Athena House is a comfortable villa, blending Corfiot and Venetian design, in beautiful grounds within an exclusive estate. A small secluded beach and a jetty (for boat mooring or sea bathing) are shared only with one other villa on the estate. Views take in Kaparelli Island, and the Albanian mountains across the sea, and Kassiopi is a short walk away.
A strong Venetian influence is complemented by traditional Corfiot features to create the ultimate in contemporary comfort. The living/dining room has tiled floors, a Corfiot stone fireplace, high beamed ceilings, and several sets of French doors that open onto the terrace. Two bedrooms and a well-equipped kitchen are on the first floor, and one is on the ground floor.
The sea views, the private pool, direct access to the sea from the jetty and more make this Corfu property one of the most sought-after villas for rent. French doors open onto an expansive terrace with a shaded dining area for eight, a barbecue and a separate open seating area with large outdoor sofas. Steps lead down to the infinity pool with sun loungers facing the Ionian Sea. Large terracotta amphorae and beds planted with Mediterranean shrubs, flowers and trees surround the terraces.
It offers a range of harbour tavernas, restaurants, bars, shops, and a relaxed nightlife. Cassina House is a 40-minute drive from Corfu Airport, or you can opt for a boat transfer that docks at the estate's jetty. Explore charming waterside tavernas and swim in secluded coves along the coast. The area also offers watersports and horse riding, and the stunning beaches of Avlaki (pebbles) and Kalamaki (sand) are easily accessible by car.
