I want to write about the "highest quality of services" provided to our family by Coral on vacation in Greece. I have been traveling with my husband for many years. We visited 15 countries of the world. We love the East very much. We heard a lot about the amazing island of Corfu, which is considered the most beautiful in Europe.

I want to write about the "highest quality of services" provided to our family by Coral on vacation in Greece.
I have been traveling with my husband for many years. We visited 15 countries of the world. We love the East very much. We heard a lot about the amazing island of Corfu, which is considered the most beautiful in Europe. So we went to see this wonderful island with our own eyes. We intentionally chose a mountainous area with its amazing bays and islands. We dreamed of seeing the whole island, visiting the temples. . . With such bright hopes, we flew to Corfu on 09/07/16. flight 7515.
. The hotel is located in a fabulously beautiful place - it is a small bay surrounded by mountains with grottoes and caves, stretching far into the sea with bizarre green islands. The purest transparent water and a small pebble beach with paid sunbeds. Beach towels are not provided at the hotel. Small one and two-story houses are located on terraces, start from the beach and go high into the mountains. Therefore, it is physically difficult to reach "cheap" rooms.
Trouble began as soon as we arrived at the hotel around 10.00. Until 12.00, 12 tourists from Russia from different tour operators gathered at the reception. After several hours of waiting, we realized that Russian tourists were not held in high esteem here, since foreign tourists were settled immediately, and for us everyone "cleaned" the rooms. Time passed. After lunch, our company began to insistently demand check-in at the hotel. At 15.00 we were told that there were no places in this hotel and 12 Russian tourists were taken by bus far from the sea to a 2-star hotel. Why did it take so long to play this comedy and mock people when it was known in the morning that there were no rooms in the hotel?
On the morning of September 8, the whole company returned to the "Blue Princess", where yesterday's procedure was repeated. Just a real "Groundhog Day". Among us were two women who were settled in this hotel for three days two years ago. Tour operators were called to help us settle in the hotel.
At the third hour we received the coveted keys to the room. The house was not so high. The window and the glass door "luckily" looked at the wall of the house, located 2.5-3 meters from ours, so that the sun never looked into our room. The room was always cold and damp. The bed was damp. All our outfits quickly became damp, towels did not dry out, and swimsuits were constantly wet. The room was not cleaned every day! In 10 days, completely wet towels were replaced only twice at my urgent request! On the eve of departure, the sheets were changed for the first time, and there was nothing to replace the dirty pillowcases. I've never seen such "unobtrusive service"!
During the holiday there was a bunch of dissatisfaction with poor cleaning, unsanitary conditions, indifferent attitude towards tourists, bad food... It seemed that the hotel practiced non-waste food production. that, from the half-eaten lunch is prepared in the morning, and then dinner. Often the chicken dish gave off a stale smell, and the fried liver was simply inedible. The hotel is on the seashore, and the menu every day is the same cooked fish (I don’t know her name) and only once for 10 days there was a salad with a few shrimps and pieces of squid. A very meager list of fruits (this is in season).
Russians on vacation converge quickly. On the beach, we met a family from Moscow who were vacationing with small children. They immediately warned us to be picky about our food. On the first day of rest after dinner in the restaurant, they all fell ill with . . intestinal infection. Were treated by a doctor. They said that many vacationers here are ill with intestinal infections. The British who lived next to them, upon departure, wished their family one thing - to return home alive! These terrible words indicate that an acute intestinal infection in the hotel has become a terrible problem.
On September 9, on the third day of rest, the first of our "outcast" group of Russian tourists fell ill with an intestinal infection. Then his wife. The next day on the beach, a tourist from St. Petersburg began to vomit. He lost consciousness. In the town of Liapades, where we rested, there is no doctor and ambulance, so help was called for a lot of money. The patient was taken to the hospital, where he lay with a dropper until the morning. On the same day in the evening I had a heaviness in my stomach and nausea. During the night (sorry for the details) I had diarrhea more than 20 times. By morning, I was so weak that I could hardly get up to go to the toilet. Then I could no longer get up. I lay in bed for a day. I couldn't even drink. I was ill for six days. My husband took me to a restaurant, where I ate crackers with tea (this is such an all-inclusive vacation). Then my husband fell ill, but not so hard.
To summarize: in our group of 12 people, 11 people had an intestinal infection
After returning home, I immediately began to re-read the reviews about the hotel. In reviews from 2014, they wrote about a severe intestinal infection, general negligence of the staff and unsanitary conditions. Two years have passed, and nothing has changed for the better in this hotel! I’ll also write that the hotel staff approached the family from Moscow and offered to write a positive review about the hotel for a few free days of rest. In the same way, the review of the family who rested after us in the Blue Princess disappeared from the Internet. There my husband fell ill with an intestinal infection. The wife woke up at night from the sounds of vomiting and found her husband unconscious, face in the toilet and with wounds on his face!
And now about the reaction of officials who "made us happy" with this holiday. One of the tour operators, who was called in connection with the illness of a tourist, simply said: “Why did you choose this hotel? Everyone on this coast suffers from an intestinal infection. ” This means that the management of travel agencies has long been aware of the unfavorable sanitary and epidemiological situation on the island! Then why do they talk about the high rating of the Blue Princess hotel and widely recommend it to Russian tourists when it should have been closed for an epidemiological examination for a long time?
In all respects, it does not correspond to the declared stardom. Do Russian tourists go for big money not to rest, but to get sick; live in damp and dirty rooms, where they hardly clean, do not change linen; where they feed poor-quality food, and all the sewage is drained directly into the azure waters near the hotel? Here is not the type of food, but all of the above and is the coveted "all inclusive".
We saved up for this trip for a whole year. One day in Corfu is my monthly pension! Money wasted in vain, and most importantly, this is a loss of trust in people, your company Coral. unfulfilled hopes, undermined health and spoiled long-awaited vacation. Two days of waiting for check-in at the hotel and six days of lying in the room. And not a single excursion, nothing! It was not a rest, but a torment.
Our family learned a cruel lesson from this trip. Let tourists think deeply about the itinerary of the trip and the choice of the tour operator, and also pay attention to the reviews of vacationers - this will help them avoid a fatal mistake and have a great vacation. We wish you only happy travels!

