🏨 Where to Stay
- Cavomarina Beach — Adults Only ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — a recently renovated beachfront hotel with an infinity pool and swim-up rooms, close enough to the Kavos strip for a night out but positioned as a genuine retreat by day.
- Capo Di Corfu ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — smart pick, family — a large, well-maintained all-inclusive resort on the coast a few kilometres outside central Kavos, with landscaped gardens, multiple pools and a quieter setting than the town centre.
- Ekati Mare Lifestyle Resort ⭐⭐⭐⭐ — hidden gem, couples — a boho-chic boutique resort at the quiet edge of Kavos village, with a private beach club, stylish rooms and a genuine couples-first feel — all the energy of Kavos on your own terms.
- Mediterranean Blue ⭐⭐⭐ — attainable pick, family — a warm, family-run hotel near Kavos Beach with two pools, private beach access and a well-loved weekly Greek night — genuinely good value close to the action.
- Olympion Village ⭐⭐⭐ — a hillside hotel deliberately set back from the Kavos strip, a five-to-ten-minute walk from the beach and bars, with a pool and gardens for those who want proximity to the fun without the noise.
✈️ Flights
- Flights to Corfu (CFU) — direct seasonal flights from Manchester in summer; Kavos is roughly an hour's drive from the airport at the island's southern tip.
🎟️ Experiences
- Arkoudilas Beach — an undeveloped 2km stretch of golden sand backed by dramatic clay cliffs at Corfu's southern tip, reached by dirt track or a coastal hike, and regularly cited as one of the island's most beautiful beaches.
- Monastery of the Blessed Virgin Mary — atmospheric 18th-century monastery ruins on the clifftop above Arkoudilas, with sweeping views across to Paxos; best combined with the beach walk below.
