Here are the available villas for rental in Corfu.

A peaceful holiday

We visited Aghios Gordios, on the west side of Corfu island. It was a beautiful village with a gorgeous beach and really friendly people. Not much nightlife which was great for us.
When we went back to Corfu the following year we visited the people of Aghios Gordios who all remembered us from the previous year and even asked us to just call them to book in for this year.
There is plenty of places to eat and the food at the Sea Breeze is out of this world.
Would strongly reccommend this part of the island if you are looking for a peaceful holiday with value for money.

As lively as you want it

My boyfriend and I went to Sidari in July 2002 and it was the best holiday ever!
There is so much to do in this particular resort, it can be as lively as you want it to be.
We went out on excursions every day and visited so many different places on the island. It was all really cheap to do and was well worth it. There were also fully air conditioned coaches which was great!
We had beautiful weather for the whole week we were there and our hotel was perfect. We stayed in Hotel Astoria which was very central and even better...literally on the beach.
Sidari has a range of watersport activities which we definitely tried out.
The nightlife there is good and really friendly. The main street is bar after bar after shop after restaurant, so there's plenty of variety to eat and drink. It is suitable for anyone - couples, singles and families.
Corfu town itself is a lovely town, lots of old fashioned buildings, nice scenery and plenty of shops.
All in all I don't think we could have asked for a better holiday and would recommend Sidari to anyone. We will certainly go back there again. ... more

So good I sent my parents

I went on holiday to Kavos in 1996 and returned back in 1997 for two weeks of fun. I had a great time, and with so many bars, the nights never end.
We did some trips and saw some fab beaches. Paxos was so Greek, it seemed unspoilt.
I recently sent my parents on a last minute getaway to Kavos. They said it was too loud for them and said how much it had changed.
They managed to find a quiter spot and some quieter bars and they enjoyed it.

Family holidays in Greece

From the Daily Mail

When it comes to holidays, Greece offers the best of finds and - if you are not careful - the worst, too.
What it does well, it does brilliantly: small, attractive seaside villages which have slowly developed into charming resorts with simple accommodation and cheap, reliable tavernas. The people are hospitable, generous and friendly, the atmosphere relaxed, safe and perfect for escaping the stresses of life back home.
What it does less well are the bigger, brasher family resorts. Too often they are scruffy and tired-looking, with bumpy roads, narrow, crowded beaches and ageing hotels. In short, they are desperately lacking in the kind of investment that countries such as Spain have poured into tourism. There are some great exceptions, however, and to help you plan the perfect family holiday this summer, here is our guide to finding them.
So where should you go to find the best of Greece in 2001? According to many tour operators, the 'in' destination for 2001 will be Kefalonia - still riding a wave of popularity stemming from the novel Captain Corelli's Mandolin, which was set on the island. There is no doubt that this stunning Ionian island merits the interest - it has great beaches, attractive villages and towns (though many in the south of the island had to be re-built after earthquake damage).
Luckily it is big and mountainous enough to absorb the influx of curious holidaymakers. Even so, if you want to visit, you might consider avoiding the August peak and choosing a quieter time of year. June or September should be perfect.
Other newly emerging destinations are the islands of Ikaria and Patmos in the eastern Aegean. Both are probably a little too quiet for all but the most escapist of families, though there are some good beaches - especially on the north coast of Ikaria. If you prefer to stick to the more tried and tested destinations, here's my selection for summer:
For fun in the sun, my pick would be not a specific resort but a type of holiday, in this case - a sailing club holiday, of which there are several in Greece, offering an excellent mix of children's clubs, sailing and watersports. As a way of occupying (and exhausting) the children while you either relax or try some sailing yourself, they are the epitome of a well-organised, well-thought out package holiday.
If you don't like the thought of organised activities, the north-east coast of Corfu is another excellent option - especially if you prefer somewhere relatively quiet but have teenage children who want to be near some nightlife.
At several points along this stretch of the coast there are small clutches of villas dotted around the hillsides above the sea. Most are just a short drive from Kassiopi, the biggest and most attractive resort on this part of the island and great fun in the evenings.Among the string of small resorts just south of Kassiopi, those that stand out are Kaminaki, which is tiny but very attractive, and Agios Stephanos (sometimes called San Stephano), one of the prettiest, although it has a very small beach.
Corfu has some other good, lively alternatives, especially on the west coast at Agios Gordios, which has a big sandy beach, and Glyfada, a little quieter but also with a good beach. Other islands with a successful mix of nightlife and good beaches are Naxos, Skiathos and Paros. ... more

By far the prettiest resort

It's by far the prettiest resort I've been to for years. Warm weather, lush, green scenery and the impressive Cypress trees.
We found the people very friendly. Loved the quiet walks into little villages. We also enjoyed strolling around the shops of Corfu Town and bought lots of interesting jewellery there.
The best holiday I've had for ages. I would recommend it to anyone. No lager louts around, thank goodness.
