Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world's largest hotel franchise company, has signed a franchise agreement with Mercan Greece for the operation of Wyndham Corfu Acharavi, a 4-star beachfront hotel in Corfu.

According to a recent announcement, this collaboration marks the entry of Mercan Group into the Greek hospitality sector, strengthening Wyndham’s commitment to expanding in the Mediterranean.

The property, currently operating as the Corfu Acharavi Hotel, will undergo a significant renovation and upgrade as part of its repositioning in the market, aligning with Wyndham’s quality and service standards.

Located on the northern coast of Corfu, the hotel boasts an idyllic setting by the sea, along a 7-kilometer sandy beach with views of the turquoise Ionian Sea. This prime location makes it an ideal destination for leisure travelers and families.

Mercan's investment in Corfu is a key step in the group’s European growth strategy, reflecting its commitment to sustainable development, innovation, and top-tier hospitality. With ongoing expansion across Europe, the company’s entry into Greece highlights the country’s appeal as a leading tourist and investment destination.

Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, with over 9,300 hotels in 95 countries, continues to strengthen its presence in the Mediterranean, including in Greece’s most popular destinations.

Theodoros Kioutsoukis, President of Mercan Greece, stated: “Corfu holds a special place in the hearts of travelers worldwide. With this agreement, we’re not just investing in a destination of unique natural beauty and cultural heritage, but also reinforcing our commitment to providing superior hospitality experiences in Greece. Our partnership with Wyndham Hotels & Resorts ensures that Wyndham Corfu Acharavi will offer the highest standards of service and international recognition, while maintaining the charm and authenticity of the island.”

Vasilis Themelidis, Regional Director for Southern and Eastern Europe at Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, added: “Our collaboration with Mercan Properties for the launch of Wyndham Corfu Acharavi reflects our strategy to expand into key Mediterranean destinations and strengthen our presence in high-demand leisure markets. As we continue to diversify our portfolio through strategic partnerships and conversions, Greece remains a cornerstone of our regional growth strategy. This new opening not only boosts our footprint in the country but also underscores our commitment to providing quality hospitality experiences to both Greek and international visitors.”
