Cottage vacation rentals in Ionian Sea

We loved our stay in this beach house by the sea. Allesandro had made it very comfortable and provided so many extra treats. It was so quiet, relaxing and calm with great restaurants nearby and many beautiful places to visit.

We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was in a great location for exploring the island and we couldn’t have been happier with everything overall. Thank you for having us.

Honestly the greatest hosts you can wish for!! From booking, arriving and leaving they have been amazing. Nothing was a big ask! Gave clear instructions of local things today, house was Clean in an amazing area with breathtaking views. If you’re on the fence about booking then don’t, highly recommended this airbnb and hopefully return in the future!!

White Jasmine is a really pretty house on the side of a mountain, in a picturesque village, lots of great views. The house was very nicely decorated and well equipped in the kitchen. It looks exactly like in the pictures, although we couldn’t see that the outside terrace has a very steep drop and a low ledge/no barriers/fence, so a bit unsafe with small children. We solved by rearranging the flower pots, much help from the owner living next door. We were 2 families with 2 small children so the house layout was perfect for us. 2 bedrooms on the top floor and 1 downstairs, bathrooms on both floors. The walls are a bit thin, so top floor sleepers could hear noise from downstairs. Lots of friendly cats on the premises, sometimes also in the house :) We had some communication issues during our stay (2 weeks) but that didn’t set the mood (no extra sheets/toilet paper during that time & we asked). But good sights tips from host In total, we were happy &recommend! Good distance from Kerkira.

If you are looking for peace, relaxation and originality. This is the place to be. We felt very comfortable. Slept very well and really recovered from the stressful everyday life. The surroundings are quiet and yet you can eat well in the area, hike or go to the beach. Host support was also very good. If we travel to Corfu again, we'll be happy to come back here.

My husband and I stayed at Red House for a week with our 9 year old twins and had a wonderful time. You would be hard pushed to find a better view on the island and the location was perfect for strolling to dinner in the evenings. Hera and Andreas were perfect hosts and were immediately contactable throughout our stay. A most delicious breakfast was brought up in a hamper each morning and usually doubled up as lunch too as it was so plentiful. Our favourite places to visit were Orkos beach, Erimitis beach, Mongonissi and Ben’s bar. We hired a boat for the day from Papas which was great and particularly loved dinner at AKIS and Stasinos. We loved our stay so much and hope to return!

Absolutely amazing stay at Villa Blue! My family spent 2 fantastic weeks at this beautiful property & it exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning panoramic view across the pool & the most amazing place to enjoy the beautiful sunrise & sunsets The villa itself was immaculate & thoughtfully equipped with everything we could possibly need from kitchen essentials to pool towels, wifi & BBQ. The layout was spacious & comfortable, plus friendly cleaner every few days We all enjoyed the great pool Our hosts were fantastic, incredibly responsive & attentive, always just a message away & helped with local recommendations. Their hospitality was spot on. Meeting us on arrival to direct us to the villa was very helpful. We couldn't have asked for a better villa or base to explore Kefalonia. If you’re looking for a perfect getaway with incredible views I would highly recommend Villa Blue. We can’t wait to come back! Thank you Efi & Makis

Amanda's house is very convenient for relaxing with a family especially with children; The sea is right in front, the area is very quite and relaxing and you can stroll around the village. The house is very well equipped, there where even lots of kids toys that kept our kids busy and excited! There are some cafes and restaurants in the area and this is also very convenient. Amanda was very responsive, giving clear instructions and being very helpful. I totally recomment visiting the only thing you should take into consideration is the stairs, there is a protective nest but if you have young children you might want to take this into consideration! Thank you for hosting us.

The stone house is well renovated and feels very authentic. There's big open space with lots of greenery, including two patios. Makryotika's central position makes it a good base to explore the whole island, with dramatic cliffs and beaches on the west coast a 20-30 min drive away. Mirto was very helpful and proactive and welcomed us personally despite the late night arrival. We stayed 4 nights and had everything needed for a proper vacation.

Dear Leticia and Spiros! We really didn’t want to go home! Their hospitality was outstanding, they were the best hosts we could find!!! Spiros even brought us apple pie, homemade, best we’ve ever had! We loved the quiet atmosphere, the house is completely remote and surrounded by olive trees. Our daughter loved the cats that are in the area, they all had names in the end :-) They waited for us at the church in the middle of the village and brought us to the house. We had snacks and water and wine from them. They showed us around, made sure we got everything we need. It was just perfect. We had the best holiday there! These people just deserve the 5 star rating! See you soon Leticia and Spiros. We will come back soon!

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful 5 night stay at the beautifully appointed and well located home. We went to the stunning natural pool at the bottom of the street at least once every day and if you love to swim and the sea it's heavenly. Nearby Tricase is an interesting town with good supermarkets, restaurants and shops. We went to Etimo spa about 5 minutes from the home and can highly recommend that place. Maria Teresa's home is very private and has a very large yard and garden surrounding it. We cooked half the meals at home and found everything we needed including a great coffee machine. She is the perfect host and responds quickly to any questions or concerns. I'd recommend spending at least three nights here but we wish we had a month to stay!

