A modern all-inclusive stay on Corfu’s west coast

Clifftop views and plenty of space to relax

The location is one of the resort’s biggest highlights. Positioned above the coastline near Agios Gordios, the property overlooks wide stretches of the Ionian Sea and has access to a Blue Flag beach. Across the grounds, you’ll find 16 freshwater swimming pools, giving guests plenty of choice between quieter spots and livelier areas. Sunbeds, umbrellas, and beach towels are included, and food and drink service is available around the pool and beach areas, making it easy to settle in for a full day by the water.

Contemporary rooms, suites, and private pool options

Accommodation at Ella Alkyna focuses on clean, modern design with natural materials and neutral tones. Options range from comfortable double rooms to larger junior suites and spacious villas, many of which feature sea views. Some categories also include swim-up access, shared pools, or private pools for guests wanting extra privacy. Across all room types, you’ll find practical touches such as Nespresso machines, pillow menus, air conditioning, spacious bathrooms, and private furnished verandas.

Dining that mixes Greek, Mediterranean, and international flavours

The resort’s dining programme gives guests several different options throughout the day. The Cocúra restaurant serves buffet-style meals with live cooking stations and sections dedicated to Greek, Corfiot, and international dishes. For something different, Lucáta focuses on Italian cuisine, while the NAFS restaurant offers a more refined à la carte menu overlooking the pool and sea. The dining concept also includes the ‘Breakfast Stories’ experience, created by Michelin-starred chef Alexandros Tsiotinis, which highlights seasonal Mediterranean ingredients.

Wellness, entertainment, and ways to explore the island

Away from the beach and pools, the resort has a real focus on wellbeing and experiences that enrich every guest’s stay. The Roée Wellness & Spa includes treatment rooms, a thermal area with sauna and steam facilities, and an indoor relaxation pool. Guests can also use the fitness centre or join yoga and Pilates sessions. During the evening, there are regular entertainment programmes and DJ sets, while curated excursions offer the chance to explore different parts of Corfu, giving guests a wider view of the island beyond the resort.
