Corfu Sea View Villa - Cleo

Puhtaat sängyt. Siisti keittiö ja tarvittavat välineet. Kolme WC:tä ja suihkua. Upea maisema.

Asunto on kaksi erillistä huoneistoa. Kaikki ongelmat alakerran huoneistossa: hyvin huono ilma, silmiä kirvelevä haju. WC-pönttö ei toiminut ja korjattiin useimpina päivinä, lavuaarista tuli vedet kaapin läpi lattialle, sekin käytiin korjaamassa. Kylpyhuone kuivui huonosti, viemäristä nousi paha haju koko asuntoon ja asunnossa oli viemärihyönteisiä. Asunnon pinnat ja vuoteet oli siistit ja puhtaat. Siellä täytyi erittäin huonon ilman vuoksi nukkua ikkunat auki, ja ikkunan alla kulki isoja ajoneuvoja ja liikennettä läpi yön. Seurueemme oli niin iso, että joidenkin piti nukkua tässä asunnossa vaikka se tuntui epäterveelliseltä. Yritimme saada hinnasta hyvitystä, mutta tähän ei vastattu.

A Perfect Stay – Absolutely Amazing! We had the most wonderful time at Corfu Sea View Villa - Cleo – everything was simply perfect from start to finish. The villa itself is spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly comfortable. The beds were cozy, the living areas spacious, and everything felt just like home – only with a much better view! Speaking of views… wow! The sea view from the villa is absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunrise and sunset. We spent countless hours relaxing by the lovely private pool, soaking up the sun and admiring the stunning scenery. The location couldn’t have been better – just a short walk to the beach, great restaurants, and local shops. It was so convenient to have everything nearby while still enjoying the peace and quiet of the villa. Our host was fantastic – so friendly, helpful, and always available if we needed anything. They really went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. We truly couldn’t recommend Corfu Sea View Villa - Cleo enough. It was everything we hoped for and more. We’re already dreaming about our next visit!

Nothing, everything was perfect.

Location was great, Barbati lovely and easy bus access to other resorts. The house for our big group was nicely planned out with the two split houses, it worked well. the pool and upstairs house/living area were beautiful.

The downstairs house/living area was apaulling. We were greeted by little heart shaped drain flies all over the walls and floors. (Will attach videos) To top this off we had our first shower which flooded the whole bathroom into the main living area and bedrooms. We were unable for a few days to use these facilities, luckily we could use the upstairs facilities with our other group. After a week the drains were unblocked and seem to sort the issue but the amount of flies put us off having any showers or cooking/eating. We had to sleep there as no options but keep all bedroom doors closed. The toilet also backed and flush broke a few times which we had to fix ourselves by removing the lid.

Great location perfect for 4 adults

No basic supplies like salt and pepper, coffee, sugar, tea, oil.

Amazing location, very near the beach but could have also just relaxed by the pool every day. Near some shops and restaurants but not in the centre so it was quiet. View from the pool and balconies was so good. The staff were lovely and very quick to come back to us with any queries - also helped organise taxi back to the airport.

A few times the water went off but it was middle of the summer and the whole island was affected! Two of the single beds were a little hard and we thought it was one big house but the downstairs apartment is separate/has a separate entrance (not that this was a problem and actually meant there was more space/two kitchens!)

The WiFi worked. There were sun loungers. The hot water worked well. The pool was okay, but was far too deep for children.

1: It is 25 steps up from the road, this is not mentioned in the villa description. Our minibus taxi could not drive up the very steep incline to the left of the steps to the villa. When one arrives and leaves with large pieces of luggage as we did, they have to be carried up these steps in 34+ degrees of heat. 2: On opening the door, we were hit by an overpowering foul smell which smelled like smelly feet. We took our shoes off, as we do in our own house, and within minutes our feet were all dirty. The bad smell remained very bad during our stay. 3: There was a different and even worse smell upstairs coming from the bathrooms. The smell in the twin bedroom was so bad our children could not sleep in it. We had to move the mattresses into the main bedroom and they slept on the floor. The bottoms of the shower enclosures had not been cleaned properly in quite some time. The smell was of dirty drains and we were seeing drain flies coming out of the sink all the time. We went to the supermarket and got some bleach to try to stop the smell. It seemed to kill the drain flies, but did not stop the smell. It felt like we were breathing in something that was dangerous. We could not leave a window open as it was very hot and the air conditioning automatically turned off when a window or door was opened. The property is advertised as a villa, but it’s actually a duplex apartment built on top of a coffee shop on a narrow section of a busy and noisy road. The sound of beeping scooter and car horns was almost constant throughout the day. The property was €530+ per night. What we were most thankful for was that we were only staying 2 nights and would never, ever have to return to it again . I am not interested in discounts or refunds from this property owner. I am writing this honest review to prevent other people from having the same bad experience as we did, when trying to have a holiday with their children.

Great location with good facilities, close to the beach. Great coffee shop just below the villa that served fantastic meals at reasonable prices.

The pictures do not do the Villa justice, its far better in reality. The facilities are excellent and make for a cracking base to explore Corfu, it has everything you need. The pool is exceptional and is cleaned and checked daily, having a swim after a tough day out sightseeing with views over to Corfu Town is wonderful. The communication throughout has been very prompt, easy and helpful, from the time of initial booking with Johnny to the days just before we arrived, throughout our stay and when we left with Cindy, nothing has been a problem. Barbati is a nice resort with a cracking pebble beach, if a little busy in peak season; however, its not overcrowded in the restaurents and bars in the evenings and all that we used were excellent with very friendly staff.

The road is a little busy that runs through the resort and is not predestrian friendly, a minor inconvenience really.
