Jun 17, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The stay was a highlight of our two-month holiday in Greece. The villa was exceptional, set in the most beautiful grounds and so close to the sea and incredible beaches. The views from the terrace, of the ocean and surrounding mountains, were spectacular. The convenience of the villa to local supermarkets, and bus stops, made our stay so easy. Jane and Malcolm were incredible hosts, providing so many tips and going above and beyond to make our stay truly memorable. The villa has everything to make the stay very comfortable. We hope to be back one day to stay again. ##### Paul B. Stayed 11 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheila G.

The location is perfect - a short walk to the beaches and lots of lovely tavernas and Grocery shops. The villa was spotless, soft towels, fully equipped kitchen (plus a bottle of wine, bread, milk, fruit, honey and hot drinks left for me on arrival;)) The garden and terraces are beautiful and perfect for relaxing over breakfast and in th3 evenings. I would stay again without a doubt and 100% recommend the villa. Thank you to Jane;) ##### lucinda d. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lori C.

Aug 27, 2010 #### Really nice We spent 2 weeks in villa Stephanie and really enjoyed it. The Villa has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a US Kitchen. it's not that big but the outdoor is really nice, we had lunch and dinner outside thanks to the the so sunny weather and the BBQ! The swimming\_pool of the hotel is really nearby and the beaches are not faraway (by foot with 2 children was really easy!). The house is cleaned several times perweek by Yvonne that is really nice and helpful. The owner jane is relly nice and gives all informations needed. If you search paradse, i just recommend this villa. If you want a good homemade restaurant : right after Paleo direction Glifada the restaurant is 8-10 km on the left of this road (not the one next to kart cross but the one just after) and the name is A?xóvri??a : just perfect and so tasty and the women is so nice and funny ! ##### COSQUER M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful villa, amazing views Villa Stephanie is a real home from home - so comfortable and well-kitted out with everything you need to self-cater on holiday - full-size fridge freezer, well-equipped kitchen and efficient washing machine - also super comfortable, massive bed. But it’s the outside space that makes Villa Stephanie truly amazing. There’s a choice of two patio areas and gorgeous garden with table and chairs in the shade of olive trees surrounding the villa, plus a spacious veranda with a view over the bay. Stepping up here after a day of walking in the hills never failed to take our breath away! Jane is a wonderful host, always on hand (both before and during our stay) with advice and information, but never intrusive. We’ve rented several Greek villas in the past and Villa Stephanie has been the most wonderful by miles! Thanks so much Jane. We’ve only been back for a day and we are already trying to plan when we can come back! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 8 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gary I. Jul 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect insight into Greek life. From the initial enquiry, through the build up, arrival, stay and departure, Jane makes everything so easy and a real pleasure. Jane and Malcolm strike the perfect balance between provision of the support and guidance that you need as a new visitor to the area; and the freedom and space you desire to enjoy the wonderful villa, gardens and surroundings. The villa oozes Corfiot charm, with everything you need for a comfortable break. The AC in both lounge and bedroom were a god send at times, as were the shutters, blinds and fly screens. The gardens are wonderful, aromatic and full of wildlife. With so many areas to choose from, we preferred to relax on the top terrace with a choice of sun or shade, wonderful views over the sea and no mosquitoes. :-) Paleokastritsa is a lovely village with so much to offer. We were surprised just how many tavernas and swimming spots there were to choose from. Jane's recommendations were spot on throughout the fortnight we were staying. Our highlights were Nikos, Spiros & Gran Aladino. If you have a car, or fancy a walk up the donkey path towards Lakones, Il Pozzo has amazing food, backed up by stunning views down to Paleokastritsa and the sea. Jane delivered everything that she promised Villa Stephanie would offer and a whole lot more. We have returned to the UK so relaxed and wouldn't hesitate to visit Jane again if we decide we need to unwind. ##### Gary I.

