DOING OUR PART TO PROTECT
THE DESTINATIONS
WE KNOW & LOVE

We have always been committed to championing initiatives that protect and conserve the environment. While each villa team manages their own impact and systems directly, Villa Collective is dedicated to building a sustainable future and we lead by example.

Entering the third year of our partnership with Yvon Chouinard’s 1% For The Planet initiative, we are proud to donate 1% of our yearly profit towards the preservation and restoration of the natural world.

ALBANIA OVERBOARD

Our Founder, Nick, is the proud co-creator of Albania Overboard, an annual charity swimming race from Albania to Corfu that raises funds for local marine conservation.

The Villa Collective team organises, sponsors, and manages the event, often monitoring up to 100 swimmers in the water. To date, we have raised 160,000 EUR for key Ionian conservation projects, from protecting Posidonia seagrass meadows to monitoring bottlenose dolphins.

Greece: The Ultimate Summer
In Greece, you can retrace thousands of years of footsteps with sandy toes and set sail into azure waters on your own lustful voyage of discovery. You can seek out pure pleasure in mouth-watering dishes at a waterfront taverna, where recipes are passed down through generations and wine glasses are kept full with the flavours of local grapes. The Mediterranean comforts of sun, sand, and warm hospitality are to be uncovered everywhere you go. It’s morning coffee and freshly baked bread on a soft white sofa at your sumptuous sea-facing villa—the warm sand just a short stroll away down your own private path, the shade of ancient olive groves guiding your way. Each of these glorious moments would be all it takes to fall deeply in love with the ever-alluring Greece. Experience them together, and you may never want to leave.
