for getting to their own private slice of heaven.
A speedboat is available for bookings, which departs from Rafina and arrives at the private island within 30 minutes. Otherwise, visitors can opt to take a ferry to Marmari, a nearby fishermans wharf, which takes around an hour to get to from Rafina. Once there, visitors can expect to arrive at their private oasis in just 15 minutes.
Alternatively, a direct transfer from the port of Rafina to the island by helicopter can also be arranged. This mode of transport takes only 15-20 minutes and is definitely the scenic route, with the helicopter landing pad located just next to the villa.
One of the most incredible benefits of renting a private island in Greece is the optimal combination of privacy with an assortment of many different things to do to while away the days.
This perfect island getaway is surrounded by its own private beaches and coves with turquoise waters, perfect for the stylish and discreet traveler.

There are also multiple facilities available for visitors to partake in water sports, such as sea kayaks, water skis, and wake boards. Alternative water activities include windsurfing, snorkeling, diving and kite surfing gear, with instructors for professional personal training being available upon request.
The island also has multiple trails and paths for the more active visitor to enjoy as well.
Suitable for both hiking and biking, there are ten bicycles available on the property for both children and adults that can be used by guests at any time. These trails are perfect because they afford guests the ultimate in privacy while still preserving the sensation of being outdoors and in touch with the natural world.

If visitors wish to add even more things to do to their itinerary, yoga lessons, day trips to Athens, excursions with motorboats or sail boats and visits to other islands are all available upon request.
All in all, it seems clear that Pegassus Island, the private island for rent in Greece, is the most lavish and exclusive vacation spot available in the entirety of the country.
