Villa Eleni is the perfect place for a medium-sized or large group holiday and base to explore Corfu. The villa has a perfect balance between communal areas for socialising and privacy for when one wants a bit of self time on a group visit. The villa has great kitchen facilities, perfect pool for cooling off, within a very close walking distance to all amenities, shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. It is also super close to the beach and beachside attractions. All in all a wonderful stay.

It suited us very well with a good size pool (always sparklingly clean) and plenty communal space, both shaded and sunny. If one wanted a bit of seclusion, each room had its own spacious balcony with a sea view. The “steep” drive up, mentioned by others, was no problem to our averagely fit group which included two 76 year olds. Shops and beach are easily walkable. Carine could not have been more kind or helpful with all the arrangements. This was our 5th large family holiday (in France, Spain and Crete) and we all rated it best yet.

Large Family Group, July 2022
18 of our family stayed at Villa Eleni for 14 days in July 2022. 13 adults, 4 aged 12-14 and a 3 year old and we all agreed it was the best villa we have stayed at.
The villa was ideal, the pool was amazing, very large and deep, the steps were great for the non-swimmers, plenty of outdoor space around the pool for the kids to play and loads of sun loungers and other seating areas in the sun and shade. Poolside toilet and shower block was ideal.
The outdoor kitchen and eating area was very well equipped and was great for everyone to meet at and the 3 fridges and large freezer gave plenty space for water, juice, food etc. The rooms all being split into separate apartments with most having fridges also was good and meant you also had your own space which was needed at times with such a large group!
Carine was a great host, we had to contact her a few times on Whatsapp and she was always very helpful and very quick to respond! She also helped arrange for traditional greek food to be delivered to the villa for us from a local caterer to celebrate a Golden Wedding anniversary and the food was well presented and delicious!
The kittens in the grounds of the villa were great entertainment for the 3 year old who didn't want to leave them!
We all loved Acharavi as well, very nice and clean town with loads of bars, cafes and restaurants which didn't disappoint. It's a 5 minute walk down the hill to the main street and another 10/15 minute walk from there to the beach where there are great beach bars and restaurants, great to eat dinner with amazing sunsets. The only downside to the villa is the walk back up the hill from the main street which is very steep for the last 150m. This was very tough on my father in law who wasn't able to walk it, the lack of taxis in Acharavi is frustrating but he was helped by Stefanos and Nina in the shop 'Tutti Frutti' at the bottom of the hill who offered to give him a lift up the hill every time he needed it which was amazing! Lovely people, be sure to visit their shop they sell great fruit and nice wines and loads of other homemade stuff. We all loved our stay here and would definitely recommend this villa for large groups, as long as everyone is fit enough for the walk up the hill! Thanks for a great holiday!

Group family holiday
We had an amazing stay at the villa, it was perfect for our large group of 16 adults plus one small child under 2. The pool is huge and there’s so much outdoor space, not to mention the beautiful sea views. The villa is great for large groups to spend time together but also to have their own space and bathrooms etc in individual rooms. We ate at several restaurants in the town and on the beachfront, all lovely and friendly service. We also enjoyed the beach and the sea was great with a little one as was very calm and shallow. Carine was a great host and always replied very quickly to messages. She also helped arrange a meal to be cooked and brought to the villa for a birthday we were celebrating which was very tasty! Thanks for a great stay!

The villa was absolutely lovely. All of our group of 17, friends and family couldn't fault the spacious apartments and the most amazing pool we have ever had in a villa rental. The communal area by the pool made the place even more special as it was so well equipped we could all eat and congregate together whilst still having our own private areas in the villa itself. Acharavi is only a few minutes walk away with all the amenities, bars and restaurants . The only downside to the villa is the short 200 metres steep hill coming back up but it won't put us off from renting this villa again. The pool was cleaned 3 times during our 10 day stay and is very large and deep, we all spent many hours enjoying cooling down from the beautiful sun. Would definitely recommend this villa and the welcoming staff who came to clean

