Date of stay: August 2021 Fantastische Villa in toller Lage. Wir waren im Sommer 2021 auf „Blue Waters“ eingeladen und haben einen großartigen Urlaub verbracht. Die Villa lässt keine Wünsche offen und besticht mit einer besonderen Architektur, die es ermöglicht vom Swimmingpool, über die Aussenterrassen bis hin zu Küche und Wohnbereichen alles auf einer Ebene zu arrangiert zu haben. Das unglaubliche Grün und die Gartenanlage um die Villa herum sind ebenfalls traumhaft. Die Ruhe ist wirklich beeindruckend. Es gibt im Umkreis von 100 Metern keine Nachbarn. Dennoch ist man nur 20 Minuten vo Kerkira Stadt (Weltkulturerbe) entfernt. Der Meerblick ist insbesondere am Nachmittag außergewöhnlich schön, wenn sich die Farbe des Meeres in dunkles Blau verwandelt. (Vermutlich kommt daher der Name der Villa) Die Einrichtung ist sehr geschmackvoll uns lässt keine Wünsche offen. Wir kommen gerne (schon bald) wieder. Translated into English: Fantastic villa in a great location. We were invited to “Blue Waters” in the summer of 2021 and spent a great vacation. The villa leaves nothing to be desired and impresses with its special architecture, which makes it possible to have everything from the swimming pool to the outdoor terraces to the kitchen and living areas arranged on one level. The incredible greenery and the gardens around the villa are also fantastic. The calm is really impressive. There are no neighbors within 100 meters. Nevertheless, you are only 20 minutes from Kerkira city (World Heritage Site). The sea view is exceptionally beautiful, especially in the afternoon when the color of the sea turns dark blue. (This is probably where the name of the villa comes from) The decor is very tasteful and leaves nothing to be desired. We'll be back (soon)

Date of stay: July 2021 Easily could be a 5 star place. Booking team was great. Car was a MUST due to remote property and the lack of taxis that want to come there. Having no A/C in living area was problematic. Though we all tolerated the heat it definitely changed how we all felt about the experience. There was a cat that if you didn’t feed would meow excessively. You couldn’t keep it out. Our biggest disappointment was since we were so remote cooking was essential. Oven didn’t work and stove had one good burner. There was an active hornets nest that prevented us from our dinner one night. Our Response: Hi Lisa, thank you for taking the time to write us a review. We are sorry you felt the villa deserved a 3/5. We do clearly state on the website that car hire at Blue Waters is essential along with the distances to amenities. We also don't advertise AC in the living room - we do state on the website that there is AC in all bedrooms. With the design of the villa being a inside/outside experience the owner decided not to have AC in the lounge and opted for a high end ceiling fan which most of our clients have found more than acceptable. NB: for future guests information, a large AC unit has now been installed in the living room following this review Cats are part of Corfu life and are found at all villas and locals homes - we don't encourage guests to feed them but they are great deterrents for snakes etc. We have never received any complaints regarding the oven, there are 2 ovens both of which work, the bigger one of the two does take longer to heat up as it is a semi professional oven and requires extra power which is limited due to local infrastructure - we did have issues with the automatic ignition for one of the 5 burners but we did provide you with a lighter to light is manually. Chris visited you during your stay and showed you how to work it manually. We have also made the owner aware and we expect him to fix this before the next season. NB: for future guests information, a brand new Range Oven has now been installed in the Kitchen following this review. Many thanks and we hope to welcome you back to Corfu in the future.

Date of stay: August 2021 A slice of Corfu Heaven... Fantastic customer service from Prestige Villas. Any enquiries we had were answered straight away. Blue Waters is a fabulous family villa, we loved how compact it all was. The pool and surrounding gardens are simply beautiful. We would absolutely recommend staying here.

