After spending three weeks exploring the bustling streets of Istanbul and the sun-drenched landscapes of Crete, we traveled to Corfu for our final week in paradise. How will we ever leave and go back to reality?
Location and Arrival
Domes Miramare is an adults-only luxury resort located on the eastern coast of Corfu, near the village of Moraitika. It’s about a 30-minute drive from Corfu International Airport. If you’re driving at night, be aware that the road is dark and winding, so exercise caution.
Resort Layout
The resort is divided into two main sections:
- Beachfront Section: Situated directly on the waterfront of the Ionian Sea, this area houses guest accommodations, restaurants, bars, and a pool.
- Inland Section: Located across the road, this part features garden rooms, a gym, and another pool.
Our Accommodation
Our Emerald Retreat King room was in the beachfront section, offering a serene and comfortable stay. The room was well-appointed, with a king-size bed, a walk-in shower, a small terrace, an espresso machine, and a well-stocked minibar. Located a couple of buildings away from the main lobby, it was quiet and tranquil.
Relaxation and Amenities
The nice thing about this property is that if you want to spend a day lounging in the sun, you not only have the two pool options, but also the waterfront loungers. We loved the pool on the inland side of the property. It was beautiful with loungers located in the pool, as well as cabanas for use at no charge. This area is gorgeous, though service was minimal.
Dining Experience
The resort offers a complimentary breakfast with a large spread that includes breads, cold cuts, juices, bacon, and made-to-order items like waffles or omelets. For dinners, we opted to explore the local cuisine, with several excellent restaurants within walking distance. We especially loved The Village Taverna, a family-owned Greek restaurant with charming outdoor seating, delicious food, and friendly service.
Bittersweet Farewell
Our stay at Domes Miramare, with its Mediterranean charm, provided a relaxing and memorable conclusion to our wonderful trip to Greece.
