We stopped by on 06/1/2019, settled in Evgeny's building. I’ll tell you the room, it’s awful, dark, the walls are shabby, there is no bath, the space is simply separated by glass, like a shower. We went to rest with a friend, there were two different names on the reservation. And the room has one bed for 1.5 people. It's impossible to sleep together! They asked to change. Changed. Settled in Nicholas building. But then the keys were mixed up, then something else, in general, we went back and forth 4 times, we were exhausted and the first impression was already spoiled. Now about the territory. She is slit, there is a zoo. But the conditions for keeping animals leave much to be desired.
About food. Threesome variety. But!! ! There are so many people that you walk around with a plate for 15-20 minutes and there is really nowhere to sit. Then there is a place, but it is without appliances. The waitress comes, does not wipe the table, but puts your napkin right on the dirty one!! ! If you left for an additional dish, then you can say goodbye to the cutlery. They take it and don't bring new ones.
In general, I will say that the hotel has a maximum of three arrivals, and not the declared 5.
It's raining today and there's not even a TV in the room. Animation is weak. The hotel is not recommended.

Very large territory of the hotel, though mosquitoes interfere with walking in the evenings. It is located very well, there is a bus stop near the hotel, there are large supermarkets and excellent souvenir shops (I especially liked the store of natural products).

It is located very well, there is a bus stop near the hotel, there are large supermarkets and excellent souvenir shops (I especially liked the store of natural products). We rented a car for 4 days and drove all over the island, visited almost all the sights - Pntokrator, St. Spiridon, Achilleion, the old and new fortresses, the Canal of Love in Sidari, the fortress of Angelokastro, Paleokastritsa, a walk on Calypso and a fur seal show, a visit to Bari and the relics of St. Nicholas. The island is beautiful, the hotel is ideal for families, comfortable kitchens in the rooms (if the child has not yet switched to an adult table, then you can even cook soup - everything you need is there). I recommend this hotel to everyone.

Excellent hotel for family holidays. Comfortable rooms with electric stove and sink for washing dishes. Playgrounds, many pools, a water park with slides, a good beach with a sandy bottom and a gentle entrance. Large green area, living corner. Nearby (5 minutes walk) is the village of Acharavi, where you can buy baby food, souvenirs, and rent a car - everything is cheaper than in a hotel.

Small remarks: 1. without English it is difficult; 2. mosquitoes - there are mosquito nets, but it's better to stock up on "Raptor"; 3. ants - they can get into bed, it's good at least they don't bite; 4. when the sea is rough, the water is unclear, but it is worth going deeper, and everything is fine. We have a child (2.5 years old) adored to swing on the waves.

I usually don't write reviews after visiting another resort, as it seems to me that each person has their own requirements for relaxation. As they say, who loves watermelon, and someone likes pork cartilage. But this time I decided to share my impressions of the island of Corfu. The following prompted me to do this: before the trip, I deviated from my rules and decided to look at the reviews of those who had already been there.

