Nido Mar-Bella Collection is perched on Corfu’s tranquil east coast in Agios Ioannis, a laid-back stretch of shoreline ideal for unhurried escapes. Nestled above the coastal road, the hotel gazes out over the Ionian Sea, with pine-dotted hills rising behind and a narrow sweep of champagne-hued sand and shingle below.

The resort itself is low-key: think traditional tavernas, a handful of shops and waterfront bars rather than nightlife. It’s perfect if you want to dip into Corfu Town’s culture or nearby villages by day, then retreat to an elegant, adults-only hideaway each evening.

What All Inclusive typically includes.

The showpiece of Nido Mar-Bella Collection is its elevated outdoor freshwater infinity pool, seemingly spilling into the Ionian Sea. It’s fringed by cushioned sunbeds and parasols, with towel service included, and feels wonderfully peaceful thanks to the adults-only policy.

From the terraced grounds, it’s just a short stroll to the nearby beach, where pale sand and shingle meet calm, clear water. This stretch of Corfu’s east coast tends to be sheltered and gently shelving, ideal for relaxed sea swims before you wander back up for an apéritif by the pool.
