Angsana Corfu
Banyan Tree is known for its jaw-dropping yet sustainable resorts in Asia, and this, their first European location, is everything you’ve come to expect and more. Guest rooms are nothing less than ginormous (starting at 420 square feet), each fitted with a balcony, marble-lined bathroom, and clean-lined, ecru-hued interiors that feel instantly serene. We love the Ionian Seaview Corner Suite for its 861 square foot floor plan and postcard-perfect panorama over the sea beyond your floor to ceiling glass doors. To feel as free-range as the bottlenose dolphins that live in the waters below, opt for the Ionian Seaview One-Bedroom Pool Villa, which has a kitchenette, separate living room and its own private daybed-lined pool.
A Banyan Tree outpost with all the glamour you’ve come to expect: including a showstopping infinity pool, 159 airy guest rooms and 37 pool villas, a rooftop bar and nine other buzzing bars and restaurants, private beach, and an Asian-inspired spa.
Boring. This isn’t your parents’ Greek honeymoon; activities here range from body scrub workshops using local herbs to regional olive oil tastings.
The hotel has its own private beach complete with a beach bar. Plus, the spa would satisfy Aphrodite herself, with its Rainmist treatments—you can indulge in, say, a ginger body polish and massage before a steamy rain shower.
You have sweeping 360-degree views of Corfu from your al fresco table at the hotel’s fifth floor Vertigo Sky Bar, but it’s the DJ and rapidly falling twilight that’s truly flying you to the moon.
