Nautilus Hotel

Nautilus Hotel, Corfu

Highlights:

• Views for Days 🌊 – Wake up to that swoon-worthy Ionian Sea vista. Trust us, it’s worth a hundred Insta posts.

• Family Fun HQ 🎈 – The Nautilus knows how to keep the kiddos happy, with a playground, ping-pong tables, and a pool just for them.

• Beach on Demand ☀️ – Don’t feel like walking? Say no more. The hotel runs a daily shuttle to Barbati Beach, one of Corfu’s finest.

Location: Perfectly Positioned for Maximum Holiday Vibes

• Nearest Town: Ipsos (2 km away) – This little town is all charm and buzz. Think shops, bars, restaurants, and everything you need for those spontaneous “We need ice cream now!” moments.

• Nearest Beach: Barbati Beach (800 metres) – Yep, you can basically smell the salt water from the hotel. Barbati’s pebbly shores and crystal-clear water await, plus it’s Blue Flag, so you know it’s legit.

• Nearest Airport: Corfu International Airport (20 km) – A quick 30-minute drive from the airport, so you’ll be sipping a welcome cocktail in no time. Just how it should be.

Rooms: Sweet Dreams and Sea Breezes Await

If you’re after that sunlit Mediterranean vibe, the Nautilus rooms don’t disappoint. Here’s what you’ll find:

• Air Conditioning: To keep you cool when the sun’s bringing the heat.

• Private Balcony

• En-Suite Bathroom

• Safe Deposit Box: Stash your cash, passport, and perhaps your secret stash of Lays crisps.

• Fridge: Essential for keeping your drinks (and midnight snacks) chilly. Think Fanta Lemon, 24/7.

Room types cater to every crew size, from couples to families. They’ve got double and twin setups, along with bigger options for when you’ve got the whole fam tagging along.

Food & Drink: Fuel Up for All the Pool Lounging

Kick off your day with the breakfast buffet – think everything from fluffy pastries and fresh fruits to local favourites. Go ahead, load up, it’s a judgement-free zone. If you’re a fan of poolside munching, the snack bar has you covered for light bites and cold bevvies throughout the day. It’s all perfectly designed to keep you topped up without interrupting your serious tanning schedule.

And as the sun starts to dip? Head over to the hotel bar where the magic happens. This spot is a fave for evening cocktails with a view. Imagine kicking back with a drink in hand, watching the sunset. Absolute bliss.

Sports & Entertainment: Fun and Games for All Ages

Here’s where the Nautilus Hotel goes all out. There’s something for everyone – whether you’re in the mood to get sporty, splash around, or just unwind. Highlights include:

• Swimming Pool: One for the adults, and a kids’ pool too. Both come complete with sunbeds, umbrellas, and poolside chill vibes.

• Ping-Pong Table: Get your competitive side going. Loser buys the next round of snacks?

• Basketball Hoop: Nothing says “holiday bonding” like a friendly dunk contest.

• Waterfront Access: Feel like snorkeling? There’s direct access to the sea, so you can dive in and discover the local marine life. Bring your goggles – who knows what you’ll spot down there!

For the young (or young at heart), there’s also a playground for the kiddos, plus the general resort area offers plenty of entertainment options so you’ll never hear “I’m bored.”

Things to Do in the Local Area: Get Out and Explore, You Adventure Seeker You

The Nautilus Hotel is just a hop, skip, and a flip-flop away from some of Corfu’s coolest spots. Here’s the local lowdown:

• Corfu Town: This UNESCO World Heritage site is about 25 minutes away and is packed with cobblestone streets, charming cafes, and souvenir shops galore. You’ll feel like you’re walking through a Greek postcard.

• Achilleion Palace: Fancy a bit of history? This former royal pad is the spot for culture lovers. Once the summer retreat of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, this palace is brimming with grandeur.

• Boat Tours Galore: Corfu’s coastline is just begging to be explored, and a boat trip is the best way to do it. Jump on a local tour and discover hidden beaches, secluded coves, and maybe even make friends with a dolphin.

• Hiking Mount Pantokrator: Adventure seekers, this one’s for you. Corfu’s highest peak promises panoramic views that are totally worth the trek. Bring your trainers and a water bottle – and a camera for those top-of-the-world photos.

• Local Cuisine: You haven’t truly done Corfu until you’ve feasted on sofrito, pastitsada, and fresh seafood by the shore. There are plenty of tavernas nearby, and each one’s got its own special touch.