This was a wonderful villa, we stayed as a family group of 18, and all of us enjoyed Villa Eleni immensely. Everything we needed was provided, the rooms gave us all individual space but then the communal area, large kitchen, the garden and the pool were just unbelievable - absolutely perfect.
The villa was close to a sandy beach, huge choice of restaurants and shops (the super market even had a selection of gluten free products). One thing to mention, though, is the very steep hill that we had to climb to get back so carrying heavy bags was difficult, it also made us wish we had brought a pushchair for the youngest member of our group, she hadn't needed one for the past year at home but it would have been a good idea for that hill!
There was so much to do for all of us, we arranged excursions to the water park, Corfu old town by boat and a scuba diving trip using the companies in town. We also used the bus to get to Roda and Kassiopi. So a car wasn't necessary for our stay in Acharavi.
A fabulous team of cleaners and gardeners visited every day, keeping the place clean and beautiful, if we did see them they were very friendly and helpful. I think I can safely say we all had a superb holiday in this fabulous villa, thanks to all involved for providing such a setting. I would thoroughly recommend a stay here and would visit again if the opportunity arose.

Villa Eleni was perfect for our big group of 19. Pool was very good for both kids and adults. Poolside kitchen and dining area were big enough and well equipped. Location uphills was a bit far from the beach but it was very peaceful and views were beautiful. We picked croissants every morning from the bakery and ordered pizzas and gyros some nights to the house. There are nice restaurants in the village also.
Carine was very heplful and the tips we got before holiday from her were very useful.

Really well-equiped kitchen with everything you might need for a large group.Everything sparkling clean.Views of the sea and sunsets added to the overall amazing experience.Yes there is a bit of a steep hill coming up to the house but even people with mobility issues managed it well.We were sad to leave this villa.So thank you Carine and your local staff for all the care and attention we received while on holidays in this truly fantastic villa.

Our family of 20 (16 adults & 4 kids) really enjoyed our week here. The outdoor space is amazing - a big pool and a long table allowing us to all eat together.
It's a short walk to the village (although downhill) which has a good selections of supermarkets and restaurants. And just a little further to the beach with more restaurants

The Villa is everything and more, we went with 20 family and friends for the first time August 2018 a mixture fro a 8 month old baby, early twenties to early sixties...there was everything we need along with the friendly house keepers and pool attended...the place was very clean and all the rooms were well kept up with a few homely touches...would recommend it to any big parties and will be looking forward to another visit. The communication and help I received from Carine was brilliant....I would say the only thing we mist was the town it's self we thought had lacked it's Greek authenticate and a little more lively with some Greek music in more of the bars and restaurants....

Wonderful property exceeded all our expectations
There was plenty of room for our group of 16 adults and 4 children. All the rooms were excellent, really comfy large beds, modern bathrooms with good showers and very efficient air conditioning which was a must in the August heat. The outside space was incredible, huge pool, green areas, large shaded terrace area which could seat us all for eating comfortably. Shaded area for the kids to play and even some toys were provided for the children which was really useful, a great hit with the kids. The outside kitchen was huge, loads of crockery, glasses etc and 3 fridges. Amazing property highly recommended. We loved the old village close to the villa some really good restaurants and authentic little bars. We were not so keen on the main road area and beach area which was far more commercial and busy and areas of litter and bins waiting to be collected. But overall a wonderful holiday hope to return in the future.. ..

Villa Eleni, Acharavi, Corfu
Amazing house, very well equipped, fantastic pool. All 12 of our three-generation family had a great time - and there is plenty of room to have time to yourself if that's what you wanted! The garden is large and offers shade if needed. The village and beach are a short distance away and offer a good selection of shops and restaurants. I would have no hesitation in recommending this property for a wonderful holiday.

Excellent
An excellent property, everything as quoted and more !!!!
18 of us plus two children descended on the villa, and found everything exactly as described, and spotlessly clean. The pool was excellent and indeed had space for everyone, and that is where a lot of our time was spent. My 80 year old mum, spent her time in the shadows feeding the friendly house cat and watching proceedings. She couldn't work out what was "puss" in Greek, but they seemed to understand each other.
Our one hiccup (one person being shut out), was resolved within the hour by an email to Caroline.
We cooked ourselves a couple of meals on the excellent facilities, but were a bit fed up that there was no outdoor barbecue. (maybe a suggestion for next year ?) Cooking for 20 is a bit of a hassle, and a brick built Barbie, would have helped so much, and would prevent us eating out as much as we did. Having said that the local restaurants were all very helpful. The Pumphouse and Acharavi Park were our favourites. Each meal averaging £20 each with heaps of food and drinks included.
I know the 'old' bathrooms are planned for renovation. I tended not to use mine as a plug was missing from the sink, so I used the next door beautiful bathroom, or the one in the little house, which was lovely.
All in all, an excellent holiday, went too quickly. Am also considering next year, I'm sure the experience could not be bettered ..
I would not hesitate recommending Villa Eleni to anyone doubtful that the description could be believed. I assure you all it was great.

