Spacious, charming villa and gardens
Koutsounada House is delightful - tastefully designed and furnished, with plenty of space and a sociable, open-plan layout which lends itself brilliantly to groups who want to spend time together. The gardens and pool (which is very large and fresh) have been thoughtfully landscaped, and more than make up for the absence of a sea view. The villa is located in a picturesque corner of the island, which is very peaceful and has various interesting beaches and towns within walking distance or a short drive away. The area was perhaps a little more remote than we had anticipated, and we couldn't find a proper supermarket nearby, but we made do with the smaller convenience-type shops. The taverna at the end of the lane was very accommodating and serves great traditional Greek cuisine. Our other recommendation would be to hire a boat (we used Sotiris in nearby A. San Stefanos) so you can explore the breathtaking coast and visit some of the excellent waterside tavernas.

As a family group (2 parents and 3 adult daughters plus their partners) we stayed for the first week in September and it was blissful. We loved the decor of the pretty house which was as described and clean,spacious and well equipped. The pool is large and we spent many an afternoon chilling there. An early morning scenic coastal hike to Agios Stefanos is fun and you can grab some breakfast there and walk back or get someone to pick you up. Can recommend renting a boat from Avlaki Boats (on the beach) for the day. Communication both with the owner Patricia and the housekeeper Natushka was excellent and informative. We ate at both beach tavernas but far preferred the vibe/food at Cavo Barbaro. We hope to return and would love to stay for longer next time.

A wonderful stay at this beautiful house to celebrate my wife's milestone birthday. A week wasn't long enough! As a family of 8, we found the house to be spacious, comfortable and well equipped. We made good use of the amazing pool and loungers. The location is perfect for a peaceful stay. 5 minutes walk to the lovely Avlaki beach for a morning swim. The bonus was having a great Taverna, Cavo Barbaro at the end of the lane. They looked after us very well. We hired a car and found it essential for supermarket runs and to explore this lovely corner of Corfu. Thank you from the Speirs family for a wonderful stay!

Lovely villa in a superb position.
A wonderful week in Corfu staying at Koutsounada House. The villa was very spacious for 8 of us and the location behind Avlaki beach was perfect. The outside area feels a little overgrown around the house, so we chose not to dine outside due to the number of wasps. We spent one day by the pool which is fantastic and has plenty of very comfortable sun loungers. The house itself is very well equipped and everything works well, although the hot water is limited. Brilliant restaurants within walking distance such as Cavo Barbaro which is beautiful in the evening. Hope to return next year!

This is our third two week stay at this fantastic villa and we have loved it more each time. The location is perfect with fabulous beaches and restaurants close by, including Kassiopi, which has many great places to eat and is only 10 minutes away by car. If you want to chill, this is fine too as the villa has everything you could possibly need. It is quiet with many cool places to sit outside and read, as we like to do, a well equipped kitchen, a barbecue, table tennis and air conditioning throughout. We thoroughly recommend this villa, we will be back and if we could give it a 6 out of 5 we would 😎

Wonderful Koutsounada
Our third visit to this wonderful villa on Avlaki bay. Everything was as good as previous visits which will ensure we come back many more times. Our grownup family for the first week and friends for the second is a winning combination. We visited our usual restaurants (Cavo barbera, Thomas’s, Nikolas, Kochili, and our brand new favourite, Kima in Kassiopi). Highly recommend.

Lovely stay in October
My wife and I stayed in the villa with our two girls (3 & 5) and family friends (2 further adults + 2 kids under 4). We found the villa to be comfortable, spacious, spotlessly clean and well equipped (especially the kitchen Vs other rentals we have experienced). The villa is quietly situated back from a nice beach, with two decent tavernas in walking distance. For shops, Kassiopi town and further restaurants, a car is certainly required but the drive is easy (5-10 mins). We discovered numerous lovely beaches in the area (some with parking and some requiring a hike to reach). The villa’s pool looked great but was too chilly to use in mid October (even though the outside temp was a lovely 25C). The sea meanwhile was delightful. The northeast is rustic, quiet and unspoilt by tourism and this villa made a great base for 2 families with young kids. Also really appreciated easy communication with the villa manager and 2 visits from the cleaner midweek to clean / change beds / change towels. Many thanks.

Family reunion
We stayed at Koutsounada House 10 years ago and everything was just as we remembered-only better. The addition of the ping pong table went down especially well with the young people! Communication from the owner and housekeeper was excellent, as before. Plenty of space for the 7 of us, and never a problem finding a quiet shady spot to read. In summary, Koutsounada is clean, spacious, comfortable and in an ideal spot -walking distance to the beach but nice and quiet back at the house!

5* Villa highly recommended
We have just returned from our 2nd 2 week holiday in this exceptional villa and like the first visit, we discussed options to return whilst we were still there as we all loved it so much. We have already made an enquiry and plan to book this property for July 2023. The property is exceptional in every respect and it is only a five minute walk from Avlaki breach and an excellent taverna. It is also ideally placed to explore the wonderful north east coast of Corfu, including the many restaurants in Kassiopi, only a short drive away. If you decide relaxation is for you, then there is an excellent pool at the villa, a lovely open plan living area, every cooking implement you could possibly need etc. The property is also spotlessly clean. In summary, book this villa, but please wait until we have secured our spot!

Excellent accommodation if you want a top quality villa in a quiet location. The 2 restaurants / tavernas next to the beach and 5 minutes stroll away are both excellent. If you have a car then this a great base from which to visit Northern Corfu but it is also fine to just kick back with friends.

