Why Avlaki is different
North-east Corfu has no shortage of villas with a pool and a sea view. What Avlaki Beachfront Villa offers is harder to find: a genuinely beachfront position on a quiet Blue Flag beach, and enough space to put twelve people up without anyone sleeping on a sofa.
- 🌊 True beachfront — you step out of the gate and you are on Avlaki.
- 🏊 Two private pools, one per villa, each in its own enclosed garden.
- 👨👩👧👦 Six bedrooms, four bathrooms — the bathroom count is what makes twelve people workable.
- 🍽️ A taverna next door, close enough to walk to and far enough not to be heard.
- 🏓 Table tennis, basketball hoop, barbecue — the things a group actually uses.
- ⛵ Watersports on the doorstep — windsurfing, sailing, boat hire and horse riding all at Avlaki.
Two villas, one booking
This is the detail that decides whether the property suits you. The two houses stand side by side and are let only as a whole — they cannot be rented separately. When you book, you get both.
For three or four families travelling together, that is the whole appeal: shared pools and gardens by day, two entirely separate houses at night. For a group of six it means paying for twelve beds’ worth of space.
🏠 Inside each villa:
- 🛏️ 3 bedrooms — one double, two twin
- 🚿 2 bathrooms
- 🍳 open-plan kitchen and living room
- ❄️ air conditioning throughout, satellite TV, WiFi
- 🌇 shaded balconies to the upstairs bedrooms
🌿 Outside each villa:
- 🏊 private pool, roughly 10 × 5 m
- 🌳 large enclosed garden
- 🍽️ covered outdoor dining, facing pool and sea
- 🔥 barbecue
- 🅿️ free parking
Layout within each house puts one twin bedroom and a bathroom at the rear, with a balcony over the garden, and two further bedrooms — one double, one twin — upstairs with shaded balconies and a second bathroom. Useful if you want the children on one floor and the adults on another.
Location: Avlaki, between Kassiopi and Agios Stefanos
Avlaki sits in the north-east corner of Corfu, in the stretch of coast between the lively harbour village of Kassiopi and the quieter fishing village of Agios Stefanos. It is a wide pebble bay with clear water, a Blue Flag for cleanliness, sunbeds and a couple of tavernas — and, by most accounts, it stays calm even in July and August.
| Point | Access | Note |
| Avlaki Beach | steps away | out of the gate and you are on the pebbles |
| Taverna next door | on foot | a guest notes it is close but never audible from the villa |
| Kassiopi centre | ~2 km | harbour, shops, restaurants — a short drive or a long walk |
| Agios Stefanos | short drive south | quieter fishing village, good for a change of scene |
| Watersports at Avlaki | on the beach | windsurfing, sailing, boat hire, horse riding |
| Corfu Airport | ~34 km | airport transfer and car hire available through the property |
What guests say
✅ Recurring themes in the reviews:
- the pool area and the position right by the sea
- both villas fully equipped, with views from the balconies
- tavernas next door without noise reaching the villa
- Lisa, the host, quick to answer and easy to deal with
“The pool area is superb and the location couldn’t be better” — Doug, group, June 2025, who also confirmed that both villas come with the booking.
“Spectacular view and beautiful beach” — Nicole, Ireland, October 2023, whose only complaint was not being able to stay longer.
The property is rated exceptional by guests, with top marks across every category. It is worth being clear, though, that this sits on a small number of reviews so far — a strong signal rather than a settled track record.
Worth knowing before you book
⚠️ The two villas cannot be rented separately. If your group is six rather than twelve, you are paying for a whole property you will only half use. That is the single most important thing to establish before you look at dates.
Two smaller points. Avlaki is a pebble beach, not sand — water shoes are worth packing for younger children. And the bay catches a northern breeze in the afternoon, which is exactly why windsurfers like it; it keeps the heat down, but do not expect glassy water every day. Housekeeping and linen changes are every other day rather than daily, and Kassiopi’s shops are around 2 km away, so a hire car makes the week easier.
A typical day at Avlaki
☀️ Morning: breakfast on the covered terrace, then straight out of the gate for a swim before the breeze picks up.
🏊 Midday: the pools, in the shade of the garden — one house each if the group has split into camps.
🍽️ Afternoon: lunch at the taverna next door, or the barbecue and table tennis if nobody wants to move.
🌅 Evening: the drive into Kassiopi harbour for dinner, and the Albanian mountains going pink across the channel on the way back.
Who is this villa for?
| If you are… | Verdict |
| Three or four families travelling together | ✅ This is what the property is built for — two houses, two pools, four bathrooms |
| A group marking a birthday or anniversary | ✅ A guest booked it for exactly that and would return |
| Wanting beach and pool without choosing | ✅ Beachfront, with two pools behind the gate |
| A family of four or a group of six | ⚠️ You cannot book one villa — compare the total against a smaller property |
| Travelling with toddlers who need sand | ⚠️ Avlaki is pebble; the water is clear but the entry is stony |
| Planning a week without a hire car | ❌ A taverna next door, but shops and Kassiopi are ~2 km away |
Frequently asked questions
Can you book just one of the two villas?
No. The two houses are let only as a single property and cannot be rented separately or partially. A guest who stayed with a group confirmed that you get both when you book. That makes it excellent value for a large party and poor value for a small one.
How many people does Avlaki Beachfront Villa sleep?
Up to twelve, across six bedrooms and four bathrooms — three bedrooms and two bathrooms in each villa. Each house has one double and two twin rooms, which is a flexible mix for families with children.
Is the pool private?
Yes, and there are two of them — one per villa, each in its own enclosed garden, roughly ten by five metres. Since you rent both houses, neither pool is shared with anyone outside your group.
What is Avlaki Beach like?
A wide pebble bay with clear water and a Blue Flag for cleanliness, with sunbeds and a couple of tavernas. It is one of the quieter beaches in north-east Corfu and stays that way even in high summer. An afternoon breeze off the north makes it popular for windsurfing and sailing.
Do you need a car?
It is strongly recommended. There is a taverna next door and watersports on the beach, but Kassiopi’s shops, restaurants and harbour are around 2 km away. Car hire and airport transfers can be arranged through the property.
How far is the villa from Corfu airport?
Roughly 34 km, in the north-east corner of the island. Allow around an hour with the coast road and traffic in season. The property offers airport transfers on request if you would rather not drive on arrival.
