This is a wonderful base for a holiday exploring the beauty of Corfu. The villa nestles right on the water, with 5 different outdoor seating areas, all looking out to the crystal clear sea - and even a small beach and private jetty, so you can easily experience the wonder of swimming in such an unspoilt spot and quiet beach. We didn't make use of the paddle boards and fishing equipment, but I can see how much fun that would add to a family staying here.
The villa is superbly equipped, with everything you need and Hugh and Daniella are extremely good hosts, standing at the gate to meet us (even though we were an hour late!) and having made sure we had all the necessities for our first night. The beds are comfortable (so important!) and the whole space is well laid out and thoughtfully decorated - can't fault it.
The small town of Benitses is a short bus ride away - so you don't even need to hire a car. The bus service is pretty good and easy to follow with real time updates online. There are a number of lovely bars and restaurants there and we had some really good meals.
You need to be careful on the road that the villa is on, its quite busy and there aren't any pavements, so just take care. That said, its only a short walk to the bus stop, so easy to do. We took a round the island coach trip which enabled us to see a lot more of the island and was good fun. We also tried the boat trip to the caves, Paxos and Antipaxos - beautiful scenery but we weren't impressed with the tour company, so go with someone other than Corfu Cruises - there are other boats available! Old Corfu Town is also well worth exploring - you can easily get there on just one bus and we had a beautiful Asian meal in a restaurant overlooking the harbour.
All in all this was the perfect trip - beautiful weather, beautiful scenery and beautiful villa - would highly recommend.

John Hereford Res #HA-PZHSVL Sat, 4 Oct – Sat, 11 Oct 2025 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Oct 11, 2025 We loved our week stay at Villa Waves. Hugh and Daniela have created a wonderful place to call home. It has many wonderful terraces looking right out over the Ionian Sea. We used the kayaks to go shopping and to go to Mouse Island Nice, little beach to enjoy. They are hospitable and communicative hosts. Very comfortable living
Shell Housden Res #HA-BP0V2C Sat, 16 Aug – Sat, 23 Aug 2025 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Aug 24, 2025 This villa was everything we expected and more. We enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset, our highlight being lucky enough to watch a pod of dolphins one morning. My sons aged 3 and 6 enjoyed exploring the wildlife both in the gardens of the villa and within the sea, this kept them very entertained. The villa has access to paddle boards, kayaks, fish rods and life jackets. The villa kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. We used the bbq most days and enjoyed eating dinner with a view. The following things are not negative but things that our worth knowing if your planning a trip here. We had planned to use the buses but ended up hiring a car which worked better for us with the children. There are many steps around the villa and to get down to the sea the steps are very steep, for younger children this may have been an issue, but we carefully navigated this with our children and it wasn’t a problem. The hosts were very helpful, they sent over restaurant recommendations and a boat trip for our children. Do not hesitate to book, a villa we shall never forget.
Simon Fisher Res #HA-9PF568 Sat, 2 Aug – Sat, 9 Aug 2025 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Aug 9, 2025 Perfect setting, wonderful property Perfect setting with fabulous views and easy beach access, great facilities for children and adults. Luxury and relaxation. Hosts very helpful and sorted out one (very minor) problem. Couldn’t be bettered.
L. Liraz Sofrin Res #HA-0X3MFN Thu, 29 Aug – Mon, 2 Sept 2024 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Sep 2, 2024 An amazing house for a perfect vacation! The house is perfect for a family vacation. It contains everything needed for a great vacation and we didn’t want to leave! Hugh and Daniela are great hosts and enabled us to feel at home for the first minute. The location is also very good, quite close to Corfu town and to great restaurants and tavernas. We will absolutely come back!
Emma Legge Res #HA-8S0S95 Sat, 29 Jun – Sat, 6 Jul 2024 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Jul 9, 2024 Fabulous Villa right on the sea front The villa was decorated to a very high standard with everything we could wish for, including: paddle boards, kayaks, fishing rods, a boat and a guitar. Our experience was rich and varied from BBQ to hot tub. There was something for everyone. We will definitely be back. Hugh and Daniela were very attentive.
Samantha Trevena Res #HA-70GRJG Fri, 20 Jun – Fri, 27 Jun 2025 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Jun 27, 2025 Wonderful stay at Villa Waves We had a wonderful week at Villa Waves ! The hosts are very helpful and accommodating. The villa is exactly as described and is beautifully decorated with fantastic outdoor areas to eat , relax and enjoy the views. Having kyaks and paddleboards available to use is just brilliant as the coast is perfect for exploring in this way and the snorkelling is great literally a few feet from the villa. Benitsies has a great selection of traditional tavernas , a supermarket and bakery etc which is 10 minutes by car or bus. The bus to Corfu town is just outside the villa and takes 25 mins which is perfect for a day trip or evening out. We would recommend this villa for anyone wanting a relaxing holiday enjoying the ocean and all that Corfu has to offer !
Fiona Ni Mhurchadha Res #HA-T5KJCJ Tue, 4 Jun – Sun, 9 Jun 2024 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Jun 15, 2024 Stunning Villa - Just go! Villa Waves was spectacular. I’m so glad we booked this place for us and our two teenagers - it has it all! Perfectly located on the water we had such fun with the paddle-boards, kayaks & snorkels. Endless entertainment everyday as well as enjoying the hot tub in the evening time. We didn’t have a car so we used the bus to get around to nearby town’s & restaurants. Daniela & Hugh were super hosts while also providing us with a fab welcome pack of fruit, beers, prosecco and any assistance we needed. The Villa has everything you need for an amazing holiday. There are so many different areas to hang out, play music etc.. everyone really enjoyed it. All back home now and dreaming of another trip sometime to Corfu and Villa Waves! Thanks for a holiday to remember.
chris duxbury Res #HA-SBTQ0K Tue, 10 Jun – Tue, 17 Jun 2025 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Jun 24, 2025 Villa life Beautiful property well set up and decked out with what you need to enjoy yourselves. Very friendly gracious hosts! Stunning sunrises and views! We were three couples and found it a great space to cook and enjoy dinner on the decks. Very tastefully decorated! Thanks Hugh & Daniela
Greg Kisor Res #HA-FQ442K Sat, 16 Sept – Thu, 28 Sept 2023 Vrbo 10/10 Posted Oct 4, 2023 12 days in paradise My wife and I talked about visiting Corfu from our very first phone call together before we even met face to face. It took us 22 years to finally get there. After careful consideration, we chose Villa Waves to base ourselves for our dream vacation. It was a very good choice. First the property is well described in the listing. It was very well taken care of and equipped with everything we needed during our stay. We were able to cook at the Villa when we wanted using a gas grill and the very well equipped kitchen and when we wanted, were a very short distance to many great places to eat. We decided to rent a car and explore the entire island. We were never much more than an hour drive from even the furthest places, and most were much less than that. In addition, we used the public bus system to go into Corfu town to avoid the need for parking. The bus system is really good and goes almost anywhere you would want to go. It was truly amazing to go swimming right out of the back door and we really enjoyed the Kayaks. Sunrises from the back terrace were awesome as we enjoyed the Nespresso coffee. Hugh and Daniela are truly awesome hosts. They made sure the Villa was well taken care of, checking in on things a few times during our visit. They also were always very quick to answer any questions we had. They even arranged for a great deal on our rental car. We loved every aspect of our stay and do not hesitate to highly recommend it!
