Large families frequent this huge chain resort on the northeast end of Corfu that's especially popular with Germans. The all-inclusive property offers a wide variety of entertainment and sporting options, including bike rentals, multiple play areas for children, an outdoor amphitheater, and several pools. Some guests have remarked that those without kids may find the entertainment and the grounds too child-oriented to be enjoyable. The 640 rooms are set in a half dozen or so two-story white concrete buildings along a strip of beach near a protected cedar forest.
Scene
Sprawling family resort wedged between hills and sea
This large resort may give pause to those with special mobility needs; it's spread out over a fairly big area and getting around the property can take a while. Because the facilities and activities are focused on children, the hotel primarily attracts families. Some guests have noted that the resort is particularly popular with German and, to a lesser extent, Russian families.
Location
Situated between the sea and the rolling hills of eastern Corfu
The resort is located directly on the sand, on the opposite side of the island from Corfu Town and the airport (both about a 45-minute car ride away, with no public transportation). A small beach village is within a 10-minute walk from the resort and has a few dining options, but the resort is otherwise removed from most outside activity.
Rooms
Minimal decor in plain rooms with ceramic tile floors
The rooms here are plain and somewhat aseptic, with little attempt at matching decor. Most guests have reported that the mattresses are comfortable and the rooms clean; gripes have included that pillows are not comfortable and that the rooms can get too humid. All rooms have a small desktop LCD TV as well as air-conditioning; many have a balcony with a table and chairs. Standard rooms have cabin showers while suites have bath/shower combos.
Features
A large fitness center, indoor and outdoor play areas for children, four pools, and shops
The entertainment options here seem nearly endless, particularly for children. An extensive video-game arcade joins several outdoor play areas and a couple of trampolines. As is often the case at large resorts, guests tend to reserve lounge chairs near the four pools and on the beach early in the day. There are three bars and two large restaurants, one offering a la carte dining, the other with a buffet. Guests have remarked that both can get hectic some of the time. Wi-Fi is only free in common areas and even then, it can be spotty.
