We are on our last day of ten and have had an amazing stay. We have a sea view bungalow with amazing views. The room is basic but we'll equipped and comfortable. The staff are great and friendly and welcoming. The restaurant is fantastic. The beach is fantastic for swimming and snorkelling. This is a great base for visiting other areas of the island and trips into Corfu. The setting of the hotel is beautiful and peaceful and it feels like a home from home. Would absolutely recommend this place and would love to come back again. Thank you Aeolos staff for a wonderful, much needed holiday.

We (7 of us) had a truly delightful stay at Aeolos Beach Resort, and there are so many positive aspects to share about this place!
First and foremost, the resort is impeccably maintained, and the staff's hospitality is top-notch. Their helpfulness and warm welcome made our stay all the more enjoyable.
The all-inclusive dining experience was a pleasant surprise, and it extended even to the beach restaurant and bar, making it incredibly convenient. With two à la carte restaurants, there were options for those seeking a different culinary adventure.
The rooms were not only well-appointed but also kept spotlessly clean. Finding a large bottle of water in the fridge upon arrival was a thoughtful touch. We stayed in a bungalow with a sea view at the top of the resort, and while the terrain is quite hilly, the resort offers golf buggies or vans to shuttle you between reception and your room if needed.
The lagoon pool, although initially chilly, quickly becomes refreshing. We took advantage of swimming in the sea and enjoyed some snorkeling too.
For practical matters, it's good to know that you can rent an iron and ironing board from reception for a €10 deposit (in cash), and you can also request a better hair dryer for those with long hair, no deposit needed. Additionally, obtaining poolside towel cards from reception for a €10 deposit (refundable in cash) is essential. The option to change towels at the beach is convenient.
In terms of location, it's suitable, especially if you have a hire car. The bus stop is conveniently located at the bottom of the driveway, and the excursion guy nearby is a great resource for tours. While Corfu Town is easily accessible by bus, it's not safe to walk there due to the road's condition. Taxis can be expensive, so the bus is a more economical choice.
The spa amenities are worth a visit, and there's even a free sauna available if you remember to book ahead. While the nearby beaches may not be the most picturesque, the resort's overall experience compensates for it.
Lastly, the only downside seemed to be the presence of wasps, especially attracted to meat. However, as long as you avoid eating meat outdoors, they shouldn't pose a major issue.
In summary, Aeolos Beach Resort offers a great holiday experience, and it's no surprise that your son loved it so much he returned a few months later. It's a well-maintained and welcoming place that provides a memorable getaway on the beautiful island of Corfu.

Great experience with two small kids. Nice, calm, quiet. The front desk and the stuff is extremely helpful and speaks good English. The food is of high quality and fresh. The location is great with convenient connection with Corfu Town either by bus or rental car.

The staff were very good, helpful and pleasant. We asked for a room change due to the number of steps, they went out of their way to accommodate us The whole hotel is spotless. Rooms are pretty much similar to a travel lodge layout but with gorgeous views! Food can be a bit repetitive but would definitely recommend booking into the 2 restaurants. The hotel is spread out over a steep hillside so might be difficult for the elderly. However there are buggy's which will give you a lift anywhere in the hotel grounds. If you are a beach lover this is not the place for you. It is just a narrow strip really. However the sea is beautiful and boat and car rental is just across the road.

Had an amazing stay at this place. There are 2 pools and a private beach with plenty of sunbeds to soak up the sun. The food is excellent with more than enough choice to tempt everyone. There is a Greek restaurant beside one of the pools and a Mediterranean restaurant beside the beach, you are able to book a table at each of these once during your stay and they were both excellent. The main buffet restaurant was also great. There are several bars around the complex and also a couple of snack bars, so plenty of choice for the all inclusive package. The resort is on a steep hillside and therefore might not be suitable for those who have difficulty walking, although there are golf buggies running throughout the day to take people around the resort if needed. There are regular buses that stop outside the main gates going to either Corfu Town or Benitses and you can buy return tickets from the hotel shop. Staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay and helped to make our stay very relaxing and enjoyable. We will definitely return here!
