A very enjoyable stay in a lovely villa. The pool is large and therefore kids were thoroughly entertained. Angela and Ian were very welcoming and helpful throughout. All in all we loved the villa and felt the village was a perfect setting within easy reach of the vibrant Kassiopi.
Great location, great pool and well equipped villa.

A lovely spotless villa, very spacious and clean. Plenty of privacy with four good bedrooms. High quality construction and fittings. It is, effectively, two self contained appartments- one upsatairs and one down stairs. Large clean swimming pool. Beautiful setting. Parking for 2 cars. The walled drive can be awkward for a medium sized car. The property custodian was very helpful and friendly.

Fabulous villa, in a great location and with an excellent pool. We couldn’t have asked for more. Lovely hosts.
Beautiful villa in a great location, & perfect for our group of 8. Plenty of space for everyone, & excellent amenities. Ian & Angela, who manage the place, were very helpful, even replacing the coffee machine on the same day when it failed (bit of a First World problem!). We hope to be back one day

Thank you for your feedback and for choosing Posarellivillas, we hope to see you again at one of our beautiful properties!
The villa was secluded, spacious and comfortable, with a beautiful pool.
A ‘welcome pack’ of drinks and snacks would have been welcome, especially for a mid night arrival.

Lovely villa with great large pool. WiFi only works in the main room so in the downstairs bedrooms (all hit one) there is no WiFi and 1 bar of 3G if you are lucky. At least one bed very hard leaving us stiff every morning. Well equipped kitchen and very helpful caretakers available with advice at short notice

This was our second time at Villa Di Giovanni - the hosts were lovely and recommended some new places for us to try out to eat, one being featured on Rik Steins cooking programme. Go up to old Perithia and have a meal at “O Foros” and then down to Perithia village to “Jetatis” - on your doorstep and amazing quality and hospitality.
The villa is the most well equipped I have ever stayed in. Villa Cleanliness outstanding. For me personally I think it’s a prime location and the roads in and around are totally accessible. This is not the case for a lot of Corfu.
You do need a car - we hired a 9 seater transporter this time and had to park and leave it up at the entrance of the driveway as it is not the widest.

We visited Villa Di Giovanni mid Oct. The Villa is amazing and very awe inspiring when you first arrive. The driveway is quite narrow. We had the equivalent of a 5 door Fiesta and was just able to turn it around at the end. Otherwise it would be quite tough to reverse it back up the driveway. Something to bare in mind.
The pool area is absolutist fantastic, the only issue was in Oct the Sun didn't come across the pool until midday. But areas are in the Sun for sunbathing early on. Pool was bitter cold. But again I put this down to time of year.
The amenities in the Villa are above and beyond. Plenty of seating areas throughout. Amazing open space Kitchen, Dining & Living Area. Bedrooms are all good sizes.
We had a couple days of rain but the owners provide a viewing system on the TV which had extensive availability of UK Channels, TV Series & Films which was a great bonus.
We really cannot fault this Villa. It was a shame we couldn't use the pool but that was just down to time of year.
We loved it so much we are planning on going back early in the year in 2022!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in
Disliked: Location, listing accuracy
Think about somewhere else
Do not go by the pictures on this listing, we would say the photos are 15/20 years old and the place is extremely outdated. Wi-Fi poor. Pool looked good but wasps constantly buzzing around the grates on entry, wife and daughter got stung. Incessant noise from crickets which got in the house several times, creepy looking things. Patio doors looked like a burglary had been attempted. Very rural location, 65 minutes to a hospital. Extremely difficult to get taxis. Internal Staircase was wobbly and had a warning that kids should be supervised. Had to take patio cushions in on a night as the signs warned us feral cats would stain them. Old vertical radiator pipes sticking out of the floor in every room. 25 minute walk to nearest shop past derelict buildings, up a steep hill on way back. Can’t get car down driveway easily and very steep to get out. We left the villa after 3 nights of a week long stay.

Hi Paul, Unfortunately you were at the property at the time of the fires. The owner was extremely helpful and answered all of your queries before and during their trip. She suggested that due to the location it was advisable to hire a car but you did not want to.
You left the air conditioning on after leaving the villa with the windows all open and the electricity bill for that period was almost €800!
The owner also asked that the patio cushions were brought in at night and when the house is left unoccupied. They did not do this and as a result the cushions were covered in black ash.

We were very impressed how Villa Di Giovanni was presented and its quality of accommodation and facilities. It was immaculate in every way.Doug and Linda were amazing hosts and always available for questions and requests. Its location a mile from a lovely beach and a ten minute walk to local shops and tavernas, made our last minute get away complete. Thank you to everyone for looking after us so well. We loved Corfu

Lisa’s villa is absolutely beautiful inside and out. There were masks and gloves provided, and fresh towels halfway through. Sparking clean throughout! One amazing feature is that Lisa’s kitchen is full of different utensils and cooking equipment!
Great communication throughout the week. The villa was lovely.my family have enjoyed the week, especially the large pool.
A few local places to eat and shops nearby so we didn't have to go far for anything.

Lovely villa, the photos don't do it justice.
Lots of space, big bedrooms and big bathrooms.
Plenty of space for 8 people or 2 groups travelling together, as there is a kitchen downstairs aswell.
The pool is enormous, great location with a few shops and restaurants near by. But lots of privacy and not overlooked.
Communication with owners was very good. Any questions were quickly answered.

The villa was amazing and immaculate inside and out! The pool is the star of the villa and is huge, allowing for plenty of space when all 6 of us used it. Inside the villa there is also plenty of space and the rooms are a great size with plenty of storage places. Sea views from the upstairs balcony are an added bonus.
Location wise the villa is close to a lot of great restaurants, sandy beaches and local supermarkets (all within

Villa Di Giovanni is the place to be, it is perfectly located: 5 min from the wonderful Kalamaki beach, 10 min from Akharavi its restaurants and city life, 1h away from Corfou.
The villa is great, well-equipped, the pool is so big and so clean
We had a great time
We'll definitely come back
Excellent villa in NE Corfu, everything you would need, clean, spacious and well maintained. Excellent pool, mid week clean and linen change. Stunning views over the Ionian Sea to Albania. Thoroughly recommended

Had a wonderful stay at the villa! The pool is the star of the show as it is perfect and we had so much fun splashing about in there. The house is very spacious and spotlessly clean and there was plenty of room for all 8 of the adults who were staying. House is easy to find even at the very late hour we arrived although I would recommend the need for a hire car. Particular thanks for letting us stay a few extra hours on the last day so we could soak up a little more sun before our flight home in the evening!
