Komeno - Corfu

Perhaps it is because the two coastal resorts are situated on a peninsula, that the rich are attracted to these beautiful Corfu locations. The most striking difference might be that the wealthy Greeks have built their pleasant villas in Komeno, while mainly the English jetset choose Agios Stefanos as the appropriate place to own a villa.
The fact is that Komeno is beautifully located and highly recommended to spend your vacation on Corfu. A picturesque nature, a huge hiking area, beautiful villas with lush flower gardens, an incredibly beautiful bay with several finger-licking beaches, that is Komeno.
