Corfu: Dive into crystal clear seawater at Marbella Corfu
If you are seeking an extra dose of sunshine this summer, the Greek Island of Corfu (Kerkyra) ticks lots of boxes for a European getaway. Not only is the climate excellent throughout the summer months, but the island also boasts extremely calm seawater, which lends itself well to snorkeling.
One of the most popular places to stay on the island is the Marbella Corfu Hotel. This is a large luxury beach property that is located on the south east coast and it welcomes families and can accommodate groups. It provides lots of entertainment options within the complex. It is also popular with some couples and the private beach boasts spectacular views of the mainland.
The decked area by the beach
An extensive decked area by the beach allows you to enjoy the best of the sea. The decking stretches from the coastline out into crystal clear water. From the decking, you can dive into the calm water with your snorkel and swim with beautiful fish and sea creatures. The beach area is certainly the main highlight of this hotel. However, the venue also boasts several swimming pools and Jacuzzis that provide an alternative option for water babies.
This year, MarBella Corfu has launched some brand new suites to add to its substantial collection of rooms. These suites have been designed to offer guests some additional space. The new Junior Suites are equipped with a terrace that has a private pool, which is ideal for those who want to take some time away from the vibrant atmosphere in the shared areas. Some of the suites also include a whirlpool and panoramic view of the coastline.
