Villa Marco

Everything excellent

Beautiful, comfortable and spacious, the house is very clean and well-equipped in every way. Nikos met us at the property with a warm welcome and lots of advice about the local area. He and Ioanna provided a welcome package of milk, juice, fruit and wine etc. which was much appreciated after a long journey. The stunning views are probably the best we have seen in a holiday rental - it’s difficult to tear yourself away! Lakones is a typical Greek village with lots of history and plenty of facilities - a good local shop and plenty of tavernas/cafes. We felt part of the community by the end of our stay as the locals were so friendly and helpful. Dolce Cafe, the cafe in the centre of the village and George’s Cellar were some of our favourites and we got to know the proprietors quite well. We also explored the area by foot, taking hikes, visiting the Angel Castle and walking down to Paleokastritsa. The pathway to Paleokastritsa is pretty steep and rustic so a good pair of shoes are useful. We walked back up the road which was much easier. Despite the climb, the walk is well worth it as the area is beautiful and you get to see it up close on foot. If we holiday in Corfu in the future, we’d definitely stay here again.

I do a lot of research when looking for a holiday rental including reading reviews by other travellers. It certainly paid off with Villa Marco. I really can’t think of anything that could have been better :-)

Wonderful house! And the host is amazing!

clean and spacious with a gorgeous view. Plenty of cookware and dish ware to make meals in the home. Small grocery store with homemade bread and local produce and a butcher within walking distance . Marco is a very nice host with a great sense of humor.
