La propiedad — Jaws
Jaws is a straight-talking 3-star on Corfu's eastern coast, a short walk from Ipsos beach. The lobby smells of suncream and pine, with a small bar and a pool that does the job. It's built for budget-conscious families and groups who want solid rooms, breakfast included, and easy access to the coastal bus to Corfu Town. No frills, but honest value.
Crónicas de Corfu
Corfu Town has been a fortress for 2,500 years, founded by Corinthians and later ruled by Venetians, French, and British, each leaving their mark. The narrow alleys of the Old Town are a UNESCO World Heritage site, dominated by the Old Fortress and the Liston arcade. Venetian influence is clearest in the buildings' pale stone and the absence of cars in the historic core. Today the city thrives on tourism and olive-oil exports, with a lively café culture around Spinanda Square.

Principales atracciones en 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.
