About this villa rental

Just a 2 minute walk through the quaint sleepy village to the high Street where there are tavernas, a couple of bars and a mini-market. Only a 5 minute drive from the beach and the picturesque resort of Benitses with its new marina and a great choice of restaurants makes Villa Rossi a perfect choice for a Greek holiday. A beautifully restored country house located in a peaceful rural area on the edge of the award winning picturesque village of Gastouri. Once the home of the owners Great Grandmother ‘Rossi’ from Scotland who married a local Corfiot, it has now been lovingly restored and furnished to a very high standard after standing derelict for many years. Through the private electric gates and along the sweeping drive you can only be impressed as you arrive. The tropical gardens are simply stunning with lawns across to the extremely large pool and sunbathing areas with high quality sun loungers with comfortable cushions, parasols and garden furniture. It comfortably sleeps six guests but with the facility of a further two. There are beautiful views of Corfu Town and the sea beyond from the enormous covered veranda and it's a wonderful dining area and cool, relaxing lounge area during the very hot months. We have repeat guests each year and our reviews speak for themselves. We are sure you will love it!!

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!
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,

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.

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.
