4 Star Corfu Holidays

Alan Holmes

Wonderful hotel in a beautiful setting. Just returned from a few nights stay in a fabulous bungalow. The bungalows are cleverly built into the steep bank down to a bay with a tree lined sandy beach. The view from our spacious balcony was breathtaking. The staff are so helpful and cheerful. A credit to the hotel. The food is excellent. Downside, the hotel is very family friendly. We caught half-term. I don't mind during the day but an adult only bar, say after 9pm would have been welcome. There nothing around the hotel. It's 15 euros into Guovia but there's not a lot there. So really it wasn't easy to escape the kindergarten. The hotel provides a twice daily shuttle into Corfu Town. Great holiday all the same, brilliant accomodation and fabulous food. Thank you Grecotel LUXME.

This is our second visit to Daphnila Bay and it didn't disappoint again! The facilities and all-inclusive offerings are hard to beat! The quality of food and drink is our favorite element. You basically can't pay for anything in the hotel (just wine cellar bottles and room service not included). All 7 food and drink outlets are equally high standard. Top tip is you can visit the facilities of the next door hotels on a free boat (these are even more exclusive and the Imperal has a heated pool) Second top tip is you should ask for the wine list at dinner where you can choose from high quality bottles of wine included in your stay. Only recommendations to the hotel are to add a kids play park/water play areas (this would have helped keep our under 5 kids busy). Also greatly increase the capacity of hotel bus trips to Corfu town as we had to pay €90 on taxis for our morning trip into Corfu town. A highlight if our stay was my wife's birthday. The kitchen made a complimentary gluten free birthday cake and specially prepared lots of gluten free options including pizza, pasta, pancakes and burgers! (This is a golden find for Gluten free people) Well done Daphnila Bay. We will be back to this resort I am sure!

What a lovely hotel! I really can’t recommend it enough, the location is stunning and well connected to corfu town. You can take the local bus or definitely recommend the hotel shuttle boat. The staff are all extremely helpful and accommodating. A shout out to Alexandra, Sara & Dimitri. Alexandra made our short trip a great stay, always happy to greet us and helped us secure as many trips and reservations; just being a friendly face. Sara and Dimitri were very attentive and offered a lot of advice when it came to ordering drinks. I’m not normally a fan of the all inclusive as I feel like the drinks and food lack, not here. Even the buffet food was tasty offering lots of lovely salads! My only “complaints” would be no butter just margarine and the bathrooms in the room could do with a revamp. I would say to pretty minor things! Thank you all for a lovely stay! Can’t wait to come back.

rooms are more basic than in photo. no slip mats for the shower. meals leave a lot to be desired, very little for vegetarians or children, but as rep said, there is salad and chips. the hotel is beautiful but nothing within a walking distance, great if you want to stay in your hotel all your holiday. paid extra for a room with a sea and pool view, which it did have but usually a room with a pool view would get the sun, this didnt only for 1 hour in the early morning, so if you want a room with the sun on the balcony you need a room on the other side to the pool which is quiet noisy, and save yourself the extra money as you get a view from the lobby or outside seating.

We recently returned from a stay here and we really enjoyed it. The staff were always friendly and helpful to us and we observed the same thing with other guests. Our room was spacious and despite what some other reviews suggested it was very comfortable. It was kept clean and tidy by staff regularly. This was also the case with the shared guest areas of the hotel. The buffet restaurant always had a good selection of food options in the mornings for breakfast and dinner. As many other people have mentioned, if you’re interested in eating at one of the a la carte restaurants then it’s best to get booked in advance of your stay. We found the hotel app didn’t work for us, however a few email exchanges with the reception prior to our arrival got us sorted out. At lunch time we tended to visit the beach buffet where you could get a good selection of pizza, fresh salad etc all while admiring the sea view. I also have to thank the staff who provided a birthday cake for my husband, who celebrated his birthday during the stay - a nice gesture.

Wow, we had an absolutely brilliant time. I don't usually leave reviews, but this hotel is incredible and highly recommended. The customer service was excellent from the moment we arrived, all the staff are so friendly and helpful, from reception team, bar staff, restaurant staff and even the lifeguards! The facilities are really modern and well maintained, way better than we were expecting. A really special thanks goes to the Animation entertainment team, especially Ari, Raquel, Meryl and Duarte, who got us involved in so many fun activities for both adults and kids - they brought the whole experience to life! There's even a kids club so you get to enjoy a bit of down time from parenting. We started on half-board, but upgraded to all-inclusive to enjoy the open bar and bottomless snacks, but either way it is great value. There's a really big selection of food for each meal that changes daily and caters for everyone. As a vegan the protein options were limited (normal), but there was so much to enjoy that I ate like a king every day! The local town has lots of eateries and bars for those on half board, although it was a bit of a walk/short drive to get to the nearest decent swimming beach. We didn't feel compelled to leave the hotel much, it had everything we wanted from a holiday. If you do go half-board, you can swap either your breakfast or dinner for lunch so you can go out on excursions - lots of boat trips leave from the town, with fantastic reviews from people who went on them. Nice one.

Miroslav Vybiral

One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at! The service was excellent, the food absolutely delicious, the room modern and comfortable, and the hotel staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Docent Procent

Very nice hotel to spend holidays, service on the highest level, drinks and food very tasty, rooms could be better but they’re fine (if u dont want to spend your holidays in to hotel room).

Ranio

Good location, Messonghi is very recommended for families with small children, very calm and quiet, hotel super close to a relaxing reserved beach (sunbeds and umbrellas to hire for 6euros all day, very convenient!) And many daily excursions are available. Friendly and great staff, nice facilities, overall an excellent place to relax! All inclusive is a real all inclusive, without excessive costly extras. Highly recommended, your kids will love it! (And you too)

Christina Firth

Unfortunately I can't rate this place any higher. Don't get wrong the place is nice it's self. But also nothing to do outside the resort. Food was nice but the plates had a bad smell of sulphur. They are not washed properly. Really overwhelming smell of it. The dishwasher water needs changing more regularly. So that really put a downer on the experience of enjoying the food. Staff are lovely and very helpful. Also unfortunately out side our room smelt of feces all day long. The smell came in the room the smell at high heat of the day. Door was also broken so there was a massive gap at the side and the bottom so the geckos used to run in and out 😂🙄. Baby pool had tiles missing on the bottom of the floor so sharp and dangerous. We did like the slides and the apart from the sharp missing tiles the baby pool was very cute. The whole place definitely needs a revamp for sure but we did enjoy it apart from them things pointed out. But we wouldn't return and it's definitely not 5* I would say 3 at the most.

We had such a nice time here! The resort was such a good value for money, though some small improvements could make the stay much better. Contrary to some reviews, the bedding was okay and even quite good. The room was clean and we'll maintained. Dinner is now served at the hotel restaurant and not at the restaurant near the beach. Greek food is very good, but international food is okay-ish. In the morning there's no fresh juices and instead two weird tasting "juices", otherwise breakfast is good. The real star of the hotel is the staff. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. Reception give really good advice on where to go and what to do in Corfu. Cooks even leave the kitchen to explain their greek recipes! This gives the resort a really nice vibe. Overall a great place to stay that won't destroy your budget, with headroom to improve. Special thanks to Manto who made our trip so nice and special, we won't forget you!

Vladimir Pajic

If you want a friendly atmosphere, good hosts and good food, you can't go wrong here. My family spent a vacation in this hotel for 10 days and everything was perfect. The hotel is older, but everything else is much more important than that. The rooms are large and very, very clean. The breakfast is perfect, everything is of high quality, cheeses, eggs, fruits, juices, cakes,... The kitchen is open until 4:30 p.m., so you can order a delicious lunch in large portions at prices cheaper than a restaurant. The pool is very clean. Here you can get a drink served by the best bartender Janis. The most beautiful beaches are not far away, good restaurants and markets are near the hotel. Big greetings to the friendly staff of the hotel and the manager Boris who is always there to help you

Darryl Strong

Had a fantastic time here. Staff are very friendly, the room was spacious and clean. Food was excellent. We really enjoyed our walks to the beach for dinner enjoying the sunset. It was a perfect holiday. Can't wait to return.

