Villa Petra is surrounded by completely private gardens, where the natural sculpture of the rocks combines with the twisted trunks of the mature olive trees to create a haven of typically Greek beauty. Paved paths and steps wind gradually down to sea-level, where there is a gate to the beach.
 

Overview

Interior
, Overview, Villa Petra, Corfu, Agni Travel Overview, Villa Petra, Corfu, Agni Travel

Villa Petra has evolved over the years since it was first built as one of the first-ever foreign-owned villas in Corfu. A great deal of thought has been put into its recent refurbishment, and it is now quite superb. Its colour schemes reflect the hues of sea, sky and shore, and the entire ambience of this fabulous villa is one of peace, comfort and happiness.

On the ground floor, the entrance hall leads via few marble steps, to a large living room with dining area, opening on to a sun terrace with separate dining terrace. On the same level as the hall is a large, very modern kitchen with pantry, and shower room. Upstairs there are four bedrooms - two with double beds and two with twins, and two bathrooms.
A separate annexe opening off the pool area accommodates two people, and has its own kitchen area and separate bathroom. The villa has been designed for those with walking difficulties in mind, although it does have a number of steps. It is not, however, suitable for young children.

The sun terrace, just outside the living room, overlooks the pool and the sea - a fabulous place for breakfast or evening drinks! Very private, with a view that has scarcely changed in all these years - olive and cypress trees, glittering blue sea.

Nissaki Corfu

Nissaki is a small, pretty resort with a horseshoe-shaped beach of fine pebbles, offering excellent swimming and water sports. There are several tavernas specialising in Greek cuisine. A small harbour shelters the many little fishing boats that are moored there and there is a jetty/collection point for the Taverna Agni water taxi which offers an evening service to Taverna Agni and a twice-weekly trip to Corfu Town (a small charge is payable to help with the running costs): Nissaki Corfu

Private Beach

Private Beach, Villa Petra, Corfu, Agni Travel

Although no beach in Greece is strictly private, the beach in front of Villa Petra is quiet and fairly unfrequented. A gate separates it from the villa gardens.
From here, it is a comparatively easy walk to the tavernas at the beach of Nissaki.

What Is Nearby

Kaminaki Corfu

Corfu's north-east coastline is spectacularly beautiful, but has remained uniquely unspoilt in spite of its celebrity-status. Kaminaki is one of the small and enchanting bays that stud this coastline like jewels on a necklace. Still only a hamlet, with village houses occupied by their original local inhabitants, it has a mixture of modern and converted accommodation, two unpretentious tavernas (and others within easy reach), and water of Caribbean colours that laps against a gently shelving beach of pure white pebbles. One small shop and a complete absence of noisy evening entertainment are other virtues - evenings end here with a quiet drink overlooking the sea, conversation with new or old friends, and perhaps a skinny dip to round things off! Kaminaki has its following of faithful visitors who return each year, and it is not hard to see that anyone could soon become addicted to this very special combination of exquisite scenery, perfect bathing, water sports suitable for kids and adults, and sheer, undemanding relaxation in a friendly atmosphere. Hire a boat and explore the lovely bays along the coast, or stay put and unwind - Kaminaki makes it all possible. Kaminaki Corfu

Agni Bay

Agni Bay is home to Taverna Agni and Agni Travel.In Greek Agni means un-spoilt and this describes Agni perfectly - just three Tavernas (each with their own jetty for mooring up to) and a sprinkle of local buildings. The bay is reached mainly by rented motor boats, although recently there is now a narrow road down into the bay: Agni Corfu


Each evening we operate a Speed Boat taxi service, from surrounding bays to Taverna Agni. The above video describes the experience.

Kalami

The bay of Kalami nestles below the hills of the North East Corfu and is famous for both its beautiful beach, and Lawrence Durrell's 'White House'. A popular destination for couples, Kalami is also ideal for a family holiday with tavernas, safe swimming, water sports and boat hire - everyone is catered for! Kalami Corfu
