Location
About the surrounding area of Villa Jacaranda MauveBenitses is an attractive, small village on the east coast of Corfu, roughly 9km from the airport and 12km south of Corfu Town. It is a very easy journey from the airport. At the northern end of the village you will discover a pretty pebble and shingle beach with a marina at the far end. The delightful marina is home to close to 200 boats and yachts. It is a very pretty sight. Visitors enjoy a good range of shops, restaurants and bars.
Corfu is one of the most beautiful, lush green islands of Greece. With countless beaches, a few hundred villages, nearly a thousand churches, stunning scenery stretching from the crystal clear dazzling sea to the mountains, valleys, lagoons, waterfalls, forests and numerous caves, it is a dream destination. The fauna and flora is world famous due to the Durrell family and especially since the TV series. Together with fantastic cuisine, excellent shopping and an historic main town brimming with Venetian architecture and charm, it has something for everyone.
Corfu Town or Kerkyra as it is otherwise known, is one of the most beautiful, graceful and elegant towns in Greece. Though seventh in size, it is one of the most populated in the whole of the Ionian Islands. The town’s stunning architecture has many influences including Sicilian, Venetian, French and English. Corfu Town is brimming with elegant mansions, magnificent palaces, beautiful squares, no fewer than 39 churches and majestic fortresses. You should not miss The Liston and the Church of Saint Spiridon. The entire Old Town is declared a UNESCO World Heritage site, a tightly-packed warren of winding lanes bursting with lively bars, unique shops and fine restaurants. You will also see timeless alleys with the day’s washing stretching from balcony to balcony. It is beautiful.
The beautiful, atmospheric resort of Kassiopi is located in the lively north eastern corner of Corfu. With the dramatic Mount Pantokrator overlooking the resort and with a stunning harbour, this once quiet fishing village is very popular and very attractive. It boasts charming narrow streets overlooked by the ruins of an ancient Byzantine castle and breathtaking views out to sea towards the Albanian coast. There is a gorgeous walk you can take around the headland.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Jacaranda Mauve is ideal for a family with its wonderful outdoor space and brilliant swimming pool.
Benitses is a lovely, friendly resort with lots of facilities and fabulous restaurants. The beach is pebbly and shingle so you may want to visit some of the sandy beaches scattered around the island.
Family entertainment on Corfu is endless. There are many beaches to choose from, from hidden, quiet coves to magnificent, highly organised stretches of sand with a huge array of watersports. Some of the best East oast beaches besides Barbati are Agios Ioannis Peristeron, Perama, Dassia, Ipsos, Agni, Kouloura and Kalami. Kalami is the village where Lawrence Durrell lived in the 1930’s. It is now a small resort with several tavernas including the White House, where the Durrells lived. On the North coast, Kassiopi, Acharavi and Roda are very popular.
Children love Aqualand, Corfu’s water park. It is just the place for a thrilling day out. The park caters for all ages and boasts a lazy river, wave pool, kayaking, rafting and extreme slides such as the Double Twister, Kamikaze and the Hurricane Twist.
For a completely different, non-water based day you could head to the majestic Mount Pantokrator. It is the highest peak in Corfu and a popular pilgrim spot. It boasts the most amazing views of the whole of Corfu Island. On a clear day you can even see Albania and Italy even though Italy is 130km away!
In Corfu Town, children enjoy climbing the walls of the Old Fortress, the Venetian fort built in the 15th century and the New Fortress. The fortresses boast fantastic views of the turquoise waters. Also in Corfu Town, you can take a trip in Kalypso Star, the glass-bottomed boat that leaves the harbour to explore the Ionian Sea’s fascinating marine life. A 10 minute boat trip from Corfu Town takes you to the tiny island of Vidos where you can enjoy feeding the rabbits, seeing the peacocks, swimming and having lunch at the charming taverna.
