A nice 3-star hotel for the fair price - that would be my short summary.
The hotel is situated in a quiet village, and for me it’s a big advantage. There’s a free bus right from the hotel to the nearest small town Roda, but you can also walk (about 30 mins) or rent a car. Various souvenirs you can buy right at the hotel store.
The hotel territory is nice with well-kept swimming pools, the rooms are not very modern but spacious and clean. The staff is helpful and friendly. The hotel beach isn’t big enough to accommodate all guests, that’s why overcrowded, even in September there’re too many people. But there are a few more beaches around, both paid and free.
When it comes to food, it’s average and not various, but there’s always something to eat. Keep in mind that it’s a 3-star hotel, not a Michelin restaurant. The staples like Greek yogurt, olives, vegetables, feta, and cheese are always available. The snacks at the bars - pizza and gyros - are tasty.
As for me the biggest problem are smokers. In general smoking seems to be a part of the local culture in Greece, but it is so annoying when you want to relax, enjoy the sea breeze but can’t hide from this disgusting smell of cigarettes even whilst eating! There’s only one place with maybe 10 tables where smoking is not allowed. I believe it would be a huge improvement if the hotel designated non-smoking areas, particularly on the beach, so that everyone can enjoy their holiday comfortably.

The hotel is ideally situated right next to the beach, with the additional benefit of having its private section of beach & bar.
If the beach is not your thing or you fancy a change, the hotel has four swimming pools, each with plenty of sunbeds (including a bar at three of them).
Regarding the food, you won't go hungry - as it's available from 7 am until 9 pm. With choices of meat, fish, pasta and sauce, giros, pizza and fries to name a few of the items on offer.
The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble to them - including the rooms (which have amazing air conditioning) are throughly cleaned six days a week (excluding Sundays). Including changing the beds.
The two main questions are? Would I recommend the hotel to friends with family… and finally, would I re-booking? Absolutely.

We came from 26th Sept to 8th Oct.
3 adults and a 1 year old.
The entertainment was next to nothing! No day time activities etc. Apparently they had a cinema but was always empty, they have Greek dancing every Sunday which is OK and a DJ at certain bars but that is it!
The pools are absolutely freezing, which granted isn't their fault, however there was no pool suitable for very young children like my 1 year old son so he always needed to be held in the pool and couldn't splash freely like he wanted too as all pools too deep. Considering this is a family hotel I assumed they'd have pools suitable for all ages.
Our room was okay, we were in room 820 with a view of the Olympic sized pool, the sheets were not changed everyday like advertised, only the bins were changed daily and the only way I got fresh towels was to make sure they were all on the shower room floor. The shower floods to easily which is extremely dangerous and there was no kitchen area in the room with a kettle etc which was so disappointing seems as we always like tea on the balcony, and breakfast is from 8am so if you're an early riser you won't be having a morning brew!
The food was absolutely disgusting, it was the same all the time with only a few different bits and pieces, and only a few that were edible, the carbonara tasted like fish sauce and the bolognaise is the worst I've ever eaten. We ended up eating out, or eating the pizza and gyros from the snack bar which is actually decent.
The all inclusive alcohol list was absolutely pants with only about 4 or 5 drinks avaliable.
There was wasps everywhere, so pouring your own soft drink is an experience in itself!!
The staff at the main restaurant/bar were lovely and really interacted with my son which he loved. My son is afraid of dogs so whenever the strays were around they did their best to keep the dogs away from him.
There isn't much where the hotel is but they offer a free bus service into Roda town which is quick and convenient.
The beach is literally right outside which was really good as my son loves the beach ⛱️

I honestly can’t comprehend how can anyone rate this one as 5.
The main problem of this so called hotel i that it’s simple too big. The staff can’t cope with that and the results are horrible for the guests. Our room smelled like poo when we arrived and after a deep clean by the service it got only marginally better for like a day.
The drainage system is not existent really. When it rains even a bit, the whole hotel turns into a swimming pool. The surface floor is also not prepared to be wet(even that close to the pools) so you are sliding your way to eat something(food is not worth the risk).
And the food yea… as you probably read in other reviews the food is terrible. In fact it’s terrible to the point that we rented a car and escaped this hotel and eat something good for once. They serve the same disgusting thing every day. Dinner and supper is not even distinguishable from each other. Still, the breakfast is the worst part of the day for us.
All inclusive is also an overstatement at best. No drinks in pool bars, you can only order alcohol and then mix it yourself with a dispenser.
And if you have an allergy for wasps, you should definitely avoid this one.
Not wanting to waste any more time for this… just avoid at all costs. It’s not worth your money.

We are here on our last day and we can't wait to get home. The hotel area is massive, but not much to do here. Not any entertainment in the evenings and the food is horrible. Some staff here is not so friendly and can't even crack a smile to the guests which makes it not fun to be here. Cleaning of the rooms is really bad. Never emptied the trash can and no fresh sheets for a whole week. we are from the UK and it's only Germans in this hotel. We will come back to Corfu cause it is a lovely island but never this hotel again and never this area.
