Villa holiday rentals in Gouvia

A Dream Stay in Corfu – Beyond Expectations! We had the most incredible experience staying at Xenonerantzia! From the moment we booked, our hosts were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. Julia and Jorgos, went above and beyond to make our stay special. Not only were they always available for anything we needed, but they even cooked delicious meals for us! It felt like staying with family—but with the privacy and luxury of a 5* villa. All amenities were available for our baby as well from the baby chair to toilets seats .... Speaking of the villa — Simply wow. Xenonerantzia is absolutely stunning. The design, comfort, and attention to detail were increduble. Location is perfect to explore The view. It’s easily one of the best on the island panoramic, peaceful, and unforgettable the scenery is pure magic. If you're looking for a unique and truly memorable stay in Corfu, don’t hesitate—Xenonerantzia is the place. We’re already dreaming about coming back!

Amazing villa with some stunning views. We spent 8 nights here as a party of 6. Most nights we ate in and cooked on the stone built bbq. However, on the nights we did eat out we walked down the hill and jumped on the local no.6 bus to the local town of Benitses. The host was amazing and very accommodating. We loved using the pool, the tennis court and the gym. The host was so helpful, friendly and responded so quickly to our messages. We shall definitely be coming again!

Gerasimos was always very quick to respond to all our questions. Particularly our questions on local tavernas. He went out of his way to arrange food for our first night, he recommended a great driver and vehicles and supported us with transfer details. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable. Fantastic views from the villa and amazing sunsets. Great play area in the semi basement for the family with their young children… only shame no windows but the description states that. Kitchen area was a little small but we managed it. We had a fabulous week with the family… and would definitely return!!

This was a dream vacation, ever since my daughter and I watched the BBC series about the Durrells in Corfu. The Villa was gorgeous, huge and very comfortable for our family of 4. Having the 2.5 bathrooms was great. The views were insane, pictures cannot do it justice. I recommend renting an automatic car. The climb to the house is very steep and you may need to back up and pull over to let other cars by. Hans was an amazing host, extremely responsive, full of recommendations, and after we arrived, sent over a delivery of snacks and drinks after letting us check in early. We ordered pastries from the local bakery for delivery, loved the local Nissaki beach for morning swims, ate at the White House, Igera, Vitamins, took a private boat to Paxos and the blue caves, visited Kassiopi, Agni, and Barbati beaches. Book sun chairs at the Crystal Seaside experience. Hans helped my husband rent a bike, and he rode all over. Don't miss the Sea Calls Shop for souvenirs! Book this Villa!

Somos muy afortunados por haber podido disfrutar de la casa de Maria. Sus vistas son más espectaculares que en las fotos donde no se puede apreciar toda su magnitud. La casa muy acogedora, no le falta nada, está totalmente equipada y muy limpia. El aire acondicionado en todas las estancias es maravilloso con el calor de agosto. Una casa muy espaciosa que resulta incluso más cómoda y acogedora en real que en las fotos. En frente tiene una panadería donde hemos desayunado, hemos comprado pan todos los días, hemos hecho la compra básica diaria,… muy cómodo. María siempre ha estado atenta a cualquier necesidad o duda que nos pudiera surgir y contesta muy rápido los mensajes. El pueblo de Lakones es para mí una de las mejores ubicaciones de Corfu, aunque se necesita coche 100%. Hemos disfrutado muchísimo nuestra estancia.

Our stay at Thinalo in Corfu was absolute perfection! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the villa’s stunning sea views, private beach access, and luxurious yet cozy atmosphere. The spacious bedrooms, each with their own balcony and bathroom, felt like a dream, while the fully equipped kitchen and seamless indoor-outdoor living made every meal a delight. What truly set Thinalo apart was the incredible hospitality. Our host went above and beyond—adjusting our booking when travel delays shortened our trip and ensuring every detail was flawless. Katia, who welcomed us, was warm and professional, even arranging a last-minute boat rental that became the highlight of our trip. Waking up to the sound of waves, enjoying sunset dinners on the terrace, and swimming in the crystal-clear Ionian Sea just steps from our door—every moment felt magical. Thinalo isn’t just a rental; it’s a slice of paradise. We’re already counting down the days until we can return!

Such a wonderful holiday. Great views. Perfect location. Fantastic host. Very comfortable beds. Great kitchen. Pool warm, sun beds comfy. Close to beaches. 100% brilliant.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Lighthouse. Mark communicated really well as we firmed up flight dates which was really helpful. On arrival we could head straight in to the Villa which had everything we needed for a home away from home experience. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel was provided which was a helpful and unexpected touch. We only needed to bring beach towels, pool and bathroom towels were all provided which was great. We have been to the area for a few years and we love Agni hear by so Villa was well situated for us to visit Agni on foot or by car and just a short drive to all other destinations we wanted to visit. A great stay and hope to be back!

