We liked the quiet relaxed peaceful atmosphere. It was very homely and safe. Leon and his family showed us wonderful kindness and was very welcoming. We would definitely stay here during our next visit to corfu 🙂

The apartment was basic but very clean and in a good location, close to the beautiful beach and some excellent restaurants. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. The apartment was fairly well equipped but a toaster would have been useful. The beds were very hard which we found uncomfortable but may have suited some people. Our main criticism is the pool area. It was not big enough for the number of guests and so was extremely crowded sometimes.

Quiet location.Within 3 mins walk of shops, cafes
Very good value for money accommodation/facilities/situated... PROS:- Offered glass of (his homemade) wine on arrival by owner, lovely. Owner, his wife and their adult son very helpful - printed our return boarding passes for us on their computer/printer. FREE wi-fi. Nice pool- hardly anyone using it. Plenty (free) sunbeds with no loud music-great. Family friendly grassed area around pool (children playing bat/ball). Studio had own balcony with table and 2 chairs. Lovely views (right next to the river- not really accessible) with plenty greenery around. Basic studio room - had a double bed and a single bed, overlooking the pool (No. 18). Very small basic kitchen area - very basic equipment|:- pans, cutlery, glasses, cups, plates etc. 2-ring top stove. Full-size fridge. Sink. Kettle but no toaster. Tea towel, scrub/sponge and washing up liquid provided. Bathroom-shower, toilet, sink, 3 mini soaps provided. Bar in reception - we didn't use it so can't comment. CONS:-Bedding and towels only changed once (mid-week). No toaster.

Friendly relaxing retreat.
Retuned here to this quiet and relaxing place, next to the river and only a few minutes walk to the beach or town center. Made to feel at home by the family. This is a good base for travelling to any part of Corfu. Apartment is compact, clean with a balcony. Comfortable clean beds, adequate kitchen facilities and good compact bathroom. Good aircon during a very hot week.

Worst hotel ever
Left without staying as grounds and hotel were run down and not as described. The hotel was not on the beach, the river looked muddy and the beach when reached was a small area of sand at the river estuary with a few restaurants accessed by a delapidated Boardwalk. We were not shown any of the hotel's advertised amenities and when we were leaving there was no one around we had to leave keys with another guest. We will fight for a refund, absolutely terrible stay clear.

La struttura si trova in un bel punto per andare al mare e per cenare la sera nelle vicinanze senza bisogno di utilizzare l’auto. Il tutto è un po’ datato , se si conosce bene bene l’arte dell’arrangiamento vi si può soggiornare .

Stanza silenziosa vicino al fiume
Stanza normalissima con piccolo angolo cottura (mai usato). Il complesso di appartamenti si trova nel paesino di Messonghi, molto tranquillo. Di fronte agli appartamenti scorre un fiume però nonostante questo non ho avvertito presenza di zanzare in camera. Letto abbastanza comodo, piccolo terrazzino che dà sulla piscina. Per il resto va benissimo per trascorrere una settimana di relax.

Sehr liebe und nette Familienbesitzer des Appartements, die ihr bestmöglichstes versuchen. Allerdings sind sie Möbel etc sehr alt und bieten kein Komfort. Bett wie ein Stein...Pool ok, aber drum herum auch sehr heruntergekommen. Neue Möbel und kleine Renovierung würde absolut helfen und der Gastfreundschaft gerecht werden.

Familiäre Unterkunft in Strandnähe
Im Vorfeld möchten wir euch mitteilen, dass wir zwei 18 Jährige sind und deswegen nicht die höchsten Ansprüche haben. Am Tag vor der Anreise habe ich bei der Unterkunft angerufen und ihnen mitgeteilt, wann unser Flieger landen wird, damit sie ungefähr den Check-in planen konnten. Mit dem Green Bus kommt man für 2,40€ nach Messonghi, was deutlich günstiger als jeder andere Transfer ist. In der Unterkunft angekommen, wurden wir von einem netten jungen Mann begrüßt, der sofort wusste wie wir heißen und uns zu unserem Zimmer führte. Wir hatten ein Doppelzimmer gebucht und fanden ein schickes kleines Zimmer vor. Es gab ein kleines Bad (Waschbecken, Toilette und Dusche), eine kleine Küche (geradeso ausgestattet für zwei Personen) und ein Schlafzimmer (Doppelbett, Kleiderschrank, Mini-Fernseher, Klimaanlage Tisch mit Stuhl und Nachtschränke), welches direkt mit der Küche verbunden war. Außerdem gab es eine kleine Terrasse mit zwei Stühlen und einem Tisch, auf der man sehr gut Essen konnte. Wir haben uns dann noch ein Auto bei "Corfu Plus" für 20€ pro Tag gemietet. Dieses konnten wir ohne Probleme auf dem Gelände der Unterkunft abstellen. Abschließend können wir sagen, dass diese Unterkunft zwar nicht die luxuriöseste ist, zum Schlafen, Kochen und Duschen aber allemale reicht.

SPERAVAMO MEGLIO.
La posizione dello Studio è molto buona perché è vicino al mare e al centro città. Le camere sono troppo piccole e i letti altrettanto. Il terrazzo dove mangiavamo era assolato e talmente piccolo che non entravano le sedie intorno ad un minuscolo tavolo. Il bagno era molto molto piccolo e stretto. La piscina dalle foto appare grande invece è piccola e non ben pulita. Non lo consiglio ad un amico. Prezzo qualità non combaciano.

nettes freundliches Apartment
freundliche Gastgeber. sehr hilfsbereit und immer zur Verfügung wenn etwas gemacht werden muss. Zimmerreinigung findet alles 2 Tage statt. ist in der Nähe vom Strand und Restaurants. Schöne Umgebung, jedoch empfehle ich einen Roller/Auto zu mieten um so die gesamte Insel zu nutzen und um an die Strände der Westküste (grosse Sandstrände) zu fahren. alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert!!