Frederic L-M

Nice resort, a bit further down the center and the beach but still quickly accessible in a few minutes walking. The resort itself is quite big but well structured to make it accessible and comfortable for each guests without feeling crowded. The whole complex is a tiny bit dated now but that is completely compensated by the fact that the amenities and receptions spaces are all perfectly maintained and cleaned efficiently. The breakfast is very generous, rooms very large and the view is appreciated everywhere (we even had a bit of sea view although booked a garden view. Nice pool. Prices for extras are very honest and affordable (even cheaper than some downtown bars!). Kind staff. A very well appreciated stay.

Pavel Hollain

The first thing I have to highlight is the staff. Incredibly pleasant and helpful! The hotel as a whole needs a bit of renovation. More wear could be seen at times. The rooms are very spacious and clean (except for a few cobwebs). The breakfast was okay, but it wouldn't hurt to have more choice. I expected a little more for the price. Overall, I rate this stay as very positive.

Annalise T.

We are enjoying our time here. The staff are friendly and helpful. I love the pool and the view of the sea. We love the walk down to the local beach, its water is refreshing. The mini supermarket close by has enough choice at the end of the day and there's a good sized fridge in the room. The AC in the room is good. You are only to run it when you are in the room but the room isn't getting hot in the day with it off and I don't even have it on much when we're in the room (my husband likes it on to sleep). The shower has good power, we have a wet room though and the floor tends to flood a little. Not really a problem but something to be aware of. We've rented a car and love this location as a base to explore the island from. It's a nice quiet place to return to at the end of a hectic day. There are a few restaurants close to the beach which are nice and relaxing. You also need to rent a boat from Danny's Boats down by the beach, it's an amazing deal and one of the best experiences we had, a must. There is also a bus stop by the hotel which many people use.

Christina Georgiadou

An exceptional hotel on the most beautiful side of the island Corfu. The staff were incredibly welcoming and very amiable throughout our stay. The rooms were beautiful and very clean as so the pool and the area around it. At the restaurant you can find a lot of traditional Greek dishes such as mousaka, pastitsio, gyro and tzatziki. All of them delicious and well made. A quiet and stunning hotel. Highly recommended !!!

maciek bar

I have stayed there for one week. All inclusive. The drinks served were good quality, and the food was excellent. I have enjoyed meat dishes and a great selection of vegetables. There is a swimming pool and great see views. Staff working in the hotel are the friendest people ever. I would go there again if I have time and money. Great holiday and super clean water in the sea.

Russell Townson

This Hotel is NOT 4star. Don't be deceived by the pictures. Rooms are not cleaned properly. The food is mediocre at best. If you booked a seaview, you need to be ready to climb a small mountain whilst dragging your luggage behind you, as you won't get any help with it. Health and safety? there is none. You take your life into your own hands. You have been warned! Avoid at all costs.

Stephan L

Guys, should you be looking for frustration and disappointment guaranteed, we recommend to book on this hotel. Do you enjoy to eat the same breakfast and dinner, both of a narrow choice and poor quality? We recommend to book on this hotel. Mould around the shower cabin, toiletry articles only for the first night, plenty of ugly stains on the balcony floor tiles? Fine, we recommend to book on this hotel. Not one flower pot in the whole hotel complex, no charme, no atmosphere ... your thing? Then we recommend to book on this hotel. It is hard to understand why this place would deserve 4 stars! We would give two, with good will maybe also three stars. Never again this place!!!

Stuart Broderick

Just got back from one week half board, thank you very much we had a great time. The hotel location is perfect for the beach, shops, and bars. The room had everything you need and was clean. The restaurant was very good, big selection of food. A big shout out to Ivan and the girl's from the entertainment team, also the restaurant and reception staff were very helpful and nice people. We will be back one day for sure. Thank you.

Αγγελική Δημητροπούλου

I had the absolute pleasure of staying at "CNic Gemini Hotel'' and I must say that it was an experience that exceeded all our expectations. The hotel staff was friendly and eager to assist us and the rooms were very clean !! I will definitely choose this hotel again for my stay !!!! Μany congratulations to all !!!!!!

Archana Patel

We booked this hotel for a week stay and are currently staying here as I write this. This is an honest review of the hotel. The location is great! The sea front, beach and river are all 3 minutes away from the hotel. It is on a slightly quieter part of town but there are several supermarkets as well 5 mins walk away (opp OliBar). They are well stocked with groceries, jewellery, hats, bags, gifts, ice cream etc Cons: We’re in a tiny room. The fridge freezer doesn’t work. There is no cupboards/wardrobes to hang or store clothes. The breakfast options for vegetarians are limited at best. The service is rubbish. They take your plate before you’ve even started eating if you leave it unattended whilst you go to get tea etc. The kitchen and wait staff don’t understand or speak much English. They will not make you other kinds of eggs or accommodate any other requests. They charge a €10 fee for pool towels for the week as well a deposit. If you want a new one in this time it’s another €2/towel. They also charge you to use the safes which are installed in the rooms, which is ridiculous. I would not expect these kind of charges or service from a “four-star” hotel. Housekeeping didn’t change the cups in our room so we went to reception to let them know. He had the audacity to tell us to just wash them ourselves!!! Or that we can buy our own! We also asked for extra clothes hangers on our first night and the same receptionist said maids will bring them up to our room, they have yet to materialise! There is one main swimming pool (and one kiddie pool) with sun loungers and umbrellas around the main pool. However it is too cramped. There is not enough space to walk around safely without tripping on a lounger. Several people tripped and hurt themselves over the few hours I spent by the pool. There is an outdoor bar selling drinks and ice cream etc which is nice but they don’t have all of the items advertised on the menu which was a shame. A bit expensive at €10 for a small plastic cup of cocktails (think of a Small Costa iced drink cup in size). All in all, very disappointed with this hotel.

Bradley Masters

Very much enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel. It has been very recently renovated and everything was clean and well kept. Staff friendly. Lots of pool side and evening activities led by Ivan and his team. Great job! If that's not your thing then the beach is a couple of minutes walk from the hotel. Sea was warm and inviting and we always managed to find a lounger. Lots of water activities and boat hire on beach. We rented a self drive boat and travelled south for some swimming and moored up at a restaurant for a meal on the way back.

Katie Hardman

This is advertised as a 4 star hotel but is definitely closer to a 3, even 2 star. The food was poor, all the hot buffet food was cold unless you got there as soon as the restaurant opened. There was a very clinical vibe to the place, almost like it had no soul. We spent all our time by the beach as the locals and the food there were amazing. The inside bar wasn’t open and the outside bar gave you drinks in disposable plastic cups which were terrible, I could understand that if we were going round the pool but to sit at the bar and drink out of cheap plastic was horrible. Didn’t use the pool once as the bar was rubbish and the beach was so much more appealing.

Mark McLoughlin

This hotel is advertised as a 4 star, but we feel it needs some love and upgrading. Unfortunately our double room was two single beds pushed together, the breakfast was quite disappointing too (especially the eggs). The service however by all of the staff, has been fantastic - right from the moment you walk in, the restaurant staff, bar staff. Always on hand to help! The location is good with some good restaurants around, also a 30 mins walk to some other great restaurants and a bus stop outside to get around into old town really easy. Would love the hotel to make some upgrades to really give it that 4 star feel!

eurico santos

Excellent hotel near city center and local beaches, good public transportation, staff mega friendly, a special thanks to Mrs Thalia/Mariette and the front desk manager who helped to sort out some issues. I truly recommend and I will return. It's my hotel on the island.