Superb Villa for a group holiday
Villa Eleni is perfect for a group/family holiday. There were 14 of us that stayed for a week from 25th May 2016. The enquiry and booking was easy and when we arrived we were thrilled. The Villa itself was immaculately clean with lovely comfortable beds and spacious living spaces. The pool area is wonderful with a lovely covered area for meals or to simply get some shade and a great swimming pool with lots of sunbeds and chairs and tables around it. The gardens are well kept and have beautiful plants and flowers in. The area is nice too and not too far a walk from the local bars and restaurants if you fancy an evening out. I can highly recommend North Corfu travel for airport transfers or a day out in Sidari etc.. We visited 4 of the restaurants that were recommended in the Villa brochure and t hey were all fab. I wouldn't hesitate to book Villa Eleni again.

The perfect place for group holidays
Villa Eleni is a very nice building in the local architectural style.
The rooms are well equipped, comfortable and clean. All have a terrace with view to the swimming pool.
The terrace on the roof is very large and has also beautiful views to the sea and the mountains.
The swimming pool is big and well maintained, with a lot of long chairs.
The pool house aside the swimming pool provides a bar, all accommodations for cooking and sufficient room for the whole group to eat together.
Villa Eleni is very close to the centre of Acharavi (10 minutes by foot) and the beaches (20 minutes by foot). In Acharavi there are many shops and restaurants with typical Greek’s atmosphere.
There are a lot of interesting things to do or to visit in the area. All are well described in a document provided by the owners.
Villa Eleni is really the ideal place to organize family or group events.

stay at villa eleni begin august
We had a wonderfull stay in Villa Eleni from 1 till 11th of August.
90 % of our time we spend outside near the swimming pool in a great atmosphere.
The pool is well maintained and so big you can swim in it with everybody.
breakfast , lunch and dinner we took under the roof of the terrace with spectacular views.. every bedroom , except 1 , had airco so we all slept very well during the hot nights...
it seems like the owner is going to install a dishwasher witch will be a big added value!

Incredible stay!!!
We stayed with a large group of 17 people and everything worked out very smoothly. Catherine and Paul made sure eveything went well and they were very honnest and friendly to us.
The rooms were clean and as expected, the pool is really nice, the new bar is handy and the facilities were confortable. The city Acharavi is only 5 minutes away, you can thus buy your groceries by foot. It takes 15 minutes to go the beach by foot.
All 17 of us were thrilled about it and we hope we'll get the opportunity to come back one day. In other words, we higly recommmend this place.

Heerlijke vakantie.
Super vakantie gehad in Villa Eleni.
Een mooi complex, met kamers voorzien van ruim balkon aan de achterzijde.
De verblijven zijn dik oké, de inrichting (bedden, tafel met stoelen), was prima.Het uiterst verzorgde zwembad en de ruime buitenbar zijn gewoon zalig.
Supermarkt is heel dichtbij en de zee op een 10 minuutjes wandelafstand. Lang strand met kiezels (schoentjes meenemen) met overal goede restaurantjes en terrassen
Acharavi is een mooie stad met vriendelijke mensen en heeft een bruisend nachtleven. Restaurant-Bar Maistro is zeker een aanrader. Hier proef je letterlijk de Griekse sfeer !!!
Auto of scooter huren is een aanrader om het eiland te verkennen. Adembenemende bezienswaardigheden en natuur. Werkelijk voor herhaling vatbaar. Graag volgend jaar opnieuw !

De ligging tov zee en stadje was perfect; goed te doen op wandelafstand .
Echt een aanrader!!!
