Description

Villa Loukia at Kelia, luxury villa, in Walking Distance of Kassiopi, Corfu - Peaceful, very Private Location, EOT Reg. Aiming to be Carbon Neutral.

Villa Loukia is located in a stunning position, nestled into the quiet olive covered hillside above Kassiopi in the hamlet of Kelia. The views from the villa across the bay of Avalaki and to Albania beyond are truly stunning. The property was new for 2008, having been bought by an English family with many years experience of holidaying in Corfu. Attention has therefore been paid to equipping the villa with all the necessary equipment for a relaxing and happy holiday whilst making sure it remains comfortable and practical for both couples and families alike. The villa is also equipped with items such as hairdryers and beach towels in order to reduce the need for two much expensive baggage on the flight over. Also for guest convenience every room has a 3 pin English socket as well as the standard 2-pin and USB sockets. No need to bring adapters.

The location is quiet and private - away from other properties - however unlike many villas in NE Corfu, the situation above Kassiopi means that it is possible to walk (1 km - 10-15 mins) to shops/restaurants in the evening, leaving the car at home. The nearest supermarket is just 5 mins walk or 2 mins in the car. The famous village of Kalami and the lovely secluded coves of that area is just a 10-15 mins drive. The pool is large (5m x 10m) and iis heatable which has been loved by guests using the villa in low season. We do now have to unfortunately make a charge for heating.

Villa Loukia was extended and extensively upgraded between 2015 and 2019. All 3 bedrooms were re-tiled and all the en-suite bathrooms are new, modern and luxurious. The Master Bedroom was extended to create a 'master suite' with a sofa bed at one end for those with young children. There is also ample room for a travel cot too. The luxurious bathroom has a bath and separate shower. It has great lighting, courtesy night lights, extraction fan, heated mirror and a shaving mirror.

The 'Blue' Bedroom and bathroom have been re-modelled so that the twin beds (can be made up as a double) are opposite the amazing view, the floor is the same gorgeous tiles as the master, the bathroom is larger than it used to be and really luxurious with a wet-room style shower, loads of modern lighting, automatic night lights, heated mirror and magnified shaving mirror. All the details you could ever need. Both upstairs bedrooms have double doors leading onto the upstairs sun terrace.

Downstairs is the Orange Bedroom and bathroom which have been upgraded to the same standard as the other two bedrooms/bathrooms. It has the advantage of having french windows that lead out onto the terrace and pool.

The whole of the living area has also been re-tiled to match the rest of the property and extended with a fantastic 'picture' window that takes in the view across Avlaki to Albania beyond. This gives a wonderful indoor dining area for low season. In the living room there is also a double sofa bed for extra guests by prior arrangement only.

And finally, we extended the upstairs terrace, giving the villa a 'sun terrace'. It really is a fabulous addition and gives yet another area in which to escape those by the pool, lie in the sun or to just sit and read a book whilst taking in the amazing views. There really is plenty of choice at Villa Loukia.

We are really pleased with the results of the all the work we have done and guests seem just as pleased!

At Villa Loukia we strive to be as carbon neutral as possible. In addition to the PVS system on the roof making electricity for the grid, the water is heated by solar and the pool is heated with an air source heat pump, We endeavour to employ local staff, to reduce the mileage done and also the laundry is run to high eco-standards. And finally, each autumn I calculate the carbon used to run Villa Loukia, including ALL the flights taken by us and the guests to get there and I offset the carbon at Carbonfootprint by supporting their Community Projects Portfolio in Developing Countries.

This pledge we make is personal and on behalf of our Grandchildren, so that they and their descendants can have a future that equals the life that we have had. It does not come at any financial cost to our guests.

Home from home with magic touches

By Elena Byers on 31-Aug-2024

We absolutely adored staying at Loukia and would recommend anyone staying here in a heartbeat! The views are incredible and everything has been thought of from the cold freezer glasses 🥂 to the bathroom courtesy lights. Highly recommend hiring a bike or scooter to whizz round the island on too.

The most fantastic villa

By Zoe Phillips on 21-Aug-2024

Thank you Lucy and Nick for allowing us to stay in your beautiful Villa Loukia. Everything was just perfect, from the mesmerising view across to Albania: gorgeous large pool and comfortable sun beds; spacious bedrooms and high spec bathrooms; excellent kitchen facilities and the beautiful outside spaces. I could go on listing so much more! But the icing on the cake for the boys was the cold beer glasses in the freezer, honestly! We had some really fun evenings playing cards and board games on the upper terrace after having dinner in the harbour. All of the restaurants you recommended were fantastic and the harbour is so pretty both day and night. I really enjoyed a daily walk down to the bakery and supermarket past the sheep and goats and watching the stunning sunrises with a cup of tea on the bedroom terrace. It has certainly been the best villa we have stayed in and I can't wait to book for a return trip to stay in the luxury of your villa whilst exploring more of Corfu.

Perfect family summer holiday

By Rachel on 27-Jul-2024

Villa Loukia was without doubt the best villa we have ever stayed in. Everything has been thought through with guests’ comfort in mind- far more so than other villas we have stayed in. The bathrooms are fantastic and the kitchen is very well equipped (lots of plates, glasses etc). The team in Kassiopi were also very helpful and kind without being intrusive at all. The outside area and pool are amazing- lots of space, plenty of different options to enjoy at different times of day or eve. The views across to Albania are so beautiful and give a real sense of where you are. It is an easy 15 walk down through the pretty olive groves into Kassiopi harbour. The walk back up is less easy (especially in high season heat), but well worth it for the peace and quiet and views! There are a few good supermarkets in walking distance- again back up the hill, but the nearest one delivers you and your shopping home if you buy a reasonable amount and ask nicely! We did not hire a car as everything is in walking distance for fit(ish!) adults. Very young children or older/ less fit quests may need cars/ taxis- the hill is steep in parts. Kassiopi is a lovely harbour with everything you need for a relaxing holiday- lots of lovely bars and tavernas. We enjoyed a couple of boat trips and walks from the harbour. It is busy in high season (as you’d expect).. We would happily return!

A beautiful villa in a fantastic location

By Amanda Clarke on 06-Jul-2024

Villa Loukia really is a little piece of paradise. A beautiful villa with magnificent views. The villa is truly luxurious with lots of little extra touches from Molton Brown soup to branded pool & beach towels. The owners (Lucy & Nick) could not have done any more for us and provided so much information prior to our stay. The local management on the ground were super helpful and provided a mid stay clean during our 2 week stay. The walk down to the town is about 12 minutes, a little longer back up in the heat of the day but you can get a taxi from the town. We had a wonderful holiday in Kassiopi and hope to return soon. I would recommend this villa to anyone considering a luxurious stay in this beautiful part of Corfu.

Superb Villa with an Amazing View

Superb villa with an amazing view 5/5 Stayed Sep 2023 Lee H We had a fantastic stay at Villa Loukia. The villa has everything you need and is within walking distance to the pretty harbour, which has so many good bars and restaurants you are really spoilt for choice. Lucy is a wonderful host and was very helpful in arranging our taxi transfer from the airport and sourcing motorbike hire, which sadly we didn’t use, as we were so chilled just relaxing round the pool. Would love to go back so we can explore more of the island. Published 24 Sep 2023
