VENUE

A Premier Wedding Venue in Corfu

Villa Merlin beckons with its natural allure and outdoor charm. The venue’s strategic location at the beginning of Dassia offers the perfect setting for weddings in Corfu, since it is situated next from the picturesque church of Ipapanti and very close to Corfu Town.

Today’s enchanting Villa Merlin bears a name that resonates deeply with Corfu’s heritage. The property, once home to members of the distinguished Merlin family, shares its prestigious name with Sydney Merlin – the British botanist and nobleman who transformed the island’s agricultural landscape, introducing the now-iconic kumquat and cultivating the renowned “Merlin” oranges that have become synonymous with Corfu’s citrus tradition.

This rich heritage forms the foundation for what Villa Merlin represents today – an exclusive events venue where celebrations come to life while the venue offers an atmospheric blend of historic charm and contemporary sophistication for your special day.

Spanning an impressive 14 acres, Villa Merlin unfolds across two magnificent levels. The upper level showcases the historic villa and features an elegant welcome drink area that offers stunning views over the main celebration space below. A grand marble staircase serves as the perfect stage for the couple’s classy entrance, leading gracefully to the main level where the magic of celebration unfolds.

The main level is thoughtfully designed for seamless entertaining, featuring a stylish pergola equipped with state-of-the-art buffet facilities and a dedicated preparation area. This level harmoniously combines a sophisticated bar and elegant guest seating, all set on a lush lawn, centered around an inviting dance floor where memorable moments come to life.

Villa Merlin emerged from a complete outdoor transformation in 2023 while the modern facilities now include thoughtfully designed restrooms featuring two ladies’ rooms, two gentlemen’s rooms and a fully accessible bathroom. True to our commitment to inclusivity, all outdoor areas throughout the estate offer seamless accessibility.