Chris “RedMartian”

What used to be a great 4star hotel is now slowly showing its age. The service remains very good, friendly smiles and in various languages. The room is where you can see it the most. We got a room that smelled very heavily of smoke. The table on the balcony, that has a beautiful view, was broken. The bathroom has seen better days, there are real plumbing issues that manifest in slowly draining showers and a strong sewer smell. You do have a water cooker but you can barely find a spot to plug it in. The rest of the facilities seem OK, but are just a bit run down. Price was more than fair, and all in all a pleasant stay.

I don’t understand how this is a 4-star hotel — I would give it 3 stars at most. The biggest issue is the food — it’s very tasteless, the drinks and juices are terrible and poor in quality, and the coffee has a very strange taste. The staff is friendly, and the rooms are clean, but some of them definitely need renovation. I stayed in two different rooms — one was much better than the other. The pool is in very bad condition and dirty. The location of the hotel is good — it’s close to a bus stop and the airport. But the food is, at the very least, awful, and because of that, I wouldn’t come back here.

Ευα Αβραμοπουλου

We went to this hotel with my school this April. The exterior of the hotel is perfect, but when you stay inside the rooms—which are small and nothing special—you come across various damages. Personally, I even found cobwebs. The cleaning lady doesn’t change the sheets, and the buffet was awful—half of the food didn’t taste good and there was very little variety. The juice was terrible to

Robert Olszewski

Marianna at reception is simply priceless treasure of this hotel. Friendly, always very helpful, positive and happy person. Thanks for helping me and looking after me throughout week in hotel. Hotel is in good location, few minutes from beautiful beach, restaurant and few shops. Apparently there is a bus going to Corfu town. Also 10 minute drive from Porto Timoni, 50 minut drive from Corfu town. Room was nice and clean, bed comfortable. Evening entertainment almost every day bringing you some nice vibe. Pool nice. Smell as some people described appeared sometimes but this can happen everywhere. I read people positive opinions about food but I can’t agree with it. I’m not picky person and few basic things are enough for me. However this time I felt hopeless every day about breakfast lunch nad dinner. However if some people were happy with food maybe it was me so you have to gamble yourself or eat outside. I didn’t notice any other issues but I spent majority of time away from hotel exploring Corfu. In overall hotel is nice staff friendly and helpful, location is good as well.

Petr Hank

Beautiful hotel on a beautiful place. Everybody can find his own way to enjoy this place. You can find calm places or you can enjoy an evening music. The staff is great, very friendly and helpful. The food is not bad. One can always find something for his liking. It is not the greatest, but we enjoyed it. Thank you!

Bordi Music

Staff was great, no doubts. Hotel is located close to the beach. Really nice swimming pools (3 of them). But ...the terrible smell for entire staying is unforgettable (no worries, you will get used to during first days though). Food is almost the same every single day, avarage quality.

Tina Cox

This hotel is advertised as a four star and I don't think it warrants this. The bedding and curtains are old, dated and dowdy. The pillows were tiny and lumpy and you couldn't get any extras.The stench from the sewers is overwhelming especially away from the main building. The staff are efficient but mostly not joyous in their work, Joanne at reception was the exception to this. The WiFi was practically non existent. The food was very samey and lukewarm, the saving grace was that there were some good local bars. I would not go back to the hotel again

We stayed here a week ago for 6 nights and this was what I thought. - When we arrived, we were given a room on the top floor whilst the lift was broken. After being asked to move multiple times, the receptionists told us it would be fixed the next day and they said that for 4 days straight. It was only until our second to last day it was fixed. - Sometimes there was no signs for food on the buffet - The WiFi does not work well anywhere. The receptionist even told me it doesn’t work in any rooms. - There is a horrible sewage smell that can be smelled anywhere in the hotel. - The swimming pools are filthy. Even with goggles on you cannot see the bottom of the pool. - Food was extremely repetitive and bad. Something else to note is there isn’t much that is kid friendly for food. Also was a very small choice in food. - No water bottles are supplied to rooms even though you cannot get water from taps - Our room was not clean on arrival and was cleaned poorly throughout our stay. - Shower was very bad, either warm with terrible pressure or freezing with a lot of pressure. - Good location for the beach however not near much else, there isn’t much to do outside the hotel. - AC in the room is good - Drinks machine broke two nights in the hotel so only water or beer was on offer. A few things to think about… - It is ages from the airport, however this resulted in us getting a private transfer for free both ways (we booked with easyJet) - We seemed to be the only English people in the resort, this is not a complaint but some of the staff did not speak English well. - No English channels on the TV. All together was a good stay due to the fact we only spent 2 days in the hotel. Wouldn’t stay again and would not recommend.

Leila Fisher

Currently here at the moment, wifi is shocking no connection in room non existent went to speak to reception staff to be told it's the area, slow everywhere. Hardly works in reception either. Room is a box room, with a big chest in the walk way to which keep banging our legs and both have raised bruises. Have to keep a light on to see at night. Bed was supposed to be a double to arrival was 2 single beds (fishfingers) they said they will push them together. The rooms definitely need updating as is like a hostel. Lifts cannot fit 2x people in and your luggage look very old. Taxi from the airport to here was €50 and then got to reception here and €70 for tax!! Food- we are only BNB but breakfast is always cold , had to send to kitchen to be warmed in microwave still wasnt hot when bought back out. No hash browns! Or pancakes. Noise from the maids from 6am is unreal banging stuff around and trollys moving on the floors. Talking so loudly. Their cleaning cudboard is facing our room. No choice to get up. Would say this is the worst hotel we've stayed in. Views are really nice, pools are decent roof pool nice to sit by in the evenings. The onsight shop is ok for choice reasonable prices too. Bus stop to Corfu town is literally outside the hotel and cost €5 for 2 of us 1 way. Recommendations from receptionist for nice places to eat were really nice places happy with those. Not wheelchair friendly at all. All in all to end this i Would say this was not a 4 star hotel would be pushing it at a 3 star. More like a hostel than a hotel.

Daniel Chapman

Just got back this morning from a week here all inclusive, Our arrival… we arrived about 11:30pm to a man who just shoved a bit of paper in front of us saying fill this out and demanding €70 should of been €35 as the hotel is definitely not a 4* hotel. There was no refreshments for us there when we arrived as other hotels I’ve previously stayed at have provided. We were given some sort of direction to our room which was hard to understand but after some searching we found it. The hotel… it’s very dated (we heard from staff that the owners lease is up this year so he isn’t putting any money into it) we arrived a few days before the official season started so food was very poor and cold first few days but noticed this improved towards the end of our stay. The free WiFi was crap in our room to the point I had to use my own data but worked okay around the bottom pool area and main reception/bar. It was advertised as having 2 pools both with pool bars but the top pool bar didn’t open until the 2nd to last day of our stay due to it being out of season which we weren’t told that, Partly love holidays fault for false advertising. Even when the top bar opened they didn’t serve snacks like advertised you had to walk all the way through the hotel and down 8 flights of stairs to get to the bottom pool to get something as simple as an ice cream, the all inclusive drinks weren’t too bad, always expected it to be low volume house spirits started from 10am to 11pm but you had to pay for cocktails and even tea/coffee which I thought was wrong. There weren’t enough sunbeds to accommodate all hotel guests and even brollies to cover the sunbeds they had if you wanted to lay in the shade. There was at least 2/3 broken too The event staff were good, a bit lacking through the day but evening was only from either 21:30-23:00 or sometimes 22:00-23:00 depending on when they eventually started Positives… it was very hot so the cold pools were a godsend!! The on site shop was very well stocked with everything you could need especially mossie bite creams!! The views were the best part of the whole hotel experience they are breath taking