after reading the reviews, I decided that it was time to visit green Corfu, they gave me a cousin in addition, and the agency suggested that the Blue Princess hotel has an English language school Sea English Club, and this option is free, so then I have practically nothing about the hotel I didn’t look, especially since most of the reviews are old and about Elly Beach (the old name, as I understand it, was changed by the owner).

Location: We drove from the airport for 25-30 minutes, settled immediately, moreover, since our room was not booked immediately after us, we checked out on the day of departure in the evening, and not at 11. The hotel is located in a picturesque bay, see photo, they say more. the rooms are very different, from a regular double to a family villa. There are literally a couple of rooms on the first line, the rest are located on the mountain, but there are many different paths, short paths are straight steep, roundabouts are quite accessible to a variety of people.
Beach: the beach is municipal, so even with the "all inclusive" sunbeds are paid, 8 euros for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella, 4 euros for one sunbed. The beach is pebbly. from the hotel territory you can go to a small closed wild beach, or go along the path to a distant beach with a grotto (the reference point is the arch at the exit from the hotel territory, if you stand with your back to the sea - to the right)
Food: fed for slaughter, although at first glance the choice seems to be small. All food is natural, even mashed potatoes. There is a children's corner with pasta, sauces, french fries, a table with salads, main dishes, a sweet table. The food is European and Greek. Wine, beer, coffee, tea, juices, cola - everything can be taken at the bar at any time. closer to the beach there is an a la carte restaurant, where for hotel residents there are 50% discounts on drinks and 25% on food.
Rooms: We lived in room 321, this is a standard double, a shower room in the bathroom, air conditioning, a refrigerator, chairs and a table at the entrance with a beautiful view of the bay.
Throughout the territory there are several pools with free sunbeds.
What's next: the store is 400 meters away, through the mountain along the path you can reach a similar store, but there is a little more choice and there is an ATM.
Internet: only at the reception, after dinner the speed is barely enough for everyone, but the a la carte restaurant has its own Wi-Fi, you can work.
School of English: no matter how much I was worried that this was more of an entertainment, it was important for me that my brother made friends with someone and gave me time to be alone, it turned out that they really teach there! with tenses, lexical topics relevant right here and now. they spent one lesson in the field: they ordered a room at the reception from a real Greek woman, asked questions, clarified what was included in the All Inclusive system, and so on.

Very nice place, beach! ! Nature is wonderful. The hotel is ideal for lovers of nature and silence. The food is good, the breakfast is not great, but the dinners are great. Of the shortcomings, although I don’t want to remember them, the only inconvenience in the room, due to the lack of an extractor fan in the bathroom, was very damp and uncomfortable.

