MarBella sits at Agios Ioannis Peristeron, on the south-east coast of Corfu, less than half an hour from the Old Town and the airport. A five-star hotel in the Mar-Bella Collection, it spreads across landscaped gardens looking out over the Ionian, and its whole logic is built around families. According to the hotel, readers of Condé Nast Traveller have placed it among the top ten resorts in Greece and Europe for the last five consecutive years.
Rooms and Suites
The rooms and suites have been refurbished, and each has its own balcony or terrace facing the sea, the mountains or the gardens. The range is wide: from Standard and Superior rooms of 28 and 30 square metres, renewed for 2024, to family rooms with a separate sitting room and the Family Interconnecting rooms of around 60 square metres, two rooms that open into one.
The sea-view suites are set in low-rise bungalow buildings, some with a private pool or private garden. The Two Bedroom Bungalow Suite Private Pool, with two bathrooms and its own pool, has the easiest access to the beach; the Two Bedroom Bungalow Suite Sea View, at around 59 square metres, is the most spacious and sleeps up to six. For two, the Junior Suite Grand Terrace has a panoramic terrace with a whirlpool.
At the Table
The hotel has five restaurants, along with a bar, a pool bar, a beach bar and a snack bar. The menus travel from Greece to the Mediterranean and further afield. Alongside all-inclusive, MarBella also offers Premium-All-Inclusive, a more extensive version of the same idea.
For Children, and Everyone Else
This is where the hotel's centre of gravity lies. The Anemelia Aqua Park has eight slides, the new kids' club is eco-oriented and open to children of all ages, and there is a playground, an animation team and babysitting on request. For everyone else, there are pools, private beaches with sunbeds, water sports, a tennis court and table tennis.
Wellness
For rest there is a spa, a sauna, a steam bath and massage, as well as a gym. And when it is time to leave the resort, Corfu is there, with its sights, its cooking and its evening life.
In Essence
MarBella makes no secret of who it is for. It is a resort for families who want space, the sea and enough to do for every age, without straying far from Corfu Town.
