As in all Greek islands, the main accommodations for vacations are studios, which are small apartments (often one-bedroom or two-bedroom) equipped with a kitchenette, bedroom, and bathroom. These are usually family-run and often reasonably priced. The managers of the studios are generally very helpful and friendly, as are the residents, and they provide affordable accommodation that is suitable for the typical needs of a vacation on a Greek island.
The island of Corfu is very touristy; you can find all kinds of accommodation in hotel s, resorts, and campsites, for example in Dassia, Ipsos, Paleokastritsa, and Roda.
Since the island is quite large, it is advisable to choose the place to stay carefully to avoid constantly moving in search of your preferred spot. There are areas with sandy beaches and calm, warm seas, others suitable for sports that require wind, some more lively, others more suitable for nature and relaxation lovers or families with small children. Below are the areas with the most accommodation options along with some useful characteristics for choosing. Since all of them offer a good number of sleeping solutions, the list follows a clockwise order along the island's perimeter starting from the capital. The most significant ones are: Corfu Town, Benitses, Lefkimmi, Kavos, Aghios Gordis, Glifada, Paleokastritsa, Sidari, Roda, Acharavi, Kassiopi, Kalami, Barbati, Ipsos, Dassia, and Gouvia
Corfù Town
It is the capital of the island and a true city that develops around a large square: the beautiful Spianada. It offers many accommodation options and is ideal for those who love, on vacation, to admire the various architectural styles of the place, wander through small shops and characteristic alleys, frequent typical bars and restaurants, and enjoy lively and festive evenings. Being centrally located, it is also a convenient place to reach the various beautiful beaches of the island.

It is the second largest city on the island. Ideal if you enjoy staying in close contact with the local population in a tranquil atmosphere.
SEARCH FOR HOTELS AND STUDIOS IN LEFKIMMI >Kavos
Kavos, somewhat isolated in the south of Corfu, is chosen every year not so much for its sea, which is still beautiful with a long sandy beach, but for the entertainment it offers. A multitude of young Anglo-Saxons flock there every summer to have fun, drink, and make new friends in an environment tailored to them, which hardly resembles the Greek atmosphere.

It is a small locality but with a beautiful beach and particularly clear sea, perfect for snorkeling. Nearby, there are other lovely beaches, and its central location is ideal for exploring the island. Being on the west side, it is also perfect for admiring the sunsets.

The Glifada area is the ideal place for those who love swimming (although the road to reach the famous beach is not the best). The fine sandy shore is beautiful and well-equipped, and the shallow sea is perfect for children. This place is particularly popular with young people due to the presence of several lively bars.

Paleokastritsa
Despite being an upscale and sought-after area, the accommodation options cater to all budgets. The place is very popular because it is situated in a truly fascinating natural setting. The beautiful beach with an equally incredible sea is the most famous attraction of the island. It is a perfect place for those who love the sea, sports, and the natural environment, a bit less so for those looking for lively nightlife.
SEARCH FOR HOTELS AND STUDIOS IN PALEOKASTRITSA >Sidari
A very beautiful and characteristic village situated on a hill. The area is highly appreciated for its lovely beaches with shallow waters and especially for the presence of the famous "Canal d'Amour," located among strikingly colored rocks smoothed by the wind. Sidari is chosen as a vacation destination in Corfu by both young people, due to its lively atmosphere, and those who love unconventional natural environments.
SEARCH FOR HOTELS AND STUDIOS IN SIDARI >Roda
The island of Corfu is primarily a destination for young people from all over the world, but this does not preclude families with children from finding suitable solutions, perhaps without the excessive youthful animation. Roda, with its shallow sea, beautiful sandy beach, and many available services, can be an excellent choice.
