Annalena - peaceful, luxurious, private pool, NE coast

Annalena is set on the stunning and exclusive North East coast of Corfu with it's crystal clear bays and exceptionally good waterside tavernas - we are 5 minutes drive to Kouloura with it’s fantastic fish taverna and 10 minutes from Agni, San Stefanos and Kassiopi.

We sleep up to 8 in four en-suite bedrooms - two have king sized beds, one can be either a super-king or two twins and the fourth has twin beds. In June and October we are very happy to offer a discount for 4 just using two bedrooms - please contact me.

The house is very privately situated down a quiet country lane in 2 acres of olive, almond and cypress trees in the hills above Kouloura with countryside walking on the doorstep - these are the hillsides that Gerald Durrell explored and little has changed from the TV series The Durrells - at Annalena you will see fire-flies, hear cicadas and if you're lucky see the tortoise that roam the hillside.

Annalena is our much loved second family home and has become a 'home from home' for many of our guests too some of whom are on their 12th stay with us. It has an extremely spacious uncluttered interior that exudes light and space, furniture is stylish yet comfortable and welcoming offering everything that you could want from a relaxing holiday home. There are shaded and covered terraces outside with every room offering stunning sea and mountain views . The infinity swimming pool is set on the terrace below the house and has a stone loggia complete with a fireplace at one end and a shaded dining area for 10 with an outdoor kitchen at the other so you can swim and relax by the pool all day long. There is an outdoor shower and bbq too.

The house is very well equipped and the layout offers extremely spacious accommodation for a large family and a good deal of privacy for two families travelling together.

Sunday is our changeover day - there are flights with BA and EasyJet - we are very happy to help with shopping before you arrive.

Our house-keeper visits 3 times a week or can provide a daily service for an additional cost. Babysitting can also be arranged.

We can also help with 'in house' catering and food shopping during your stay if you’d like including a home cooked supper waiting for you on your first night.

There is a kafenion within easy walking distance.

We are listed with EOT the Greek Tourist Authority and our EOT license number is 0829K122K8122001.

Perfect Greek family holiday
It’s been such a wonderful week at Annalena, what a discovery! It was the perfect place to spend our first family holiday in Greece. To start each day with Debbie’s breakfast, kindness and joy was an absolute treat. Renting a boat to discover the coast, followed by lunch at the (Corfu) White House was a special favourite of ours - even though leaving the beautiful house and pool area wasn’t easy! We hope all future guests enjoy it just as much as we did.

What an amazing villa!!!
Spent two fantastic weeks in the magical Villa Annalena. Everything was taken care of from start to finish and everything was so well thought through. The poolside outdoor kitchen had everything including a dishwasher which was so convenient. The Villa really is a fantastic home, very bright and airy, the rooms all had aircon but none of us needed to use them, the rooms are very cool. The house was looked after beautifully by Debbie and Rick and nothing was too much trouble for them. If you don’t fancy going out in the evening, ask Katerina and Demitri to cook some traditional Greek food, it’s really delicious and they are great company. The location, although it is very private and a little remote, is actually in the middle of everywhere you want to be. This part of Corfu is very exclusive and we found so many amazing beach/harbour side tavernas which are all within a 15 minute drive. Hire a car and have fun exploring!! Thank you to Janine and her team for 2 magical weeks, we will be back!

Stunning property
This villa is absolutely gorgeous. It totally lived up to expectation. Due to Covid 19 we had to book at the last minute, Monday to travel Friday. Janine was wonderful. She was straight on the phone helping me with the extra paperwork that Greece required, offering guidance on the weather and temperature and offered loads of information about the house and the locality once we arrived. We were offered a complimentary dinner, on arrival, for our party. We were sent an wonderful choice of dishes. Even at such short notice the meal was cooked and left in the fridge, along with dessert and wine. We have stayed in many beautiful villas around the world, but never have we been welcomed with our first nights meal. This is such a wonderful extra and it was both delicious and greatly appreciated. The villa is really beautiful, wonderfully maintained and immaculate. Janine has made so much effort with the notes she leaves. She has thought of everything! We went to places and Tavernas that were recommended. All were excellent. In spite of the situation all the Tavernas in the many stunning coves were open. Every meal was truly delicious, with excellent service. Janine checked in with us, by text, every few days to ensure we were happy, offer suggestions and help. I told her we were using the fireplaces as it was chilly at night. Having drinks by the outdoor fireplace was a real highlight of our evenings. With-in 24 hours of me telling her this, extra wood was delivered to ensure we did not run out. The views are breathtaking. We enjoyed using all the different sitting spots. The kitchen was well equipped. We cooked every night and never found we were missing the implements or utensils we needed. The outdoor kitchen is equally well stocked, another real bonus. We were travelling with a 7 month old baby. A cot was no problem and two highchairs were in situ, one in the house and one in the outdoor kitchen, another very thoughtful plus. Corfu was not a place we had ever considered going to. What made us decide to chose Corfu, out of our few options, was this property. Having spent two weeks in the middle of October at Annalena, I would highly recommend this property and Corfu. With Janine, you are totally in caring hands!

Stunning villa
An absolutely breathtakingly beautiful villa that lived up to all my hopes! Stunning views and a truly lovely house and grounds. We had such a great time, 5 of us. We went mid-October and went walking, sunbathed and swam on beaches, drove round and took a boat along the coast to each beach for the day. We went to a couple of tavernas [one shut each day for the winter as we were there. A day trip to Corfu town and a couple to Kassiopi provided all of the culture and shopping we needed and we brought home a stunning olive wood board with bark edges as well as other lovely souvenirs, photos and memories. Games and DVDs and music at the house provided ample entertainment and we loved cooking together. Highly recommmended for your dream holiday in Corfu if you want to get away from it all.

Great, homely house where we felt relaxed the moment we walked through the door.
Great experience. The owner was really helpful and were those who were looking after the property on the ground.

Beautifully situated and luxuriously appointed villa
Our family spent a very happy week at this wonderful villa. With 4 spacious bedrooms, beautiful communal areas and excellently equipped kitchen, you could not ask for more. The villa has wonderful views towards Albania and is secluded and totally peaceful. However a couple of well stocked small supermarkets are within an easy 10 minute drive away, as are some great tavernas. The owner Janine attends to every detail and we could honestly not find fault with anything. Despite very mixed weather we had a fabulous week and would love to return.

Lovely property
Although a narrow & steep drive up the hillside to the property it was well worth it! The property itself was spacious & comfortable & the views were just breathtaking. We had a lovely week.

A wonderful property in a superb location - exceeded all expectations.
Annalena is a beautiful property in a wonderful location with far reaching views over the Ionian Sea to Albania. We were a family of eight (three teenage children) - spacious bedrooms all en suite together with balconies - and spectacular views. The pool was very much enjoyed by the whole family and many happy hours were spend lazing or swimming in the sunshine always finishing with a BBQ and watching the stars, late into the evening. The location was easily accessible to the many little coves and the supermarket. A trip one evening to Corfu Town was only an hour away and then back to our peaceful location - Annalena. We hired a boat for the day which we loved exploring the many little bays and the children loved snorkelling and discovering the underwater cave. Enjoyed a lovely lunch in a waterside taverna. A very happy holiday.
