Villa Athina Overview
Villa Athina is simply spectacular! The location has to be as near to perfect as it is possible to get. Anotoliko, as this area is known, is home to a handful of exclusive sea side villas all within close distance of Kassiopi with it's charming harbour.
This beautiful property is reached by a steep driveway from the edge of the harbour, never fear – the owner of Athina has thoughtfully provided a path from the villa down to a gate which leads onto the coastal footpath, giving very easy access to the small beaches below Athina and the harbour itself. Athina stands proudly in large lawned gardens, looking east across to the mountains of Albania and south to Avlaki beach. The glorious gated pool is placed to grab the sun, and offer the full glory of these wonderful views whilst being very private. The villas impossibly spacious main living areas being on the upper ground floor are designed to allow large parties to “spread” out to enjoy the endless balconies and terraces, all featuring panoramic sea views.
Inside, the villa is spread over three floors with the main open plan living area on the first floor featuring large glass doors to make the most of the sea views. A well equipped kitchen is also located on this floor featuring all the mod cons you may require and a wine fridge handy for chilling those local bottles ready for al fresco dining. A second lounge area as well as a games room with pool table are located on the ground floor, perfect for families to spread out, and this floor leads straight out to the garden and barbecue area. Every bedroom benefits from an ensuite bathroom and access to a balcony, and the second floor of the villa is dedicated to a lovely master bedroom with Jacuzzi bath, as well as a balcony overlooking the harbour. The décor throughout mixes modern and classic in a complimentary way, giving an overall feeling of opulence and comfort. Outside, a generous lawn area borders the villa, and from here just a few steps take you up to the larger-than-average swimming pool which is gated; ideal for families with young children.

Resort Description
Kassiopi, at the northern tip of the North East coast of Corfu is a busy harbour and a thriving resort. The attractive paved harbour is ringed by shops and restaurants (and a few bars) and the constant comings and goings in the harbour will give hours of entertainment once in your holiday “laid back” frame of mind!
A great choice for all ages, Kassiopi is particularly appreciated by families with young adults in their group as there is just enough in the way of nightlife to keep them happy but all very close to home and secure. For the entire family there is an excellent selection of restaurants catering for all tastes, some very pleasant bars and cafés and a really good selection of shops – Kassiopi boasts jewellery shops, lace and embroidered linen, ceramics as well as souvenir shops of the more traditional kind and even a couple of boutiques. Of course there are several supermarkets, a fishmonger, a couple of butchers and several bakers to cater for all your daily needs.
Kassiopi is also great for water based activities – hire a self-drive boat from the harbour and explore the coastline or take a captained boat trip further afield. On the north side of the harbour (around the peninsula topped by the ruins of the Roman fortress) is the main beach which also offers water sports but to either side of the harbour you will find a plethora of tiny bays and coves to swim and sunbathe.

The villa location is superb with wonderful views from all aspects. It is spacious and very tastefully decorated. The surrounding pool and gardens provide ample places to enjoy the views from the villa. The harbour village is literally two minutes away and the restaurants provide fantastic meals time after time. Beautiful cocktail bars and areas by the sea provide places to sit and watch the world go by.

Villa Athena is absolutely beautiful. There was absolutely nothing not to LOVE about it. It is very spacious & well equipped with everything you could possibly need & more. This was our second holiday in Villa Athena and I really, really hope we'll have loads more holidays here. Kassiopi is heavenly. We didn't need a car but we did hire a boat from Phillipes Boats & went off to various Taverners around the beautiful coast.

Took all our family for a joint 60th birthday celebration. A truly amazing villa in a wonderful location and exceeded all our expectations. The property is equipped to the highest standard and there is every kitchen appliance you could think of if you want to cater for yourselves. The close proximity to the harbour with its restaurants and bars is a massive plus and there are several small supermarkets for your convenience. The one thing to be aware of is the very steep driveway to walk up to the entrance of the villa - anyone with mobility problems would have difficulty. A fantastic holiday.

Spacious villa with a wonderful pool overlooking Albanian coastline. Two living spaces felt even larger than the pictures showed, ever room was exactly as described and as shown in photos. Immaculately clean and very well stocked with just about everything we need for the week. In the perfect location a short stroll away from harbour with so many restaurants and bars, but we did find it hard to tear ourselves away from that view, the gardens, the pool. We were a party of seven adults and really need two weeks to do the space on the villa justice. We will be back. Kassiopi is a very pretty harbour with a laid back attitude, more than enough restaurants and bars with very reasonable prices ( we spent about £30 per couple including wine and water)
