Corfu Holiday Palace - Corfu

Overlooking the island of Pontikonissi and the Ionian Sea, Corfu Holiday Palace is an affordable hotel located close to the airport.

Surrounded by gardens, with picturesque sea views on one side and the lake on the other, the hotel provides a convenient location for your holiday. Corfu Airport is two miles away, with the runway parallel to the lake on one side of the hotel – where you can see planes landing and taking off. Corfu’s historic old town, providing a warren of streets housing bars, restaurants and shops, is a 20-minute drive away and Vlacherna Monastery - which can be seen from the hotel - is a 10-minute stroll.

Rooms at Corfu Holiday Palace vary in size, style and location - some have undergone refurbishment and others are more traditional in style. For an exclusive feel, the Ionian Blue Suites with Sharing Pool have access to a pool shared between neighbouring accommodation, facing private gardens with views of the sea beyond. Families will enjoy the Family Bungalows, offering maisonette-style accommodation with a bedroom upstairs and living room on the lower level, leading onto a terrace. For the best views and the most peaceful setting, choose a room with a sea view.

The hotel offers two pools - one indoors and a saltwater pool outdoors. If you’re looking to relax closer to the sea, the beach can be accessed via a funicular cable car. Head to the spa for a Wellness Holiday Experience, available from May to October, and indulge in facials, massages, slimming therapies and nail treatments. Corfu Golf Club is ten miles from the hotel, sat in the picturesque Ropa Valley, where you can practise your game among lush grounds.

Tuck into buffet dining in the morning at Eptanissa Restaurant, where freshly baked pastries, hot and cold dishes are on offer. When you’re relaxing by the beach, Brachera Beach Bar is on hand for refreshing cocktails, Greek souvlaki, burgers and salads. At dinner time, return to Eptanissa, where you can sample cuisine from around the world on different theme nights, including Greek and Corfiot specialties. Don’t miss a visit to Kefi Bar, where celebrated barman George mixes cocktails as you listen to live music.
