The Olivar Suites

Somewhere quiet

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.

Messonghi's sand-and-pebble beach sits right outside, and Corfu Town's Venetian lanes are a forty-minute drive up the coast.

The Olivar Suites

The rooms

Dry-stone walls enclose private courtyards with timber pergolas, and most suites have their own plunge pool.