Jul 23, 2014 #### Lovely, peaceful holiday My partner and I stayed at Villa Stephanie for a week at the end of June and had a lovely holiday. The property cannot be faulted, everything is there for you and the surrounding gardens are gorgeous and give it a peaceful, secluded feel. We were welcomed to the villa be Yvonne who put us straight at ease, organised when would be best for her to come and clean during the week and gave us her mobile number in case we had any questions - we did and these were answered very promptly. The are is easily walkable and if you follow the path down, turn right and keep walking past the boat hire centre you will come to Kathys supermarket which is considerably cheaper than the supermarket just around the corner from the villa steps. Continuing past Kathy's is the beach on your left hand side -and despite getting busy the beach is clean and the water is beautiful - turquoise. At the far side of the beach is a section of sun loungers which are owned by the restaurant and costs 7 euros for two sun loungers and a parasol and they will also bring you out a big bottle of cold water. There are tavernas just at the bottom of the steps of the path from the villa or you can walk further afield to bigger restaurants, though we were completely happy with the ones we visited close by - Horizon, Belvedere, Smurfs. We also had a BBQ one night using the big BBQ in the garden. One cloudy day we got the bus into Corfu town, it was only a couple of euros each and the bus stop with timetable is opposite the bottom of the steps leading up to the villa. If you do got to Corfu town, I would highly recommend visiting the British Cemetery - it is set in beautiful gardens and the inscriptions are so moving. It feels so calm and tranquil after the hustle and bustle of Corfu Town. We also walked up the donkey path to the village of Lakones, which is a hot and dusty walk up but the views are well worth it and it is downhill on the way back anyway!! We also walked up to the monastery which i s a nice sight and across to St Nicholas's panoramic hill. You can also hire boats for the day but I would just say be wary of Mario who runs this, he is out to get any money he can, and changes from friendly to menacing quickly, if things do not go his way. All in all, we had a fantastic week at this villa and thoroughly recommend the villa and area! Thanks again to Yvonne for all her help whilst we were there and Jane for making the booking process smooth and easy and to George the taxi man! ##### Alice G. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel H.

The cottage itself was well appointed and spacious, and a shared deck with a beautiful view of Corfu. But the best part of the stay are the hosts, who go out of their way to welcome you; they are very outgoing and just love to meet travelers, and are just the sweetest (and most interesting) people. When I think of our stay in Corfu, we did many things on the island that were great, but I always think of the hosts as a highlight of the trip. And her kumquat marmalade was delectable! ##### Daniel H. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claudie P.

Aug 26, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Set amongst the beautiful hills and minutes from countless coves and beaches Janes villa is set on the lower hills at Paleokastritsa. It has pretty gardens and various terraces, one of which has the most beautiful views over the marina, sea and various coves and rolling coastline. The villa itself is simple yet comfortable, and Jane had, on our arrival supplied us with fresh bread, cold water, juice, milk coffee etc. Jane herself has known Paleokastritsa getting on for 50 years, so can give plenty of information and advice, if wanted, on where to visit and how to spend your time. She is a person full of character and stories, well travelled, and clearly enjoys having guests, without beginning invasive. Whilst there, I felt home from home. We enjoyed the tavernas and restaurants, a local bus trip into Corfu Town - which I loved, and boat trips to the caves and Limni beach. The atmosphere is laid back and simple. The people friendly and easy going. It isn't 5 star glamour, but you do have a sense of being part of it, not just a tourist! I like that!

We did not rent a car so being able to walk to interesting destinations was important. Jane was wonderfully helpful in giving us advice on where to walk, where to eat, etc. The town itself was perfect for our wind-down from a hiking trip in the Zagori and Meteora region of Greece. The accommodations were nice and the elevated patio (seen in the photo on VRBO) is lovely. Jane is a very interesting person and we greatly enjoyed our conversations with her. Thank you Jane!

Jane and her husband Malcolm were charming; they made sure we had everything we needed plus suggestions for day trips, hikes and restaurants. The kitchen was fully functional; the bed was a lovely king size and there was a comfortable sitting area to relax in. But best of all was the amazing view down to the ocean from the top deck. ##### Sandra S. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Krishna N.

It has a well equipped kitchen and positioned in a nice peaceful location up on the mountains. The patio has an excellent view to the sea. It’s easy to get to the beaches with a short walk. Jane was a great host, she gave us many tips about places to visit and was readily available if we needed anything. We would definitely come stay again. ##### Krishna N.

