See Greece’s pick of where to stay in southern Corfu including hotels in Moraitika, Paramonas, Messonghi, Agios Georgios and near Benitses.
Here’s our very select list of where to stay in Southern Corfu. It’s just five places but we’ve only picked ones that we can personally recommend from staying in them. They include stylish resort hotels and tucked-away hidden gems, and we’ve tried to spread it around a little geographically.
Where to Stay in Southern Corfu
Sentido Apollo Palace
apollopalace-corfu.com
The Sentido Apollo Palace is an impressive and inexpensive option for the popular resort of Messonghi, its rooms mostly being in individual units spread around the large and lush gardens, almost like living in a little Greek village. It even has its own small church, but more conventional amenities too like swimming pools, bar, and restaurant. It’s also right by the beach, which is reached by a pleasant stroll through the grounds.
Delfinia
delfiniahotels.gr
The Delfinia comprises three separate buildings all more or less facing the sea across trees and green lawns, and only five minutes from the centre of Moraïtika. There are a couple of pools, tennis courts, water sports at the beach, lots of indoor and outdoor activities for children, bars, and restaurants: in fact you hardly need leave the grounds.
Golden Sands
corfugoldensands.com
Right by the beach in Agios Georgios that gives the hotel its name, the Golden Sands has 83 rooms with most of them having a view of the sea. All rooms are done out in modern hotel-style, nothing fancy but clean and comfortable. They all have fridge, TV, air-conditioning and direct-dial phones, and the hotel, which is about five minutes from the centre of town, provides two pools, a children’s playground, bars, a restaurant, and Greek dancing on summer evenings.
Valmar Corfu

The Valmar Cordu is in Agios Ioannis Melitieon, a 5-minute drive south from Benitses. It’s a 4-star all-inclusive hotel that stands above the road overlooking a beach and the sea, and with wooded hills all around. It’s got two pools, a waterpark, a tennis court, other sporting facilities, organized children’s activities, a mini-market, and many other facilities.
Hotel Paramonas
paramonas-hotel.com
In the as-yet hardly developed little bay at Paramonas, with just a few tavernas and a sprinkling of low-key accommodation for company, the lovely spacious Hotel Paramonas is separated from the sea by a hundred metres of vines, vegetables, palm trees, and colourful flowers. You walk from the car park over a bridge that crosses a stream, which at night is filled with the sound of frogs… and a few ducks from a nearby house. It’s a modern property in which there are 22 very spacious rooms, 20 with sea views and balconies, and two more suites at the back, which are even bigger and with private terraces. It also has a bar, with breakfast served inside or on the front terrace.
