Ella Resorts is expanding its presence in the Greek hospitality market with the upcoming launch of Ella Elýra, a new five-star, adults-only lifestyle beach resort scheduled to open in summer 2027 on the western coast of Corfu. Located at Kontogialos Beach in Pelekas, the property will feature 171 rooms, suites and villas, introducing a new luxury accommodation concept to the Ionian island.
The resort will offer a beachfront setting overlooking the Ionian Sea, with accommodation designed around contemporary aesthetics, natural materials and panoramic sea views. Its room categories will include Comfort, Deluxe and Premium Rooms, Open Plan Suites, One-Bedroom Sea View Suites and the signature Elyra Suite. Selected accommodation options will also feature private pools, swim-up access or outdoor relaxation areas.
Gastronomy will play a central role in the guest experience, with four restaurants and four bars offering Greek, Mediterranean and international cuisine. The culinary programme will include buffet and à la carte dining, with menus curated by Michelin-starred chefs, alongside signature cocktails, selected wines and premium beverage options. The resort will operate under Ella Resorts’ Ellavated Bliss all-inclusive concept.
Wellness facilities will also form an important part of the offering. The Roée Wellness & Spa will provide a range of treatments and relaxation experiences, including a couples’ suite featuring a steam room and sauna. Additional facilities will include a gym, fitness sessions and curated activities inspired by Corfu’s local culture and natural surroundings.
The opening of Ella Elýra further strengthens Ella Resorts’ portfolio in Greece, adding another upscale property to its existing collection of resorts in Rhodes, Corfu and Crete. With its adults-only concept, beachfront location and emphasis on gastronomy and wellness, the new resort is set to contribute to Corfu’s luxury hospitality offering ahead of the 2027 summer season.