Matthew James

The area is stunning, the people are lovely, The hotel not so great, We was greeted by a young gentleman that carried our bags up the stairs to the main entrance, the bar is in the main entrance and it was 12am on disco night so was very loud although check in was very swift, and was given all information we needed and the young gentleman took our cases to our room. Our first room was more a hostel, a foul smell of sewage, looking a dirt track I asked to be moved room and was told I would need to ask in the morning, Second morning I went to ask to be moved rooms which cost €20 per night so €120 not ideal, but to get out of that first room I had to pay that or find another hotel!! This room has a smell of sewage but not nearly as bad as the first Had a look around the hotel, it’s very dated and looks like it’s had no investment for a decade! The roof top pool doesn’t have an open bar, so only spent an hour up there with a bottle of water I purchased from the shop, was some sun loungers but tired and rusty! The pool itself was very nice with a beautiful view of the mountains The lower pool, look up at the hotel, not the nicest view and again the smell of sewage - we didn’t use the pool during our stay The food was poor (my opinion) others seemed to be enjoying it, but I mainly lived on chips during my stay, however the desserts were very nice, drinks were ok but as a fizzy drink snob I couldn’t drink too many, I cant comment on the alcohol as I don’t drink, There was a strict no food out of the dining room policy in place, which I found strange that we couldn’t go eat outside on the terrace, WiFi was shocking, be forewarned you will need to make sure your phone has data as joining the WiFi was pointless

Tom Allen

Me and my wife came to stay last week for a week away, we upgraded to the bungalow with sea view no balcony, this room was okay but still had 2 single beds pushed together and cheap bedding. The view was spectacular. But apart from that the rest of the holiday went downhill are toilet stopped working on the second day and we told reception it would be sorted we then went back to our rooms in the evening and it was not fixed, I went to complain again and I just got brushed off so had to fix it myself which is unacceptable! The food at the all inclusive buffet was cold and bland and pretty similar every night. The rooftop pool next to our room was freezing cold and no bar staff. A taxi anywhere is €50 so cramped buses are your only option around, we got bitten alive by ants due to the poorly maintained rooms, and the railing that stops you falling when opening the terraced doors is hanging on by a thread in room 709 very dangerous! I would not be staying here in this hotel again.

Agnieszka Kaczmarek

hotel definitely below European standards cleanliness in rooms and generally in the recreation area below standards. The hotel needs renovation. Food is average, very monotonous and the choice is quite modest. If someone has purchased all inclusive, they must be prepared for quite high additional costs after 23 everything is payable and the choice of cocktails is quite modest. The number of available sunbeds by the pools is very limited and evenings with animators end around 23 despite the fact that it is a hotel for "adults". The biggest advantage is the location, the views are breathtaking and this would be the only plus of this hotel.

Vita Miskiniene

I recently stayed at this hotel in Corfu and while there were some fantastic aspects, a few key issues left me disappointed. On the positive side, the location is ideal – close to many attractions, and the views are absolutely breathtaking. Waking up to the sight of the sea each morning was unforgettable. The staff were also extremely friendly and always willing to help, which added a welcoming touch to the stay. However, several things did not meet the expectations of a 4-star hotel. There were no irons in the rooms, which is a basic amenity for most travelers. Drinks were served in plastic cups – not only did this feel cheap, but it also raised concerns from an environmental perspective. One of the more serious issues was the lack of toilet facilities at the upper pool bar. This is not only inconvenient but also raises concerns about hygiene standards, especially in a space where food and drinks are being served. Additionally, guests are charged for pool towels, and sun beds on the beach cost €15 per day – a fee that feels excessive and inappropriate for a hotel of this rating. Overall, while the hotel’s location and staff were excellent, the lack of key amenities and unexpected extra charges significantly detracted from the experience. With some improvements, particularly around facilities and guest comfort, it could live up to its potential.

Ray Mble

Avoid at all costs – this is NOT a 4-star hotel This has been one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The bathroom was filthy and the towel had huge holes in them. No proper cleaning was done during our stay, only the bed was made they did not clean the sink or the floor. Our balcony door was left wide open by the cleaners, making our room completely accessible from outside. Totally unacceptable. The staff, both at reception and in the all-inclusive restaurant, were consistently rude and unhelpful. As for the food, everything was ridiculously salty. Nothing about this place reflects the 4-star rating they claim. In reality, it’s struggling to meet even 2-star standards. I would never return here and strongly advise others to stay away. Save your money and your sanity — this hotel is a disgrace. Only positive notes, the Poseidon bar is really nice with friendly staff and the sunset cruise is a must do !

Katerina Vodickova

We stayed the last week of May. The beach is very beautiful, clean. The food in the restaurant was excellent, we enjoyed everything very much and the menu was constantly changing. Fresh salads and meat every day and a wide menu for gluten-free guests. All the staff were incredibly nice, from the receptionists to the waiters (greetings and thanks to Janis) to the best bartender and DJ Kostas, who takes very good care of the upper bar and pool. The whole place is beautifully decorated, cleaned and tidied up, he makes the best drinks and is the most skilled employee in the entire hotel. Once again, thank you for the family atmosphere and Kostas' service, which we have never experienced anywhere else. We remember with love, Katerina & Michael

I won't be original, I won't say anything that has already been said. Check in from 15:00, for each day of stay per room a fee of 10 € is charged, payable in cash. The reception and some rooms with a sea view are located near the beach and probably the fewest people will complain if they are placed there. There are two blocks - block A and block B. And that's where the houses on the hills are. This is for people who like to walk in the mountains, for others - make sure you are in a good physical condition to go down to the main restaurant and climb back up, at least 3 times a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner). We were placed in a house with room 205 (block A). There is a bar with local alcohol and soft drinks, instant coffee and tea, a swimming pool with sun loungers (they are not washed or disinfected so they smell a bit unpleasant), there is no lifeguard by the pool, there are also no toilets - if you need to, you have to go to your room. Between meals, only mini sandwiches made by the barman and cake are available. Mostly no signal and internet, very weak wi-fi. There was no TV in our room, the air conditioning was broken for the first two days (it could not be turned off), during the 8 days of stay, the last 3 days there was no hot water. When we reported that the toilet flush did not work, the reception replied that they might take care of it later... It stinks of sewage. The food is the same, quite good although there is not much choice, salads and vegetables, a few desserts and fruit, ice cream. No description of what kind of dish it is! The nearest shop is quite a climb uphill, it would be best if you rent a car, it will definitely help you get to the houses located on the hills if you are accommodated there. The reception staff is not very helpful, they cannot organize a roll of toilet paper when you run out. You can rent a car on site. A very big minus is that there is no place for non-smokers, you can smoke everywhere there (except the main restaurant). No entertainment - so if you like dancing and music it will be very boring here, take bottles for water. No phone in the room, to report a fault you have to go down to the reception. The beach is unpleasant, pebbly and rocky. There is a bar there that is not affiliated with the hotel, but you can get a 15% discount. There is a stand where you can rent a boat. This is the worst place we have been, and to be honest we couldn't wait to leave.

This is not a 4* hotel and 1* is being generous. Stayed at Blue Princess 5days late May 2025 and was the worst experience of my life. Hotel is in really bad condition, especially the rooms. There are no toilets close to the swimming pools, bars weren’t open, no entertainment at all (not even ambient music) was quite cold at night and there is no lounge were you could stay. For our surprise city fee is 10€ per day and must be paid in cash. Hotel Internet doesn’t work and staff isn’t helpful at all. Had to argue to get an extra blanket/duvet for my room as they said there was none available. Towels had stains, room wasn’t clean (only bed was done) no toiletries as mentioned on the website (went with LoveHolidays) no water, kettle, coffee etc Hotel only uses plastic cups what made to feel like at a student party. Food wise the restaurant is too poor and no Greek food at all. A lot of hidden fees like a la carte restaurant not being included as mentioned on our pack. Beach chairs 15€ pp/day, towel fees and if I wanted bottle of water I had to pay, they only offer plastic cups of water. I wouldn’t recommend the hotel to my worst enemy.

