stayed at the marina corfu for 11 nights at beginning of July. friends had recommended it and we weren't disappointed. asked for a sea/pool view and got exactly that. beautiful view. lovely albeit small beach which was a delight to swim in. if you go down before 08.30 you will have the cove all to yourself to swim in - crystal clear water. all pool areas regularly cleaned and staffed with lifeguards who are happy to teach young kids how to dive in. whole hotel is absolutely spotless and rooms are cleaned to a high standard every morning - no complaints at all. breakfast was outstanding - hot food, heated plates, great selection. we ate lunch at the pool bar most days - sandwiches, salad, burgers, hot dogs etc. dinner was on the whole of a good standard - nice salads, good veggie selection , varied choice which usually included a carvery, cheeseboard every night. included drinks were local brands which were fine. staff throughout the hotel were very friendly and worked very very hard. entertainment staff were great, plenty for the kids to do and as most of it was around the pool area, you are able to watch them whilst actually being able to relax and chill out yourself. however, no hotel is perfect and the only complaint we have is the SUNBED DRAMA every morning. the hotel locks up the sunbeds until 0900 every morning to try to avoid the usual booking sunbeds with towels overnight. but believe it or not people still go down to the pool from 0700 and pull plastic patio chairs over to the pool to 'book' their spot. this usually involves up to eight chairs lined up in the spot where they sit every day. at 0900 they then pull their sunbeds over and replace the chairs with the sunbeds. do they take the chairs back? of course not - they leave them lying around for the staff to do that - you selfish saddos you know who you are!! dont know what the answer is, there is plenty of sunbeds - hotel even brought in a whole pile of new ones when we were there. problem is people who want to sit in the same place every day. would we go back? if we wanted a relaxing family holiday which caters well for young kids then yes - on the whole outwith the hotel we found spain very expensive so until that changes we will probably go back to USA
