We found the hotel, location and food to be very good but do not go to this hotel in september if you are afraid of wasps, they were everywhere particularly around the poolside restaurant and lagoon pool holiday was spoilt by wasps!!
Great Holiday

The hotel was excellent the staff & services also. The food was some of the best I have ever tasted and plenty of it. They say they are all inclusive and they are. (Remember to ask for the list of drinks you can order from the bar). We went with our children & grandchildren and their was plenty to do for everybody. A nice resort with lots of cafs & bars (can be a bit expensive)Ask for a kettle for your room its free for your stay, also you can get towels (you just pay a deposit which you get back). The only thing I would comment on and others have before is that the beds in the rooms are not very comfortable, but the rooms are very clean and linen changed everyday. When booking I would request that you want to stay in the new part and check air con they don't have it all the rooms. I would def go back again.
Great Hotel, Lovely Staff

We stayed half-board in one of the bungalows on the lawn leading down to the beach. It was comfortable, spacious and the air conditioning worked fine. Don't go in the last 2 weeks in August as this is when the Italians descend and it's madness. Lovely new pool complex, FANTASTIC food (best we've ever had abroad). Superb full-english, continental self-service breakfasts, extensive self-service evening buffet.

Tip 1: the air-con goes off when you remove your key and leave the room so to keep the room cool, remove the magnetic fob, leave it in the switch and just take the key with you! ;)
Tip 2: Allow 3 hours for evening dinner as there are so many courses to be had! Arrive by 7pm and take a balcony table over-looking the bay - much quieter and more beautiful than the dining room.
Tip 3: Steer clear of the in-house Chinese' restaurant. It's Greco-Chinese not like Brit chinese at all (yuk!!!). Once tried, forever avoided.
SUGGESTION: If the hotel is reading this, change the chinese restaurant (which is usually empty because the food is BAD!) to a Greek mese-house style restaurant. It'd be much more popular and guests that love lamb Kleftiko or Souvlaki or Dolmades Avgolemono would be keen to visit more regularly.
-----------------------------------------------
Would I go again? YES, because the dining room food is fantastic (but NOT the chinese!)

Lovely setting

What a fantastic setting this hotel has, very large grounds which lead right down to the sea and small beaches, where there activities to hand. The restaraunt was fab the food was the best I have ever had on holiday and they were still bringing dishes out as the serving time was finishing.
The only problem we had was the air conditioning. When you switched the extractor on in the bathroom it tripped the supply which needed an engineer to come and reset it on the main board in the passage on our floor. This happened each time we were getting ready for our evening meal time.
When we both arrived and departed a porter would take your baggage on a trolley up and down the long hilly path to and from the main building to the rooms which were both in blocks and bungalow's scattered around the grounds. Overall a first rate restfull holiday.

I have been staying in this hotel 6 years now and each stay has been great .... but this time their had been over 100 new rooms built so this means 100 more families and the pool area and dining area is far too crowded, al the staff are great but the security guard is extremely rude!! I will not be returning to this hotel again!

Very friendly helpful staff good location right on the beach good variety of food we had a balcony overlooking the sea which was great. The swimming pool was clean and not crowded easy to get a sun bed. Moraitika was the next town and a good place to visit nice beach. Would I go back again, yes I would.

I guess I'm a bit biased, but I worked as an animator in this hotel all summer and had the best summer of my life. We worked so hard, very long hours and our team changed about a million times over the summer, but we all got on great and most guests seem to enjoy our entertainment for what it was, a bit of light-hearted fun! Hope u all enjoyed your holidays! Corcyra beach is in a beautiful location at the sea, and in the middle of a great resort. It is worthwhile going to the old town of Corfu for some culture, as well as visiting Issos beach near Moraitika - the most beautiful beach in the Island. The staff is mostly nice at the hotel and it is worthwhile joining in the activities every day - you will meet some great people, and if you are lucky, get a night out to Whispers or Treetops with the animation team!!
Enjoy your holidays!

I was a holiday rep for this hotel in 2002, the staff are fab, the entertainment was half and half depending on the night, quite amusing though! The annimation team were great, and the accomadation is comfy and clean. I lived in Gouvia for 4 months and made some great friends, even some of the guests I have kept in contact with! When your a rep, your job never stops, even if we were on a day off, we'd get asked questions etc, so just remember guests, if your going to go here, enjoy yourself but remember we need time off too you know!

Spent 13 days half board 03.10.05 till 15.10.05. Booked a bungalow with sea view, was really nice. Staff is very kind. Everything looks clean. I think there is a difference between the rooms in the hotel and the bungalows, bungalows are cleaner and bigger. Pools are good, especially the lagoon.

Top Local Tips for Corfu
airport in Corfu the airport in corfu was not very good .we were kept in a long queue outside for at least one hour in the heat of the day. It was the only thing that spoilt out holiday.And once inside we were very rushed because of the delay waiting outside, also a very long queue for somthing to eat and drink .just managed to get to the head of the queue when our flight number was called to go to passport control.. So if we went again I think we would get a taxi instead of waiting for the tour bus so we could avoid the rush for checking in.
fantastic scenery brilliant weather for children forfamilies with young children and people who enjoy beautiful surroundings may is the best time of year to visit corfu. the weather is perfect for the children as it hot but comfortable (still warm enough for mum to get a fantastic tan), and the surroundings are at their best with wonderful flowers and trees in every direction that create stunning views of this beautiful island.
May can be wet If you want wall to wall sunshine then don't go to Corfu in May. There is a reason that Corfu is a green island, it is because it rains there more than other Mediterranean countries. May can be both wet and cold. Another reason to avoid May is that Corfu is not really open to tourists until June.