Beautifully comfortable Villa in a tranquil setting. Everything we needed was close by with a car (an hour at the most) Host was very helpful

A very high spec villa with wonderful finishes and great cooling system which made the villa comfortable even in very high temperatures. A stunning view and friendly local supermarket and bakery. The owner left very thoughtful food gifts and very helpful tips and advice for the stay and the villa was cleaned by a lovely lady mid week. I would not recommend the villa for anyone with younger kids and the pool more of a plunge pool to cool down rather than a place to stay and play for the whole day. Car essential given the steep hill up.

We loved our stay here! The villa was beautiful, very clean and has everything you need. Agni bay is great - a few restaurant options and boat hire from the bay. We didn’t have a car and didn’t miss it - local supermarkets even do delivery. It’s a lovely pleasant 20 minute walk to Kalami bay. Beautiful sunrises over Albania too. Ingrid was very helpful and friendly, and the housekeeping staff were great. (Do bring your mosquito spray!)

We absolutely loved our stay, it was spacious and with different outdoor areas to lounge or sit, great access for swimming, had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend, loved it.

This is one of the most beautiful villas that we ever stayed in. The rooms are all spacious and lovely. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and it’s the first time that I’ve stayed in a rental property where the knives were actually sharp so made preparing food a lot easier!

Very nice house , super clean, very good beds and crisp clean sheets.very well equiped kitchen and a view we did not expect… it seemed like a new house and we were the first to enter. On top of that also an amazing host Christos who was very flexible and reactief super Swift on all our “turi questions”…. In short a no brainer and well worth the money spent…

The villa was amazing with incredible views. Local taverna is a 2 min walk along the beach. The town is a 15 min walk with some great restaurants and marina. Property felt peaceful, private and comfortable. Katerina was very helpful and friendly. Wifi could be significantly better as was extremely slow and regularly dropped out, but that may just be the area. We will certainly return for another holiday here - we loved it!!

Everything was perfect - the villa, Kalami, Corfu. We can’t recommend this place enough - it was just stunning. The views are breathtaking, the pool and villa were immaculate, Sofia was so helpful with anything we needed. Kalami bay, with great restaurants and a well stocked supermarket, was 5 minutes from the villa. We loved it, thank you.

A luxurious private villa at the end of the road up on the Hill. You have your privacy far away from the traffic jams. Mind-blowing ocean view and great sunset vibes at the pool.

Beautiful villa in idilic surroundings. The pool area is amazing and great for kids with a warm outside shower to warm up after a swim. Due to the countryside location I would recommend having a rental car.

Had a fantastic time at the Villa with six adults and three young kids under 2. Really enjoyed the little playground and the garden in general. Host and his team were extremely responsive and helpful. Can highly recommend, especially if you are travelling with children. Great location as well, everything seemed just a short drive away.

A wonderful villa that is highly recommended. Dora and Eirini were perfect hosts. On arrival a thoughtful selection of supplies was provided. These were most appreciated. The villa is spacious and comfortable. All necessary amenities were available including a dishwasher and washing machine. Outside is a proper swimming pool that is very secluded. The terrace has amazing views with plenty of shade. Great for relaxing or dining al fresco. The villa is around 200m above sea level, reached by a narrow road. This was an experience to drive at first, but we soon became used to it. Overall: 10/10

Very nice home, everything is new, very clean, the pool is amazing, Stefanos is great very friendly and always there to help. Really recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Vicky's hilltop villa. The house was pristine, beautifully appointed, and well-laid out for our two families of four. Vicky was responsive and friendly and gave us welcome gifts as an added touch. The views from the rooftop patio of the sunset were outstanding. Everything about our stay was superb and memorable. We will certainly go back again.

Villaen var godt vedlikeholdt og hadde en flott beliggenhet. Pene og tilrettelagte uteområder og flott bassengområde med nydelig utsikt på dag og kveld. Rent og pent overalt i villaen og bra oppsett med møbler både inne og ute. Super aircondition i huset om man bruker det riktig. Bil trenger man om man skal ha bo her og man kan nyte turen både opp og ned til villaen. Verten var hjelpsom og fleksibel og rask til å svare ved spørsmål. Kort vei til strender og butikker med bil. Rolig område. Det var noe bygging i nærheten men ikke nevneverdig plagsomt. En flott restaurant med nydelig utsikt ligger på toppen. Siden det var slutten av sesong (midten av september) og en del regn og kaldere temperatur så var bassenget ganske kaldt og selv med oppvarming ble det noe begrenset bruk. Får komme tidligere neste gang. Takk for at vi fikk besøke!

This accommodation was amazing for our group, in a peaceful environment with a stunning view. More than that, the entire house was perfectly clean and the ustensils for the kitchen were of good quality. There is air conditioning in every room, except for the living room, but that was not a problem for us because it’s an open space. I would totally recommend it for anyone who needs a relaxing vacation, quiet and we also spent great time at the pool and cooked. The host, Angelika is helpful and recommended us a few restaurants. If I will ever visit Corfu again with a large group I will totally choose this house again.
