Experiences & Extras for Your Corfu Villa Holiday
A villa is the perfect base. What you do from it is up to you — and we can help arrange everything, before you arrive or once you're here.
Build Your Perfect Holiday
Combine your villa with any of the experiences below for a fully tailored stay.
Boat Hire
Most PopularHiring a small motorboat for the day is the single best thing you can do in Corfu. Head north from Kassiopi to find coves that no road reaches — drop anchor, swim, have lunch on board. No licence required for smaller boats. Our team can recommend the best operators near your villa.
Ask us to arrange →Skippered Yacht Charter
Full Day ExperienceFor a more indulgent day on the water, a skippered sailing yacht takes you further — to Paxos and Anti-Paxos, or along the Albanian coast. An experienced skipper handles everything while you swim in the Blue Caves and eat on deck. Available for full or half days.
Enquire about availability →Snorkelling & Watersports
Beach-BasedMost beach areas have water sports operators running jet ski hire, paddleboarding, and pedalos. The north-east coast's crystal water makes it excellent snorkelling territory — you can simply walk in from the beach and explore the rocky sea floor independently.
Get recommendations →Private Chef or Cook
In-Villa ServiceHave a professional cook come to your villa for an evening — or arrange a daily service if you'd prefer. Fresh local produce, traditional Corfiot dishes like sofrito and pastitsada, or whatever suits your group. One of the most popular additions to a luxury villa stay.
Browse chefs & cooks →Corfu Food Tours
Guided ExperienceExplore Corfu Town's markets, producers, and hidden tavernas with a local guide who knows where the Corfiots actually eat. Taste kumquat liqueur, local cheeses, and traditional pastries — and come away with a shopping list for the rest of your stay.
Enquire about tours →Welcome Hamper
Add to Your BookingArrive to a stocked fridge and welcome hamper of local produce — wine, olive oil, honey, local bread, and seasonal fruit. A simple touch that makes the first evening of your holiday feel exactly right. Available to add when you book.

Aurelia Mobile SpaOur partner Aurelia Mobile Spa brings professional treatments directly to your villa — Swedish massage, deep tissue, aromatherapy, and beauty treatments. Book a session for the terrace after a day on the water, or treat the whole group to an afternoon of spa treatments poolside.
