Villa Althea

Boasting an abundance of natural beauty, stunning beaches and a vivid nightlife, Corfu is probably the most famous Greek island attracting thousands of visitors every year. The “beautiful and rich land” of Homer is a paradise of poetic landscapes and culture. Its strategic position made it vulnerable to foreign conquestors. As a result, a blend of the Venetian, British and French cultures was integrated to the Greek identity. These western influences are prominent in the island’s architecture. Villa Althea is at 4 km from Kassiopi, a charming, little resort village a short drive from Corfu Town, in the north part of this marvelous Ionian island. Its countless sandy beaches, watersports clubs, traditional tavernas serving mouth-watering local dishes and lively nightclubs have turned it into an extremely attractive destination, ideal for all ages. In between the Ionian Sea and Mount Pantokrator, the natural scenary is unique and will leave you breathless. What better setting for some trekking or an outing on horseback? A well-equipped equestrian club can be found at 3 km from the property.   Although the villa enjoys a privileged isolated position, it is only 5-10 minutes drive from many characteristic seaside villages such as Aghios Stephanos, Avlaki and Kerasia. Corfu town (22 km) seems like a fresco painting that has come to life. Liston’s elegant arcades hang over the marble paved square where the locals gather for a cup of coffee or a drink. The old part, with its special design and quiet, narrow roads is the biggest preserved medieval town in Greece. Due to the position of our fantastic property, we highly recommend hiring a car and get to explore its beauties!
