Laid-Back Luxury on the Ionian Shore: Stories from 1962 by the Sea

Along the shimmering coast of Corfu, where the Ionian Sea stretches into infinity, a culinary haven awaits: 1962 by the Sea at Domes Miramare.

Step into a space steeped in history. Built as a trophy asset by the Onassis family in the late 1960s, Miramare quickly became a meeting point for jet setters, welcoming luminaries such as President Eisenhower and Maria Callas. Today, it continues to charm the modern glitterati, offering a refined yet relaxed sanctuary where the legacy of elegance meets contemporary pleasures. Relive the excitement of a carefree, exuberant time and discover the inspiration that once drew celebrities to these magnificent grounds.

Start your day following winding seaside paths to a sunlit patio, where a rich, healthy buffet breakfast introduces the flavors of the island. Fresh, local, and organic ingredients come together to celebrate wholesome indulgence, preparing you for a day in serene, sun-drenched Corfu. As the day matures, the experience evolves: a creative, seasonally driven à la carte Mediterranean menu offers a modern interpretation of Greek and Corfiot classics. Each dish is crafted with care, balancing Venetian elegance with the warmth and generosity of Greek hospitality.

Evenings at 1962 by the Sea are a sensory journey. Imagine the gentle sea breeze accompanying a refined buffet experience, complemented by one or two à la carte options, occasionally even three, that elevate island dining to a form of art. Here, tradition and innovation intertwine seamlessly, and every plate tells a story: the heritage of Corfu, the abundance of the Ionian, and the timeless pleasure of shared moments by the shore.

Whether you are tracing the culinary footprints of Corfu, savoring the subtleties of Mediterranean flavors, or simply letting the sun set over turquoise waters, 1962 by the Sea promises a dining experience that is both relaxed and unforgettable. Experience the art of Corfiot hospitality in its purest form. Visit Domes Miramare and let 1962 by the Sea transform your day into a story worth savoring.
