The 37-room Eriva Hotel is a two-and-a-half pearl property in the quaint village of Acharavi in Corfu. The property is popular with families and older couples, who can enjoy the heated swimming pools (one for adults and a decent size pool for kids) in a quiet environment and walk to a pebble-lined beach or the sleepy village. Breakfast and Wi-Fi are free but expect to pay for air-conditioning in the rooms. Apartments or studios sleep up to five and come standard with kitchen facilities and balconies. Cleanliness isn't an issue but furniture and decor does look dated and bathrooms are small for five people to share.

Scene
Family-run, seaside hotel
The lobby inside Eriva Hotel looks like a comfy living room. There are several large and worn sofas plus a huge flat-screen TV and shelves lined with novels and guidebooks. Outside, white railed balconies are covered with green ivy and flowering bushes. The scene at the swimming pool is laid-back without a rush for sun loungers. Music is played at the adjacent pool bar and occasional evening entertainment is on the quiet side. The pebbly beach is accessible via a private path but most guests at Eriva Hotel stick by the pool.
