The actress, known for her sophisticated screen presence, was spotted at a cocktail bar in the Gaios area, opting for a private table with two companions. Dressed in a flowy, light blue dress, she was reportedly all smiles and exceptionally friendly throughout her visit, a testament to her comfort and familiarity with the locale.
Kidman’s gateways to Paxos, the Maestro in Blue island
This isn’t Kidman’s first Greek sojourn; the Big Little Lies star has made regular getaways to Paxos, cementing its status as her preferred summer escape.
Paxos, a Greek island in the Ionian Sea, is the setting of Maestro in Blue, the first Greek series on Netflix that screened globally in March 2023. It is no surprise that the series creator, Christoforos Papakaliatis, decided on the particular island, as it boasts serene getaways, summer fun, links to ancient history, and cozy harbors perfect for exploring by boat.
Fans of the acclaimed series can rejoice, as the groundbreaking series, which captivated audiences, is reportedly returning for a new season.
Kidman reflects on a busy year on Paxos, Greece
Kidman’s present moments of tranquility come after an incredibly prolific period in her career. The past year, particularly 2024, saw her starring in multiple high-profile projects. She garnered significant attention for her role in the critically acclaimed Prime Video series Expats, which premiered earlier in 2024.
This was followed by the Netflix romantic comedy A Family Affair, in which she reunited with Zac Efron. She also captivated audiences in the mystery thriller series The Perfect Couple and the erotic thriller Babygirl, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival. Her work on Babygirl even earned her the Volpi Cup for Best Actress, though she was unable to collect the award due to the passing of her mother, Janelle.
Looking ahead, Kidman is slated to appear in Holland, a Prime Video thriller that premiered in March 2025 and has received positive buzz, as well as the highly anticipated second season of Hulu’s Nine Perfect Strangers, reprising her role as the enigmatic Masha Dmitrichenko. She’s also reportedly involved in upcoming projects such as Scarpetta and Margo’s Got Money Troubles.
On the personal front, Kidman continues to be one half of a long-standing Hollywood power couple with country music star Keith Urban. The couple recently celebrated their 19th wedding anniversary in June 2025, a rare milestone in the entertainment industry.
With such a demanding professional schedule and a celebrated personal life, it’s no wonder Nicole Kidman continues to seek out the idyllic tranquility of Paxos for her well-deserved breaks.
