28 Editor-Recommended Greek Island Hotels

"An Asian-inspired stay in Corfu With sweeping views over the Ionian Bay, it’s easy to see why Banyan Tree Group chose a hill in Benitses in Corfu as the location of its first venture into Europe. The result is Angsana, a slick resort that combines Asian-inspired design with all the hallmarks of a luxurious Mediterranean stay—private beach, beach club, yoga deck, and a spa. A generously sized world class spa at that, home to a hammam, wellness pool, 11 treatment rooms, gym with new Technogym equipment, and a 82-foot-long indoor pool. Then there’s the outdoor pool and cabana set ups—quite possibly the most photogenic on the island. In the rooms, bathrooms are majestic with egg-shaped baths and floor-to-ceiling marble. Geometric orange kimonos with matching slippers enhance the overall Japanese aesthetic. When it’s time for supper, there are three options: Koh, which serves new twists on Asian classics, the upscale Italian-with-a-local-twist restaurant Botrini, and a rooftop bar that’s the place to be for a sundowner. Or whenever you want—the resort is open year round. —Jemima Sissons" - Becky Lucas
