Guests arrive through private electric gates and along a sweeping driveway, immediately captivated by the villa’s charm. The tropical gardens are simply stunning, with manicured lawns, mature palms, and bursts of Mediterranean colour leading to the exceptionally large swimming pool and surrounding sun terraces. High-quality sun loungers with mattress’s, parasols, and garden furniture make it an ideal space for long, lazy days in the sun.

The villa comfortably sleeps eight guests, making it ideal for families or small groups. From the spacious covered veranda, guests can enjoy beautiful views across to Corfu Town and the sea beyond, a perfect spot for al fresco dining or a cool, shaded lounge area during the warm summer months.

Full of warmth, history, and authentic island character, Villa Rossi is a delightful retreat where guests can unwind, explore, and enjoy a truly memorable Corfu holiday.

Family holiday

Exactly as described and more. We loved this holiday. We had everything we needed and our grandchildren loved the pool. The grill bar in the village, 5 mins walk away served good food and a trip into Benitses and Corfu town gave a generous choice of restaurants. The drive up to the villa is an adventure but doable and we managed to make friends with our neighbours dog Olly. We had a lot of support from the housekeeper, pool guy and gardener, and im sure if there had been anything wrong it would have been sorted immediately. No complaints just smiles all the way.

Spacious Elegant Villa in the hills

Enjoyed this villa very much. It is tucked away in a much older hilltop area near the achilleon palace. Some visitors have complained about the driveway and steepness but it was not a problem for us in a medium sized car. The floor plan is a little unusual with kitchen upstairs off the veranda and a sitting area downstairs. It worked well to give two couples some separation when needed. The veranda was spacious and airy with distant views north to Corfu town. Enjoyed the landscape. Quiet, and privacy. The private pool as a nice respite from the hordes at the beaches. Prestige villas fixed a plumbing issue with the water heater immediately when we called so we were very happy with them. Our only complaint is that the coffee maker was on its last legs, and kitchen knives were pretty poor for cooking. It was stocked with beer, wine, instant coffee and some snacks. We got ground coffee and clothes soap on our own. Walking through gastouri in the evening was beautiful. No other visitors around just us and the locals. Could not really walk to any tavernas in the evening. Perhaps closed due to COVID. Town of Benitses an easy drive down to the coast. O stratos we ate twice and was excellent. The owner of the villa was supposed to come and fix the TV service but he never showed. So we missed a few UCL matches - so what. All in all, we loved this place. Had a wonderful 6 night stay.

We had a really good stay at the villa. There is plenty of space outside and upstairs on the covered balcony. Good size pool. Villa is very conveniently located for getting anywhere else on the island. Property management was very helpful, gardeners friendly and efficient. Would recommend

Fabulous pool and amazing grounds which took our breath away!

Villa Rossi is a beautiful house and very big ( a bit too big for the two of us, but we couldn’t resist that pool! There was excellent air con in the bedrooms - very welcome as the temperature was in the mid 30’s. Our only disappointment really was with the kitchen which is very small for the size of the house. It is only minutes to drive to most places we needed to go to, and this is a great area to stay in. Everyone we met was extremely friendly, and we loved the waving and greetings from our elderly neighbours down the road! There are hornets by the pool, but they had no interest in us, and we quickly learned to ignore them. We had a great time,

Great.

A lot of space inside and outside. Very well maintained house. A very steep road to the gate of the house. Our car didn't make it to reach the house with four (two elderly children) people inside the car. Three of us had to walk the last 50 meters! Further on around the swimming pool (although it is really nice) a lot of wasps like the the same spot. The airco in the house works perfect. The beds are good. The veranda is a good place to avoid the hot Greek sun! I can recommend this house.

Beautiful Villa

Very well maintained. Lovely pool. Really need a car not really within walking distance to amenities. There were no condiments supplied so we needed to shop for everything ie salt, pepper etc. It is in the country so be prepared for roosters, owls and stray cats. Would be ideal for a family vacation.

Beautiful situation, lovely villa.

We had a very enjoyable time in Corfu and the villa was very good. The only criticism is that the villa was cold when we arrived and at night, and the central heating was not available. Friendly and helpful house keeper and gardener who reconnected the water supply when it went off. thank you

Such a lovely house set in beautiful surroundings.

