Overview
Set in an elevated position near the village of Viros, Villa Zoe is a contemporary four-bedroom property designed to accommodate up to eight guests. The villa combines clean architectural lines with expansive views, modern amenities, and a tranquil location just 6km from Corfu Town and within easy reach of several beaches. Suitable for families or groups of friends, the property offers a calm retreat while maintaining convenient access to the island’s cultural and leisure attractions.
Villa Zoe sits on a 4,765 square metre plot and offers a private, well-appointed environment. The design focuses on natural light, open space and simplicity. The expansive use of glass provides views across the surrounding landscape from almost every room. The interiors are furnished in a minimalist style with high-end finishes and technology, including underfloor heating, Dolby surround sound, console gaming systems and a comprehensive security setup.
Guests will find multiple areas for outdoor relaxation and dining, including a shaded lounge area, a covered barbecue and dining space, and sun loungers on a deck suspended above the pool. The villa also includes a shallow rooftop pool as a distinctive design feature.
Inside, the open-plan living space is defined by its crisp white palette and sleek design. The kitchen is equipped with premium appliances and a wine fridge, and the adjoining dining area features sculptural seating. The living area includes a modern fireplace, large-format glass doors, and statement furnishings. A games room with a billiards table and a perspex hanging chair offers additional space for relaxation.
The ground floor includes one of the villa’s four bedrooms, with access to a minimalist-style bathroom. Upstairs, the principal bedroom features a king-size bed, dressing area and en-suite bathroom. Two further bedrooms, both twin, share a contemporary jack-and-jill bathroom. All bedrooms maintain a simple, uncluttered design with high-quality linens and fittings.
Villa Zoe has received media attention, including a feature in The Times, and continues to attract guests seeking a modern, private setting with thoughtful design and access to Corfu’s broader attractions.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ZoeVilla Zoe is in a peaceful, secluded location near Viros, a historic inland village in central Corfu. Surrounded by green hills, the area offers tranquillity and natural beauty. Viros has gained recent popularity as a cultural hub, hosting performances from well-known musicians. The villa sits on a private hillside road, ensuring complete privacy for guests.
Conveniently located just 4km from Corfu Airport and 6km from Corfu Town, Villa Zoe offers quick and easy access to travel connections and the island’s vibrant capital. A wide range of beaches is within easy reach, including Perama, Benitses, Glyfada, Palaiokastritsa, Canal d’Amour, Agios Gordios and Halikounas. The mountainous area of Gastouri, home to the Achillion Palace, is also nearby. This 19th-century neoclassical palace, once the summer residence of Empress Sisi of Austria, is surrounded by lush parkland and features notable sculptures inspired by Greek mythology.
Benitses, located around 12km south of Corfu Town, is a charming coastal village with a marina, a shingle beach and various restaurants, bars and shops. It also offers water sports, a go-kart track and the Shell Museum, which displays a private collection built up over two decades.
Corfu Town (Kerkyra), a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most elegant and historically rich towns in Greece. With Venetian, Sicilian, French and British architectural influences, the town features mansions, fortresses, churches, and museums. Key landmarks include the Liston promenade, Saint Spyridon Church, Spianada Square, and the Old Fortress. Mon Repos Palace, the birthplace of the late Duke of Edinburgh, and nearby beaches, such as Faliraki and Mon Repos Beach, are also notable attractions.
Corfu is a lush, green island known for its diverse landscapes, rich history and cultural heritage. With hundreds of villages, churches, beaches and scenic spots, it appeals to a broad range of visitors. The island's vibrant ecosystem and natural beauty, made internationally famous by the Durrell family, continue to captivate travellers, as do its culinary offerings and the distinctive charm of its historic towns.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Zoe is a beautiful villa that suits families perfectly. You should keep an eye on small children though with the staircase, balcony, roof pool and main pool. There is a billiards table which is always popular and the gardens are lovely.
Family entertainment on Corfu is endless. There are many beaches to choose from, from hidden, quiet coves to magnificent, highly organised stretches of sand with a huge array of watersports. Some of the best East oast beaches besides Barbati are Agios Ioannis Peristeron, Perama, Dassia, Ipsos, Agni, Kouloura and Kalami. Kalami is the village where Lawrence Durrell lived in the 1930’s. It is now a small resort with several tavernas including the White House, where the Durrells lived. On the North coast, Kassiopi, Acharavi and Roda are very popular.
In Corfu Town, children enjoy climbing the walls of the Old Fortress, the Venetian fort built in the 15th century and the New Fortress. The fortresses boast fantastic views of the turquoise waters. Also in Corfu Town, you can take a trip in Kalypso Star, the glass-bottomed boat that leaves the harbour to explore the Ionian Sea’s fascinating marine life. A ten minute boat trip from Corfu Town takes you to the tiny island of Vidos where you can enjoy feeding the rabbits, seeing the peacocks, swimming and having lunch at the charming taverna.
Benitses is a lovely, friendly resort with lots of facilities and fabulous restaurants. The beach is pebbly and shingle with a good selection of watersports and waterside tavernas.
Children love Aqualand, Corfu’s water park. It is just the place for a thrilling day out and offers a wonderful combination of fun, relaxation and adrenaline. The park caters for all ages and boasts a 350 metre long lazy river, a wave pool, an interactive pool with a rope course and jacuzzi, kayaking, family rafting and extreme slides such as the Double Twister, Catapult, the 12 metre high Kamikaze slides and the Hurricane Twist. In total there are 51 attractions to enjoy. For the very young ones there is a baby pool, a pirate area and the kids fantasy island. You can buy a half day pass, a full day pass, a two day pass or a weekly one.
For a completely different, non-water based day you can head to the majestic Mount Pantokrator. It is the highest peak in Corfu and dominates the island’s northeast region. It boasts the most amazing views of the whole of Corfu Island. On a clear day you can even see Albania and Italy even though Italy is 130km away! You can drive or hike to the mountain top, stopping at traditional Greek villages on the way. The zigzagging mountain road starts halfway between Ipsos and Barbati Beach passing through Spartilas and Strinilas, one of the island’s highest villages. You can enjoy delicious local moscato wine from one of the village’s taverns. If you want to hike to the top you can start at the 14th century village of Old Perithia. It is a three hour round trip through thick forests, olive groves and rocky terrain. At the top you can visit the 17th century monastery.

Breathtaking Views
Villa Zoe is the best villa I ever had the pleasure of staying in. It is clean, spacious and modern. The garden is beautiful, you get gorgeous mountain and sea views - breathtaking views!
The owner and his team are amazing, they cater for your every need and more (nothing is too much for them day or night).
I will definitely be returning! -
007-style Glamour
An ultra-modern kitchen and dining room were white as tooth enamel; a giant TV was never once watched; a sculptural staircase of burnished iron and glass was suspended from heavy gauge steel cables, leading to cool en-suite bedrooms. It was all so lovely it was hard to know what to do first. On the Thursday we had dinner cooked for us at the villa by our own chef. His name was Sandro and he arrived with food enough for a Greek phalanx, and all we had to do was swan around and watch the sunset.
