I really wanted to give this hotel 5* but there were just a few small things that unfortunately made me go with 4*. Firstly, the hotel is lovely and the staff are all excellent. Upon arriving, you’re greeted with 3 welcome drinks and a cold towel and the reception is beautifully decorated. We upgraded our room to a suite with whirlpool and upon checkin, they’d re upgraded us to a deluxe suite which was great. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of choices and plenty of staff so there isn’t much waiting around for plates to be cleared or anything to be ordered. The only things that let the hotel down for us were: -we booked into the a la carte restaurant and I think mostly our fault that we didn’t look at the menu beforehand, but, it’s very expensive for what you get even though it is fine dining. We ordered the spinach and filo pastry (expecting parcels) and received a bowl of spinach, with feta in and a filo cracker. The staff were understanding and we actually had this removed from the bill. Our main course was good but look into the menu before booking. -We ate at the pool bar on the first day and ordered 2 different things and both weren’t good at all. This is what really let the hotel down as you’d expect a much better menu and quality. The prices I thought were a bit unreasonable also (we ate across the road every day thereafter) -We booked onto the boat trip and even though it was confirmed by email and at check in, when we arrived our names weren’t in the list which caused a few delays but this was quickly resolved. The boat trip is 100% worth doing at the extra cost in comparison to the other boat trips you’d see. Very comfortable boat and didn’t feel full even though it was full at around 40people. Unlimited drinks all day and a great lunch box. The taxi service at the hotel is also good and we used them every day. It’s 18€ into Benitses each way and 15€ each way into Moraitika and Mesonghi where we had some great meals. To get into Corfu old town is 45€ each way. The beach area is nice although I’d say it’s not ‘private’. It’s private sunbeds. So you’ll still have people walking past to get to the watersports hut and the other side of the beach. But there always seemed to be beds free. You’ll also never have to worry about getting a bed by the pool, the busiest it got was probably about 1/4 full at any time of day and the pool is a great size! Overall, a lovely stay and we left very relaxed. It’s just a bit remote if your food isn’t included and we spent quite alot on taxis.
