The Property — Bozikis Apartments
Bozikis Apartments sits on the quieter east-coast road a few kilometres north of Corfu Town, a low-rise white complex with balconies that face the Ionian Sea or the garden. It’s a practical 3-star chosen for its direct beach access and a decent pool, not for design flourishes: think tiled floors, basic kitchenettes and a reception desk that doubles as a mini-market. The vibe is self-catering calm, suits families or couples who want a simple base for beach days and day trips, and doesn’t pretend to be anything more.
Chronicles of Corfu
Corfu Town was founded in the 8th century BC as a Corinthian colony and has since passed through Byzantine, Venetian, French and British hands. Its architecture is dominated by the elegant, arcaded streets of the Venetian-era Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2007. The four centuries of Venetian rule left a clear mark: tall shuttered buildings, narrow *kantounia* (alleyways) and a fortress that still guards the harbour. Today, the city’s identity fuses a Mediterranean island rhythm with a sophisticated, cafe-and-music culture, best seen in the Liston arcade where locals promenade in the evenings.
Best Time to Visit
Full Corfu guide →Best months
May, June and September: mid-20s °C, mostly sunny, sea warm enough for swimming, and the main tourist rush hasn’t peaked or has already thinned.
Peak / festival surge
July and August are the hottest (often 33°C+) and busiest months, with charter flights full and hotel occupancy near 100%. Prices at Bozikis can rise 30-40% above June rates. The Corfu International Festival in July and August brings classical concerts to the Old Fortress, but the real driver is simply peak summer European holiday season.
Budget shoulder season
Late April to early June, and all of September into early October. These months still offer good weather (20-28°C) but hotel rates drop 15-30%. Crowds are noticeably lighter, especially after the August exodus.
Weather & packing
Corfu has a microclimate that can bring short, sharp thunderstorms even in mid-summer, usually in the late afternoon. Pack a light rain jacket or a foldable umbrella, and definitely bring reef-safe sunscreen and a high-SPF lip balm.
Live City Briefing — Corfu
- The Corfu Town waterfront refurbishment along the Old Harbour promenade is now complete, with a new pedestrian plaza and better sea-facing benches. This means less traffic along the north side of the Spianada square in summer evenings.
- The Green Bus lines between Corfu Town and northern resorts (including the route past Bozikis, line 7 to Dassia) have introduced contactless card payment on board as of May 2026 – no need for the old paper tickets, but keep small change as backup.
- Due to ongoing summer water shortages in the central island, several hotels – including Bozikis – have requested that guests limit shower times and not run taps unnecessarily. Expect discreet notices on this in the bathroom.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Bozikis Apartments, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first or second floor (if stairs are okay) facing the internal courtyard or rear side. These are quieter and likely have some tree cover. Upper floors (third floor, no lift) mean carrying bags but offer better light and less foot traffic noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street. Corfu's main road can have scooter and traffic noise into the evening, especially in summer. Also avoid rooms near the stairwell if the hotel has no lift – you'll hear people coming and going.
Best views
Given the address is simply 'Corfu', the best view is likely from an upper floor facing away from the main road – possibly a partial sea view or hillside greenery. Ground floor rooms have no real view.
Quietest floors
First and second floors (rooms not directly on street level) are generally quietest. Third floor is quiet but requires stairs.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel's location on a Corfu road (probably a main or secondary route) means scooter and car traffic during the day and early evening. Bars and restaurants nearby can add noise until midnight in high season.
Insider tips
1) If you arrive by car, ask about free on-street parking – there's no private lot at many 3-star hotels here. 2) Request a room on the first floor if you have heavy luggage – there's no lift, and the stairs are narrow.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Euro, EUR
Use ATMs inside Greek banks for the best rates; avoid airport exchange bureaux and tourist-area kiosks that charge high commissions and poor rates.
Visa and Mastercard are widely accepted in hotels, restaurants, and larger shops; contactless works in most places, but carry cash for small tavernas, market stalls, and taxis.
Leave 5-10% at restaurants if service is not included, round up taxi fares, and tip hotel porters and cleaners a few euros.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A Greek frappé or freddo espresso from a local kafenio costs about €2–3.
A gyros pita (pork or chicken) from a street souvlaki shop costs around €3–4.
A main dish at a traditional taverna, like moussaka or grilled fish, typically runs €8–12.
The Old Town’s alleyways near the Liston area and the port are packed with souvlaki and pie shops; also try the market area by Mitropoleos Street.
Supermarkets such as Lidl, AB Vassilopoulos, and Masoutis are common across Corfu for everyday groceries.
Budget clothes shopping is limited; try the H&M or Zara in the city centre, or head to the Saturday street market at the New Fortress for cheaper items.
The cheapest way around town is walking; for longer trips use the local bus network (€1.20 single within town, or a day pass around €3). From the airport take the blue bus line 15 to the town centre for €1.20.
Eat lunch at a bakery or souvlaki shop rather than sit-down restaurants. Buy water and snacks at supermarkets not tourist kiosks. Use the local bus instead of taxis for short hops.

Top Attractions in Corfu
💡 If you're visiting on a Sunday morning, you'll see a cricket match—Corfu is the only place in Greece where the sport is played regularly. Buy a cheese pie from a nearby bakery and sit by the Maitland Rotunda.
💡 Go just before 5pm if you want to hear the local women crowd in for the evening litany. Dress modestly—shoulders and knees covered. The reliquary can be kissed after the service if you follow the queue.
💡 Skip the cable car tourist train and walk from the end of the bus line (green bus from San Rocco Square, 1.50 euros). For a swim, take the little boat from the pier below the monastery to Vido Island—free if you swim across from the mainland (200m).
💡 Bring water and wear sturdy shoes—there are many steep steps and no shade. Entry costs 6 euros (2024), but the permanent archaeological exhibition inside is included.
💡 Entry is 4 euros, but free on the first Sunday of each month (November to March). The museum is small—you can do it properly in 45 minutes. Combine it with a walk through the nearby Anemomylos neighborhood for a coffee stop.
