Elix Mar-Bella Collection
Perdika | Greece
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Perched high above the unspoilt curve of Karavostasi Beach, Elix Mar-Bella Collection feels more like a stylish hideaway than a typical family resort. Glass-fronted terraces frame endless Ionian Sea views, sleek pools spill towards the shoreline, and a funicular whisks you down to the sand in moments. With thoughtful All Inclusive Plus, four excellent restaurants and polished service, it’s a refined yet relaxed choice for couples and families who want design-led luxury without losing that easy Greek island pace.
An amphitheatre-style setting above the Ionian Sea, Elix Mar-Bella Collection pairs cinematic views with a contemporary, minimalist aesthetic. Think pale stone, floor-to-ceiling glass and infinity-edge pools tumbling towards the horizon. Below, the long sweep of Karavostasi’s sand and shingle is reached by funicular, while inside the resort you’ll find smart, family-friendly facilities, attentive staff and a level of polish that feels boutique despite the generous scale.
For couples and families seeking Greece’s quieter north-west coast rather than the big-name islands, Elix Mar-Bella Collection delivers that just-discovered feel: a secluded hilltop position, lush pine-clad slopes and a near-empty beach below. It’s around 1 hour 30 minutes from Preveza (PVK) airport. See more Greece holidays.

Location | Elix Mar-Bella Collection
Location
Elix Mar-Bella Collection clings to a pine-covered hillside above Karavostasi Beach on Greece’s north-west coast, overlooking the Ionian Sea and distant islands. The setting feels wonderfully remote, yet you’re within easy reach of handsome harbour towns and traditional villages.
Perdika itself is a low-key, authentic base dotted with olive groves and family-run tavernas, while postcard-pretty Parga and chic Sivota are close enough for day trips and sunset cocktails on the waterfront. This quiet corner of Epirus is ideal if you want a more natural, untouristy side of Greece with all the comfort of a modern 5-star resort.

Dining is a real strength at Elix Mar-Bella Collection, with thoughtful menus for both grown-ups and younger travellers.
Saffron Buffet Main Restaurant is the laid-back hub for breakfast, lunch and dinner, serving international and Greek dishes with show cooking, children’s options and highchairs.
Down at beach level, Azure Beach Restaurant delivers relaxed à la carte lunches and snacks with an Ionian backdrop, while Indigo Pool Restaurant keeps things casual-chic by the pool with Italian and international flavours from morning to night.
For a special evening, Pearl À La Carte Fine Dining pairs creative Greek cuisine with panoramic views from the roof terrace – dress a little smarter here, especially in the evening.
You’re never far from a drink either:
• Azure Beach Bar – toes-in-the-sand refreshments by day
• Pool Bar – cooling drinks and ice cream between dips
• Ruby Lobby Bar – the social heart of the hotel, open late for cocktails and live music nights
Please note: a smart dress code applies in some venues (no beachwear; long trousers requested for gentlemen in selected restaurants). Reservations may be required, and inclusions vary by board basis and length of stay.
