You might be free to visit today, but New Fortress wasn't always so welcoming! Discover the story behind this mighty stronghold and exactly what it was designed to defend.

New Fortress is a great place to begin exploring Old Town Corfu. This history-filled fortress is recommended by fellow travelers, but it's not the only spot to see here. Allow some time for other sights like Dassia Beach, Aqualand, and Pelekas Beach to make the most of what's on offer in the area.

8.6/10 Excellent! (26 reviews)

Excellent hotel. Family friendly, great staff, good food. Beach and pools amazing although none of them heated so can be cold (we were there end of season) didn’t stop us though! Limited entertainment but nice vibe in the piazza area in the evenings.
