Was very dated, staff was fabulous and beach was great and views amazing from my win up graded sea view that I paid for🤔. But location and bar on beach was just brilliant we loved it. Breakfast was great and couldn’t fault it and evening meal was great though hoped for full Greek menu and was few none Greek foods that wasn’t what I expected. We thought holiday was amazing overall but feedback needed mentioning. For short break I’d definitely return to location as taxi easy to sort via hotel which I couldn’t honestly fault

This is not a 5 star hotel. This is a 3 star hotel. The food is average. Our room was spacious with a good sized balcony. The view from the balcony is superb. Out shower leaked onto the floor most days, the bath took ages to fully empty (from the shower). There is a constant damp smell around the accommodation. The towels were passed there sell by dates. The beach is superb. The sunbeds on the beach are a disgrace most have rips in them, they are old and uncomfortable. The pool area is excellent, the pool was spotless and the sunbeds are far more comfortable. The dining area looks new and is excellent. The majority of staff are excellent, especially the restaurant, beach bar, beach area and cleaning staff. Lots of cats everywhere but not an issue for us. It is very quiet and out of the way hotel so if you want to travel I suggest a car hire. Corfu time is certainly worth a visit. Overall a very good trip but let down by the hotel, I reiterate it is not 5 star.

Overall we had a great time. Staff was nice and friendly accommodating. A nice variety of food options and eating times. Definitely suggest all inclusive verses half board. There is only one main restaurant that's included, which served good food, that being said, there is no TV channels other than local Greek. The facilities is a little older but price wise was perfect. The staff makes up for the deficiencies. Out door dining has beautiful views but the flies, bees were a problem. If you eat outside at sunset you will experience mosquitos also, not to mention there are several cats that roam around outdoor dining area, which seemed to be the norm in Greece, again overall we had a great time. The views are especially breathtaking at sunset! We recommend throwing a few DVD's in your luggage in case of inclement weather, they did provide DVD players, which was not anything we expected, there was no way to stream on the TV. We would definitely return. 🌸

Our second time at hotel this summer. May and august. Was on half board. Food was great, wine relatively cheap (£5 a small bottle), waiters very helpful and friendly. Weather was ace, so was the beach. Only downside is city tax of £10 per room per night, a recent introduction by hotel

I was very disappointed with the cleanest of the rooms and bathroom. I paid all inclusive rate but it was limited to only one restaurant for breakfast lunch & dinner. And on second night i was told that i have to pay for my drinks after 10 pm. No entertainment. For the $ that I paid not worth it at all. Never going back there.

Really lovely site & position on the beach- only a few steps down from the pool level. Sea & pool lovely temperature and depth just to walk in and feel safe. Spent a lot of time in the water was so lovely- even a sunset swim after dinner. Always enough sun loungers available by pool & sea, never was without at any time of day. Lovely snacks to buy by the pool. On half board- glad we were- the drinks on offer were often just watery & flavourless. As we had to pay- we bought from the shop on site & Pelekas village supermarket. Far cheaper way to do things! The breakfasts were lovely- fresh & plenty of choice. The dinners a bit mixed- nice salad/ pizza/ chips/ fruit but rubbish fish & veg offerings… made me ill on the last night. Room was fine but SMALLER THAN EXPEDIA STATED! Paid more to have a king bed, double signed, and was supposed to be a second sofa bed… thought would have somewhere to sit, but no - was tight with the 2 doubles. Shower falling off the wall , curtain hanging on, and marks on walls…so agree with other write ups- needs a bit of updating, but all ok. Only provide 2 coffee pods a day- bit stingy for the price of the room. Would come again but definitely only on a special deal- not worth the top price. But this is better location than other hotels- Glyfada beach next door is similar but much more age 20-30 party bars and busier, so not for us. Definitely Pelekas is the best bay!

Lovely spot by a beautiful beach. Lift from main areas to pool area, steps down to beach beyond, but can be accessed by the road down. We were on All Inclusive, all are local drinks / "pretend Coke etc;-). Orange juice not freshly squeezed. You could buy "the real stuff "! Also,food only available at main restaurant for AI, food anywhere else had to be purchased. We cruise, and they offer AI or premium AI - costs a bit more, but you can get "the real drinks ". Maybe this could be offered, and also include a lunch at the pool bar( even if it costs a bit more). Air con could be better in the room, we didn't seem to be able to adjust it. Our room was large ( junior suite), with large balcony, but no shade for the day. Additional shade for near pool /seating area would be good - few large shrubs/ trees in pots maybe! Hotel provided free shuttle to top of the hill(it's a steep one!) to coincide with local bus times into Corfu which was excellent. About 30 minutes to Corfu,. 5 euros each for an all day ticket, fantastic value. You can walk to Pelekas Village from the bus stop. 10 minutes or so, few bars, small supermarket, couple of shops etc. Overall we have had a lovely stay here, felt linger than a week. Few small improvements could be made. As with many AI, food ok, but could be improved on- not just us, spoke to others who said the same). If you want somewhere to chill, and are not planning on doing much, it's ideal.

The property is beautiful and the staff is wonderful, we had a wonderful time. We were surprised about the journey to the hotel - they offer transportation (for a fee) but we had a rental car and the drive to the hotel is very windy, mostly downhil and has many blind curves which we were unaware of. We were concerned about getting back up hill with luggage but it worked. There are two ways to get to Pelekas, the shorted is easier and less stressful, than the 4 minute longer journey. pray you don't encounter cars in the opposite direction. The property offers parking but availabilty is limited. We also didn't realize they offer all inclusive - we received breakfast AND dinner which was a nice surprise and the offering is extensive and tasty, offering something for everyone. The rooms offered beautiful views but were dated. The AC took time to kick in recommend leaving the key in as it doesn't work well if it is turned off and back on. Furniture; couches and beds were not very comfortable and although bathrooms are roomy, the shower is high to climb into if you're older and allows water to spill into the bath if you're not careful. As I said, we had a lovely time, were sad to leave, but it wasn't a 5 out of 5 for us. More information on reaching the property and amenities would be great.