Kieran Guy

Absolutely loved our stay at Amour Hotel! The rooms were stylish and spotless, the atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant, and every detail felt thoughtfully done. What really made the experience exceptional was the staff—genuinely warm, helpful, and consistently going above and beyond. From check-in to check-out, they made us feel completely looked after. Highly recommended!

Dean Zweck

The staff were amazing, very friendly and professional. We got there before check in and were invited to go straight to lunch which was ending soon. Food was varied and tasty, and drink selection was decent. We had a junior suite with shared pool which was superb for us with a 5 year old. Walking distance to Canal D’Amour and beach, and also close to bus stop for bus to Corfu town. A great hotel, excellent value for money.

Amberley Elvines

The service from the staff is second to none. They are so accommodating and made us feel so welcome. Sidari was also the perfect location for us as a couple, plenty of bars and restaurants around with the beach and beach bars right on the doorstep. The room was also kept clean everyday by housekeeping. We had a beautiful room with a pool right outside our hotel room back door, shared with only 3 other rooms. The main pool is also fantastic with a great pool bar, amazing service here too!! Cannot recommend this hotel enough, and a special thank you to the manager Apostolis, we’ve had a lovely holiday thanks to you.

Sue Mather

Food always cold and no microwave. Only one toilet cubicle for male and female in reception. One bar/ pool bar. This is a very small family run business that needs a lot of updates. We were put in a family room with bunk beds the room was so small. Sidari itself is great, look for the two beach bars that have their own swimming pools looking out to sea. The bars on the left of the strip go out to the beach and if you buy a drink you can use the sun beds for free. Going back in September but a different apartment. 6 June 25.

Jordan Ellwood

Clean and tidy, staff were great and very conscientious, food and drinks were good. Pool and resort was very clean. I had a few issues with the bathroom. It is branded as a 4-star however I believe at the moment it's a very strong 3-star. This is the start of the season I can tell that they are working to improve the hotel which is fantastic to see

Linh Nguyen

Our experience at this hotel was a bit disappointing. Although we booked a four-star hotel, the standard was at best three stars. Its more of a low budget all inclusive hotel. The bungalov There was mold in the bungalow, the air conditioning was not working for two nights, and then there were more problems in other rooms. The room lacked a kettle. The reception staff was slow to respond to complaints, and we waited a long time for repair and cleaning. The restaurant and staff The only positive aspects of the hotel were the friendly staff and the great variety of food at lunch and dinner. However, breakfast was the same every day. The beach is with small pebbles so you definitely will need shoes. There are free umbrellas available for hotel guests. The pool During our entire stay, the pool was never cleaned even once. The water was green with algae, which is unacceptable, especially since we have small children who are sensitive to rashes.

Vanda Mikó

My experience here was really good. The staff was amazing, kind and very helpful. I loved the hotel and the many opportunities it offered. Having a car rental in the hotel is extremely convenient. The view and the ocean is amazing. I will definitely go back again.

Youness Aniba

I recently stayed at Sunshine Corfu Hotel & Spa All Inclusive , and it was by far the worst hotel experience I've ever had. From start to finish, it was a nightmare. **Food**: The food served at the hotel was of extremely poor quality. I ended up getting food poisoning after eating one of their meals, which completely ruined my stay. The food was not only tasteless but clearly unhygienic. I was sick for days and had to seek medical attention due to the severity of my symptoms. **Room**: The room was another disaster. It was dirty when I checked in, with visible stains on the bedding and dust everywhere. The bathroom was grimy, and it was clear that it hadn't been cleaned properly in a long time. Despite my complaints to the staff, the room was never properly cleaned during my stay. **Service**: The service was equally appalling. The staff was unhelpful and rude. When I brought up my concerns about the food and the cleanliness of the room, they were dismissive and made no effort to address the issues. I felt completely neglected and ignored. **Conclusion**: This hotel was a total disappointment in every aspect. I would strongly advise against staying here if you care about your health, comfort, and overall experience. Save yourself the trouble and find a better place to stay. This place is a health hazard and should be avoided at all costs.

Timotej Michálek

Very good hotel. I was pleasantly surprised by how nice the rooms were and the staff was amazing. Everybody at the hotel was extremely nice and helpful. The views are amazing from the hotel, and the beach and sea are clean. The only downsides are that there's a lot's of stairs and elevators given the way the hotel is built. It's an older hotel, and some parts of the building show that, however, they are trying to renovate everything, and they are willing to improve. The food was also amazing, it was high quality, and they kept changing the food options from one day to another, so there's enough variety. I really recommend this hotel, especially for the couples.

Maris Rodins

Fortunately, I was able to cancel my stay after the first night. The hotel is situated right next to the sea with a truly breathtaking view. In my opinion, the owner of the hotel should either consider closing it for a complete renovation or selling it to someone willing to invest and transform it into a top-rated hotel. The staff is friendly and eager to assist, although it seems like they may be facing some challenges.

Gautam Nayak

Nice hotel located on the slope of a hill, about 15 minutes from a beach and a viewpoint of Kanoni Harbour, overlooking the airport runway, and a little distance from Corfu Town. City Bus service every 20 minutes to Corfu town. Excellent breakfast spread and good restaurant with reasonable variety at reasonable prices. Staff are helpful though not very forthcoming unless you specifically ask for something. No coffee maker in the room and room service doesn't start till 7.30 am. No drinking water provided - one has to go out and purchase from a mini market 5 minutes away or take from the mini bar for 4 euros.

Marta Fabrizi

Overall was nice to stay, however you should do some adjustments on service and attitude of the staff. The receptionist ( lady with red hair) wasn’t the greatest. It felt like she was annoyed about us asking questions and she wasn’t very helpful. The housekeeper didn’t clean our room properly. Still dirty room and not bother you tidy up the bed properly. The guy at the restaurant ( main guy, I forgot his name) was very nice and friendly. The breakfast was well presented with a lot of variety of food. It’s wasn’t that bad, however it could be better.

David Rowley

We were very happy with our 5 days spent at Divani Corfu (two adults and one child). The bedroom probably needed a little updating (3rd floor) but it was very clean and comfortable. Pool is amazing, we were happy to spend the day there! Breakfast was very good. We ate lunch/dinner at the hotel as it was easily the best food compared to the other local restaurants we tried. The chef needs an award. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The decor of the main hotel area is first class (marble and cool 60's lines). This hotel easily exceeded my expectations. Would have been more than happy to spend the entire 5 days there without exploring the rest of Corfu! I've rated 4 for the room as I think the bathroom in the room could do with an update at some point, and 4 for the location as it the outside street/houses appeared a bit run-down (apologies to the locals). Generally though, this is 5 out of 5.

Ana Paula Murillo

It’s an amazing hotel the buffet included for breakfast has been one of the best ones I have had, they have so many options from bakery to eggs to local foods. The rooms were nice and the pool had really nice temperature. It is a nice location however you are far away from beaches I recommend renting a car and from downtown you are far away by walking but you can hop into line 2A right in front of the hotel (it costs 2€), but anything above that it’s a really good hotel.

Christine Karlaganis

We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. Good location, on-site parking. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast, when out of there way to cater for our gluten free child. Great pool, with great bar drinks. Would definitely stay again.

Catherine Freeland

Stayed here one night before boating around Corfu. It was a lovely hotel, clean with a helpful staff and great breakfast. The pool area was the perfect place to relax. Would recommend this place!

Jan Vos

A nice place, lovely people but a few things to keep in mind: We stayed in a junior suite. -you need a car. -The shower in is the bathtub and for me (1,85m and 85kg) it was very small. -The shower temperature is not constant, going from very hot to really cold every 30 seconds. Which makes you need to step out every 30 seconds. -Food is okay but nothing special. Drinks are not included and are very expensive(Cocktail is 11 euro) -Gym is a treadmill, a bike, and a broken fly combi machine. -wellness is very expensive, starting from 80 euro. Other than that, your room gets cleaned every day and de staff is very friendly.

