Surrounded by cypresses, pines, wildflowers and olives, Villa Jade is designed with respect to the local architecture, to seamlessly blend in with its surroundings. Indoors, large openings bring the outside in, while the design scheme makes abundant use of natural materials and calming white and cream tones. The open-plan living area has cosy sofas for indoor lounging, and there’s a sea-view terrace by the pool for sun-soaked relaxing with an ice-cool drink in hand.

Revelling at the great outdoors is at the top of the agenda in this blissful rural villa in Corfu: Out on the veranda, marvel in the panoramic, pacifying vistas over the sea, the mountains and the verdant scenery. In the heat of the afternoon, you can always plunge into the pool or retreat in the soothing shade of the villa’s outdoor lounges. Later on, enjoy sundowners against a tangerine sky before settling down for an alfresco dinner at the terrace, where you can watch the stars shine over the bay.

Equipped with the latest creature comforts, elegant yet unpretentious, this beautifully appointed villa in Corfu, is made to measure for stress-free holidays under the striking Greek sun.
