Author:Janeen Christoff 2023-10-09 01:40 63

The all-inclusive Dreams Corfu Resort & Spa in Corfu, Greece, blends the seamlessness of Inclusive Collection hotels with an idyllic European setting. The property, perched on Gouvia Bay, feels secluded and the calm waters of the sea provide an almost lakeside feel. Guests wake to colorful sunrises and, as the sun sets, the resorts' seaside restaurants come to life. 

Guestrooms

Guestrooms at the resort are spacious by European standards and offer excellent in-room amenities. There are a total of 327 rooms on the property and they include double rooms, family rooms, bungalows and suites. 

Each room features a balcony or terrace and views of either the gardens or the sea. Double, garden-view rooms include a king-size bed or two twins as well as a sofa bed and can sleep three guests. These rooms have a furnished balcony or terrace, a minibar, a capsule espresso machine and rain shower. 

There is also the option for family rooms, suites and bungalows. The Family Suite Sea View sleeps four guests with a king-size bed and two single beds. The difference between these rooms is size and the view. The rest of the in-room amenities are the same.

Guests also have the option to stay in the Bungalows. These rooms are slightly more secluded but come with similar amenities. The oceanview bungalows are the closest to the water of any of the rooms at the resort.

Preferred Club

I highly recommend enhancing the guest room experience with an upgrade to Preferred Club. 

Guests staying in Preferred Club rooms have access to a special lounge area with self-service top-shelf spirits, a daily continental breakfast, afternoon snacks and complimentary computer access. 

Rooms and suites are more spacious and feature added amenities such as a beach bag with a towel and suites feature separate sitting areas as well as terraces and balconies. The preferred accommodations are in the best areas of the resort and include a pillow menu and an extended selection of bathroom amenities. 

Preferred Club guests also receive a private check-in, checkout as well as exclusive concierge services.

Dining

One of the highlights of Dreams Corfu is its all-inclusive dining. The food was fresh and flavorful and the drinks were top-notch. There are four a la carte dining options on the property as well as the international World Cafe buffet. 

World Cafe is open for all three meals while the Barefoot Grill snack bar opened for drinks and snacks from 11 a.m. Coco Cafe opens at 6 a.m. with handcrafted coffee beverages and pastries and snacks throughout the day and into the evening. 

Yiayia, the a la carte Greek restaurant is not to be missed. The menu features traditional Greek recipes and famous grilled dishes, including Corfiot delights curated by the executive chef. Every dish we had was delicious making it hard to choose which was the best. 

The Seaside Grill was another delectable dining experience with fresh seafood offerings including shrimp, grilled seafood, a variety of salads and beautiful desserts. 

Guests can also enjoy a quaint Italian trattoria-style dining, perfect for families with a la carte service and a menu that serves up the classics, including fresh pizza and pasta.

Activities

There are three pools on the property, one dedicated to the Preferred Club guests and for swim-up suites. There is also a spa with a variety of treatments available from Natura Bisse. A dedicated beach area, perched on Gouvia Bay, features beach chairs and access to the calm waters of the sea for swimming.

There is both a kids and teens club on the property. The Explorer's Club is for children ages 4 to 12 and offers an array of activities that include games and painting, nature and science and exploring. There are outdoor play structures and slides as well. The Core Zone teens club features daily activities such as sports and water games. There are gaming options, including a Playstation 5 and Nintendo Switch. 

A fitness center is open 24/7 and offers a studio room, spinning bikes, cross trainers, treadmills, rowing, chest press, pull down, ab crunch, cable station, dump bells and bench. There is an outdoor multisport court for basketball, football, volleyball and more.

Exploring the Destination 

One of the most important things for guests to do is to explore the charming destination of Corfu.

The island, located in the Ionian Sea, is home to just over 100,000 people. Its charming Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that dates back to the 8th century B.C. It's position at the entrance to the Adriatic Sea gave Corfu strategic value and the island was used for four centuries to protect the maritime trading interests of the Republic of Venice from the Ottoman Empire. 

The town features Venetian-style architecture and three forts designed by renowned Venetian engineers as well as a host of other important sites for tourists. Guests can organize any number of journeys from Dreams Corfu to the area's stunning beaches such as Paleokastritsa Beach, one of the island's most popular destinations. 

Another popular tourist attraction is Mouse Island and the church of Panagia Vlaherna, which are connected to the mainland by a narrow pathway. 

Visitors can stroll through the Old Town, tour the Old Fortress, enjoy gelato in Spianada Square and shop for local handicrafts throughout the charming, narrow cobblestone streets. 

Travelers heading to Greece can book their entire journey with ALG Vacations, which offers a range of options around Greece and Europe as a whole to which a stay at Dreams Corfu Resort & Spa would be the ideal complement.
