Villa Makrades 2

Spacious apartment, clean and the communication was excellent with the host.

We had the most incredible stay at Villa Makrades in Corfu! Nestled in a charming and authentic small Greek mountain village, this villa was the perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort. It’s located just 15–20 minutes by car from Paleokastritsa Beach—undoubtedly one of the best beaches on the island—and provided the peaceful retreat we needed after long, sun-filled days. The villa itself is immaculate, newly renovated with modern finishes, and equipped with lightning-fast 5G internet. The outdoor seating area was perfect for relaxing in the cool evening air, surrounded by the sounds of nature and the stunning mountain scenery. Our host, Aethena, was absolutely wonderful—warm, welcoming, and thoughtful. She had cold water and a liter of local wine waiting for us upon arrival, which was a real treat after a long day of traveling. Just 20 meters from the villa, she runs a cozy family taverna where she serves authentic Corfiot food and her own house wine. We ended up dining there every night—it quickly became our favorite place to unwind, meet locals, and enjoy delicious homemade meals. Originally, we booked for 3 nights, but we fell in love with the place so much that we extended our stay by 2 extra nights. It was truly one of the highlights of our entire trip to Greece. One tip: Make sure to use Google Maps for directions and follow the pinned location—not the address listed on Booking.com—as it can be tricky otherwise. But once you arrive, you'll see that it's more than worth it. We highly recommend Villa Makrades to anyone looking for an authentic, relaxing, and memorable stay in Corfu. We can’t wait to return!

The villa is absolutely fantastic!! The place is modern, very clean and comfortable. The host Athena was awesome. She owns a taverna just about a block away too. The taverna has very good food that is homemade and prepared daily. She makes all of her desserts and food from scratch. The taverna has honey, lotion and other little items that can be purchased. The villa has a very cute courtyard with flowes and trees. There was parking available at a church across the road from the villa. The location was so beautiful up in the mountains. We could have not found a better place to stay. I definitely recommend this villa to anyone. There is nothing we didn't like.

It is always such a pleasure to return to Villa Makrades. With a fully equipped kitchen and a separate living room, this immaculately clean villa is one of the cosiest you will find in all of Greece.

Location in a quiet and beautiful town. The host is very friendly and helpful She owns a taverna with delicious home cooked food a few metres from the apartment. The apartment is cozy and has everything we needed for our stay. Good WiFi signal if you need to work. We would recommend changing the roll out curtain in the room as it is too clear and lets a lot of light in. We would wake up every morning earlier than we wanted because of the light

Very friendly host. Well equipped, clean appartment. High standard.

I liked everytjing.

Everything ? Athina,her son Spiro and Sia are great and kind people that makes us feel like we are at home. Apartment has everything you need. They also have a taverna ,50 meters from apartment, with tasty food ? If we come again to Corfu, we'll for surr stay at vila Makrades ?

Exceptional

The apartment is very cozy, our family party of 3 adults and 1 child had all we needed during our week long stay. It is well equipped and clean. Athina is a wonderful host, nothing was a problem for her and she will help you with whatever you might require. The restaurant a few steps away from the house, which she runs, is excellent. We were there for lunch or dinner almost every day. It has a great homely vibe and adds perfectly to the atmosphere of this sleepy little traditional greek village. This whol experience brings the accommodation to a whole new level. Totally recommended. The mattrasses are a bit worn, so sleeping on them is not so comfortable. The apartment is a bit damp. We were there at the end of October and it does not get as much sunlight and it was difficult to create some draft. But we could not get our towels dry for example.

Road to the beach is quite long and spiral.

It's not the first time we've been here. :) The host Athina is very nice. (Thank You for everything!) We got what we expected. Quiet and peaceful place, accessible beaches nearby. Well-equipped apartment, affordable prices. We will come back if possible! :)

Spacious and comfortable,super clean,kitchen very well equipped,very quiet and peaceful,hot water at any hour.Athina is a sweet and great host,she welcomed us with goodies and her little restaurant down the road has tasty food and good wine.We enjoyed staying here a lot! -

The rooms are very large and well equipped. There is everything you need on vacation. There is a small restaurant next to the apartment with music evenings and delicious Greek food. I highly recommend

Charming, over 100 years old house in typical and quiet village. Well equipped. Our family loved it!

I had a good time

Nice, cosy flat in the typical Korfu village, ideal place for relaxing stay, sigtseeing, even hiking. Nice beaches are also down the hill:). The owner is really charming and helpful.

This place is absolutely amazing!!! It's even better in person as it is on the photos. It has everything - washing machine, dishwasher, big bath, towels, professional hairdryer, fruits, homemade wine, great quality cooking pans, great big refrigerator, Netflix, wi-fi and all the necessary household stuff. It even has washing machine and dishwasher capsules. You will feel like home. It is spotless! The only thing better than the place itself is the landlady. She is absolutely perfect. She owns the local bar and will provide you with everything you need. Need a ride to or from the airport? Need a quad, car or a bike? She will connect you to the right people for the best possible price. We were 7 days in heaven! Thank you Athena! (That's her name) ?? Nothing. We were to many places but this time I am absolutely sure - it was PERFECT ?

none of us consumes breakfast. but the apartment had all the facilities. the location was perfect, just as we had requested.in the apartment had everything you could need for the first days of stay, such as detergents, food, toilet paper, a bottle of house wine, fruit. everything perfect A small characteristic village, very quiet. the apartment was located next to the village church and a public parking lot under the shade of olive trees. the quality of the beds was not good, and the cupboards were not well ventilated, there was a strange smell

Friendly host, exceptional location between the two most beautiful beaches in Corfu. Definitely recommend, Perfect for short hikes to agelocastro, georgioupolis beach and others.
