The first impression you get of this hotel is the reception. Big shout out to Christopher who seems to really care about his guests. Gave us brilliant directions, advice and general wellbeing. Everytime we passed him, he was checking up on us and remembered every detail. Even when we stumbled back in from Kavos, he ensured we had enough water before going off to bed. All of the staff were great. You were never without drink in hand, anything was never too great an ask. One night I forgot a jacket and Christina offered a shawl! We spent one night away and she asked what we’d been up to and genuinely seemed interested. This is definitely the best service we’ve received anywhere, so thanks again to Christopher and Christina. The rooms were spacious and gorgeous, I didn’t think it could be any cleaner until the next day when it got cleaned - it looked like it was never slept in. It’s hard to differentiate food night to night, but they still managed to have something different each time. The only thing that could make this hotel any better was if they could offer a daiquiri on the cocktail menu, but it didn’t matter once I tried the others.

My stay was exactly what I was looking for: a relaxing "drop and flop" holiday where the focus is on unwinding rather than sightseeing or nightlife. GUESTS: A mix including groups of women on girls' trips, mainly aged 35+, some younger couples (early 20s), and multigenerational family groups (over 18s only), a couple of groups of female friends (18-22) who I think were hoping for a livelier stay given its part of the Jet 2 "vibe" collection. LOCATION: If you're looking for bars, clubs, and plenty happening in the evenings, this isn't the destination for you, although the DJs from 2pm-6pm was great. It's not where I'd come for a girls party holiday. There is very little in Kavos itself which is really run down. You'd need to go to Corfu Town (2 hours via bus) for sightseeing and bars/nights out. There's a boat trip over to Paxos. FACILITIES: The hotel has some good touches that elevate the experience. The Rituals toiletries in the rooms, and the comfortable sunbeds make it easy to spend entire days by the pool or sea. The most sought-after sunbeds by the pool bar with the DJ tend to be claimed early, so it's worth getting up in good time if you have a preferred spot (some are taken pre 7am). STAFF: The service throughout my stay was great. Christina (the manageress), George and Voula seemed to be everywhere at once and worked tirelessly to ensure guests were looked after. They were consistently friendly, kind, efficient, and a real asset to the team, nothing was ever too much trouble for them. HOTEL SUGGESTIONS: There are a few areas where the hotel could improve. At check in, advising how to book the a la carte with the option to book. Showing you into your room with instructions on how to operate the fan, explaining the towel process. I only discovered later that much of the hotel's information is available through the TV, so a note directing guests to this would be useful.Small arrival touches such as face cloths along with the welcome drink could make the first impression feel even more special. ALL INCLUSIVE PACKAGE: You have to pay extra for bottles of water from the pool bar through the day, which based on my other 5* all inclusive experiences is disappointing. They do provide water for free from the mixer tap. Your fridge is only restocked twice during a week stay (excluding water) and the ramge of drinks in the fridge are limited versus other 5* hotels. I was also disappointed that mojitos and daiquiris are not on the cocktail list (first world problems!). FOOD: There's a range of different meat choices on the buffet each night, however it does become quite repetitive. The food is tasty, but a wider range/variety of options would be great. It would also be good to see the chefs behind the buffet. At breakfast, an omelette station would be a great addition. Food was never really that hot, it was usually just warm. The hot food choices do sit under hot lights, but not every dish has a lid. Overall, this is a peaceful and restful hotel with excellent staff, thoughtful service, and a relaxing atmosphere. For anyone seeking a genuine opportunity to switch off and recharge, it delivers exactly that.

“Amazing food and staff”

Me and my partner stayed in Cabo for 10 nights. The food is absolutely amazing! We ate more food than we have ever eaten before. Everything is super tasty. The staff honestly cannot do enough for you, they are so kind and complimentary. The only thing I found let it down is the music is quite loud… Più

Me and my partner stayed in Cabo for 10 nights. The food is absolutely amazing! We ate more food than we have ever eaten before. Everything is super tasty. The staff honestly cannot do enough for you, they are so kind and complimentary. The only thing I found let it down is the music is quite loud until late(sometimes on until 12:30am) but there isn’t really anything happening entertainment wise, it’s just music playing to no one. We did go early in the season so we can’t hold it against the hotel. The rooms and the hotel are exceptionally clean and well kept. A recommendation I have is that if you’re going to stay here, maybe hire a car as the hotel is quite far away from other things like Corfu old town and the water park, and taxis can be quite expensive!
