About this property
Located on the shores of Boukari Bay with views of Corfu Town, Villa Alexis offers modern amenities in a traditional Greek style. The property features a private pool and beach and can accommodate up to 8 guests of all ages. All accommodations are on a single level, making it accessible for children and those with mobility issues.
The living space is accessed from the centre of a flagstone terrace that overlooks the sea. The lounge is light-filled with large shuttered doors leading to the terrace, providing a cosy atmosphere when closed, especially when sitting by the large log fire in the evening. The kitchen, styled to complement the area’s traditional charm, includes a large dining area, though the outdoor setting may be preferred for meals. The villa has two double bedrooms (one with an ensuite and terrace access), a twin room, and a room with bunk beds for children, all tastefully furnished with ample storage.
There are also two additional bathrooms. The main bathroom features a large window to maximize sunlight while maintaining privacy, offering an opportunity for relaxation with a bath enhanced by rose petals from the garden and a glass of something bubbly.
The terrace includes a seating and dining area with large sofas and a tiled dining table under a pergola covered with grapevines. This space is ideal for enjoying breakfast in the early summer or fruit later in the season.
The private swimming pool set a few steps down from the terrace, is surrounded by loungers for sunbathing or shade under ancient olive trees.
The villa is part of a small complex that includes two additional villas and a 16th-century Orthodox chapel, all set within an olive grove of approximately 900 trees. These can be booked together for larger gatherings or events.
You will be mesmerised by the emerald sandy coves, multifarious consecutive bays with pebbles, crystal clear waters, and completely secluded beaches. Such idyllic places for romantics here in Agia Pelagia.
The area around Boukari bay is renowned for the fabulous traditional food served at the many small Tavernas dotted along the coastline, seafood being particularly exceptional. Rick Stein even featured this area on his Mediterranean Escapes programme; it must be special!
Agia Pelagia is in the unspoiled south of the island away from the main tourist spots. It has beautiful beaches, particularly if you pop across to the other side of the island, a mere 10 minutes by road will take you to perhaps the most beautiful beach on the island, Issos. Issos is particularly fabulous for water sports due to its slightly windier aspect than Boukari. Windsurfing and kitesurfing are very popular here, and it is a great spot for beginners should you want to try something new and adventurous right on your doorstep.
No trip to the south of Corfu would be complete without a trip to the beautiful postcard-perfect island of Paxos, Anti Paxos and the blue caves. Paxos has been voted one of the ten most beautiful islands in the world. Hire your own boat or book yourself a seat on an organised day trip.
After a hard day of sunbathing, water sports or visiting one of the many beautiful traditional villages, how wonderful it is to be able to kick back and relax at your delightful holiday villa listening to the water lapping the shore and taking in the twinkling lights of Corfu town across the bay.
