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.

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 !

Do I think the "All Inclusive" is brilliant - no. What about the views, are they lovely - yes. What's the entertainment like in the hotel - there isn't any, you have to go down to the Poseidon Bar, where drinks aren't free but you supposedly get a discount.
All things considered would I come here again - no. Would I recommend it - no. Would I say it is 4* - no.

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.

Firstly I knew there is a steep hill as the hotel is at the bottom of this hill.
However..... what isn't known is the Complex is split into two. You maybe taken by car to the other complex. That's how far away from the hotel the second complex is. It's a taxi ride away with bags.
If you then want to stay at the top pool for the very very limited drinks and food you'll then have to walk all the way down for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and then end up walking all the way back. Not nice after a meal.
If you have any mobility issues you're stuck. When I say "Mobility" this would include small children, pushchairs etc. It's no small feat.
All inclusive? No.
They put all the entertainment down in the beach bar. So if you want to make the most of the "All Inclusive", you'll then have to take a walk back up to the hotel and then juggle wafer thin plastic cups all the way back to the bar. Small plastic cups so it's not worth the walk as you'll be and down every 15 mins or so. It's quite a little trick I would say to make you pay...
Or miss the entertainment as you'll be sitting in a empty restaurant alone drinking watered down drinks.
The bar staff at this beach bar take forever to serve you. So you'll wait up to 30 mins for their attention and by this time you'll go to the bar yourself to be told they'll get to you and return to your table. As this point you'll be giving up. There wasn't even a discount as promised for hotel guests and it's UK prices plus some.
Snacks at the pool are Left out all day ham and plastic cheese sandwiches and some sponge cake. That's it. No selection. And the sandwiches are always stale. But there's nowhere else to seek snacks unless again you want to pay for crisps at the shop.
The food however when served on the Restaurant is very good. Plenty of selection and fresh.
I got no discount for sunbeds. I was told the price is for everyone.
I was left wondering what I had paid for. It appears a room and 3 meals as I ended up paying for everything else.
My advise is don't come here with children. Apart from a beach there's nothing else here. And you'll end up paying for drinks as the walk just isn't worth the effort for some drinks at the "all inclusive".
Hire a car. However, again if you get back early you just won't get a parking space anywhere near the accomadation as its rammed with holiday makers from all over the island between 10am and 6pm. It's chaos. They park anywhere and everywhere and it's a narrow road.
Would I stay here again? No. Only because there's far better places at cheaper prices offering more than what they supply here. The only positive was nice food at meal times. The view is good but not amazing as some claim. The negatives outweigh the good. Its not awful here just not good enough to warrant a return.
Did I enjoy? Yes. I enjoyed the holiday as we hired a car to get away from the hotel.