We spent 3 weeks in this wonderful house and loved it. thank you very much for your hospitality. we enjoyed the sunsets, the garden, the beautiful area.

Beautiful house right on the sea equipped with all you can dream, extremely clean, beautifully decorated and near shops and restaurants. So far the best place I have ever visited!

A beautiful cottage in a wonderful location. The check-in was easy, the house has all the amenities which you’ll need. There are two amazing restaurants around the corner (Tomateli and Veatriki), and a spectacular view in walking distance (the Donkey Trail). A car is recommended to have, as the hills are quite steep, so a scooter could have difficulties.

We loved our stay at the cottage. The silence is almost deafening only interrupted by nature & the sounds of goat bells. The cottage is well equipped with everything you need & more spacious than it appears in the photos. You definitely need a car for this location. Tasos is an excellent host, very quick to respond to any questions we had & extremely helpful. I would highly recommend him as a host at any of his properties.

We had a lovely stay thanks to Lena’s friendly hospitality. She was very attentive and kindly gifted us some fruit and snacks upon arrival, and also some souvenirs when we left. There’s a lot of places around the airbnb where you can swim and lounge. As for bars and restaurants, they are slightly further (but still walkable) but there is a bus stop right outside the apartment and we found the buses to be very trustworthy. The only slight issue we had was that the wifi was a bit temperamental, but it didn’t really inconvenience us much. Had such a nice time here all thanks to Lena. Would love to return soon! ❤️

This house was serene, rustic and lovely. A real get-away and yet just a 10-15 minute walk to the small village of Magazia with good restaurants and a small market. Highly recommend renting a car -- we feel like it was necessary for this location. Loved our stay here!

Yesterday we left Green Leaf Cottage with sadness because we didn't want to leave. The place is beautiful, even more beautiful than it looks in the photos. Every detail was carefully thought out so you won't want for anything during your stay. The kitchen is beautiful and very well-equipped, perfect if you want to cook during your stay. It's a small house, perfect for couples. The location is incredible; you have views of the mountains and the sea. It's very close to the town walking distance. The town is also very charming, small and beautiful. A huge thank you to Nikoletta and her husband for their warm welcome. We would definitely come back again :)

We had a lovely stay here. The location is amazing - the house is right next to the sea. The house is open plan and quite spacious. Axillea left bottles of fresh olive oil on the side for us to use (,which tasted amazing!) We enjoyed going in the sea I'm the morning from the private beach next to the house. It was very quiet and we barely saw anyone near the house whilst we were there - a great getaway. My only criticism would be that he didn't explain the doors lock automatically so you need the key whenever your are outside of the building - even if you are just chilling on the veranda. Also be aware of the mosquitoes if you stay here (bring some repellant with you! - my husband got bitten like crazy!)

The lovely wooden house is a place worth to stay. Next time we will book early so that we can stay more days. If you are looking for something cozy, quiet with the closest beach being just 5 minutes away, this is your place. The great collection of books is an extra feature.

What a beautiful cottage, extremely peaceful and with incredible views. The accommodation is simple and rustic, and that's a big part of why we liked it. We really loved our week-long stay here, and as an antidote to a busy working life in the UK, it was the perfect escape. The resident cat Kiki was a welcome daily visitor and added to the charm of the place. The area is near some lovely beaches and tavernas, but it still feels like you are away from it all. To get the best from the island though, a hire car is a must. Gerry could not have been more helpful and responsive as a host, with lots of great recommendations and tips - thank you! The easiest 5 stars I've ever given on Airbnb!

Incredible home and property. Felt very comfortable and at home. Loved the location and the view was stunning. More importantly, Chrysa (and her brother) made this such a special stay for me and my husband on his 50th birthday. They went ABOVE and BEYOND! Kefalonia was our favorite of the greek islands we visited and would stay in this home again 100%

The apartment was beautifully located, just steps from the beach and many restaurants/shops. It was very well equipped with anything we needed. Mihalakis was very responsive and attentive to any of our needs. I would definitely stay here again!

This was our first visit to Corfu and i am glad we stayed on the North East of the island. the villa is a the top of a hill and accessed via a narrow track with plenty of tight hairpins. The final assent to the villa is quite tricky but you get used to it. The villa is exactly like the photos and is a lovely place to be. Dora and Irine met us the day after our arrival and gave us a very warm welcome. We walked a few times down the hill to the restaurants and the harbour. its approximately a 25 min walk. the immediate location around Nissaki is lovely with lots of small beaches. We hired a boat from Fontas in Nissaki harbour, you can pull up to many restaurants with small jetties and they will park the boat for you - perfect for us novices. the Nickolas Taverna in Agni was particularly good and we visited a few times over the week. A lovely stay and would highly recommend the villa for couples or a family.
