The family-owned Greek hospitality group is set to open Avali, a new beachfront resort in Corfu, to its collection of hotels.
Mar-Bella Collection has confirmed plans to host travel agents at its new Corfu hotel, which marks the fourth addition to its portfolio in Greece.
Situated on the beachfront of Agios Ioannis, Avali will be 600m away from the brand’s existing MarBella and Nido hotels when it launches in summer 2025.
The four-storey building, which has emerged from the reconstruction of an existing property, will feature 76 rooms and suites designed for young families, solo travellers, and groups of friends.
It will also include an expansive infinity pool, three acres of lush gardens, and the Beach House, all of which can be used by guests staying at any of the local Mar-Bella Collection properties.
“We are thrilled to announce the upcoming opening of Avali, a new beachfront hotel concept for summer 2025. Our investment in Avali underscores our unwavering commitment to excellence in hospitality as we diversify our offerings to meet the needs of the modern traveller,” said Vassilis Dracopoulos, owner of Mar-Bella Collection.
Avali will focus heavily on gastronomy, offering guests two restaurant concepts and three bars. Its all-day restaurant will serve a buffet breakfast, while an an open kitchen will offer a fusion menu of Mediterranean and Asian dishes for lunch and dinner. In the evening, guests can also dine at an outdoor grill restaurant with views over the sweeping bay.
The brand’s ‘Dine Around’ concept will also mean guests staying in any of its properties can book a la carte restaurants using a daily allowance of €20 per person.
As for wellness, Avali will offer an indoor fitness area, an outdoor shaded yoga deck, and an outdoor spa cabin for private beachside treatments. A watersports centre will also provide standup paddle boards, canoes, and kayaks, while the facilities of sister hotels MarBella and Nido and local tavernas will be within easy walking distance.
Mar-Bella Collection has confirmed that Avali will be hosting agents for fam trips ahead of its official opening in summer 2025.
