Kontokali Bay Resort & Spa unfurls along a sheltered bay on Corfu’s verdant east coast. The petite village of Kontokali is just 1km away for local tavernas and a taste of everyday island life, while lively Gouvia resort is 3km along the coast. UNESCO-listed Corfu Town lies roughly 5km away – close enough for easy exploring, but far enough to preserve the resort’s tranquil feel.

There’s even a local claim to fame: the area’s pastel-shaded villas and cypress-studded hillsides doubled as the setting for TV drama The Durrells, and you can spot Daffodil Yellow Villa from the hotel’s dock.

Beach: on the beachfront (hotel’s own sandy bay)
Kontokali village centre: approx. 1km
Gouvia resort centre: approx. 3km
Corfu Town (by road): around 5km – hotel shuttle once per morning (once per day)
