Elix, Mar-Bella Collection
This hillside escape, perched above a stretch of glorious beachfront, is both grand and welcoming. Guests are greeted by a picturesque infinity pool, a choice of restaurants and modern accommodations with windows framing stunning coastal views. Almost every aspect of the hotel acts as a viewing platform for guests to soak up the sight and sound of the sea.
Arguably the star of the show is Karavostasi, a sandy, peaceful beach fringed by the iridescent waters of the Ionian Sea, where a well-equipped watersports centre enables guests to make the most of their time by the water. For those wanting to keep their feet dry, there’s also a fitness centre, two tennis courts, an Elixir spa and several boutiques.
When it comes to room options, the choice is varied, including swim-up doubles with sea views, spacious family suites and stunning junior suites with private pools. As you wander the grounds you’ll be met by the smell of the sweet-scented herbs and plants that permeates the air and complements the fresh flavours of the Mediterranean-inspired restaurants. Located on the roof terrace, the Pearl restaurant is the jewel in the crown, serving local cuisine accompanied by an extensive Greek wine list. The village of Perdika is also only a short drive away and is well equipped with tavernas, pizzerias, grills and cafes.
