Grecotel-Luxme Daphnila Bay Dassia

We had a lovely week in April at this superb hotel. The view from our room, a "Limited Sea View bungalow" was amazing and not "Limited" at all. We could see across the Ionian Sea to the mountains of Albania and Mainland Greece. The room was rustic chic, and very charming. The cleaners were very efficient and kept the room spotless. We were delighted not to have to wear wristbands to enjoy the Luxme AI package. The main Buffet offered a large variety of both hot and cold foods. A special mention to Angeliki who excelled at customer service and always had a welcoming smile. We also enjoyed the excellent Speciality Restaurants and would like to mention Costa and Meina who served us in the Taverniki restaurant. (Remember to download the App before you visit as you can book the Speciality Restaurants from seven days before your visit). We had a relaxing week, there was always a quiet spot with plenty of sunbeds to be found in the Beach garden area. Where there is a fully stocked bar, alongside a pizza kitchen and crepe and ice-cream stalls. We recommend taking the water taxi into Corfu Town. Don't forget to walk to the Ypapanti church on the water if you have a chance, it takes about fifteen minutes. In the opposite direction is St. Nicholas Beach which is also a fifteen to twenty minute walk. Oh, and the patisserie in the reception area at 15:00 every day except Sunday, is well worth a visit. Overall we had a superb time and look forward to a return visit when we can.

We just had one of the best holidays ever! This hotel is amazing from start to finish. As soon as we walked into the hotel we knew it was going to be great as the staff greeted us at reception with facecloths and drinks and took us a quick tour of the hotel. Our bungalow was really too class, we were amazed by the size of the room, it was huge. We had a huge bed with beautiful canopy over it. The room had a nice balcony with a view over the bay and right out to the mountains of Albania, it really was something special. Everything else about the room was great like the powerful shower, bath, mini bar, coffee machine and big TV. We spent our first few days around the pool sipping cocktails and eating from the pool bar. The pool area was great as there was a large outdoor pool and a smaller inside one for the kids to play in the shade. There was also a lovely little pool and loungers hidden out the front. Pool was well staffed with a pool attendant, people giving out towels and lovely bar staff doing table service. The pool bar did a great selection drinks and food, everything you would want really. Our next few days were spent down on the beach and this is where the hotel really shines. The beach, surroundings, bar and grass area is pure luxury. My family absolutely loved our time at the beach. It felt more like a 5 star resort. The beach area had everything and more like fresh towels, comfortable loungers, crystal clear water, beautiful grass and trees, pizza made fresh in front of us, massive drinks menu and I could go on and on. The hotel food was probably the best we have ever experienced in an all inclusive hotel and bear in mind I came here with a family of 5 picky eaters but they all loved it. The best thing about the hotel is definitely the super staff. From the reception to the bar staff and restaurants. They are just so nice and happy to help you with anything. Our daughter was not well and the staff had a doctor come see us within 15mins, I could not believe how well she was looked after. Even first thing in the morning the staff phoned us to check how my daughter was feeling. There's a pharmacy not too far down the road where we were able to get a prescription from the doctor. I have been travelling to different resorts with my family for years and this one is definitely the best. I really don't have one bad thing to say and everyone who was there at the hotel talked about how great it was too. I would recommend this spot and will be back again. So sad to be back home 😭

So I'm not going to write a huge paragraph but here are some pros and cons: Pros: Amazing, friendly staff Great cleaners Good location Nice views Good beach Well kept pools Cons: . Crowded, echos, full of noisy children . Breakfast, lunch and dinner queues are packed . The hotel rooms are very moldy and have stains in places . Mosquitos. So many mosquitoes. . The indoor pool is packed full of children and it's the only useable pool . The outdoor pool is colder than the sea . The food is not very good and takes "looks over taste" very seriously . The cues for the pool tables have no tips . Too many people crammed in one location . You can hear every little noise from the neighbouring hotel rooms . The rooms absolutely REEK . Theres a sewage problem with the bungalows and you can really smell it . The football pitch is pretty much destroyed . The tennis courts are full of sand, making it easy to slip over . Lifts are wobbly and feel unsafe . Its an incredibly long walk down to the beach . Sometimes, the sun loungers aren't set up properly, so when you sit on one it retracts and bangs you on the head . Wasp problem. There were about 7 drowning in the help-yourself jam . The mattresses are the cheapest thing ever, my "double bed" is just two single cheap mattresses crammed together, I can feel all the springs as well. . There's sand in the beds. . The non sea view balconys are just overlooking crowds of people, so it doesn't feel very private . Lack of privacy . Lack of a lot of things that a "luxury" 4 star hotel should have.

I would like to recommend this hotel to all tourists. perfectly located with all amenities to make the most of your stay. the advantage is the all inclusive in the main hotel area and also by the sea. hotel offers airport pick up so you don`t need a car! Very professional staff helped me adjusting my reservation as we had to leave before the end of the holidays. Hope to comeback soon!

Amazing hotel , staff are wonderful , location is stunning especially if you have a sea view room , the food is great in the buffet but absolutely exceptional in the alcarte restaurants the fine dining was our personal favourite, but we had a wonderful meal in all of them. We did the hotel boat trip which was great a lovely day out . We also used the speed boat to the old town which was a great service for the hotel to provide for its residents for a small cost . We never return to hotels as there are too many to try but this hotel provided us with such an awesome holiday we have rebooked again for next year .

Lovely bungalow with sea view, great food and lovely staff. I really enjoyed it. Didn’t bother me but, the pool area is quite small and was quickly filled even out of season when I went, but there is a lovely private beach. However, the beach is down quite a steep slope which I think caused other guests with mobility issues problems. Also, the outdoor pool isn’t heated, so in May, it’s very cold, in fact the sea is definitely warmer! No availability in restaurants even though I tried to book on the day I arrived, which was disappointing.

There is a recent review on here that pretty much sums up everything we felt about the hotel - fantastic location, great food and drink, spotless rooms and excellent staff - literally every staff member we interacted with was brilliant, I hope the management team realise what a good team they have! The only small thing that didn't quite click with us with the focus on the children's activities and just how many children there are. I appreciate that it must have an excellent kids club with lots of activities and that is why families come here, but as a couple (travelling with some other family members), we found just due to the size of the hotel that it was difficult to get any space/quiet from the hoards of kids! Just something to bear in mind - the hotel itself is really fantastic but if you want a week of peace and quiet this is (sadly) probably not the place.

I want to start by saying that 90% of stuff was great. So there are a lot of kids. there is ALWAYS one kid screaming. We went out of school holidays and it isn't adult only so ya know we were just hoping for the best but it is constant. The food is great, the service is fantastic, it's a lovely hotel, but the sky rooms are a bit meh and bare but hey you aren't in there that much. I probably wouldn't go back to this specific one but would go back to a GRECOTEL.

We were booked into another TUI hotel which was adult only with a sea view. For just a week. However got moved to here. The room over looked the car park. Couldn't open the balcony doors as the generator was going 24/7. A long hike to the beach if you can call it a beach. Some sand and a patch of grass and trees. Steps everywhere so no good for the infirm or wheelchair users. Hot Food was awful and warm. Salads cant be ruined. Small pool 45 sun loungers and 250+ rooms and bungalows that look like air raid shelters. We cut our holiday short by 5 days.