Of the shortcomings, although I don’t want to remember them, the only inconvenience in the room, due to the lack of an extractor fan in the bathroom, was very damp and uncomfortable. Although the rooms and the hotel are different, many were satisfied. In the evening we went for a walk to the nearest village of Liapades, this hotel is not for those who prefer noisy entertainment, they are not there. Our vacation was a success - I want to return to this paradise!! !

Cozy small hotel in Liapades. To the center of the resort of Glyfada - 3 km, to Corfu about half an hour by bus. Stop near the hotel, you can walk to the highway - there are more buses. The territory is small, well-groomed, the beach is nearby, there were few people. The water is clean and cool. You can rent a boat and swim in the bays.

The food is good, breakfasts and dinners, for lunch I usually just bought fruit, but you can walk to the nearest taverns and try the local cuisine. The room was clean, bright, overlooking the sea, it was nice to watch the sunset in the evenings. This year I want to return there again, so far I have found this hotel with only one operator, Tui.

Last summer I vacationed in Corfu, heard a lot about the beauty of the island and its attractions, but what I saw exceeded all my expectations. I stayed at the Elly Beach 4 * hotel, an inexpensive, pleasant hotel on the very seashore, located in a bay of stunning beauty, went on an excursion Paxos - Antipaxos, there were many bays along the way, but ours is the best.

I liked the tour, the whole day at the sea, the mass of impressions, the tan is even) We fed well at the hotel, breakfast and dinner. I dined anyway, as a rule, outside the hotel, because I didn’t sit still. From the hotel you can walk to the fortress of Angelokastro, stunning views. There are many interesting museums in the capital, I spent two days there, it seems that I haven’t looked at everything yet. Of the interesting excursions, Meteora is also worth a trip.

If you want to go to Corfu and stay in a decent hotel, in no case do not get fooled by the advertising of the Elly Beach Hotel! As a rule, in travel agencies it is presented as a 4 * hotel, in fact - 2 * economy. And you pay just like for 4 *. Resettlement at the reception is extremely slow - our group is resettled for 2 hours.

As a rule, in travel agencies it is presented as a 4 * hotel, in fact - 2 * economy. And you pay just like for 4 *. Resettlement at the reception is extremely slow - our group is resettled for 2 hours. And all because all those who arrived were settled not by the beach overlooking the sea (as promised in the travel agency Solveks tour), but in bungalows, to which they had to go uphill in a broken-down minibus. On the claims of the arrivals, they said that there were no other rooms. Some began to call Solvex Tour with a demand to resolve this issue (by the way, among the arrivals there were elderly people who simply couldn’t go up and down every day back and forth), promised to think of something and disappeared. In Solvex Tour, we were advised to "catch the positive and relax" in response to our requests to be moved to a different hotel. Which was really difficult. The hotel is dirty, the service is zero, the food is disgusting. From cleaning - only dressing the bed, dirt on the floor, stains on the tables, etc. are not removed at all. There are cobwebs hanging in the corners that no one cares about. The owner and staff are extremely unfriendly, they walk with gloomy faces, they are reluctant to answer questions. For 10 days of stay bed linen was not changed even once. The plumbing is all leaking, the bathrooms are dirty, the walls are shabby, there are no curtains in the bathroom. Your request to hang a curtain in the bathroom will respond 4 times at best.
This hotel offers half board - breakfast and dinner. The food is monotonous, the menu is repeated every other day, a huge number of wasps fly in the restaurant, with which nothing is done. If only you order food here for a fee, they may put burnt coffee on the table to scare away wasps. Fruits are mostly canned, drinks at dinner at your own expense, you can not bring your own water.
Very dirty pools - everywhere there is green plaque on the walls, the water is muddy, I have never seen at least one of the pools cleaned. The same with the territory of the hotel - leaves, garbage, bottles are not removed. The maids pile empty bottles from the rooms under the trees, so they lie there.
The host travel agency Kanulas Travel also deserves special mention. Our guides not only did not help in solving problems, but also said that if we make a row, then we will just be evicted and all claims will be taken to court. Our guide Tatyana told us that this is not a 4 * hotel, but a 2 * economy one. The reception categorically refused to show the certificate of the hotel. In confirmation of the review, I will post photos of this "miracle" hotel in the near future. Worst service I have ever seen anywhere. This greatly spoiled the impression of the rest. The island itself is amazing.
