The Best Hotels in Corfu for the Ultimate Greek Island Escape
Corfu, a wonderful island in the Ionian Sea, was shaped by the mixture of cultures that consecutively dominated the area. Here the human element combines harmoniously with lush landscapes and amazing beaches. Many tourists are attracted by the beauty of this Greek island, leading to rapid growth of tourist infrastructure. Read on for some of the best hotels on the island of the Phaeacians.
1. Domes Miramare Corfu
Resort, Hotel, Luxury
Once the hotel of choice for Jackie O and Maria Callas, Domes Miramare still delivers luxury, but with amenities that surpass 21st-century traveller expectations. White-washed walls, marble finishes, mosaic-tiled ensuites with walk-in showers and outdoor patios come as standard; the VIP experience brings private swimming pools and jacuzzis that look over the Ionian Sea. Attentive service results in a bespoke itinerary of experiences, and this personalisation trickles down to the spa, where tailor-made treatments are delivered with prestigious products, such as Elemis and Codage Paris. For a memorable experience, board the Miramaretta for a coastline boat ride.
2. Boukari Beach Accommodation
Independent Hotel, Apartment
Consisting of four types of accommodation, Boukari caters to every holiday type. If you don’t want to be far from the beach, Villa Lucia has two-bedroom apartments by the coastline. Favour sunset-watching from the confines of your holiday home? The Villa Alexandra apartments have sea-view balconies. If you’re up for spontaneous adventures, stay at Hotel Penelope: the Vlachopoulos family, who run the hotel, have bikes for guests to ride along the shoreline. Finally, Villa Boukari Beach sits near the family restaurant, where a tasting of Mama Lucia’s lobster in special Corfu sauce shouldn’t be missed.
3. Rodostamo Hotel & Spa
Spa Hotel, Hotel, Luxury
Situated in the enchanting Kommeno bay, you’ll struggle to find better views. Admire the rays reflecting off the Ionian Sea while swimming in the hotel pool, or while in the jacuzzi of the Panorama Bungalow suite. But nothing can quite beat the glistening sight of the night-lit bay, to be viewed while consuming the local, fresh fish of the day at RR-Rodostamo restaurant. Olive trees, fuschia-adorned white exteriors and a lookout onto the historic Ypapanti Chapel provide further social-feed fodder.
