Location
Conveniently located at Tsaki, near Benitses village, almost in the middle of the east coast of Corfu, with easy access both to Corfu town and to some of the most beautiful beaches of the southern part of the island
Nearest beach
The nearest beach is the coastline right in front of the villa and it is actually the continuation of Benitses beach. You can either reach it by walking 250m along the main road or you can take a shortcut, which includes walking through an abandoned hotel. It’s a shorter, but more adventurous walk, people will hate it or love it. It is a very long, but narrow beach, with pebbles and natural shadow after 13.00. The sea is clean and usually very calm. It is possible to find a place there to be alone, even in the peak of the season. We love going there, we suggest that you check it on your first day and see if it works for you.
Nearest town
The nearest town, with many bars, shops, supermarkets, restaurants and beaches, is the village of Benitses, at 2km away, a former fishing village and tourist resort, with a beautiful and well-preserved part of the old village that is worth visiting.
Transportation
To get around, hiring cars is one option that will of course give you a lot of independence, especially if exploring as many aspects of the island as possible is on your to-do-list. You may though also find interesting to know that many of our guests choose not to hire cars, as they find it quite convenient to move around by bus. There are two buses that stop just a few footsteps away. The blue bus will take you directly to Benitses and to Corfu town. The green bus will take you to the nearby village of Moraitika and to some of the most beautiful beaches of the southern part of the island. The buses stop by around every 45’. And if you would like to take a different route, you can always get a taxi or rent a car for the day.
Bonus fact
There is a nice restaurant called "Arokaria" just around the corner. They serve a variety of local dishes, they also serve breakfast upon request and they deliver to the villa.

Excellent from the very first contact to check-out
We can’t praise enough our stay at Villa Olea. The premises are gorgeous, just as shown in the photos, the sea view and the gardens just amazing. Also, the location is very convenient – plus, we felt really well taken care of. Thank you, we are so grateful!
We loved every second of our stay at this villa. Very clean, very well designed, very comfortable, fantastic views and a great starting point to explore the island. Everything was simply perfect for our group of two families with small children and we were very sad to leave. Highly recommended!
Vicky, who menges the property is very friendly and alway available and helpful.
We were acpmpany of 14 people ages 4-80. We were very comfortable. The swimming pool was one of the main attraction. And when there there was the dlightest problem, it was immediately tzkink care of. Beautiful location and garden. The house is very well equipped.
We visited Ionian Garden Villas for the second time – last year we stayed at Villa Pietra, this time we stayed at Villa Olea! We are so grateful to have found these villas and will definitely keep coming back. Spacious, elegant and comfortable, with fantastic sea views, each with a super clean private pool, very welcoming properties in every aspect. The gardens are just spectacular – I think that the photos don’t do them justice, they are so much more impressive in real. Also, Vicky, the villa hostess, was available at all times and was making sure we were happy with everything. Next time we ‘d really like to experience staying at Villa Sol, as well! Thank you for your hospitality everyone, it's been a blast!
We recently rented all three villas at Ionian Garden Villas in Benitses for a week long stay with our families. We also hosted our wedding on the property. It’s hard to put into words how meaningful and memorable the experience was.The villas themselves are stunning, surrounded by beautiful greenery and views that immediately put you at ease. There’s a real sense of privacy and calm, while still being just a short drive from the village and a walk from the sea. Each villa offers its own space, making it ideal for a group like ours three families, but the shared garden areas gave us plenty of opportunity to come together and celebrate.What truly elevated the experience was the people. From the moment we arrived, we were treated not just as guests, but as welcome friends. Vicky, the villa manager, deserves special mention. She went far beyond what anyone could reasonably expect, helping us coordinate local services for the wedding, making thoughtful suggestions, and being a constant source of calm and support. She handled logistics, big and small, with grace and warmth, making what could have been a stressful event feel seamless and joyful. It honestly felt like having a second family looking out for us.We will always remember our time here not just because it was our wedding venue, but because it felt like a unique home-like space.We couldn’t recommend Ionian Garden Villas and Vicky more highly.

Stylish villa with great pool area and superb sea views
This is a great villa that has been re-decoreted recently. It has a a beautiful pool area and the pool itself has a good size. The sea views from the house, the large terrace and the balcony are all impressive. The internal re-decoration is stylish, modern and makes good use of the features and original design of the house.
The owners are very helpful and accommodating, and provided us with a number of good recommendations for restaurants and beaches to visit.
Overall, a very good week and a villa that we would recommend.
