We are extremely thrilled to once again be featuring the very popular Barbati Beach House and for 2019 & 2020 we are proud to have exclusivity on this stunning property. Having undergone a recent refurbishment program, this beach-front home now features a brand new modern kitchen with integral appliances and granite worktops along with five brand new en-suite bath/shower rooms to each of the five bedrooms (the en-suite in the annexe is also disable friendly).
This old Corfiot House is bursting with charm and has one of the best locations along the prestigious North East Coast of Corfu. The location is simply stunning, as the name implies it is situated right on the waters edge with private beach access via your own gate onto the quiet end of the beautiful beach of Barbati
The house is a haven of tranquility with just the water below lapping onto the beach and the sound of cicades in the trees to disturb you.
There is a large swimming pool set in stone patios and colourful gardens with lawns with an abundance of comfortable wicker sunloungers. Guests can also enjoy the new stone BBQ, vast water front patios with a choice of outside dining areas and a covered pergola which overlooks the length of this beach plot.
Cook service is available and the house is within an easy walk of Barbati Village where there are numerous good taverna's and beachwear boutiques. Just a short stroll along the beach you will find some of our favourite beach side chill-out bars and restaurants.
The interior is of traditional style with a hint of English charm to add to the character of this lovely old home. This villa is far from contemporary and a world away from the fast pace of modern life but with the addition of the brand new kitchen and five modern bathrooms it will bring this classic property sympathetically into the 21st century. In our opinion it's a magical place, our directors favourite villa and a perfect retreat for a family looking for a spacious well positioned house where a car isn't an absolute necessity.

The brilliant white sweeping pebble beach of Barbati is the gateway to the prestigious North East Coast of Corfu, affectionately known as Kensington-upon-Sea. This resort has a real holiday vibe about it with a it's upmarket beach side restaurants and trendy beach bars. Bahia Mare & Piedra del Mar to name just two, play relaxing chill-out tunes and offer a superb beachfront atmosphere both during the day and during the balmy evenings. Both restaurants have a superb menu and during high season a table reservation is recommended.
For the water sports enthusiasts Barbati also has a superb watersports centre and we would high recommend renting one of the small boats from either of the boat hire companies along the beach. From Barbati you can meander your way up the picturesque coastline, anchoring up in one of the many deserted coves where the water is crystal turquioise and perfect for snorkling.

'Beautiful Barbati Beach House'
Prestige was recommended to us by my sister in law and what a brilliant recommendation it turned out to be. I spoke to Annabelle and within 10 minutes she came up with 3 suggestions which fitted the bill. We chose Barbati Beach House as we wanted a villa with a pool which was walking distance to the beach, shops and restaurants and could comfortably accommodate two families. Barbati Beach House was 100% perfect. It has a very comfortable annexe which meant that both families effectively had their own house. We all love to cook and the kitchen exceptionally well equipped with plenty of places for a large group to eat either inside or outside. The pool area and garden are lovely with lots of places to relax. Steps lead straight down to the beach which has excellent swimming. The pool, garden and villa are very well maintained by an excellent team who come regularly. The service from Prestige was excellent: every query - no matter how trivial - answered promptly. We would not hesitate to use Prestige again and have recommended them to friends thinking of going to Corfu.

'Perfect Beach House'
A wonderful way to spend a few weeks in August — great location, excellent outdoor space, comfortable/well equipped villa and highly professional service from booking through to departure. Barbati beach has a good balance between activities and Tavernas at one end and a much quieter end where the beach house is perfectly located with beautiful views and crystal clear water literally on the doorstep.

'Fantastic Holiday!'
We had a fantastic holiday this year at Barbati Beach House. The villa is gorgeous in a truly stunning location with amazing views. Everyone loved the pool and the beach and being able to walk to the bars for a coffee or a cocktail...we did not want to leave.
Jane and Annabelle have been great in what must have been very difficult circumstances this year with Covid19. They responded quickly and efficiently to all our requests/questions and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

'Barbati Beach House'
We’re back and missing the vista , sound of the sea and animals ! The taxi was spot on, thank you for arranging it .
What we loved :
Where BBH is positioned so you can snorkel, Swim, paddle board, water ski from the house.
The animals, Bruno, Buster, Beatrice and the cats .
The house keeper Shelley, English so very easy to communicate with, very helpful and friendly .
The outside area, all the different seating areas, loungers et al. We are keen Exploding Kitten players so we had sun and shade to choose!
Bbq with adjacent seating area.
A light Conservatory - so we could eat in - wasps.
Pool - good size, very clean.
Sitting room charming.
Kitchen, well equipped, lots of different table settings and mats , fun.
Bed linen and towels , very good quality.
Lightness of the house and decor. The main bedroom is so pretty with the double doors and verandah for when it rained.
Would have liked :
Internet that worked.
A list of recommended restaurants , bars , boat hire , taxis , etc . When the two sheets arrived they had little of the information we usually get .
No mention of the gardener and when they’d arrive (they didn’t). Wardrobe or hanging area in the 2 nd annex bedroom, there is no hanging space at present . Air con in the kitchen.
Thank you for your help and we would and have thoroughly recommended the villa to friends . Thank you, Corfu is a delight, from all the H' family .
Our Reply:
Thank you so much for taking the time to send us such an informative review.I've passed this onto the owners and I'm sure things will improve. So bizarre about the problems you encountered with the internet. Nobody has ever mentioned this to our office although Shelley mentioned to me that some guests with iphones during this summer were experiencing problems. I checked it with my iphone during a recent visit and mine worked just fine and the clients who checked out yesterday had no problems at all with their iphones. We have spoken to the supplier and they are at a loss as to why this has happened. Also thank you for bringing to our attention the lack of hanging space in the 2nd bedroom in the annex. I hadn’t ever noticed this. AC in the kitchen is definitely on the list for 2020 though. I felt our villa book had lots of ideas with regards to excursions and trips, we don’t tend to recommend restaurants in the villa book as it's something which ABTA recommend we don’t do. We will though encourage for next year guests to write their own recommendations which will be helpful for future guests. Many people including myself use the Trip Advisor App these days though when choosing restaurants. Glad you all had such a great holiday and hope to see you again next year!!
