Sunshine Corfu Hotel & Spa – June 2025 Stay
We stayed at Sunshine Corfu Hotel & Spa in June 2025. Admittedly, we were a little concerned beforehand due to some of the negative reviews, but overall we had a pleasant experience.
Rooms:
We stayed in one of the bungalows, which offered stunning sea views. The room was clean, well-maintained, and we didn’t encounter any issues during our stay.
Location:
The hotel is a bit secluded, but we were aware of this when booking, so it wasn’t a problem. The private beach was more than enough for us, it was cleaned every morning and the water was crystal clear. We even arranged a boat trip through reception and were picked up directly from the hotel’s beach. There's also a lovely walking trail that starts from the beach and takes you along the waterfront, passing smaller public beaches and eventually leading to the main beach at Nisakki.
Food:
This was the main letdown. Breakfast was varied and generally good, and lunch was acceptable. However, dinner was disappointing, limited choices and a lack of variety. We expected themed nights or live cooking stations, but there was nothing of the sort. We tried the Italian restaurant one evening, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to its name. We were served pizza on a Greek pita bread, which was far from the Italian dining experience we hoped for.
Overall:
We had a good stay. The location and facilities are appealing, and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, the food quality needs improvement, and the hotel itself could benefit from some updates. While it doesn’t look bad, it doesn't quite meet the standard of a 4-star resort.

Well, how to start… I wouldn’t come here again. The hotel has already had its glory days, but that’s not the main issue — they should really replace the animation team. At 11:00 PM they turn off the music and the lights. I recommend packing your own lights in your carry-on, because what happened here in the evenings was ridiculous. The so-called “program” — you’re in the middle of having fun, and then the animator comes, switches off the music, lights out, and that’s it, party over. Lights off and straight to bed. Honestly, never again, and I’d advise people to choose another hotel. This wasn’t even up to the standard of a 2-star hotel I stayed at in Crete. I have no idea where they get so many stars from. Have a nice holiday — just not at this hotel in Corfu.

We holidayed in this hotel for 2 weeks and I want to say that it was one of the best holidays of my life. The hotel staff is always ready to help you. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are spread out at a good time, there are different dishes but you will never be hungry. The rooms are always clean, every day towels, bed linen and floors are changed, for this I would like to thank the cleaners of this hotel! If you want to go on some excursion the hotel will give you such an opportunity. And of course the view from the rooms is just a fairy tale. If you want to go with children so there are animators who are happy to prepare some games for adults and children. For this holiday I want to thank all the staff of the hotel!

I decided to return to the sunshine for the second time and I must say that it is always a CRAZY experience! Friendly staff always smiling attentive to others! The location is super full of comfort for every need. The food is great in all the restaurants present. It breathes relaxing air and is perfect for unwinding from the usual routine.
A special thanks to Mr Panos Food and Beverage Director where with the wonderful kind and smiling team of restaurants and bars Katerina Konstantina Anastasia Dimitris Nikos they made us feel wonderful felt at home! we will never forget you. We will be back soon it is a paradise!

The hotel itself is okay , clean and comfortable enough for a short stay.
However, something that really upset me was the atmosphere in the mornings. Every day, we had to deal with a very negative attitude from Nikos. He was rude, not greeting guests with a simple “good morning,” and gave the impression that he was watching everyone eat “his” food. It created a very uncomfortable and unwelcoming start to each day. Hospitality is just as important as the room, and unfortunately, that was missing here.
