The sweet Villa Nafsika is a large and welcoming villa with 3 a/c bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and private swimming pool with the most amazing views of the Ionian Sea.
Great location if you want somewhere peaceful to get away from the crowds. Lovely swimming pool with far reaching views along the coast. A 45 min drive from the airport and the old town. Not a long walk to the sea, maybe 8 mins, but a bit of a climb on the way back. Locally there are a few small markets with all the basics and there are restaurants down by the sea. Having a car was a must for exploring around the island although there are buses on the main routes. House was clean and cleaned again twice whilst we were staying, plus the pool was cleaned twice in 10 days which was a nice surprise. Mosquitoes are a pain everywhere in Corfu, so bring repellent. I would definitely come again as it’s such a beautiful house and location. If you enjoy cooking and eating outside, the BBQ is perfect and you have a choice of places to sit around the building and enjoy the quiet evenings.
Please note: As per the E.U. Directive and new law in effect, there's a nightly fee of 10€ for the environment. This fee you'll either pay separately along with your total balance or upon arriving at your accommodation
Nisaki is only a very small village, extended from the slopes of mount Pantokrator all the way down to the sea and it is located on the celebrated northeast coast of Corfu Island, a meret 25 kms from Corfu Town.
Nisaki, in the Greek language, means: "small island" and it is believed that took its name from the small island, which existed in its bay. Years ago, the locals used to work on this island, shaping stones and rocks for building, brought to them by boats. After many years, the chippings falling into sea formed a ramp and eventually joined the land. Now, there is a narrow road running between the old island, where a couple of Tavernas are standing and the mainland. Lately, a jetty was constructed, linking it permanently to the coast.
The main village of Nisaki was emerging on the hill, above this inlet, where a church, a school, a small cafe and the village's first houses were located.
In nowadays the village on its own is quite sporadic and has got no main centre. The main part of the village is alongside and upward the main coastal road. Above the main road there are 2-3 winding lanes that go up high, through olive groves and eventually join Nisaki with the top of Mount Pantokrator.
Hundreds of luxury villas adorn the slopes of the Mountain, providing spectacular views and making Nisaki, overall, a very popular resort, a car is recommended due to the elevated location of most properties.
Nissaki is still an un-commercialized resort, but with unbelievable scenery and amazing viewpoints promising a truly memorable holiday. It is a tranquil village, ideal for family holidays, elderly couples and people who love traditional Greece. Young couples are also welcome, as the area offers a choice of nightlife just a few kilometers further up, in Kassiopi and / or Ipsos. The main Nissaki beach area is small but elegant waterside tavernas are simply perfect to while away time gazing out to the stunning scenery of the rugged Albanian mountains beyond the Corfu Channel and sparkling Ionian Sea.