Bartek Marczak

An amazing hotel! Clean, intimate, well-maintained, and incredibly guest-friendly. There are no problems here - just a fantastic experience! Delicious breakfasts, fantastic dinners, and exquisite wine available at the bar. The green areas are beautifully taken care of, the pool loungers are cleaned daily, and pool towels are included in the room price (such a great perk!). Be sure to order drinks at the pool bar - they're tasty and strong! :) I highly recommend this place. The location is perfect—well-positioned for easy access to Corfu’s main attractions and stunning beaches. It’s just a 10-minute walk to the town center and the beach. Thanks to the bay, the water is calm and warmer, making it the perfect spot to relax. Sunbeds on the beach are reasonably priced, around 8-10 euros per day. If you're visiting Corfu, stay at Art Hotel Debono!

Anna Grammenou

“I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive, the rooms were spotless, and everything felt well-maintained. The food was delicious — truly a treat — and the prices were very reasonable. Overall, it’s a place that combines comfort, quality, and great service. Highly recommended!”

Vishal Patel

An enjoyable and comfortable stay. It was clean and our room had a nice terrace area. The service was great and the quality of the breakfast and food in general was great! Gouvia Beach is nearby, but it is a bit away from Old town if you don’t have a car but only a 15min drive from Old Town.

Agnieszka Wacław

I decided to spend my birthday holiday in this hotel and that was a great idea! Very good breakfasts, everyone will find something for themselves. Very nice, friendly and always smiling staff. Hotel knew that I had birthday so they prepared for me a surprise - birthday cake with bottle of sparkling wine. It really touched my heart ❤️ thank you so much for the warm hospitality and making me feel special. If I come back to Corfu, definitely will stay in your hotel!

Paul Conquest

Absolutely fantastic place, we were really lucky to find this, it's about a 20-25 min walk to Corfu old town market, there is a great cocktail bar over the road also. The sea is literally just over the road. The staff here are so friendly and very accommodating, the food is delicious and the buffet breakfast has plenty of options for Vegetarians and non Veggies alike. I can't comment on Vegan options, I'm sure they will accommodate. Rooms are lovely and look amazing, beds very comfy.

Steve James

Just stayed a week at Mon Repos Palace. Fantastic location and the room was overlooking the sea. The staff were really good at their jobs, nothing too much trouble. We stayed bed and breakfast. The food was lovely and plentiful. The same can be said for the evening buffet. The rooms were spotless and the cleaning staff, brilliant. A lovely hotel, the location was great with a steady walk into the beautiful Corfu Town. I would definitely recommend this hotel and I would stay again.

Jason

Amazing location right on the water with a nice little pool which is good for a city hotel. Just 20mins walk in to old town or 20mins walk to the airport. Very good breakfast, making omelette to order as you sit outside looking on to the water. Bathroom needs an upgrade- the bath/shower was very old fashioned. Beds were a bit too hard for me also. Over all, very nice stay

Magda Maniati

Top experience! Amazingly professional, friendly and helpful hotel team! Great quality and beautiful rooms with comfort! Also the location is peaceful and beautiful near the sea.

Shane Donkin

Came on a package deal through Expedia. Staff are really friendly. Pool area is lovely. Food a little disappointing at times. Sometimes a few nice mains and other days not so great. Our room was lovely, but the bed was really soft and gave me backache. I asked reception if they could change the mattress, and they said they would speak to the housekeeping, but nothing came of it, so I just endured it. Our room was above the bar and had drunk people laughing and talking loudly till 1am in the morning. I eventually had to ask them to please be quiet. Far from the beach but they do offer a taxi service to the beach . The entertainment they put on every night was really good. Traditional Greek dancing one night , a guy on a keyboard who was really good and a small band who were great too. All in all it was a great stay for the price we paid and I probably would go back there.

Lewis Aspinall

Me and my girlfriend stayed here 4 nights at the start of May. As we arrived were greeted and shown are room being told we had been upgraded to the new builds. The new builds are a 5 minute walk all up hill (very very steep) away from the hotel, we were offered to be driven up and driven down at our disposal however when we had asked reception there were many excuses about transport to the room being unavailable meaning when we left the hotel we had to drag our luggage down the hill. The new build rooms our nice however nothing like the pictures shown. The double bed is singles pushed together so sometimes the bed creates a big gap in the middle. The bathroom was nice however looked very run down for a new build and our shower had stopped working one morning. The balcony however is lovely and gives beautiful views which is great for a late night drink on the balcony! Room overall was probably a 2/5. House keeping cleaned our room 2 out of the 4 days we were there. The sheets smelt damp and the towels had a funny smell so could have done with housekeeping actually cleaning the room every morning. All inclusive drinks were very good, lots to choose from and the bar staff very friendly, there is a lovely place to sit outside sheltered and not sheltered, there is also entertainment that happens every night. Drinks/entertainment 5/5 Pool has a lovely view and was very clean, lots of sun beds to choose from with and without shade, so no fighting over sun beds, pool area 4.5/5. The food was very hit and miss however even for the pickiest eaters there is something. Lots of traditional dishes to choose from which was nice to try, including a gyro night. Food 4/5 Overall reception staff could have been more helpful but bar staff and waiters were very good. Would recommend this hotel if you want to go out exploring, transport links to popular places is very good and easy. Overall stay at golden mare 2.5/5

Jenna Stott

the hotel is beautiful but it definitely lacks a lot of things, our shower leaks, the mattress has a massive ditch in it which the hotel hasn’t sorted and the walls are extremely thin. You can hear so much through them, you can also hear everything from down in the bar until early hours of the morning so if people are loud it’s awful. The beaches near the hotel are gorgeous and so is the over all hotel. The food is very repetitive and not many healthy options, i also don’t think the pool area is big enough for how many people the accommodate for, one day i saw a lot of people not able to get a sunbed.

mill luck

My boyfriend and I have just come to the end of a weeklong-stay at the Golden Mare Resort. To start with, the surrounding location is lovely. The closest beach is no longer than 5 minutes to walk, there are plenty of little market shops including one attached to the hotel, a couple supermarkets a very short distance from the hotel and lots of lovely restaurants with a beautiful view to choose from nearby if you like. All the staff were lovely and so helpful with any questions or concerns we had. The food was delicious, sometimes a little bit samey but nothing less than I would expect from an all inclusive and was always yummy so cannot complain! If I’m being picky, all I would say is the cocktails could be a little bit better. But overall a great time 🩷

Danielle Price

Staff on reception flagging off other customers infront of us and laughing. Drinks tasted cheap and the pumps kept breaking as there were multiple power cuts! Food wasn't the best, breakfast was the only decent meal. Nothing surrounding the area either unless you go further out. Lots of complaints from other customers and some people had to get a taxi to their room as it was that far from the main entrance! Although the hotel appears to look nice on photos it is ultimately a MARE!

Steve Owen

Aqua land resort We were so sceptical about this holiday after the negative comments on Facebook and some Tripadvisor. The transfer is only 20 minutes and we were welcomed at reception, everything was explained to us and then we were given our keys, tourist tax for the room Was €10 per night. We had a family deluxe room which I was very surprised and pleased that it had an en-suite and for those light sleepers no windows in the upstairs bedroom makes for a very good nights sleep. The Appartment 2515 had recently been modernised, had a small balcony and the air con worked well, there was a safe which is free and a small fridge. It was close to both pools, the restaurant and the lobby bar. There were reports of a sewer smell but we did not smell this, the resort is clean and tidy, the holiday makers let it down by not tidying up after themselves and we witnessed cups around the pool, which in turn attracts ants, another issue people had reported. The food, yes it’s buffet style, but I can honestly say, as a family of five with three fussy eaters had absolutely no problem with the food. Fantastic salad bar, plenty of fresh choice, with none of us going hungry and the staff work hard clearing the tables. The staff are very friendly and polite, especially if you can learn to say thank you in Greek. The evening entertainment was not for us, a bit loud and not the best structured, but for young kids maybe. The water park is amazing well laid out plenty of ringos and again the staff are polite and respectful, we holidayed during the May half term and to be honest we did not queue for any of the rides, just be prepared for plenty of steps. The downsides The resort is in the middle of nowhere, no bars, restaurants, beech or harbour insight, plenty to do during the day, but we felt a little trapped at night. Overall I would recommend Aqualand resort.

