Sunshine Corfu Hotel and Spa

Just come back today from a week at this hotel . We had a bungalow which was spacious and clean . The bathroom and shower was the best! The hotel is lovely and the views are beautiful. The private beach has a lift going down to it . The water is crystal clear and the fish come feed from your hand. The staff at the hotel can not do enough to help and make every day enjoyable. The bar staff and animation team are just fabulous! We didn’t really enjoy the food , they could have done with more options for the children . We stuck to the snack bar which was kebabs every day but was the nicest food available to us. Lots of salad and chips. Over all we had a great holiday , I would recommend this hotel based on the views and the staff made our experience what it was. The swimming pools are clean and good temperature. Don’t listen to the bad reviews.

Don't understand those who writes bad opinios. The hotel is not new but the price also is not the highest. The views were amazing, a clean and big beach with lot's of umbrellas, where u can get by a lift. The room was cleaned everyday perfectly and the towels changed regularly. The food was very tasty- everything prepared as in a good restaurant. There were lot's of dishes and the desserts really tasted perfectly. Cocktails and other drinks at two bars, one at the pool. A snack bar at the pool. An Italian restaurant at the territory with sea views and tasty Italian food. A separate word about the staff of the hotel: lot's speak a few Languages, everyone speaks English. Everyone's ready to help and is very polite. The manager is at his place- always checking if everything is OK in a restaurant or in a dining room, comunicates in a very polite manner and is always ready to help.

We arrived at Sunshine Corfu at around 10pm and our party of 10 were greeted by two receptionists and welcome drinks and food (as we had just missed dinner time). Staff were friendly and check-in efficient. The reception desk is located on the first floor, with a large staircase going down to the second floor where theres a bar and entertainment takes place. As it was the beginning of the season, the hotel was quiet and so initially there was a lack of atmosphere but there was a quiz taking place on the second floor. A member of staff carried our suitcase to our room and showed us how to use the air conditioning, which I really appreciated. The room and en-suite was clean but somewhat dated. The balcony was very large and the view breathtaking. The shower is a shower head over a bathtub, I personally would have preferred a full shower cubical but the water pressure was great. Initially, the bed seemed very firm but I slept great. The TV in the room was huge and had a few news channels in English and a channel showing English movies on the night. The mini fridge had a free bottle of water inside, it would have been nice if this was replenished daily. There was also no coffee/tea making facilities. I really enjoyed the food. Breakfast could have had more variety but lunch and dinner was great. Other than the pasta options, I don’t think I ate the same meal twice during the week. The beer was excellent but the wine not so much. The staff were friendly and on top of it with removing empty plates and clearing the tables. The dining room has beautiful sea views. The bars offered beer, wine, spirits and 6 cocktails all inclusive. The outside area has so much potential. The hotel is located on the side of a cliff so there’s a lot of stairs but two lifts that get you from the beach to bottom pool and bottom pool to top pool. There are two pools and a private beach. We only used the bottom pool which had a pool bar. The pool was adequate. The beach was lovely. The hotel has a gym but it was being renovated during our stay, which my boyfriend found disappointing. The hotel was very quiet but the staff tried their best to keep us entertained, there was entertainment on every night. This ranged from live music, quizzes, karaoke and bingo. I really enjoyed my stay. The hotel was clean, the staff friendly, efficient and tried their best. The view from our room incredible and the food/drinks lovely. The majority of the negatives came from us visiting the hotel early in the season. This hotel has potential.

The hotel has potential it is in a quiet location with great views. We stayed in the bungalow with sea view room 1229. Maintenance very poor by the builders. A gap in the tile in the shower and old electric wire exposed. TV had a crack and not working reported on same day was not fixed. Wardrobe space is a shelfing unit with 2 drawers and old safe. Outside balcony requires a few holes to be filled in. The pillows are hard. The cleaner kept our room nice and clean. The snack bar near the swimming pool area the food is ok I preferred the food in the main restaurant more choices and it did mean taking the lift to the second floor. The hotel is upside down reception is at the top on first floor and rooms go down 8th floor and outside bungalows. I enjoyed the food mainly Mediterranean salads, chips, Italian cuisine and grilled meat and fish. I believe the hotelmis under new management and improving. It would be a great hotel if the staff are paid and hotel is maintained. On the Tuesday staff went on strike because they had not been paid for 3 months. There was no breakfast or cleaning on the day. The bars was kept open for drinks and hot drinks. The Spa is run by a different company and they rent the space at the hotel and same with the shop. I would say bring your own beach towels because on busy days they don't have any towels available. We tried the pizza restaurant and it was the same staff. My husband said it was the best Pizza it must have been good. There are restaurants, bakery and a supermarket outside the hotel. This was the hotel given to us by love holidays last minute because the hotel we originally booked the company went into liquidation. Hotel entertainment from 9.30pm is ok. Could be better? The boat trip by Antonio can be booked at reception. He takes you to a cove and does the best BBQ and to Kassiopi and swimming in a small cave area. We took the bus to Corfu Town which was an experience. You need to let the conductor know when purchasing tickets which stop you want to get off! Otherwise they will take you to the last stop. I hope the new management takes care of their staff and the hotel because the hotel's location is brilliant.

We came here with 3 children ages 14, 9 and 6 for 10 nights and all I can say is wow! The kids loved every second of it and didn’t want to come home! We arrived at 1am and there was plates of food waiting in the room which we were grateful for as the children where starving. In the first day we requested a room change as all 5 of us where sharing one room and we where upgraded to a newly refurbished bungalow with no extra charge which was perfect with a seperate room for myself and my partner and a room for the children plus a furnished balcony over looking a beautiful view of the sea. All the staff are lovely especially the man on the pool bar (I can’t remember his name) and the managers wife who was lovely. The entertainment staff were amazing with the children and always got them involved with the discos, karaoke ( I definitely took over that ) and bingo in the evening plus waterpolo and darts in the day at the entertainment.. illyas from the entertainment always got us up dancing and the girls always had the kids running around including playing tag with them. The hotel was always clean and tidy and cleaners came each day to replenished towels and change bedding etc. I can honestly say this has to have been my favourite holiday and I go abroad twice a year! We will definitely be returning! There is also a father and daughter that come to the dock every morning and take you over to Kassiopi for 25 euros each which was a lovely trip and they stop at a beach on the way back for drinks and swimming. There is also a bus directly outside the hotel that takes u into Corfu old town for 2.40 each. All in all it was a fabulous holiday so thankyou to all the staff for making it perfect!
