Aquis Adds New Hot Spots To Kerkyra
T
he demanding visitor is not interested exclusively in sun and sea but also expects top service and facilities and that is exactly what the
Aquis all-inclusive package offers, "unique facilities," said Andreas Antoniou, the hotel chain's
director of operations, at the recent grand opening of the Agios Gordios Beach Hotel on Kerkyra.
The Agios Gordios Beach Hotel is located
southwest of the island and 15 kilometers from
Kerkyra town.
Following a large renovation project, the hotel
now offers all inclusive services exclusively to
adult visitors ranking it the sole "Adults Only
Hotel" throughout the Ionian and one of the few
across Greece.
"The fact that the hotel only welcomes adults
and offers a wide range of services and many new
mainstream additions has received a very positive
response from tourists," said Mr. Antoniou.
He also announced the operation of Aquis's
other three hotels on Kerkyra: Aquis Sandy Beach
Resort, Aquis Pelekas Beach Hotel and Aquis Corfu
Holiday Palace Hotel (franchise).
The Aquis Agios Gordios Beach Hotel and Aquis
Pelekas Beach Hotel have been fully revamped
internally and externally while renovations are
underway for the Aquis Corfu Holiday Palace Hotel
and the Aquis Sandy Beach Resort.
