  : Excellent breakfast including hot and cold options with homemade cakes every morning, there was always plenty to choose from and no queue. Pool was hardly used by guests. Very quiet hotel suitable for couples and older guests. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. You can hire cars on site and a travel shop is down the road. Convenience shop across the road. Kostas, the manager, was always friendly and happy to help. Very clean and tidy property. Felt very safe and peaceful. Would highly recommend.
  : This side of the island does not have sandy beaches so the beach described above is pebble beach. It is a couple of minutes walk away from the hotel. The superior room we booked should have had a kitchenette but we did not get it, it was not a massive issue for us as we ate out all the time, but bear this in mind it does not look like it is guaranteed. Did get the sea view though. Dinner was served at their family restaurant by the sea, beautiful setting but anyone with mobility issue needs to know it is a 600-metre walk along the road or a couple of minute drive away. No dinner was served at the hotel itself.

  : We visit the hotel in off-season in April. Not much guests, so quiet place. The breakfast was extremely delicious and the staff was super helpful. We talked about places to visit, restaurant recommendations and life on Corfu.

  : Quiet, clean, outside from busy part of the island.
  : The breakfast was kind of nice but bad at the same time. Choice of meat cuts was very bad. The croissant was just very bad. On one occasion the warm food was cold. Orange juice an insult to the island. We didnt understand why this kind of saving was necessary? The Hotel has a quality but the breakfast is more a quantity and should be addressed. If you improve the breakfast the Hotel will be super nice and deserve a 9 rating.

  : If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful holiday, this hotel is a good choice. The room was small, but we didn't spend much time in it, we didn't mind it. The welcome was nice, the owner was polite and even during our stay he often smiled at us. There is a large swimming pool, which was clean and there were many sunbeds. There is a shop and a couple of restaurants nearby. If you want to go to a bigger and sandy beach, you definitely need to rent a car. There is a lot of parking space in the hotel.
  : The room didn't look like on the photo and the concept of deep cleaning probably hasn't been heard in this hotel before. They cleaned the rooms every day, but if you looked under the bed or behind the curtains, there was a pile of dust. There were cups in the room, but they were dirty. Safe did not work. According to the description of the room we should have had soap and schampoo in the bathroom, but we got it only on request. The first evening we showered in cold water, as we were not informed that the boiler was not on and there was no one at the reception to help us with it. Toilet paper was replenished every day, but the towels were not changed even once. There is no laundry dryer anywhere, there is nowhere to hang up wet swimsuits and it happened to us that they didn't dry until the morning. The mattress on the bed is very hard, which I evaluate neutrally, everyone likes it differently, but my back was hurting the second day. The lamp was missing a light bulb.Breakfast is rich, but the quality of food is poor and every day there is the same choice, coffee without taste, in eggs we found shells 3 times, and I saw how in the kitchen they load pancakes with their hands. There are an awful lot of mosquitoes and wasps, which make your stay incredibly unpleasant, and at breakfast the wasps literally crawl into your plate and food.

  : The owner and family went over and above at all times to ensure that our stay was enjoyable. Got the sense that nothing was too much trouble for them. As we were half board our evening meal was served in the best restaurant in Boukari which was fantastic, family run and always a genuinely warm welcome every evening.
  : I cannot criticise anything because I feel that if there was anything I didn't like, the proprietor (Kostas) would endeavour to help us make better, so all in all have no reason to complain about anything
