Location

Carpe Diem Corfu Villas is located in the North East Coast of the island, an area of rare natural beauty with Emerald coves, clean white pebbles beaches and rocky bay reliefs reachable only by boat. Charming areas such as Agni, Kaminaki, Yialiskari and St Stephano are since  decades the ultimate destination for Corfu villas holidays. Locally known as Aghios Stefanos, San Stefano has been populated only with high standards villas three of which feature in Carpe Diem Corfu Villas collection. San Stefano harbour village is still a private and secluded environment with some traditional taverns offering the famous tasty Mediterranean food, a couple of  in café-bars and a few mini-markets.

Our Recommendations:

There is no denying that anyone seeking an escape from a busy life, will be content to ‘chill-out’ by the pool or on the beach without ever picking up the car keys or opening a map, but it would be a pity to leave Corfu without exploring at least one of its many diversions. A few ideas are listed below:

• A visit to Corfu Town for some sophisticated shopping, a special lunch or dinner, and a glimpse of Corfu’s history. The Old Town of Corfu is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a short walk soon reveals just how much it deserves this award
• Sample the cultural life of Corfu with concerts and recitals of all kinds during July, August and September
• Visit Albania for a day or more – Butrint is one of the Mediterranean’s finest archaeological sites, while a visit to the medieval Ottoman town of Gjirokastro is fascinating in a different way
• Drive up to the top of Mt Pantocrator for spectacular views; explore the mountain villages where a lunch with local produce is not to be missed
• Relax over a leisurely meal of fresh fish at Agni, Boukari, Ag. Georgios Pagi, or at one of the southernmost beaches
• Visit the Byzantine castle of Angelokastro for a spot of history and drama – imaginative children love it
• Play golf at one of Europe’s finest golf courses; horse ride through quiet countryside; learn the basics of dinghy sailing and water-skiing; soar above the sea on a parachute or dive below its surface on a scuba diving expedition
• Enjoy walking and wild flowers in early and late season
