Villa Bouratika Greece
Holiday Home Rental Description
Nestled in the greenest corner of Corfu on the cusp of the Ionian Sea, Villa Bouratika is the perfect wellness retreat awaiting you in the most exquisite villa!
As you arrive, make your way through the tranquil courtyard and prepare to be amazed as you throw open the gates and see straight out to the superb sea views beyond! Stepping into your living spaces, with the sea a dazzling backdrop to the enchanting world within, you’ll love this wonderful blend of indoor and outdoor! Settle into the plush sofas, head into your cinema room for movie night or even take a seat at this grand piano to entertain the group – there’s truly something to suit every mood! There are several delightful dining areas to choose from each mealtime, as well as a superb kitchen if you feel like rustling something up while enjoying the sea views! The fitness conscious will feel right at home, too, with a superb suite teeming with equipment, and even a personal trainer to help keep you on track for your fitness goals!
Four majestic bedrooms await you in the main villa. Embodying the same fusion of interior and exterior spaces, each has at least one set of doors straight onto the terrace, with an accompanying seating area for peaceful moments enjoying a coffee in between the socialising and fun of your stay! For that little extra privacy, there’s also an additional guest house with two double bedrooms, as well as living areas and a kitchen, for those who like that bit more solitude! Each of the eleven bathrooms is simply divine: a perfect place for relaxation and pampering. Huge freestanding or spa-style bathtubs, walk-in showers, and of course the same unforgettable sea views will have you feeling refreshed and revived each day!
And then of course, enter the magnificent garden. Stretching right across it and all the way down the hillside, this abundant space is bursting with sublime swimming pools, fragrant trees, lawns, casual seating and dining and of course tons of loungers for sunbathing, soaking up the tranquillity of the sea and sounds of nature! Your main infinity pool, with its striking unique shape, mirrors the soft blue skies and extends to the sea beautifully, giving you the most serene spot for a dip! Meanwhile you can rest and soak and unwind at this traditional hammam, before enjoying a tipple at the incredible bar on the terrace!
Nestled right into the hillside of the stunning north-eastern coast of Corfu, Villa Bouratika is a magnificent choice for holiday in paradise, with panoramic views across the Greek and Albanian coasts in the distance!
Nearby Nissaki, a quaint coastal village, is known for its small island tucked in the middle of its bay – with a jetty linking it to the mainland. On the islet itself you can find a few characterful tavernas, while in the stunning water around it you can enjoy all kinds of water sports – from swimming and snorkelling to water-skiing, jet-skiing and even e-foiling!
Corfu is teeming with UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the Old Town of Corfu itself, which boasts a sublime mixture of Venetian and British architecture due to the many times it’s been repaired since the Venetian rule prior to the 18th century. Meanwhile, Paleopolis, or ancient Corfu, was an important trading post but is now a fascinating set of ruins well worth a visit, alongside the Monument of Menecrates. Across the island you will find myriad delightfully maintained and restored palaces and squares alongside ancient ruins, each adding beautifully to the unfolding, fascinating tapestry of the Corfu landscape.
The foodies of the group will adore a stay in Corfu. Like so much of Greece, the culinary scene is famous for its rich flavours and concoctions of Mediterranean delights. Feta and olive oil are universal, while all kinds of fresh fish, fragrant herbs, in-season fruits and crunchy greens, all found in the back garden of the average Greek, await your enjoyment. And as for drinks, it’s got to be Ouzo and Raki, two grape based alcoholic drinks. Be sure to try one or the other in your time on the island, both firm favourites of the locals. And definitely don’t miss the local food. Try all the wonderful elements of the classic Greek cuisine while you’re here, but particularly the local speciality of plums, which you will find in abundance across the island, and are included in foods ranging from sweets to pork! It’s a whole holiday in itself to try the varied, rich flavours across the island so don’t miss out!