Another glorious holiday
We returned to this wonderful villa after a gap of 4 years. It was like coming home to an old friend. All every bit as good as my last review (see review posted June 2018) I forgot how lovely the pool was and the proximity of the sea and the fabulous Cavo Barbaro (taverna at the end of the drive) We had friends and family staying and the days slipped by seamlessly. Even the excitement of a biblical storm and a 6 hour power cut did not diminish our enjoyment. Also highly recommend Kochili taverna in Stefano- which we visited several times.

This is such a brilliant place to be based for exploring this amazing island. The house has every home comfort, we even had a log fire to keep warm in the evening. The pool and garden are a delight. The property is cared for so well and attention is geared to making the guests stay perfect. We wanted for nothing. Its in a beautiful location, coming down each morning from the house to the view out over the bay is breathtaking. We particularly recommend checking out the walks that are written about in a booklet in the house, stunning scenery off the beaten track. Thanks for a lovely holiday.

Perfect family stay
This is a beautiful house and suited us - 6 adults - perfectly, though would work well for up to eight. We loved the pool and various spaces to sit outside, to eat, read or sunbathe, and made good use of the table-tennis and bbq. Perfectly situated for peace and calm, but an easy stroll to the beach for swimming, boat hire and excellent taverna.

Fabulous villa in fantastic location
We are a family of five (21, 19, 14 and the parents!) who stayed in Koutsounada for two weeks from 7 August 2021 to 21 August 2021. The villa is fabulous, having the benefit of being quiet but close to a wonderful beach and two tavernas. The property also benefits from easy access to Kassiopi, the spectacular scenery and all the other attractions of North West Corfu. If you want to hire a boat, as we did, you can do this within five minutes walk from your front door. The property is exceptionally clean and has everything you could possibly want for a family holiday. The outside space is fantastic with multiple shady areas, a nice garden, a lovely big pool and table tennis for the energetic. Inside the downstairs area benefits from a high roof and open plan layout with many doors, which is ideal for a hot summer in Greece. There are four good sized bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms or their own bathroom and air conditioning for the warmer nights. The whole place is tastefully decorated and furnished to an exceptionally high standard with a large fridge freezer and plenty of cups, glasses etc. along with a great barbecue and anything you could possibly need for a night eating in. The owners could not have been more helpful with the booking process and were particularly understanding with the COVID situation, giving us on the ground information before we arrived. The local management team were really helpful and made us very welcome and the cleaners also did a superb job. We decided to book again before the end of our second week and it therefore goes without saying that we would have no hesitation in recommending this property, it is superb and 5/5 in every respect!

Koutsounada is a comfortable house set in a mature, secluded plot with large inviting swimming pool.
Koutsounada is a comfortable house set in a mature, secluded plot with a large inviting swimming pool and plenty of covered seating areas to enjoy sunny days and evenings. The built-in barbeque and outdoor ping pong table were great for our family. Avlaki is a beautiful verdant bay and Cavo Barbero was a charming taverna. Natushka was very easy to communicate with and we also thank her for posting back my daughter’s bikini which was left behind. Patricia responded very quickly and was very flexible with us given Co-vid travel restrictions to Greece at the time. She even bought the house an espresso machine to fix my caffeine cravings. Thank you. Some points to consider: I would not describe the villa as a luxury villa - The house is in need of a lick of paint and some general maintenance; rusty dishwasher, timer broken on oven and various chips here and there etc. No black out blinds in the master bedroom, only shutters. All windows have mosquito nets which is great. WiFi is slow unfortunately. The house is clean but not ‘professionally’ cleaned; we arrived to find an Ant’s nest in the kitchen and a few giant grass hoppers in two of the bedrooms. Plenty of clean bedding and towels provided. To quote Downton Abbey’s Dowager Countess, ‘The problem with nature is there’s so much of it.’ We were fastidious with door and window closing but still found lizards, centipedes, grass hoppers and tree frogs in the house. I’m all for releasing my inner Gerald Durrell but found the 20-30 wasps around the swimming pool all day not conducive to relaxing. Eating outside was stressful and a couple of times we had to abandon eating outside as the wasps’ resolve was greater than ours. Please note the road to Avlaki Bay is a rocky and unlit road, fine for adults but do bear in mind if travelling with very young children or elderly relatives. We enjoyed our time as a family at Koutsounada and clearly it suits the needs of the owners, however at this price point it would benefit from an improved level of general maintenance and upkeep to meet the expectations of paying guests too.

Perfect location - secluded spot just 3 minutes walk from the beach and very welcoming tavernas. Yianni and Natushka were friendly, hospitable and very responsive. Our two boys loved the pool, the table tennis table and the PS2. And the fact they didn't have to share a room. Loved it, seriously considering re-booking and bringing a granny next time!

Family celebration holiday
Our family of 7, 6 adults and a 3yr old girl had a terrific holiday at the villa, which was exactly as advertised. Plenty of room for everyone, indoors and out. The outdoor seating areas allow everyone to have their own space, while the dining options inside or out allow great flexibility. The BBQ was excellent. We enjoyed the table tennis, when the swimming activities in the lovely pool had finished. (This was cleaned everyday). The closeness of the beach was a real plus, a short walk as was the Taverna Cavero Barbero, where we enjoyed meals and drinks overlooking the sea. Lovely not to have to pack up for the day and walk down for a swim or drink. We enjoyed hiring a boat and making use of the jetty nearby, visiting various coves, for swimming also lunch, where the local restaurants are very helpful in securing the boats when you visit The sea was very clear, although the conditions got quite windy from 3pm everyday, the local sailing school indicated it was the thermals from the hills, advise, do your paddle boarding in the morning...we didn't!! The house was very comfortable and we would have no hesitation in recommending, thank you for a fantastic week. Towners
