Villa Bay View | 3-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Corfu

Six guests, three bedrooms, one infinity pool positioned to frame the Ionian Sea—this is a luxury villa rental Sivota Greece that demands your attention the moment you arrive. Villa Bay View perches on the hillside above the working fishing village of Sivota in mainland Epirus, commanding views across turquoise waters toward the islands of Paxos and Corfu. The location is purposefully remote yet wonderfully accessible: one minute by car to the village harbor, five minutes on foot to the first taverna.

Inside Villa Bay View

Villa Bay View sleeps 6 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The layout works as a sequence of discoveries rather than a conventional floor plan. Step inside and you enter a soaring living and dining area flooded with Mediterranean light from multiple glass doors and windows. The room breathes—sumptuous seating is oriented not inward but outward, toward the view. Beyond the sitting area sits a raised secondary lounge with a fireplace, wood-lined and intimate, the kind of room where six people naturally gather at dusk without being corralled.

The kitchen occupies its own considered space, finished in soft blue-grey tones with professional-grade appliances, a Nespresso machine for morning rituals, and a breakfast table that catches the early light. This is the kind of kitchen that makes cooking feel less like a chore and more like theater—wide countertops, proper storage, the sort of setup that transforms holiday meals from logistics into occasions. Double doors open from here directly to the pool and garden areas, collapsing the distance between food preparation and outdoor dining.

The master bedroom occupies a prime position with direct access to a substantial balcony where sea views and forested slopes compete for your attention. The bed itself is dressed in Egyptian linen, anchored by substantial wood furniture that gives the room substance and calm. An ensuite bathroom is fitted throughout with quality tilework, walk-in shower, and luxury toiletries.

The second double bedroom also opens to the shared balcony, offering the same southern exposure and sea vista. Its ensuite bathroom maintains the same standard of finish. The third bedroom features two single beds (convertible to a king configuration) with mountain views from the balcony—a deliberate choice for families or guests seeking quieter aspect. A separate guest bathroom serves this room and the main living areas, fully tiled with walk-in shower and heated towel rails.

Throughout the villa, original artwork adorns the walls—a considered collection that elevates the space beyond functional holiday rental into something resembling a personal residence. Heating runs year-round. Wi-Fi penetrates every room. Smart TV in the main lounge. Washing machine tucked away for week-long stays.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The infinity pool is the structural anchor of the exterior space—a generous rectangle with zero-edge perspective that merges the water line into the Ionian horizon. Surrounding deck space accommodates sunbeds and loungers without crowding. A dining table sits under partial shade, arranged for alfresco meals at any hour. A gas barbecue stands ready for grilled fish and vegetables.

Balconies extend from the master and second bedrooms, deep enough for dawn coffee or evening drinks—the kind of spaces that absorb hours without intention. The garden is planted with native species: fragrant pines, cypress, and ancient olive trees that provide natural shade and wind protection. The landscape slopes naturally toward the sea, creating multiple micro-terraces and seating areas without the need for heavy construction.

At check-in, guests receive a traditional Greek welcome hamper and luxury bathroom products—the kind of thoughtful gesture that signals this is a property managed with attention.

Location: Sivota and the Surrounding Area

Sivota itself is a fishing village of perhaps 300 residents, built around a natural harbor where fishing boats still depart at dawn. The waterfront is lined with tavernas—roughly 8-10 family-run establishments serving the catch of the day. Mikri Ammos Beach lies 3km south, a sandy crescent with a beach club offering day-bed lounging and Mediterranean cocktails. Bella Vraka lies just 1.5km from the villa, accessible via a sandy causeway that connects to a small island—excellent for swimmers seeking something beyond the main beach.

Parga, the region’s most famous resort destination, sits 32km south. The town cascades down a steep hillside in pastel-colored houses, with a Venetian castle ruin commanding the ridge above and a white Orthodox church marking the harbor entrance. The beaches here are sheltered, with fine sand and exceptionally calm, warm water—ideal for families with young children. The village of Perdika, 11km north, offers a more understated alternative: narrow stone streets, family kafeneia (coffee houses), and zero tourist infrastructure.

Inland, the Zagoria mountains rise dramatically with dozens of traditional villages perched at elevation—Ioannina (70km), the regional capital, is a lakeside city with Ottoman architecture, a fortress, and museums dedicated to Byzantine silver craftsmanship. The Vikos Gorge, Greece’s deepest canyon, lies within the Zagoria National Park, 85km away, offering hiking routes rated among Europe’s most dramatic.

Paxos Island, 30 minutes by private sea taxi from Sivota harbor, covers just 19 square kilometers. The eastern coastline shelves gently; the western cliffs rise 200 meters with sea caves and natural arches. Gaios, the main settlement, is a port town with excellent fish tavernas. Lakka (north coast) and Loggos (east coast) offer quieter alternatives with village charm and minimal development.

The closest international airport is Corfu International (35km, 50 minutes by car). Ground transfers can be arranged. The nearest supermarket (Sivota mini-market) is 1 minute’s drive; larger grocery shopping is available in Parga (32km, 40 minutes). The best months are May to June and September to October—warm enough for sea swimming, cool enough for walking and exploration. July and August bring heat and European crowds; winter (November to March) is quieter but cooler and wetter.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Multi-generational families (2-3 adults, 2-3 children aged 6+) benefit from the three separate bedrooms and shared bathroom strategy—privacy is respected without isolation. The infinity pool and nearby beaches eliminate the need for structured entertainment; children occupy themselves easily. The kitchen’s layout suits couples who enjoy cooking together during evening downtime.

Small groups of friends (three couples) find the sleeping arrangement intuitive—no shared beds, full bathroom privacy, and the two-level interior layout accommodates both social gathering and quiet retreat. The proximity to Sivota’s tavernas and Parga’s nightlife means adults can venture out while off-season, quieter neighbors don’t feel disturbed.

Empty-nesters and retired couples seeking a month-long base appreciate the year-round heating, reliable Wi-Fi for video calls, and the village orientation (shopping, cafes, boat hire) within walking distance. The kitchen and laundry facilities make self-catering across an extended stay financially sensible.

Professional remote workers find the elevated position, stable internet, and natural sound dampening (distance from village noise) suitable for concentration during working hours, with the pool and gardens offering genuine break space.
