Villa Description
Barbati Beach House — Exclusive to Prestige Villas of Corfu
We’re delighted to once again present the ever-popular Barbati Beach House, exclusively with Prestige Villas of Corfu for the thirteenth consecutive year. This much-loved beachfront retreat has recently undergone an elegant refurbishment, seamlessly blending timeless Corfiot charm with modern luxury.
The villa now boasts a brand-new contemporary kitchen, complete with integral appliances and sleek granite worktops, as well as five newly designed en-suite bath and shower rooms — one of which, in the annexe, has been thoughtfully adapted for guests with limited mobility.
Perfectly positioned on the water’s edge, Barbati Beach House enjoys one of the most sought-after locations along Corfu’s prestigious North East coast. A private gate offers direct access to the quieter end of Barbati’s beautiful beach, where the gentle sound of waves and the chorus of cicadas create an atmosphere of pure tranquility.
Set within lush gardens and stone terraces, the villa’s generous swimming pool area is framed by lawns, vibrant flowers, and an array of inviting wicker loungers. Guests can unwind beneath the covered pergola, dine alfresco on the expansive waterfront patios, or enjoy evenings around the new stone-built BBQ — all with breathtaking sea views as the backdrop.
Inside, the villa exudes an understated elegance — a classical interior with a touch of English charm, evoking the relaxed sophistication of a traditional island home. While its style remains timeless and authentic, the recent upgrades gently usher this beloved property into the 21st century, ensuring the perfect balance between comfort and character.
With cook service available and Barbati’s celebrated beachfront tavernas and bars just a short stroll away, guests can choose between intimate dining at home or enjoying the local cuisine by the sea.
In our view, Barbati Beach House is a truly magical place — our company director’s personal favourite — and an idyllic choice for families or groups seeking a peaceful, spacious seaside retreat where a car is entirely optional.
Create your most cherished memories here — Barbati Beach House never fails to enchant.

The brilliant white sweeping pebble beach of Barbati is the gateway to the prestigious North East Coast of Corfu, affectionately known as Kensington-upon-Sea. This resort has a real holiday vibe about it with a it’s upmarket beach side restaurants and trendy beach bars. Bahia Mare & Piedra del Mar to name just two, play relaxing chill-out tunes and offer a superb beachfront atmosphere where you can pre-reserve your sunbed both during the day and during the balmy evenings. Both restaurants have a superb menu and during high season a table reservation is recommended. For the water sports enthusiasts Barbati also has a superb water-sports centre and we would high recommend renting one of the small boats from either of the boat hire companies along the beach. From Barbati you can meander your way up the picturesque coastline, anchoring up in one of the many deserted coves where the water is crystal turquoise and perfect for snorkelling.

Sarah M, Norfolk UKDate of stay: September 2024 It’s hard to think how a villa holiday could be bettered. We’ve been to Corfu many times over the last 15 years and this was the best villa we’ve stayed in. For us as a group of 8 with ages ranging from 23 to 87 the location and setting was unbeatable. Superb service too - both from Prestige and Shelly the housekeeper.
Emma T, UKDate of stay: July 2024 The villa is in an amazing location with beautiful views and very tranquil. We had a wonderful week and really enjoyed the local restaurants and boat hire.
Mark C, AustraliaDate of stay: June 2024 We absolutely loved the villa. The gardens and its location make it very special indeed. A fantastic holiday.
Debbie M, UKDate of stay: May 2024 Our stay at Barbati Beach House was magical. The villa had everything we needed and more. The beach and sea were heavenly, and literally a stone’s throw from the house. The villa, garden and pool were kept immaculate by the housekeeper who was also a font of local knowledge and really helped us plan where to head out to on the boat we hired. All in all, an exceptional holiday! I would love to return at some point.
Alexandra G, NJ USADate of stay: August 2023 Barbati Beach House was perfection. Staying here was the best vacation we have ever had. The house was perfect, it has everything you could possibly need. The view is spectacular and Shelly and Spiros who maintain the house and property are incredible. They made our stay perfect. If we lived closer to Greece we would for sure be back every year. Highly recommend!!
Caroline K, Market HarboroughDate of stay: June 2023 Another wonderful stay in Barbati Beach House - the location is second to none and the house was kept spotlessly clean by the wonderful housekeeper, Shelley.
Emily S, Exeter UKDate of stay: June 2023 Beautiful villa, stunning location & lovely with family (including toddlers).
