If you're looking for authentic charm then this is the place to go .I went with two friends and had a wonderful time in the village of Serenaded.The local people were very friendly and helpful.Silvy and Avasio were great hosts helpful and welcoming they were staying close by .The house was clean and very very safe quite basic but the price does reflect this however it had everything we needed and enjoyed every minute. A short bus ride to the beach or u can walk if you like walking.Also a small museum worth a look Friendly tavanas especially the Tavanas Arxontariki serving excellent home grown food at good price also excellent home made wine We had a wonderful time and would recommend Lynne Theresa and Ann

We stayed at Silvys pretty village apartment for a blissful month, the house was full of charm and was very comfortable. Silvy had equiped the house well and along with her husband Avasio provided us with a very warm welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they were very friendly hosts. If you are looking for a relaxing authentic experience to rest the body and mind then this is the place to go.

Totally authentic experience in an 1860 converted Corfu village home. Our hosts provided extensive information., Prior to visit, hostess Sylvy answered email queries immediately, sending maps and directions.,On arrival in the village we were taken to our appartment - which was exactly as described - basic but very clean and comfortable. Our patio area was naturally shaded by an overhead vine, alongside red/pink geraniums and bergonias It was a joy to sit out muching our lunch with huge Greek tomatoes, olives and feta cheese purchased from the village minimarket; later to amble (down steps and slopes so one needs to be physically able) to the village taverna..Here dinner is fresh, home-cooked and home-grown as ingredients mostly originate from the owner's farm. Surrounding landscape is breathtaking and village itself ancient, with typical flowering pots, restored houses and ruins all together. Rare to find "real" Corfu so near beach and amenities.Great holiday experience.

Nous avons passé 15 jours magnifiques dans le petit village de Sinarades. Un dépaysement total et des hôtes très accueillants et aux petits soins pour nous. Le village est idéalement situé, et l' on peut facilement accéder à plein d'endroit de l'île. L'appartement est très bien, et nous n'avons pas souffert de la chaleur grâce aux ventilateurs. De plus, il est situé dans une petite court très calme et très fleurie où l'on peut prendre son repas dans une atmopshère très agréable. Nos deux petits garçons étaient également enchantés par ce séjour. Le soir, les habitants se retrouvent et discutent ensemble et les enfants jouent sur la place centrale. Nous avons pu assister a quelques fêtes locales loin des foules de touristes :)

What a fantastic apartment - very clean and charming with a well equipped kitchen, outside eating area under a vine surrounded by flowers and a perfect location in the centre of a beautiful town. During our trip we travelled all over the island and Sinarades was one of the few places to feel truly Corfiot - lots of locals sitting out in the evenings, few tourists and plenty of beautiful scenes of crumbling plaster, sleeping cats and lemon trees and a local fiesta. With a car we were in easy reach of Agios gordios but also rocky beaches such as Paleokastritsa. Silvy and Evasio are wonderful hosts and we felt we were staying with good friends rather than in a holiday apartment. Agios gordios is a long sandy beach with lots of bars at one end and wild at the other end with a shipwreck so the best of both worlds.
