Arillas Bay To The Islands, Tranquil 1.5 Acre Un-Overlooked Hillside Setting, Wifi & Car Included

Our management company is owned by Simon and Maxine who were responsible for the entire construction project that became this superb villa. Having deigned and built and number of villas they ensured that Villa Ionia caters to just about every need. Maxine will usually meet you at the house upon your arrival to see you in and explain how everything works. She will of course have arranged a welcome hamper which we can tailor to suit. Simon and Maxine have lived in Corfu for many years, are fluent in Greek and therefore have un-paralleled local knowledge. Villa Ionia is air-conditioned throughout and your rental price includes this.

Arillas is perfectly placed about three quarters of the way up the north west coast. It arguably enjoys the most spectacular sunsets on the island, enhanced by the three Diapontian islands on Ericoussa, Othoni an Mathraki. This North West corner of Corfu has thankfully seen far less tourism than the East and South of the island. Agriculture still plays an important part of the locals lives so despite the beautiful views from Villa Ionia it occupies an idyllic semi rural hillside location. The seas in this area are particularly clean contributing to Arillas's blue flag sandy beach. Corfu or Kerkyra as it is known as in Greece is one of seven principal Ionian islands and is located partly off the North West corner of mainland Greece and just one mile at the closest point to Albania. The region enjoys long hot summers and mild winters. Temperatures in May for example generally reach the late 20's and move well into the 30's throughout June, July, August in into September. During May and September the ionian Islands are awash with floral colour. Corfu, like much of Greece has its historical routes in the ancient times. In more recent centuries the island has been ruled by many nations including, France, Russia and Britain. But it was the Venetians who left their mark most prominently. In fact Corfu town itself strongly resembles Venice (without the Gondolas and waterways) and as such is simply a must see place to visit. Corfu has been the subject of many books, paintings and stunning photography and of course a choice location for many film and television productions including the Bond feature 'For Your Eyes Only' and My Family and Other Animals. With its dramatic landscapes, turquoise and azure seas, and blanket forestation of around six million olive trees interspersed with cypress pines, the Greek Island of Corfu is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful places in the Med and indeed in Europe.