We had an amazing time at the villa and on wonderful Corfu. The description of the property didn't really do it justice. Jane from Prestige Villas couldn't have been more helpful. The lady who came to change the bedding mid holiday was so lovely, and didn't put us out in any way. The pool guy, and the gardener were really nice. The gardener was especially helpful, inquiring, if it was ok to cut the grass. He also helped my daughter who had problems with her hire car. I would definitely recommend the villa to family and friends. The only small things we would suggest, would be to reposition the TV, to make it easier for everyone to watch, and perhaps have two large sofas, rather than one large and one smaller. It was a bit of a squeeze when all six of us wanted to watch TV. We had lovely meals out especially at Klimitaria in Benitses. In fact most places we ate, the food was really good. The only disappointment was a meal at Etrusco, which is supposed to be the best restaurant on the island. We went there on the last evening of our holiday to celebrate two birthdays. Despite warning them well in advance that our daughter has Coeliac disease, and that two of our party didn't eat meat, they were repeatedly given food with things in that they couldn't eat. We would definitely recommend a visit to the Achillion Palace,which is within walking distance. Corfu town is lovely to visit and has lots to explore. Also the monastery at Paleocastrictos is lovely, but can be very busy with tourists We would definitely recommend a visit to Panto Krator for absolutely amazing views. Overall we had such a wonderful holiday. Everywhere we went people were so friendly and helpful. Perhaps that's why we all love Corfu so much!

Rymlig och praktisk villa i pittoreska Gastouri

Vi hade en härlig vecka i Villa Rossi. Villan var stor och rymlig och i bra skick. Trädgården var välhållen och poolen servades flera gånger under veckan. Köket var välutrustat men ytterligare några bra knivar och skärbrädor hade varit användbart. Läget i pittoreska Gastouri var lugnt men centralt och grannarna vänliga och välkomnande. Flygplatsen med starter och landningar hördes tidiga morgnar och sena kvällar men vi var förberedda på det. Det var gott om små katter, skällande hundar och några höns. Vi hittade några mindre trafikerade löprundor, bland annat på vägen mot Perama. Den blå lokalbussen nr 10 stannar närmast vid Gastouri Philharmonic Orchestra mittemot Taverna To Pouli Tsi Kotas, vilket också var bästa stället att beställa taxibilar till. Vi klarade oss utan bil och beställde matleverans från eJoy-markets i Dassia.

We spent 1 week in this wonderful villa. Really nice view from the pool, a charming village close to the house, and not far from Corfou city. I recommend this place. Just 1 advice for the owner: it would be interesting to reach the garden directly from the terrace.

Sehr schöne Villa mit Traumpool für sechs Personen (acht möglich)

Angenehme ruhige Lage, ländlich (mit krähendem Hahn nebenan...) Sehr schönes, grosses Anwesen mit 4 Klimaanlagen die gut funktionieren, einer wunderbaren riesigen Veranda im 1. Stock sowie grosser Terrasse mit guter Bepflanzung und traumhaftem beleuchtetem Riesenpool (45 qm. Vorne 80 cm, hinten 1.90 m tief) im Garten. Das ganze Anwesen wird abends automatisch beleuchtet. Zugang über eine etwas schmale, zum Teil etwas steilere Zufahrt, der Mietwagen sollte nicht zu gross sein; unser Fiat Doblo, Sechssitzer, passte aber prima. Im Ort gibt es eine Bäckerei, ein paar Tavernen und verschiedene Geschäfte (Keramik, Olivenholz) und ist in Nähe zu Kaiserin Sissis Achilleion. Die Küchenutensilien sind etwas begrenzt, aber im Urlaub will man vielleicht nicht immer gross aufkochen... Ein paar Kleinigkeiten müssten gerichtet werden, insgesamt aber eine sehr schöne, typisch griechische Villa, in der man den Urlaub geniessen kann. Der Pool ist aussergewöhnlich gross, sehr sauber und die Reinigungsanlage exzellent. Unsere Kinder wollten fast nicht mehr ans Meer.....

Great location, beautiful garden, great outdoor seating, great warm pool.

Great location, great garden, great outdoor seating. Great pool, even in May nice and warm. We would book again. A few suggestions: 1. the 4th bedroom has no air conditioning and the bed squeaks terribly. 2. the upper bathroom is not so nice (no pictures in the prospect) 3.The outer door opener is defect. sometimes 10 tries until the gate opens. maybe the code should be changed, the 4 numbers everyone can see because the buttons are worn out. 4. An additional cooking pot would be nice. 5. The WLAN Code does not work, Android connects per WPS without code. The two I phone`s we could not connect. It was no Problem because we got LTE there. For the cleaning team: With a ceranfeldscraper you get the stove clean. The dishwasher was totally calcified and did not clean properly. Google helped: we reprogrammed the dishwasher from salt level zero to level 7 (max). So now enough bitching, the holiday was beautiful. With best regards H. R.
