ABOUT THE VILLA
A Seafront Hideaway Overlooking One of Corfu’s Most Beautiful Bays
Paleokastritsa is one of those places in Corfu that never loses its magic, with turquoise waters, dramatic green hills, and little coves that make you want to spend the entire day by the sea. Villa Layla enjoys a wonderful setting here, combining beautiful architecture, lush gardens, and breathtaking views over the bay.
With 300 sq.m. of living space, five bedrooms, and accommodation for up to 12 guests, it's a lovely option for a large family or a group of friends looking for privacy, comfort, and a truly special coastal setting.
What I particularly like about this villa is that it feels connected to its surroundings. The outdoor spaces are designed to make the most of the landscape, and the views are very much part of the experience.
A Villa with Character
Villa Layla has a distinctive architectural design, with generous interiors and an easy flow between the indoor and outdoor living areas.
The layout is particularly practical for groups, offering different bedroom arrangements and enough flexibility for families travelling with children or several couples holidaying together.
The master bedroom features a queen-sized bed, an en-suite bathroom, and beautiful sea views over Paleokastritsa Bay. It's an especially lovely spot to wake up and take in the scenery before the day begins.
Three further bedrooms each have two twin beds, allowing for flexible sleeping arrangements.
The fifth bedroom is a little different, with two twin beds and a loft that accommodates two additional guests. It also has a separate entrance and a shared en-suite bathroom, offering a degree of independence that can be useful for teenagers, extended family, or guests who appreciate a little extra privacy.
Outdoor Living | Poolside Afternoons and Sunset Views
For me, the outdoor spaces are one of Villa Layla's strongest features.
The pergola-covered living area offers welcome shade during the warmer hours of the day, while the terrace around the swimming pool is perfect for sunbathing and enjoying the views.
There's also an outdoor dining area and a barbecue, making it easy to prepare fresh local ingredients and enjoy long, relaxed meals together.
And then there are the sunsets. With the landscape of Paleokastritsa stretching out in front of you, evenings here are all about slowing down, enjoying a drink, and watching the colours change over the sea.
The Beach Just Steps Away
One of the biggest advantages of Villa Layla is its proximity to the water. The nearest beach is just a short walk away, making spontaneous swims and easy beach days part of everyday life.
Paleokastritsa itself is approximately a 20-minute walk from the villa, offering opportunities to explore the area's restaurants, cafés, and beautiful coastal scenery.
For those who enjoy exploring beyond the beach, the historic Angelokastro fortress is around a five-minute drive away. Corfu Town, with its elegant Venetian architecture, lively squares, and excellent dining options, is approximately 30 minutes by car.
The nearest shops and supermarket are around 1 km away, which is convenient for picking up everything you need for a relaxed stay at the villa.

Why I Would Recommend It
For me, Villa Layla is all about the setting. Paleokastritsa is one of Corfu's most beautiful coastal areas, and having a villa with a pool, generous outdoor spaces, and the beach just a short walk away makes it particularly appealing.
It's well suited to larger families or groups of friends who want to enjoy time together while having flexible sleeping arrangements and a little privacy when needed.
Days can be spent swimming, exploring the coastline, or simply relaxing by the pool, followed by evenings outdoors with good food and those beautiful sunset views.
If you're looking for a spacious seafront villa in Corfu, with distinctive architecture and a setting that captures the island at its best, Villa Layla is definitely worth considering.
