This year, a 5-star all-inclusive resort in Greece has once again received the coveted “Oscar” of the tourism industry at the World Travel Awards. TRAVELBOOK reveals what makes the hotel so special and popular among guests.
Outstanding all-inclusive hotels are not only found in Spain or Turkey but also in Greece. At least that’s the view of the jurors of the World Travel Awards, who annually honor exceptional achievements in tourism. As in 2025, the award goes to Corfu this time as well. The Ikos Odisia there has been named the best all-inclusive resort in Europe.
What the Best All-Inclusive Resort in Europe Offers
The award-winning resort is located on the island in the far northwest of the country, partially off the coast of Albania. Corfu offers stunning beaches, idyllic bays, quiet villages, and lush green landscapes. And, of course, Europe’s best all-inclusive resort.

In the west of the island, in a secluded bay, Ikos Odisia welcomes its guests under the motto “Unconditional Luxury.” “On a 60-hectare area of enchanting green nature, restaurants with inviting terraces, elegant suites, and golden sandy beaches are spread out to offer an unparalleled view of the sparkling sea,” according to the resort’s website. Inclusive services include various pools, kids’ clubs, tennis courts, a spa area, and activities like water sports.

Tripadvisor Users Rave
On Tripadvisor, 95 percent of users have rated the hotel as “Excellent” or “Very Good.” One user, who spent his vacation at the resort last September, writes in his Tripadvisor review: “We’ve visited quite a few 5-star resorts, but Ikos Odisia surpassed them all. From the airport transfer to the hotel, the check-in, the room (we had a deluxe suite with a bedroom and a balcony), the resort, the various pools and bars–it was simply phenomenal.”
World Travel Awards
The World Travel Awards have been presented annually since 1993 on an international level in various categories, including hotels, airlines, travel agencies, and car rental companies. According to the website, the jury consists of “qualified executives working in the travel market.” They select the winners from the nominees in each category, which emerge from the votes of thousands of professionals in the tourism industry worldwide.
