The 2024 season sees some exciting changes for MarBella, a part of Mar-Bella Collection. Room renovations and a new restaurant will both be unveiled when the property opens on April 25, 2024.
Room Renovations
Following extensive room renovations last season, which included eight new room types, this year will see the final stage of the renovation completed, with new room types, including spacious rooms tailored for couples, two plus one rooms for smaller families – complete with a double bed and a luxurious sofa bed, offering an optimal layout for families of three. Furthermore, the implementation of the latest technologies will be integrated throughout all renovated rooms and suites.
New Restaurant: Kuzina:
This year will see a new F&B offering at MarBella, with the opening of Mediterranean restaurant Kuzina creating a hub for gastronomy around the central pools area. With a name that translates to ‘kitchen’ – chosen to reflect the vibrant open kitchen that will take centre stage in the heart of the new restaurant – Kuzina will take guests on a gastronomic adventure filled with the flavours of the Mediterranean. Guided by the expertise of acclaimed Greek Chef Sotiris Evaggelou and Mar-Bella Collection’s Executive Chef Alexandros Kapsokavadis, along with the in-resort culinary team, Kuzina will present a varied gastronomic selection, spanning from breakfast buffet and brunch to a la carte lunch and dinner service. This all-day dining experience is designed to cater to every palate. Additionally, Chef Evaggelou will continue to work together with the group’s Executive Chef to elevate the culinary experience across the Collection’s three hotels.
About Mar-Bella Collection:
Mar-Bella Collection is a family-owned group of three five-star luxury hotels, all dotted around the Ionian Sea in Greece. Each Mar-Bella Collection hotel has been carefully curated to highlight the unique charm of each property while celebrating their individual identity; from the group’s first hotel, the iconic MarBella, which redefined luxury holidays in Corfu when it opened 50 years ago and today provides a premium all-inclusive offering for both couples and families, to the adults-only Nido, a Small
Luxury Hotel of the World, that opened in 2018 and offers a serene hideaway for couples. Elix, the newest hotel to join the collection in 2021 located on the Ionian coast of the West side of mainland Greece. It is the ideal destination for couples and families with grown up children seeking active outdoor adventures and was included in Conde Nast Traveller’s 2022 Hot List.
In 2023, all three hotels were awarded Condé Nast Traveller Reader’s Choice Awards, demonstrating their popularity amongst their new and returning guests. The 2023 World Travel Awards saw Elix win the award for ‘Europe’s Leading Beach Hotel 2023’, after being nominated for the same award in 2022, and for Europe’s Leading New Hotel in 2021. Additionally, MarBella won the award for ‘Greece’s Leading Family Resort’ for the second year running. All properties offer their guests a vast array of tailor-made activities and exclusive services, allowing them to explore the local areas and culture, as the brand continues to lead the way in luxury hospitality in Corfu and Parga.
