❌ 3 cons to be aware of

Lots of Steps Due to Terraced Layout

The beautiful location means there are levels and stairs throughout the property. It is not recommended for guests with reduced mobility.

Pebble Beach & Sunbeds at a Charge

Sunbeds and parasols on the beach usually cost extra; beach shoes are a good idea. By the pool, sunbeds are complimentary.

Quite far from Corfu Town

It takes about 40–55 minutes to reach the centre/airport. A hire car is useful for day trips; public transport is available but less frequent in this part of the island.

Overview & Hotel Highlights

San Antonio Corfu Resort is a stylish adults-only haven perched high above the emerald waters of Kalami Bay, on the north coast of Corfu. Terraced along olive-clad slopes, the resort offers enchanting views over the Ionian Sea, two sprawling outdoor pools (including a stunning infinity pool), and direct access to a peaceful pebble beach below. In 2025, guests can expect superb cleanliness, attentive and welcoming service, and long, lazy breakfasts featuring the best seasonal flavours—served in two charming restaurants, with a lounge and beach bar setting the tone.

Cleanliness & Condition

Your first impression is likely to be sparkling: public spaces, pool areas, and rooms feel freshly renovated and meticulously cared for. Housekeeping is reliable and daily, with towel and linen changes on request. Bathrooms feature modern fixtures, excellent water pressure, and smart lighting. Outdoors, the resort is equally well-maintained, with tidy paths and terraces and thoughtfully pruned greenery. If hygiene is a priority, you’ll feel very much at ease here.

Value for Money

If you’re seeking an elegant, four-star, adults-only hotel with sea views, San Antonio delivers a comprehensive package. Breakfast is included for most guests and is a highlight, featuring local ingredients. Lunch and dinner are à la carte—so you pay only for what you fancy. Complimentary Wi-Fi and parking (limited spaces), 24/7 reception with concierge, and all the essentials in your room (air conditioning, safe, minibar, kettle & coffee set, smart TV) provide extra comfort. Optional extras like beach daybeds, watersports, or spa treatments are available for clear, upfront fees—no hidden surprises.

Beach & Pool

The setting is hard to beat: beautiful Kalami Beach is right below, with calm, clear water perfect for swimming and snorkelling. Sun loungers and parasols on the beach usually incur a charge, but at the pool, loungers and towels are complimentary. The upper infinity pool feels as if it floats above the bay—a wonderful spot for sunbathing with panoramic views. A second, more sheltered pool is located by the lower restaurant area. Please note: the terraced setting means steep steps and inclines, so the resort is not suitable for guests with limited mobility.

Dining & Breakfast

The heart of the culinary experience is Dyo Elies, where a generous breakfast buffet is served until 11 am, with Greek specialities, fresh fruit, pastries, and plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free options. Lunch and dinner offer Mediterranean and Greek-inspired dishes with seasonal local flair, while the beachside Callao restaurant serves lighter lunches, fresh seafood, or pasta right by the water—and turns into a magical spot for dinner in the evening. The Bliss bar is perfect for sunset drinks or local wines with a blue horizon backdrop.

Rooms & Adults-Only Vibe

All rooms and suites face the sea, decorated in calm tones and natural materials with smart details. Options range from comfortable doubles to suites with expansive terraces and private outdoor jacuzzis. The adults-only concept (minimum age 15) guarantees a tranquil atmosphere—perfect for couples, friends, or solo travellers seeking relaxation. There’s a state-of-the-art gym, private yoga sessions on request, and watersports in the bay. Wellness treatments can be booked via reception.

San Antonio Corfu Resort is ideal for design-loving couples and peace-seeking adults who value sea views, impeccable cleanliness, quality breakfasts, and memorable dining experiences—and don’t mind climbing a few steps to reach the beautiful coastline.

