Overview

 
Restia Suites is a grown-up hideaway on Corfu’s peaceful north coast, combining traditional Greek styling with the feel of a chic villa retreat. This intimate, adults-only property has just 30 suites, many with indoor whirlpools or private pools, set beside the long sands of Acharavi Beach. Expect calm days by the pool, unhurried dinners under the stars and easy strolls to seafront tavernas, all framed by views of the Ionian Sea and Corfu’s green mountains.

Fronting a quiet stretch of Acharavi’s beach and backed by olive-draped hills, Restia Suites feels made for unhurried Greek island days. Laze by the freshwater pool, wander straight onto the sand for sunset strolls, then return to suites with whirlpool baths or even your own private pool. With just 30 suites and an adults-only policy, the atmosphere stays blissfully calm from breakfast on the terrace to the last nightcap at the bar. For couples seeking Corfu’s laid-back, green north rather than the island’s livelier resorts, Restia Suites is a standout choice. It sits right on the beachfront in Acharavi, with shops and tavernas around a 10-minute walk away, and the resort centre around 2.3km further along the coast. Transfer time from Corfu Airport (CFU) is around 2 hours by road. See more Greece holidays.

Restia Suites occupies a privileged spot on the seafront at Acharavi, on Corfu’s quieter north coast. The hotel opens directly onto the broad, 3km-long beach, ideal for sunrise swims and sunset walks with the mountains as your backdrop.

A 500m stroll brings you to the nearest shops, bars and restaurants, while Acharavi’s main resort centre is just over 2km away for a wider choice of tavernas, low-key bars and cafés. Ramblers are well placed for the famous Corfu Trail and the slopes of Mount Pantokrator, with its villages, viewpoints and Roman ruins dotted along the hillsides.

This is a great base if you want to mix beach time with exploring traditional Corfiot countryside, but still enjoy easy access to everyday amenities.
