Official Category 4* rooms for 2-4, BB/HB/FB

Built on a densely wooded peninsula that gently slopes towards the turquoise waters of the Ionian Sea just 6kms from Corfu Town, the Kontokali Bay Resort and Spa offers a superb luxurious atmosphere.  The peninsula location means that the hotel is all but surrounded by the sea and boasts its own private beach area and a sea water pool.

The main hotel building and the bunglaows are situated in lush green gardens.  Each of the bedrooms in the main building and the bunglaows offer a private terrace or balcony.  Each has a double or twin beds and a small couch or sofa bed (making them suitable for up to 3 guests) whilst family rooms have a separate area (sliding doors) containing an additional 2 single beds (suitable for up to 4 guests).  All have bath/shower, bathroom amenities, bathrobes and slippers, safety deposit box, hairdrier, flat screen satellite TV, air conditioning, minibar, direct dial telephone and wi-fi internet access.  Standard rooms offer garden views – upgrades are available to offer bay views (over the marina of Gouvia) or sea views (over the Ionian towards Corfu Town).  For even more luxury, rooms with private plunge pools are also available.

Dining options at the Kotokali Bay Resort and Spa include a beach-side restaurant, beach tavern (specialising in locally caught fish) and a buffet style restaurant.  There is also a lobby/piano bar and a beach bar.

There are 2 private sandy beach areas where there are plenty of sunbeds available.  The hotel also has the advantage of sundecks that stretch out over the water – cooled by the sea breezes.  Alternatively, there are sunbeds around the infinity style (seawater) swimming pool and throughout the lush gardens of the hotel.

There are a variety of watersports available including waterski-ing, paragliding, wakeboarding, pedaloes and scuba-diving.  Instruction is also available – both watersports and instruction is payable locally.  The hotel’s tennis court is also available – with equipment for rent and tuition available locally.  A variety of daytime and evening activities is laid on by the hotel.  There is also a separate children’s area with playroom, outdoor playground and a separate freshwater childrens pool.

Newly completed is a spa and wellness area (over 16’s only, closed on Sundays) which offers an indoor pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, Hammam, fully equipped gym area, and no less than 9 treatment rooms which offer all of the luxury spa treatments expected.

The luxury Kontokali Bay Resort and Spa quite simply is a hidden gem that deserves its reputation as one of Corfu’s best hotels.
