The Ionian Islands region
The Ionian island of Corfu, known as the ‘Emerald Isle’ due to its lush green countryside and crystal clear coves, holds many unexpected and unforgettable surprises where you will discover the legendary friendliness of the locals that will undoubtedly make your stay on the island a memorable experience.
Corfu / Kalami area
Kalami is without doubt one of the most picturesque bays on the island of Corfu. It is famous for once having been the home of the writer Lawrence Durrell at the White House on the beach front which is now a taverna. Surrounded by olive groves and cypress trees this small coastal village offers both tranquillity and lively local entertainment in an unspoilt, typically Greek location
Having such an enviable location Stratigos courtyard opens out directly onto the pretty pebble beach, with its crystal clear waters perfect for snorkelling; sunbeds are for hire and watersports available or you can wander to one of the excellent tavernas for a spot of lunch.
Kalami has everything you will need traditional tavernas, 2 cocktail bars providing evening entertainment, pool bars for refreshments, snacks and drinks during the day and night, supermarkets, gift shops and tourist offices. In the evenings aside from entertainment to be found in the village, from the small jetty right outside the property boats come in each evening to take you (free of charge) to the neighbouring bay of Agni where there are a further three tavernas to choose from.
There are other fabulous waterside tavernas nearby in the picture postcard bays of Koloura and San Stephanos, Krouzeri and Kerrasia. Should you wish to venture a little further Kassiopi is only 10 minutes drive/sail away and has many shops, restaurants, bars/clubs, beaches, and a pretty harbour area if you feel the need for something a bit livelier.
There are 2 Aquaparks within easy reach, a golf course just outside Corfu Town, horseriding is available with Dimitri from the nearby taverna and scuba diving plus windsurfing is available in Kassiopi.
There are many things to do in Corfu but for sight seeing Corfu Town is not to be missed. It is a wonderful place to visit having plenty to see and do with its Italianate arcades, Venetian fortress and cobbled alleys. It boasts everything from international boutiques to traditional craft shops that line the streets and stay open late into the evening. Aside from shopping you can watch an afternoon of cricket sipping coffee from below the arches of the Liston Arcade or stroll around the square and admire the medieval churches and forts. That is not to mention the Corfu Trail (see www.corfutrail.org) for those who love walking and many other attractions on the island.
How to get there
Flights can be obtained from most UK airports between May and October. When searching for flights the name of the airport is Corfu (it is located in Corfu Town and is sometimes listed as Kerkyra), the main flying days from the UK are either Monday or Friday. There are a couple of flights that leave on Tuesdays or alternatively it is possible to reach the island via Athens, however most of our properties have their changeover day as Monday or Friday accordingly.
During the Winter Season (November to April) at present there are no direct flights to the island therefore you would have to fly via Athens. You can also travel to Corfu by ferryboat from both Athens and Italian ports such as Venice and Brindisi throughout the year.
Corfu Village Properties are a member of the Skydeals VIP Scheme. Through our membership our clients are able to book discounted flights. Owned by Thomson they are one of the leading flight only specialists in the UK. You can visit their website www.skydeals.co.uk however please note that you will need to phone their dedicated hotline 0500 011 747 and quote our membership number VIPS3738 to obtain a discounted fare.
We do advise you to shop around as finding the cheapest flight is not an exact science and there does not seem to be a trend. The prices offered will depend on things like the time of year booked, how far in advance and which airport you travel from etc. If you have any difficulty in finding a good price and would like some assistance with travel arrangements then please do not hesitate to ask we are happy to help in any way we can.
