The Olivar Suites

You’ll find the newly-built 5-star Olivar Suites Hotel in the village of Messonghi, close to the mid-point of Corfu’s beautiful east coast, about 20km south of Corfu Town.

The centerpiece of this luxury beachfront boutique hotel is an 18^th century olive mill. The newer buildings surrounding the mill cleverly mimic its native stone and stucco architecture, and as many olive trees as possible from the surrounding orchard were preserved during construction and now decorate the grounds of the hotel.

This respect for the original environment of the building site is reflected in the placement of the suites which is similar to the layout of a Corfiot village, with complete privacy of each suite a priority, and the olive tree being used as a motif throughout the complex. The hotel is no higher than two floors, making all rooms highly accessible.

Rooms

120 suites are available, each of them tailor-made for privacy, access to your pool, and a relaxing, natural environment among the olive trees. All of the suites have an indoor-outdoor configuration, offering either a private pool with a garden or sun deck.