Kristy Parker

Our holiday on 20th May to Aquland Water Park and Resort Corfu, was appalling. The hotel has an ant infestation (you will find them across the resort and in your bed) advertised facilities were not available, food was awful, staff rude, building works going on, glass around the wave pool, rude and unhelpful TUI Rep who didnt even turn up when she was supoosed to, the wave pool water was dirty, we were offered a room to shower in and get changed (which were unisex toilets/showers being used by swimmers which were filthy and soaking wet and the doors had no locks so anyone can just walk in mid shower. We arrived at 11pm and was offered toast as all bars were closed as was the mini mart so left hungry all night. The hotel cannot cope with the amount of guests, you will be fighting for sun loungers and queuing for everything and getting sunburn in the meantime. It was truly awful. Raised a complaint with TUI and they handled our concerns with ignorance and no effort to resolve anything. They have repeatedly sent the same email saying they are sorry for our experience and our concerns have been taken seriously, which appears to be a template email, that they like to send. Avoid TUI and this hotel, they do care about their customers once they have your money.

julia michailidou

Good hotel with very kind staff. The outside areas of the hotel are not clean, the rooms are not cleaned well when the cleaners come. The hotel buffet is good. The hotel is not far from the center, about 10 minutes by car without traffic.

Richard Everson

My two night stay at the beginning of May 25 was simply awesome...a combination of the comfortable modern accommodation in a relaxing environment mixed with the most wonderful hosts across the whole resort..every single member of the team has been professional and genuinely friendly ..Than you 🥰 ...

Cheryl “Verrycherry”

My family and I went for a week end of September and we had a great time. All inclusive was good value for money. Great selection of drinks and food although I found the food to be a bit bland and lacked in flavour the desserts were amazing. Resort was great for families, we went in group of 10 kids from 18mnths to 15years there was something for everyone. Entertainment was great Brian and crew were so good and Brian had everyone involved. Part of the all inclusive is yhe Water Park which is amazing. We all absolutely loved it. There is a wee pizza place and a supermarket 2 minute walk outside the resort gate. Highly recommend visiting these. Also local buses for Old Corfu Town worth a visit and try the Gyros. Mind tip your servers they go above and beyond for you.

San Dee (Sandee)

The Aeolos resort is a nice place to stay with family. They have 3 nice sized pools (not heated). Room sizes are fair. The food was a bit of a problem in our experience. Most days it was the same thing being repeated. The meat options were poor; most of the time it was pork or fish, not much chicken options. The food was dry and lacked flavour, it was either overly salted or just bland. The range was decent, lunch and dinner options in the main food area were pretty much the same. There were pizzas, pastas and burger huts during the day. Pizza and pasta options were fair and looked tasty. The burgers were ridiculously small & were dry, the chips again had no flavour. A lot of the time I noticed plates and glasses were still dirty, specs of dirt, not horrible but not what you want to see when you pay a price and it's supposed to be a good service. The pools and space of the resort is what brings the review back up to speed. The pools are a good size & spread out over the resort. There was a good amount of bars as well. We were all inclusive so made the most of the drinks, however, as resorts do, it was mostly cheap alcohol so it didn't have much affect if you're looking to get a little tispy 😵‍💫 In all fairness they did have some branded booze, captain morgans white rum, baileys, martini is what we can remember. The rooms were a good size, bed was hard but we still found it comfortable. There was a large ceiling fan and ac in the room which was much needed. The bathroom was very small; the bathtub itself being tiny. It is definitely worth paying a little more for the sea view room and up. Seems the resort is expanding or updating as some new rooms were being built. Overall we would give the resort a 3. Not sure where people get a 4 or a 5 from, I guess many are easily impressed. For flights, all inclusive & transfers we paid around £700 each - this was for a Sunday to Thursday.

Denica Kovacheva

The resort is nice, the pool has amazing view and the beach is very quiet. The rooms are big, cozy and clean. The food included in the all inclusive was not good at all, seemed like they just boiled together everything that they had in the fridge. Almost no sea food, but a lot of junk food-pizza, pasta, French fries. The beverages…just don’t try them 😀 only the beer tastes like beer. The cocktails have the same taste, but different color.

James Statham

Jacob and the Entertainment staff were so nice to the kids and offered lots of fun games every day. We especially loved their Show Time evening show.

alexandru nastase

I had an absolutely terrible experience at this hotel. What was supposed to be a peaceful and relaxing vacation turned into a real nightmare. Things reached a peak one evening when, as I was sitting on the balcony trying to enjoy some peace, I was literally bitten by a rat. Yes, a rat! I felt a sharp pain in my leg, and when I looked down, I saw it scurrying away in fear. I went straight to the reception, and when I asked to speak with the manager, I was met with unbelievable arrogance. He tried to convince me that what bit me was not a rat but just a simple squirrel. Obviously, that was not the case. To make things worse, the staff, along with the manager, started laughing at me and telling me that I was just imagining things. When I raised my voice and showed them the visible bite mark, they started stammering and told me they were doing me a favor by allowing me to be taken to a clinic at the hotel's expense for tests. So, during a vacation for which I paid a considerable amount, I had to leave my wife and child crying to be tested for various diseases. When I returned, they offered me another room, much higher up (be aware, the hotel is located on some hills, and it’s a long walk up ramps to get back to the room). I politely refused; I only had two nights left of my stay, and I could bear with it. But more importantly, I wanted to prove their shamelessness. So, the next evening, I returned to the reception with clear videos and photos of the rat that left deep marks on my skin. They admitted that yes, it could be a rat, but then shrugged and said, "Well, the hotel has trees, and we must understand that nature follows its course." As if that wasn’t bad enough, every evening after 6:00 PM, a hotel employee would patrol the area on an old motorcycle designed to make a hellish noise. I found out from some of the other guests that this person was specifically paid to scare away the rats that roamed freely through the courtyard and even in the relaxation areas. Apparently, the problem was not new at all, and the employees admitted that the hotel was, for the most part, infested with rats. The entire experience was a complete disaster, and the manager’s attitude made everything ten times worse. Instead of taking responsibility and trying to solve the problem, he chose to lie to my face shamelessly. The fact that a hotel that claims to offer comfort and relaxation leaves its guests exposed to such risks is absolutely unacceptable. If you’re considering booking a room here, I strongly recommend avoiding it at all costs. Not only does the hotel have a rat infestation problem, but the management is utterly disrespectful and unprofessional. Stay away from this place at all costs! I am attaching the footage where you can clearly see the hotel's logo as well as the rat roaming freely on the balcony, even attempting to enter the room PS - unfortunately I can't respond to the claims coming from the hotel, a hotel that keeps telling me about squirrels and chameleons despite the images. Because I can't upload larger images and clips, I ask everyone interested to write to me privately. And there I will send them clips of the rat entering my room, but also the images of the motorcyclist walking around every evening and making noise. No, it's not imagination, it's just a lack of respect from the hotel and an unimaginable treatment of a human being

Avi Goren

Excellent hotel ! Wonderful view, location, service, food quality. Very comfortable room❤️

