Kids can make waves on the children's pool, while grown-up guests sup on cocktails or make their way to the tennis courts located 150m from the hotel.

Groupon RecommendsMake the 10-minute trip into Corfu Town to experience a unique architectural vista that takes inspiration from the Sicilian, Venetian, and French styles that have previously dominated the island. The centre's elegant facades are headed up by two fortresses set to the east and west, welcoming visitors in from both sides. The old fortress is situated at the east end of the island and houses ancient barracks and a 19th century church as well as a postcard-worthy spot for snapping a few pictures. If you're keen to try out different beaches, a 30-minute trip across to Agios Gordios will bring you to one of the more popular sunny spots. This sandy shore is set against a rocky backdrop and offers all and sundry in the form of beachy facilities.

Top TipTo catch a more authentic view of this Greek island, head to the Campielo district where a more residential feel pervades; brightly-coloured laundry decorates narrow side-streets which twist and turn to bring fountains and plazas into view.