Jane is the best host I have ever had! She was very welcoming and helped us in every aspect during our trip. She was always there for us whenever we needed help and went the extra mile for anything we asked! She helped us find great spots to eat and where to go around Paleocastritsa. The villa itself is amazing! It has all the amenities you could possibly need. We was a group of friends and slept very comfortably there. The view on the upper terrance is magnificent. You have a panoramic view of the sea, which takes your breath away! You can literally sit there for hours taking it all in! The location of the villa is ideal if you want to stay in Paleocastritsa. The main beach is a short walk from the villa as well as many restaurants. The bus stop is also a 2 minute walk which connects you to Corfu Town, which was ideal for us as we had to catch a coach to Athens from there. If you are planning in having a great villa surrounded by breathtaking views, I highly recommend Villa Stephanie! ##### Rron B. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Louise K. Jul 14, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful wonderful place Villa Stephanie is the perfect place for a vacation if you want to be close to beautiful beaches and lots of restaurants, but also like peace, quietness and Greek nature. The Villa is perfect for a family of 4, with all that you need, but the garden and patios are even more admirable, with fabulous views and beautiful flowers and plants. One of my favorite things was having an outdoor shower in the garden when coming back from the beach in the afternoon (0: Last not least I have to mention the owner, Jane, who lives in villa Nola, just a few steps ud from villa Stephanie. She is the most kind and accommodating host I have ever met. Always cheerful, ready to help and giving good advice, but never too much and very discrete, we actually miss her a little (0: ##### Louise K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claudia M.

Sie wohnt im oberen Haus und hatte immer tolle Ausflugs-/ Restauranttipps/ Schnorchelausrüstung für uns. Die Villa Stephanie liegt nur ein paar Stufen unter der Ausblickterrasse, hat 2 Veranden (Ost / Süd) und einen schönen Garten (u.a. mit Salat und Kräutern zum Verzehr) mit Grillplatz, Außendusche, großem Tisch und Liegen unter Olivenbäumen. Wir haben uns im komplett ausgestattetem Haus (incl. Strandtüchern und guten Mückenschutz-gittern), mit gemütlicher (Lese-) Beleuchtung und Heizung (3 x abends nötig) sehr wohl gefühlt. Ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen (z. T. direkt vom Haus aus). Die 3 kleineren Strände (sehr gut zum Schnorcheln) waren nur 10 Fußminuten entfernt und danke Vorsaison nur um die Mittagszeit gut besucht. Schöne Sandstrände haben wir immer nach unseren Wanderungen (3/4 Std. Anfahrt) besucht. Das Haus ist uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen. Andreas & Claudia, Mai/Juni 2019 ##### Claudia M.

Villa Stephanie is a great spot for walking to Paleokastritsa, Lakones, and the wider area. The villa is attractive, clean, and cosy and has everything you need with barbecue, terrace, and outside dining spaces. The flowers and herbs and greens which Jane kindly picked for us provide a beautiful setting. Jane was a generous but unobtrusive host who gave us lots of local info, made sure we had everything we wanted, and we enjoyed our fun and interesting chats. We wholeheartedly recommend :) ##### Joey H. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Georges D.

Oct 21, 2018 #### Villa Stephanie is a perfect place to stay for your Corfu Vacation What a stunning location! The villa is very comfortable, and a just a short walk down to the many tavernas and beaches in Paleocastritsa. The view from the upper terrace is breathtaking, and a comfortable spot to catch some sun and read. There is also a lovely garden under the shade of the olive trees. Jane is super helpful and friendly, nothing is too much trouble for her and she knows everything about the area. She’s a lovely lady with lots of stories to tell, but her main concern is the comfort of her guests. We love to walk, and walked miles along the donkey paths and roads between the villages. The views are always superb, with coffee shops and bars dotted along the way if in need of refreshment. We didn’t even bother renting a car, and took the bus to Corfu Town (a bargain at €2.5). The weather was perfect, even though we visited mid October when it can rain. We can’t recommend Jane and her Villa Stephanie highly enough, and hope to return very soon. ##### Clare P.
