For a coastal escape on the idyllic island of Corfu, look no further than this chic, minimalist villa. Set on a small spit of land close to Kontakali, this stunning retreat offers beach access and jaw-dropping views over the island. The home's upside-down layout makes the most of its beachfront location, ensuring you can socialise in the first-floor spaces with uninterrupted views rolling out before you. In addition to the open layout of the kitchen and living room, vast sliding doors reveal a scenic outdoor dining area that sits on a wrap-around balcony. Head downstairs and discover three en-suite bedrooms decorated in soothing earth tones to help you effortlessly drift off after a day in the sun. Each enjoys direct access to the lush gardens and poolside patio, where we imagine you'll spend most of your time lounging in the sun, enjoying refreshing dips in the water and relishing those awe-inspiring vistas. If you fancy a change of scenery, the family-friendly waters of Kontakali Beach are little more than 100m away. Elsewhere, the picturesque Daphnila, Dassia, and Glyfada beaches offer still seas and breathtaking natural beauty within a half-hour drive of your front door.
