About this property

Villa Panayia - large private villa with pool and amazing sea and sunset views

Welcome to Villa Panayia!


One of the largest villas on the north-west coast of Corfu, Villa Panayia has the most spectacular sea views from all rooms. It overlooks the panoramic bay of Agios Georgios to the south and benefits from the stunning sunset view over Arillas and islands beyond - a mesmerising and unforgettable scene that will stay with you long after your holidays.

This spacious villa (2583sq ft / 240m2) is spread over 3 floors with 4 double/twin bedrooms each with their own large separate bathroom and balcony. Features include air conditioning in bedrooms, WiFi throughout, well-equipped kitchen, and separate indoor and outdoor dining areas all with amazing views. For families we do have cots available and an additional single 'z-bed'.

The villa is a short distance from both Arillas and Agios Georgios beaches. It is located near the cliff top village of Afionas, reputed to be one of the prettiest villages of Corfu. Arillas beach is a fantastic sandy beach with shallow water ideal for families with young children. Agios Georgios has crystal clear waters and is one of the most beautiful crescent bays on the whole of Corfu.

This is a family owned villa and we as a family have been coming to Corfu for the last 45 years. Over the years we have visited 40 other Greek islands and felt this location in Corfu was the perfect place to build our villa. We enjoy exploring all over the Island but always conclude the mix of fantastic beaches, dramatic scenery, numerous hiking trails, friendly locals and great selection of family-run tavernas contribute to the wonderful ambience of our local area.

There is also a very well stocked supermarket and fruit/vegetable shop 1km from the villa.

Corfu airport is approximately 35km from the villa (about 50 minutes drive). Private transfer is possible however car hire is recommended if you want to explore the local area and beyond.

Exterior:

• To the west side of our villa is a spacious outdoor terrace with an infinity pool overlooking Arillas and the islands beyond. There are comfortable sun loungers and table and chairs where you can relax on the quiet pool terrace. In the evening, you can enjoy the breathtaking sunset views.
• To the east side of our villa is an outdoor dining terrace with extensive BBQ, pergola and comfortable seating area overlooking the gorgeous Agios Georgios and the mountains beyond. You can also enjoy breakfast on the first floor terrace as the sun rises over the distant mountain of Pantokrator.
• There is ample parking space for numerous cars.

Interior:

• 4 bedrooms – There are 2 spacious twin bedrooms and 1 double bedroom on the ground floor and 1 twin bedroom on the second floor (we call it the ‘honeymoon’ suite!). Each room has its own en-suite bathroom / shower and good size private furnished balcony. You will be able to see all the individual rooms in the photos together with a picture of their en-suite bathroom.
• Kitchen – The modern kitchen is on the first floor and is well equipped with microwave, oven with ceramic glass hob, fridge/freezer, toaster, kettle, cutlery/crockery, cooking pots/pans.
• Dining room & lounge. The kitchen opens to a large dining area space with floor to ceiling windows again benefitting from the sea views. Beyond that is a comfortable lounge area featuring high-vaulted traditional ceiling.
• Separate 1st floor shower-room/toilet.
• Shelving with selection of books/family games.
• Children facilities - A cot, children mattresses and high chairs can be provided at your request.
• Utility room – Washing machine and ironing board.
• Bathroom towels and linen are provided.

This is a strictly non-smoking villa.

A Perfect Week
Eight of us went for a very special week in Corfu and the villa was amazing. The photos online really do not do it justice - it is lovely in everyway. Claire our 'housekeeper' was fantastic, any queries/requests we had she sorted promptly including organising a fabulous lady to come to the villa to administer massages, heaven. We ate at the villa some nights and went down to Arillas on others. I am confident we will return to this wonderful place. A big thankyou to Claire in Corfu and Fiona in the UK for being so helpful and approachable in helping us to create our special week.

Amazing holiday
We have just returned from a fabulous holiday at Villa Panayia. A group of 2 families we had lots of space. The villa is exactly as per the pictures and the views are beautiful. There are 3 lovely beach resorts nearby with plenty of tavernas and small shops. Our favourite was the sandy beach at Arillas. Fiona was super helpful in answering any questions we had beforehand and accomodated our rebooking after my husband was ill - thank you. Claire who looks after the villa was fabulous and made sure we had everything we needed. Nothing was too much trouble. We arranged a transfer to the villa/airport with local company Arillas cars and they also dropped off and collected 2 hire cars for use during our stay. This was so easy and hassle free. We all had an amazing holiday and would highly recommend this villa to anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Fiona Brown

Host profile image
My husband (Adrian) and I have been visiting Corfu for 42years, and 12 years ago we started looking for our dream location on the island to build our family villa.

After travelling to some 40 Greek islands and all round Corfu we decided the location had to be on the North West coast as it is here that captures the traditional charms of Corfu and benefits from unrivalled sunrise to sunset views. We have found that not many villas actually have sunset views unless you are in the North West.

Together with my sons we started building Villa Panayia in 2007 and it was completed in 2014, having survived a change of builder, the financial crisis, one of our son's emigrating to Australia, the arrival of 4 grandchildren, and Adrian's retirement.

The original idea for the villa was to have somewhere the whole family can come together and share holiday time, we are pleased to say this original idea has now been achieved.

Why they chose this property

After 40 Greek islands and 42 years - THE VIEWS! They 'speak for themselves'.

What makes this property unique

Unique? The location. We bought a piece of paradise and feel privileged to 'own' this location and view especially when sitting in the infinity pool and seeing the setting sun dip into the sea behind distant islands toward Italy.
