Luxury all-inclusive brand Ikos Resorts will add a sixth property next May with the opening of Ikos Odisia in Corfu.
Ikos Odisia will be the second Ikos property to open on the Greek island and will be set in woodland overlooking a bay, across from Ikos Dassia.
The beachfront resort is a 25-minute drive from Corfu’s international airport and 12 miles from the Unesco World Heritage site of Old Town Corfu.
It will have 395 rooms, suites, bungalows and villas across 60 acres plus five a la carte restaurants, with menus created by Michelin-star chefs, as well as a Mediterranean buffet-style restaurant.

Included as part of their stay, guests can dine at selected local restaurants, including one on Vidos Island, only accessible by private boat.
The Local Drive Adventure also allows guests to explore the destination with free car hire for a day, and free museum tickets.
The resort will offer 10 heated outdoor and indoor pools, including kids and adults-only pools, plus a beach waiter service.
It will also have a spa and fitness centre and activities such as tennis, canoeing, mountain biking and windsurfing.
Free kids’ clubs cater for children and teens aged four to 17, while guests with babies and toddlers can also take advantage of the Heroes Crèche and babysitting services.
The resort will generate 700 new jobs, with at least half the positions filled by locals.
Ikos Odisia will also establish sustainable hotel operations under the Ikos Green programme, including being carbon neutral and implementing zero waste initiatives.
Room rates at Ikos Odisia start from €346 (about £297) per night for a double room on an all-inclusive basis.
Other Ikos Resorts properties are in Halkidiki and Kos islands in Greece, and in Estepona, Spain.