Date of stay: August 2020 Our holiday was perfect. Stunning villa in a great location. Secluded but close enough to the towns if you want to head out. Wouldn't change a thing. Annabelle and the team couldn't have been more helpful. Nothing was ever too much trouble! We also used Prestige Yachting to hire a catamaran one day - Amazing experience and would definitely recommend. No criticisms whatsoever but an FYI for future renters - The drive up/down to the villa is steep so if you are a nervous driver, it might not be the one for you but it's a very quiet road so once we had done it once, we didn't think it was bad at all. Couldn't recommend Prestige Villas of Corfu enough, I wish they covered other islands too!

Date of stay: August 2020 Super villa ! très bien équipée ! Pleine de charme, car bien décorée Bien agencée. Tout le monde peut avoir son intimité . Nous avons voyagé avec nos enfants en bas âge et ce qui est appréciable c’est l’espace entre le coin détente de la terrasse et la piscine. On peut les avoir à l’œil facilement La vue mer est belle . La literie est agréable. Seul bémol , mais je crois que c’est souvent le cas pour les villas dans ce pays c’est qu’il n’y a pas de volets . Donc jamais le noir complet dans les chambres . Nos enfants y sont habitués et donc le matin les réveils s’est fait plus tôt ... Sinon tout était parfait ! C’est avec plaisir que l’on retournera à Corfou et pourquoi pas à la villa blue watters ! Translation: Great villa! very well equipped! Full of charm, because well decorated Well appointed. Everyone can have their privacy. We traveled with our small children and what is nice is the space between the lounging area on the terrace and the pool. We can easily see them The sea view is beautiful. The bedding is nice. Only downside, but I think that is often the case with villas in this country is that there are no shutters. So never complete darkness in the bedrooms. Our children are used to it and therefore in the morning they woke up earlier ... Otherwise everything was perfect! It is with pleasure that we will return to Corfu and why not to the villa blue watters! Our Reply: Thank you so much for your review!! We would just like to note, although we don't have shutters on the windows, we do have black out blinds fitted on 4 bedrooms with light weight curtains, as well.

Date of stay: September 2019 Wow. What an incredible villa. My family and I stayed at Blue Waters Villa for 7 nights in September and had the most amazing time! Every year we look for a villa for our family holiday and each year our expectations go up. I can happily say that this villa exceeded all of our expectations and more! Everything about this Villa is stunning. From the pool area to the bedrooms and living space, everything has been planned out perfectly. We particularly enjoyed the outdoor space and spent so much of our time relaxing in the pool and having BBQs in the outside dining area. The villa is perfectly situated so that you can easily drive into Corfu town or travel across the island to some of the most beautiful beaches. We hired a 9 person boat for a day and I would highly recommend this if you want to see some of Corfu’s secluded beaches! As some of the other reviews have pointed out, the villa is located on a very steep hill and this was a bit daunting when we first arrived but after driving up and down a few times we soon got the hang of it. The only feedback I would give regarding the property is firstly that the dishwasher didn’t work very well and left the glasses with marks on them. We think it may have needed some more dishwasher salts perhaps? Secondly the outdoor dining area doesn’t have much lighting if you want to eat after the sun has set. We felt it could have done with a brighter light above the table just so you could see what you were eating. But I understand the lighting they have did make a nice ambiance if you were not eating. Other than that, I would highly recommend this villa and we will definitely be looking at coming back next year! We have found booking through Prestige Villas very straight forward. I would highly recommend. 🙂 Thank you for everything. Our Reply: Huge thanks for your review and for emailing, we’re so glad you enjoyed your holiday in our own home ‘Blue Waters’ Gosh you were right about the salt in the dishwasher, there is usually always a full box left under the kitchen sink each week but it appears not for your week, the housekeeper must have forgotten, we are so sorry. I wish we had known as we have lots of it in the store cupboard. It took us ages to clean everything by hand, I never realised just what a problem no salt can cause! We filled the salt to the top and everything came out gleaming on the next wash. That will teach us to make sure there’s always salt made available. We will also look into the lighting around the dining area, it's a new pergola this year and it hadn't been noticed or been mentioned before

Date of stay: July 2019 We had the perfect stay at Blue Waters. Jane and Annabelle were very helpfully and their personal touches made our stay even better. The villa is beautiful and well equipped. Recommend hiring a car rather than relying on taxis.