Kevin Artherton

Just back after spending a week here with my grandchildren. Resort is superb. It's set in wonderful grounds right next to the beach. Beach and sea was wonderful. It starts of shallow for little ones then for the more experienced you can have a lovely swim. We all went snorkeling and saw fish and other sea creatures. Swimming pools are good again caters for all, with a great slide, which our guys thought was excellent. Food is good, good selection, meats, salads, cheeses and breads. Staff went above and beyond , friendly and polite. Entertainment team were fantastic and gave it their all to keep all entertained. Room was reasonably clean and of a good size. My recommendation, is to hire a taxi transfer rather than a coach. It takes at least an hour and a half from airport on very windy bumpy roads by coach. 9/10 👍

We are just leaving a 10 day stay here. We have had a wonderful family holiday. The rooms, food and service were all great. Particular mention to Eleni and her colleagues at the Ilios Pool Bar for making us feel so welcome and great service with a smile. The staff at the Spa were lovely also and well worth a visit. Thank you to all the team at Roda Beach Resort, we hope to be back next year 🎉

Richard Rees

Exceptional experience. Family holiday with young kids and elderly parents. Staff friendly and accommodating. Location perfect - 1 minute from beach. 10 minute walk to local town along beach for abled bodied. All inclusive food and drink options were incredible. Options and servings generous. Classic yet modern aesthetic. Accommodate was excellent, we had a partitioned family room for privacy between parents and kids. Patio to lawn, sports facilities and beach. No complaints at all, can’t say enough good things.

Jay

Went in May to June. Was in the quieter area at the top of the hill nearer the main entrance. Ideal for having the pool pretty much to yourself away from the slightly noisier area round the main pool. Very friendly service. Great food. Very clean resourt and in very good condition. Highly recommended.

Been here about 37 times since 1987. It was going downhill a bit since the original Mitsis passed. His partner took over but it was terrible. They were using cheap meat, lamb ,beef and pork. Fruit not good. Rooms were very tired with red and white wall paper and bed sheets the same. Makram is one of the reasons we keep coming back, one of the best personalities we have met on all holidays abroad. The staff here are fantastic and always have been. They needed to spend money upgrading the rooms,not many doors to the rooms were secure. Dining room looked really tired . Decided to try it again this year. Have been here 2 days so far and absolutely love it. There are new secure doors with key card entry into rooms. The rooms have been painted and decorated nice and bright, new panels on headboards wooden, new lamps LEDs ,new spot lights, new A.C unit which is fantastic and easy controllable, new curtains, new facings on cupboards and tops ,new linen ,pillows ,mattresses, new tables and chairs outside room,new mirror, new LG TV good size,new tables inside also,new mirror in hall,mini fridge good,drying rack outside, shutters for swimwear . Also retiled shower bay, new shower heads and controls very pleased with room. The dining room is absolutely fabulous, decorated nice and bright, clean and tidy, layout slightly different, food very good so far ,beach bar has some new chairs ,and they have also extended the pier to the beach bar level which is not usually a Greek thing. Internet great. Very good compliments to the new owner brothers. Fantastic job. Can't wait to return possibly later this year. Alastair and Val.

This hotel does not meet the standard of a 5-star rating. The rooms are in very poor condition, especially bathrooms, where plaster is peeling off. While ther is a wide variety of food available, the hotel location by the see is difficult to access do to narrov and steep roads. Additionally, the water in the see is very dirty in the affternoons.

Fantastic stay for our honeymoon, the hotel is beautiful as is the beach. The food is incredible, a testament to the catering staff. By far the best place me and my wife have stayed. A big thanks to the shuttle bus driver, a true professional and a really nice guy to speak to. Any information you need to know about travelling across the island , ask him. He is a credit to the hotel. All of the staff are wonderful here too, they made our honeymoon an unforgettable experience. Never mind staying here again, I could live here!!

We loved our stay at Pelekas Monastery as a family of four. Our family room which had a sea view balcony was actually bigger than we thought from the photos and had a partition door to divide the kids on their twin single sofa beds and us. The rooms are old and tired but it didn't bother us as we were out most of the day. Despite this, the cleaning service was great and the house-keeper was so lovely - our little boys loved her cuddles and kisses every morning as we left for breakfast. When we arrived at the restaurant, they also delighted in all the lovely waiting staff too. We couldn't have been made more welcome! The buffet food was fantastic and felt authentically home-cooked, including a lot of Greek cuisine, which we were very happy about. The pool definitely needed a good clean and was and was surrounded by the most beautiful setting. Which brings me to the beach which is amazing and clean. Perfect for families woith young kids.

I recently stayed at the Pelekas Monastery hotel, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. Here are my observations: Aging Infrastructure: The hotel appears quite rusty and old. Many fixtures and furnishings showed signs of wear and tear. It’s disappointing to see a 5-star property in this condition. Maintenance Issues: There were plenty of broken things throughout the premises. From poor A/C rust in toilets. Bed was not queen size it is only two single beds combined together so couple cannot sleep together basically one mattress higher than other. Broken sun-beds on the beach poor quality coffee... Limited Positives: The only redeeming aspects were the restaurant and some of the pleasant staff members. The restaurant offered decent food, but that alone couldn’t compensate for the overall shortcomings. In summary, I wouldn’t recommend the Pelekas Monastery hotel unless significant improvements are made. For a 5-star rating, guests rightfully expect a higher standard. Unfortunately, this establishment falls short.

Location is great, so is the beach. The food was delicious and varied, the Staff was friendly and always ready to help. The rooms could use a renovation to match the 5 star rating, but even so they were quite comfortable and the view certainly made up for it. Would go back again in the future :)

The hotel is okay but not the best. We came for a family holiday and whilst the facilities are modern and clean, the standard rooms are outdated and in need of some renovation and repairs, especially considering there was a black mould problem in the bathroom. Staff were very hit or miss and I was totally ignored by two different members of staff. Entertainment in the evening was nothing special, especially because the bingo went on for ages and was very mundane, although the Greek night was a lot of fun. We would have stayed for the karaoke and partaken but this was one of the occasions where I was totally blanked by a member of the animation team which upset me so we decided not to stay. The music in the evening was just too loud and I am glad we did not have children as it would have kept them awake and went on until 11pm. The photography team are also everywhere trying to convince you to do a photoshoot with them for free which makes you feel pressured into doing it, even if you don’t want to. Whilst I understand they may work off commission, we did not really want to be approached like this as we were just trying to have a relaxing holiday. The excursions were very good and a lot was offered for a very reasonable price. We took the trip to Palaiokastritsa which we would definitely recommend. The food was also good and there was a lot on offer. Personally, we would not return unless the issues with the rooms and staff were sorted out but if they were, we would be back.

A few oddities and electrical contacts in the room, but clean and neat. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful outdoors, nicely situated hotel by the sea. The water in the pool beside the bar was cool and refreshing. Could install an ATM in the lobby for convenience.

Room clean when arrived. We arrived late and restaurants they have were all closed however the reception gave us sandwiches, which was a lovely gesture and a first good impression. The room was clean and bed was comfortable, and every other day the cleaners gave fresh towels and bed sheets. The staff was lovely and I especially loved the Animation team. Food was delicious and the entertainment provided to us was amazing. I would definitely go there again.

Mareblue Beach is a lovely holiday resort in the Northeast Coast of Corfu. Very quiet area, but the resort has plenty for you to do. If you would like to explore more of the island there is a car hire place near the left side beach, the cars are around 40€ a day or you can hire for consecutive days at a cheaper rate. If you drink tea, I would take your own tea bags as the refreshments refill is mainly coffee. The resort staff are friendly and very accommodating, especially Freda the receptionist. The buffet meals are very much the same day in and day out. You have to book the better restaurants through their app, and I would do this as soon as you arrive as they become booked up quite quickly.

Wasn't good but wasn't bad. Room was small,the toilet door was slide open,slide shut and there's a ridiculously large gap to walk between the adults only pool and the kids pool. Really upsetting. The view was nice however! You could see the beach from the kids pool!
