Make yourself at home in this stunning clifftop villa overlooking Corfu's picturesque coastline, including Mouse Island (which, according to mythology, is Ulysses' ship that Poseidon stoned), Vlacherna Monastery and the glistening blue hues of the Ionian Sea. Step inside this two-storey villa and discover a haven of relaxation decorated in soothing neutral tones. The ground floor is an open-plan space with a compact kitchen, six-seater dining table and a sumptuous corner sofa set around a rustic coffee table and adobe-style fireplace. Two sets of sliding doors lead directly out to the poolside patio – an idyllic spot to while away sunny afternoons beneath cloudless Corfu skies. Head upstairs, and you'll find a couple of spacious en-suite bedrooms where you can lounge on the chaise-longue or enjoy a quiet moment out on the balcony. If you're feeling active, there are plenty of in-resort facilities at your fingertips, including a couple of tennis courts, an indoor pool, a spa and even a private beach, accessed by a funicular. Away from the resort, Corfu's Unesco-recognised old town is just 6km away. While away more time than you bargained for, wandering the backstreets and alleys, taking in beautiful Venetian architecture and the Old Fortress. Golfers can head 17km to Corfu Golf Club – designed by Donald Harradine in the late 70s – it's one of Europe's hidden gems.

Local guide


About Corfu Town

The captivating capital of the island, Corfu Town is a cosmopolitan destination that’s best known for its colourful streets and vibrant atmosphere. Here, the sea breeze carries the sublime scent of pressed olives, crushed kumquats, and the wild oregano that blankets the city’s surrounding hills. The Venetians set up shop here back in the 14th century, and that can still be seen in the pastel-coloured Venetian architecture that still remains...
