MarBella Mar-Bella Collection

Agios Ioannis – Corfu | Corfu

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

 
Boasting a dramatic hillside setting, sweeping Ionian Sea views and lush landscaped gardens, MarBella Mar-Bella Collection is one of Corfu’s standout luxury family resorts. Two shimmering pools, a full-on Anemelia Aqua Park, refined spa, and an impressive line-up of five restaurants and six bars are all wrapped into an elevated All Inclusive Plus concept. Thoughtfully designed rooms and suites, from cosy doubles to Signature Life pool suites, mean couples and families are equally well looked after, while regular entertainment, kids’ clubs and easy access to the beach keep everyone busy from sunrise to sunset.

Think endless blue seascapes, terraced pools edged with loungers, and contemporary low-rise buildings cascading down a green hillside to a shingle-sand beach. MarBella Mar-Bella Collection marries sleek styling with warm Greek hospitality – and the All Inclusive Plus programme layers in à la carte dining, premium drinks and curated experiences such as boat trips and watersports to transform a classic beach holiday into a resort-based escape you don’t need to leave.

For couples and families seeking Corfu’s softer, greener east coast charm, MarBella Mar-Bella Collection delivers the perfect balance of resort buzz and relaxed Ionian scenery. It’s approximately 1 hour from CFU airport. See more Greece holidays.

Location

Perched on a verdant hillside above the Ionian Sea, MarBella Mar-Bella Collection overlooks the laid-back resort of Agios Ioannis Peristeron on Corfu’s east coast. The setting feels pleasantly secluded, yet you’re close enough to explore nearby Moraitika’s shops and tavernas or head into UNESCO-listed Corfu Town for cobbled lanes, fortresses and waterfront cafés.

The hotel’s beach lies just across the coastal road, reached via a dedicated underground passage so you don’t have to worry about traffic. It’s a shingle-sand strip with typically calm waters – ideal for sea swims, paddling or hopping on a canoe or pedalo.

• 200m from the beach (accessible via an underground passage)
