Aeolos Beach Resort

Located on the eastern coast of Corfu, Aeolos Beach Resort is set on a tree-covered hillside, with gardens sloping down to the private beach, equipped with sunbeds and umbrellas. There’s two outdoor pools, including an infinity pool that maximises the view across the Ionian Sea. If you wish to keep fit, you can make use of the onsite gym and tennis courts. Or you may prefer to join an aqua aerobics session. Alternatively, take it easy and visit the spa to relax in the sauna, receive a massage or book a beauty treatment.

Little ones (aged 4-12) can join the mini club, where there’s morning and afternoon sessions. In the evening they have their own disco. The kids also have a play area and a separate pool just for them. While for everyone there’s a full day and evening soft animation program. This includes competitions, live music and folklore dancing.

The main restaurant is open for buffet meals, dishing up a wide range of homemade foods, including kid friendly and gluten free options. The hotel was awarded the ‘Greek Breakfast Award’ for using local ingredients and serving dishes from every region of Greece. Paralia offers an additional place to dine, with its beachfront setting. At lunchtime there’s a buffet comprising pasta, pizza, salads and desserts. In the evening an a la carte service is offered. You’ll get one included dinner here, allowing you to revel in a gourmet selection of regional dishes, accompanied by wine or another beverage of your choice.

The Lagoon Snack Bar allows you to grab light bites between meals. If you’re planning to go on a day trip a picnic basket can be requested (additional charge). Further places to grab a refreshing drink can be found on the beach (open until 6pm), poolside and in the lobby (open until 2am). The All Inclusive service ends at midnight.

The 330 rooms are located across 12 different buildings. On arrival, you’ll spot the fresh flowers and complimentary bottled water in your room. The TV features satellite channels and includes access to free-to-view movies. The sofa can convert into an additional bed for a third person. If you’re travelling as a Family choose the Bungalow option that suits you. The standard type has a sliding door between the double bed and the sofa bed. While the two bed option has a designated sleeping area for the little ones.

Aeolos Beach Resort is just a 12km drive from Corfu Town. Here, you can’t miss the 16th century Old Fortress, built by the Venetians on the site of a Byzantine castle. This is the best place to get a panoramic photo of the town. And if that wasn’t enough, on a clear day you even see the mountainous coast of Albania. The Old Town has a maze of narrow streets, with an excellent selection of places to shop, eat and drink. If you fancy seeing one of the smaller nearby islands, head to the harbour and catch a boat trip to Paxos, where you’ll find endless olive groves and an unspoilt coastline boasting numerous beaches plus spectacular caves and cliffs.
