Yup, that private pool is all yours. And that really is the next-level sea view from the vast terraces of this villa, perched above the dazzling bay of Barbati.
Stretching from Corfu Town up to the Albanian mainland in the distance, the panoramas are on show from all angles here. Whether you’re bobbing about in the aqua-blue pool, sun-worshipping on the rooftop terrace leading off the bedroom, or relishing a lazy Mediterranean meze lunch beneath the shade of the alfresco dining area. And if you’re impressed now, wait until sunset – that’s a memory right there.
Inside, while the pared-back interiors of this newly-built home won’t be winning any design gongs anytime soon, everywhere feels gloriously clutter-free and pristine. And extended family or friends will love the sense of space, with bedrooms set apart over the two floors and each with its own bathroom.
When it’s time for a dose of sea air, there’s no need to bother loading up your car each day here. With the smooth pebble shores of Barbati Beach just 400 metres away and the resort’s shops, cocktail bars, and restaurants even closer, you couldn’t dream up a better location if you tried.
