About this property

Villa Petalutha - A Stunning Villa with panoramic sea and mountain views.

Villa Petalutha was featured in the May 2015 edition of Woman and Home magazine as one of their favourite villas.
This beautiful villa is located on the outskirts of the traditional mountain village of Spartilas. Nestling beneath the imposing Mount Pantokrator, it offers privacy and seclusion, yet is only 5 minutes drive or 10 minutes scenic walk to the village. The popular resort of Barbati, with beautifully clear water and safe swimming, is 15 minutes drive away. The airport and cosmopolitan Corfu town, a world heritage site, are 40 minutes drive. The area is one of outstanding natural beauty; a peaceful haven for wildlife, including eagles, lizards and butterflies, from which the villa takes its name. Set in its own olive grove and blending superbly with its surroundings, this luxurious villa is built to a high specification. It's unique split level design was inspired by the natural terraces of the hillside and maximises the breathtaking 180 degree views of the beautiful east coast bays, Corfu town, the spectacular mountains of central Corfu and the glorious sunsets of the west coast.
Villa Petalutha has four bedrooms and four bathrooms all with stunning views. There are comfortable mattresses and good quality bed linen and towels. Swimming towels are also provided. The living area is open plan and flows beautifully to outside spaces. The Kitchen is well equipped for enthusiastic cooks.

Steps lead down from the villa to the stunning infinity pool which is heated for shoulder season lets. The pool terraces are well furnished with sun loungers and easy chairs. This villa is a peaceful paradise set in the most spectacular location on the beautiful island of Corfu.

Beautiful Villa
We booked this villa in 2019 long before anyone had heard of a Covid-19. Debbie was a pleasure to deal with in circumstances where no-one could predict whether we would be able to fly to Corfu. The villa has a stunning view over Dassia bay and beyond. We spent happy evenings eating and drinking against the backdrop of twinkling lights in the distance. In the day you could see from the east coast to the west coast . The pool setting is beautiful and the villa is wonderfully equipped. The outdoor grounds provide ample areas to relax in the sun or the shade. If you are seeking peace and quiet in a beautiful setting then this is the villa for you.

An Excellent Week !
We had a fantastic week at Villa Petalutha. Everything was just as described and possibly even better. The Villa has everything you need to be a real home from home and it is in fantastic condition also the grounds are beautiful. Lots of different hang out spots including a fab hammock under the shady trees. The views down to the sea are stunning. One point of note the drive up and down the hill is a bit tricky (to get the views you have to drive up) but after having done it a few times it gets easier and easier.

Fabulous villa with breathtaking views
Such a lot of care has so obviously gone into designing the layout of the villa and furnishing it. There are fabulous views every which way you turn and equal care has gone into planning the outside areas - which are vast!! The planting in the garden is stunning and provides shade, a beautiful backdrop and also welcomes wildlife. The variety of outdoor eating and seating options also means that you feel you are having a really luxurious experience. The view obviously means you have to be prepared for a bit of a drive to get up to the villa - but it is so worth it. You can’t fail to have a wonderful holiday here. The regular cleaning and visits from the lovely property manager means you also won’t have any headaches to deal with once there. There are lots of lovely beaches, tavernas and places of interest which can easily be accessed if you can bear to leave the villa. Our family and friends would very highly recommend this wonderful villa.

Fabulous villa
We arrived late at night to this wonderful villa and immediately fell in love with it. Walking out onto the extensive terrace the view of the bays across the island was breathtaking and the underwater lighting in the pool looked magical. We were impressed with the layout of the gardens and the internal space at the villa. Everything we needed was to hand and we were glad of the welcome pack of essentials to keep us going until we organised a shopping trip. The owners have created comprehensive folders of information for guests which we used daily. We enjoyed many of the recommended tavernas and places to visit. There are some lovely beaches within easy reach and we hired a boat for a day, which became the highlight of the holiday. We had a very memorable family holiday in this special place and will definitely be returning - next time for much longer.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie

Host profile image
My husband David and I live in the Chew Valley near Bristol. I am a retired primary school teacher and my husband is a retired BT audit manager. We have three grown up children. We have always enjoyed family holidays together and we first came to Corfu in 1999. We loved the crystal clear waters, the tiny pebble beaches and the spectacular mountains that roll down to the sea. We have stayed in more exotic locations but always return to Corfu as our preferred destination. It has always been my dream to have our own villa on the island and now that dream has been realised. Our villa is in a magical location and It will delight all who visit.

Why they chose this property

Corfu is a delightful island that has something for everyone. We spent months searching for a plot of land in exactly the right location;away from the busy tourist resorts yet within reach of our favourite beaches, no more than 45 minutes drive from the airport and keeping Corfu town easily accessible. We wanted the dramatic and interesting views that only a mountain location can give but still wanted to be near a village community. Peace and tranquility was high on the list. When we first visited our plot of land, it was filled with beautiful wild flowers that attracted a host of brightly coloured butterflies (petalutha). The only sounds were the cicadas, the church bell and the bleat of a wild goat and then we saw the views...we knew that this was where we wanted to build our villa. We take great pride in presenting a home from home and making your holiday experience very special.

What makes this property unique

Having stayed in many holiday villas we knew exactly what we wanted to provide in ours. We have spent a long time choosing good quality furniture, most of which has come from England. We have bought pocket sprung mattresses and egyptian cotton sheets and towels to make your stay more comfortable. As I am a keen cook myself, the kitchen has been carefully designed to faciliate use and is extensively equipped, including professional chef's knives, so that cooking a main meal or preparing a light snack is a pleasure. The view can still be enjoyed as you stand at the sink!
The ever changing light across the landscape during the day is mesmerising and at night the panorama of bays and the little inland villages become a show of twinkling lights - perfect for evening dining on the roof terrace.
