Location
About the surrounding area of Villa Jacaranda BlueOn the eastern coast of the ever-popular island of Corfu, the village of Benitses – or sometimes Benitses – is known for its pretty harbour and mountain backdrop. The marina area is the centre for the village’s visitor-friendly nightlife, and you will find quite a few bars and tavernas around. A large proportion of the village’s population work in tourism, although things are a little more relaxed now than they were some years ago. You have everything you are likely to need there, from restaurants and cafés to car rental and gift shops.
The village’s proximity to the island’s capital, and its nearby airport, is another reason for its popularity. It will only take about 20 minutes to make the journey down the coast. There are numerous beaches in the area too, and the coastal road which provides a scenic ocean view makes it easy to go looking for them. Another local landmark is the grand Achilleion house and gardens, originally built as a summer palace for Empress Elisabeth of Austria, and as architecturally impressive as you would imagine.
Corfu town itself Is just a little further north and has a few notable sights of its own, such as the Royal Palace which now houses a Museum of Asian Art, and the mighty fortresses – an ‘old’ and a ‘new’ one, although they both date back to the 1500s. A climb to the top of either will reward you with a spectacular view, surely a must when you’re visiting the town. Just outside the town is Mon Repos, another house with a Royal connection, as the birthplace of the Duke of Edinburgh.
Perhaps one of the greatest pleasures of Corfu town is taking a stroll along the Esplanade. You can take a break in the large Spianada park, where most public gatherings in Corfu take place, or in one of the cafés of the Liston, overlooking the well-kept lawns of the Esplanade.

The Island/Getting There
One of the largest and greenest of the Ionian Islands, Corfu is far more than its trademark blue-hued seas and sandy coastline. With its UNESCO World Heritage status and unbeatable strolling opportunities, there is no better place to start exploring than the main town and its historic old quarter, where ancient churches, scattered ruins and a handful of museums mean Corfu’s layers of history can be found just about everywhere. And if you’re in need of a cosy abode, take a look at our flawless villas in Corfu.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesA family-friendly villa for sure, Villa Jacaranda Blue is a place the kids will fall in love with. Its wonderful panoramic sea views and spacious gardens are just part of the appeal – there’s also a magnificent infinity pool with easy step access, and a big barbecue for family meals in the fresh air. Inside the house, you will find two TVs with satellite channels, DVD and Wi-Fi, and lovely twin bedrooms which are ideal for siblings to share. Even better, it’s all just a short walk from the beach –one of many they can discover during their stay on Corfu.
A 25-minute drive away, there’s an easy day out waiting for you at Aqualand, a big water-park with plenty of colourful rides, slides and pools, all in a very pleasant setting. Continuing the water theme, you could also check out the Corfu Aquarium, located on the west coast at Palaiokastritsa, or perhaps take to the ocean yourself on a glass-bottomed boat tour.
There is also the chance to cross to Vidos island, only 10 minutes from Corfu, where the youngest will love seeing the rabbits running free, and older ones will enjoy swimming at the beach.
Corfu Town itself is full of great places to eat, so there are plenty of waterfront cafés to stop at, as well as the big-name burger joints and coffee houses. The centre offers well-known stores too, while a lovely park, Spi
