Our View

An ultra-luxurious villa, on a blissful wooded headland, this is a chic and unique house, perfect for special gatherings. The views from the exceptional swimming pool are serene and sublime.

Why we love it

  • The courtyard is complete with ancient olive trees and a daybed.
  • A network of beautiful pathways leads down to a secluded pebble beach and jetty.
  • The cinema room and sauna offer relaxing ways to end the day.

Superbly designed to incorporate traditional Corfiot features, the island’s Venetian influences, and twenty first century comfort, this luxury villa has spacious living areas on several levels, indoors and out, all touched with a sense of romance, character and style. Italianate stone columns and archways link chic sitting and dining rooms with their huge and elegant al fresco counterparts. Two ancient olive trees are the centrepiece of a beautifully formed courtyard, furnished with an intricately carved daybed, and calmed with the scent of lavender and the trickle of water from a giant clam shell.

Within the house, a cinema room, gym, sauna and steam room complement the seven bedrooms; and concierge, housekeeper and chef services (inclusive for 2019) add an extra level of luxurious leisure. Outside, a stunning infinity pool overlooks the sea, served by a lavish pool house, and a network of pathways lead to a pebble beach and to a jetty shared with sister-villa, Atolikos House. This idyllic retreat is just fifteen minutes on foot from Kassiopi.

About the area

Kassiopi & Kelia

Average weather

Capital of Corfu’s north-east, Kassiopi is a thriving harbour and resort. Within a ring of souvenir and beach shops, it has a heart of gold: a cleanly-paved harbour, well-tended gardens, benches for the weary, and smart shops, restaurants, and cafés. Pleasure craft and cruise boats jostle for mooring space with small trawlers. Canons point out to sea, their threat long faded, against a backdrop of stylish Kassiopi villas and apartments rising in terraces from the harbour. A holiday in the hamlet of Kelia lies on the hillside above, within walking distance of the town.

Flights

We are delighted to offer our Corfu CV Charter flight from London Gatwick. With dedicated check-in and convenient flight times that combine well with tenancy times, we recommend flying on our Charter flight. We can also organise flights from other London and regional airports to suit your requirements, which you can book online or over the phone with one of our Villa Specialists.

Car Hire 

Car hire can be pre-booked through CV Villas with collection at the airport or port of arrival, and in some cases the hire car can be delivered to the villa for an additional charge. Please ask for details.

boat Hire 

There is no better way to explore the coastline and discover deserted bays and coves with their translucent water to add to the overall enjoyment of your holiday. Small boats and speedboats can be pre-booked with our UK office prior to departure and we recommend early reservations, especially in July and August, as availability is limited. Smaller size boats can still be hired without a licence which remains unchanged.
