What stood our about Hanassa was the view, and its convenient location for beach access and the best restaurants in the area. We would return.

The Area
Hanassa rises in a panoramic position on the verdant coastline above the inviting beach of Yaliskari, whose limpid waters and chic beach club-café is just a few minutes' walk away.
Agni beach, with its trio of tavernas, is a 10-to-15-minute walk away along a coastal path (a bit narrow, rocky and undulating and not lit at night). Kalami Bay, which is home to a couple of well-stocked minimarkets, a few tavernas and bars, a pebbly beach, and boat hire suppliers, is a 20minute walk. On the bay's southern edge is the famous White House, once the residence of the writer Lawrence Durrell, now a seafront restaurant and bar where you can sit and imagine James Bond stopping in for a Vodka Martini (parts of For Your Eyes Only were filmed there).
There are numerous other beaches with tavernas nearby, including those at Nissaki and Agios Stefanos. For a larger selection of bars, tavernas and shops (or for a spot of nightlife) bustling Kassiopi is just a 15-minute drive away.
Heading south, meanwhile, charming Corfu Town with its fortifications and the historic labyrinth of streets is about 50 minutes' drive and well worth spending a day or two exploring.
If you're travelling with kids, there are plenty of stimulating activities and attractions for children within easy reach.

Private boat charters in Corfu
In our opinion, there is no more liberating way to explore Corfu and its neighbouring islands than by spending a day or two on a boat, dropping anchor to dive into the sea, and popping into a taverna for a delicious lunch. Let us book you in for one of our exclusive skippered charters so that you can cruise in supreme style.

Boat rental on Corfu
A holiday in the sun would not be complete without exploring the breath-taking coastline, majestic cliffs and glistening azure sea that your destination has to offer. The best way to experience this spectacle is from your very own rental boat, pottering along at a leisurely pace and occasionally stopping off to drop anchor and swim in secluded bays.