Location & Ionian Sea Views

Kalami Beach – Just 20 metres from crystal-clear waters

The resort is set amphitheatrically above emerald Kalami Bay. Below, a spotless pebble beach with dazzlingly clear water awaits—perfect for swimming and snorkelling. While sunbeds and parasols on the beach are usually available at a charge, they’re included at the pool area. Thanks to the terraced design, winding paths and steps connect the beach to the restaurants and accommodation—with the bonus that nearly everywhere you go, you’ll enjoy uninterrupted sea views.

The drive from Corfu Airport (CFU) takes approximately 40–55 minutes depending on traffic. A stop for the Green Bus is located on the main road above the resort; taxis and private transfers can easily be arranged via reception. Outdoor parking is complimentary, but spaces are limited.

Nearby you’ll find other beautiful coves such as Agni and Kerasia, as well as the charming village of Kassiopi (around 6 km), known for its harbour, tavernas, and boat trips along the coast. Directly across the bay is the legendary ‘White House’—the famous villa of the Durrell family and a must-see photo stop for your village stroll.

Cuisine & Dining

Buffet Restaurant & Greek-Mediterranean Highlights

Your day starts at Dyo Elies with a generous breakfast buffet of authentic Greek favourites, fresh fruit, home-baked bread, and sweet treats—breakfast is served until 11am! For lunch and dinner, you can enjoy modern interpretations of Mediterranean and Corfiot classics, always featuring seasonal and local ingredients. By the water, Callao (beach restaurant & bar) tempts with light dishes, grilled fish and meat, creative desserts, and all-day lunch—by evening, it transforms into an atmospheric dining spot by the sea.

Bars

The Bliss lounge and pool bar by the infinity pool is the top spot for a sundowner with magnificent views—try their signature cocktails, regional wines and craft beers, or a light bowl or snack. The bar in Dyo Elies serves speciality coffees by day and a selection of delicious aperitifs and cocktails in the evening. Note: there’s no classic all-inclusive option here—most guests book with breakfast included, lunch and dinner are à la carte, and there may be special evening menus depending on the season.

Pools, Spa & Wellness

Infinity Pool with Sea Views

The two inviting freshwater pools are the heart of the resort. The upper infinity pool appears to float above the bay—perfect for lazy days on a lounger with breathtaking views. The second pool, near the lower restaurant area, is more sheltered from the wind. Pool towels are provided; on the beach, sunbeds and parasols are available at a charge. The sea is at your feet: calm, crystal-clear, and ideal for both swimming and snorkelling.

Spa & Fitness

Work out in the compact but modern gym (equipment includes Matrix), regardless of the weather. Private yoga sessions and tailored massage treatments can be easily arranged—the ambience is always serene. If you prefer to be active in the water, there’s a choice of watersports in the bay, including kayaking, SUP, waterskiing, or hiring a boat to explore the coastline.

Service & Staff

Greek Hospitality Made Easy

The team here offers warm and attentive service throughout your stay—from your arrival to the helpful pool and restaurant hosts and the experienced housekeeping crew. Many staff members have worked here for years, which really shows in their professionalism, harmony, and attention to detail.

Reception & Concierge (Languages)

The reception is staffed 24/7, and the concierge can help with everything from restaurant and boat reservations to transfers, car hire, and activity planning. English and Greek are spoken—other languages may also be available depending on the team. Check-in from 15:00, check-out by 11:00.

Sustainability & Responsibility

The resort takes sustainability seriously: recycling of paper, plastic, glass, and batteries; almost exclusively LED lighting; minimal single-use plastics; eco-friendly cleaning products; and primarily local ingredients in the kitchen. Guests are encouraged to participate in these initiatives—without any compromise on comfort.

As a travel enthusiast, I’m truly impressed by how San Antonio combines sea views, tranquillity, and culinary quality with no compromise. My top tip: enjoy your first coffee of the day at Bliss by the infinity pool, have dinner at Callao with the sound of waves in the background, and fit in a boat trip along the coast in between. This is exactly how Corfu should be experienced—as an adult!
