To know

The hotel is situated on the cove of the Cala Egos, only 2 miles from the busy summer resort downtown of Cala d'Or, on the east coast of the island, 40 miles from the airport of Palma. One hour driving to get to the hotel.
The 163 rooms of the Marina Skorpios are pretty spacious (about 215 feet²) and all of them have a view of the sea and especially of the Marina Corfu. Basic and clean, everything was renovated in 2003. Single, double and family rooms are all equipped with satellite TV, direct international telephone line, air-conditioning, a bathroom with bathtub and a balcony with plastic seats and a laundry line. The decoration is pretty basic, nothing excessive - yellow shades and bright tiling and furniture in dark wood.
Built in 1972, the Marina Skorpios is a 3-star hotel on 5 levels overlooking the rocky inlet of Cala Egos. The lobby and the reception are well-appointed and pretty bright. To the side, a beautiful patio is fitted out with long sofas and low rattan tables, very pleasant for sun-bathing. On the lower level, there is a buffet-restaurant, a bar and games for children. On the heights of the Marina Corfu and benefiting to the clients from the Marina Skorpios, you will find a playground with multi-sports field, a petanque zone and another one for shooting. On a lower level, behind the beach, there is a large pool with a stage for shows, most of the games are organised there.
The huge restaurant where the buffet is located is lit by large bay windows wh?ch overlook the beach. There is a choice of: a dozen of entrées, dishes, fishes, meats and pastas. A lower buffet is reserved for kids; they are offered everything they love: sausage, puree, fried foods and even pizza. The cuisine is mainly international, of very good quality. Too bad, the tables are too close to one another despite the size of the hall.
In an great setting, clear water and fine sand, the hotel beach is a public rocky inlet, very popular especially during summer. There are very few if no beach chairs and watersports are not practicable here. Diving, waterski or surfing lovers should go to the Cala d'Or beach, 3 miles away.
The hotel is located in front of the Marina Corfu of the same hotelier chain and shares lots of facilities and activities. The animation team is the same for both hotels.

Lodging advice:

In the 5 floor white building, the nicest rooms are those on the upper floors. You should ask for one when you book your stay if you want to get it.