I usually don't write reviews after visiting another resort, as it seems to me that each person has their own requirements for relaxation. As they say, who loves watermelon, and someone likes pork cartilage. But this time I decided to share my impressions of the island of Corfu. The following prompted me to do this: before the trip, I deviated from my rules and decided to look at the reviews of those who had already been there. This is due to the fact that we were traveling with my sister and two small children without being accompanied by representatives of the stronger sex. I was interested in the roads, the possibility of an individual transfer and, of course, the weather. Yes, I made a huge mistake! Friends, never read reviews - they are written only by dissatisfied people! I read the reviews after we bought the tickets. And after reading the opinions, I seriously decided to hand over the permits. I was interested in reviews of the hotel "Gellina Village" in the town of Acharavi. And what did I find out? "Huge wild territory", hordes of snakes crawling along the paths and biting unfortunate tourists, terrible service at the reception and clouds of Germans, for whom there is all the entertainment. In a separate line there were reviews about some building of Gellin Mare, in which devastation and desolation reigned and in which only dumb Russians were settled. To say I was shocked is an understatement! I was especially impressed by the snakes and the ruined rooms. But my sister, who chose this hotel, categorically refused to take vouchers and forbade me to climb on the Internet, "reading all sorts of nonsense"!
In general, we went. Friends advised us not to bring things into the room immediately upon check-in. While things are not in the room - you are not settled there. We decided that if the room is destroyed, then we will demand another one.
The flight from Vnukovo took 3 hours and 30 minutes (by the way, we flew back in 2 hours and 45 minutes! ). At the airport of Corfu (Kerkyra) we were met by representatives of the company "Kaulunas Travel" and taken to the hotel. At the airport, I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the customs officers and passport control.
Our hotel was located in the village of Acharavi, which is 40 km from Kerkyra, the capital of the island. We drove along the serpentine for about 1.5 hours. Everyone was sick. So, take the "Dramina" with you, my child also gets sick on the flat roads of Central Russia, so I was fully armed. Buses are comfortable.
At the hotel reception, we were served within 15 minutes, and the staff was very kind, there was even a girl, Yulia, who spoke Russian.
The hotel is really a very large area, with small buildings scattered across it. They have the names of the children and grandchildren of the owner of the hotel (Niki, Eugenia, Basilia, etc. ). The territory is very green, the vegetation is diverse, clean. True, there was some unfinished football field and unennobled thickets around it, but it was far from the main buildings. The territory has its own very bad water park, free for hotel guests, except Tuesday.
the room consisted of 2 large rooms with double beds and all the necessary standard set of a good hotel, a shared kitchen with a stove and a refrigerator, a bathroom.
We liked it and we allowed to bring things.
Sea. The sea is just very good. The beach is sandy and clean. Sunbeds are free, umbrellas are sometimes not enough. The sea was warm, very clean, sandy bottom. Super for children! There were storms 4 times in 2 weeks, but it was impossible to pull the Russians out of the water. The children were waiting for the waves and were very fond of diving into them, bringing the rescuers to hysterics. Please note that the yellow flag on the lifeguard tower means that children must be pulled out of the water.
Nutrition. I will say one thing: everyone could find what suited him. Personally, I liked the food least of all the hotel bells and whistles. Although everything is very high quality, there is enough choice. Basically I chose fish dishes - they were good!
Service. Cleaned every day except Sunday. Towels were changed daily. Very nice maid, by the end of our stay she had learned a few words in Russian. No one impudently asks for a tip - this is not Egypt.
ENTERTAINMENT. Here, of course, the reviews turned out to be true. Animation is simply NOT there. Also for German children, two anemic girls and two highlighted boys sing songs, but even then very sluggishly. Have fun, i. e. go to cafes with live music in Acharavi. Restaurant prices are very low.
Excursions. The representative of the company was at the hotel every day, according to the schedule. The choice of excursions is huge. Be sure to go to Paleokastritsa - an unusually beautiful place on the Adriatic coast of Corfu and, of course, to Kerkyra. The capital of the island is something special, incomparable.
Shopping. A lot of beautiful jewelry, relatively inexpensive, especially not in Corfu. In Acharavi, we had a little less choice, and the prices were 1%. 20 below. A lot of souvenirs and national products. There is nothing else to buy there. Some of the group asked the price of furs, but they explained to us that Corfu is not included in the "fur coat shop tour", the prices for them there are higher than in Russia.
I summarize. I really liked it. The child (10 years old) unequivocally said that he liked it more than in cheerful Turkey. The island has its own unusually warm aura. Wonderful nature, the eyes just rest. If you need only you and your family and mood for rest, feel free to stay in Hellina Village. And remember, this is not Turkey, where everything sparkles and sings 24 hours a day. This is a healthy and measured rest.

Rested from 14 to 28 June 2008. Great hotel with a great area. All rooms with kitchenettes. The food is varied. The service is good, but there are no Russian-speaking staff, except for one boy at the reception. 75% of vacationers are Germans with children. Under them all the animation is adjusted. We did not suffer from this (we are 44 years old, married for more than 20 years).

I highly recommend excursions: a large panoramic tour of Corfu (for the whole day, but not burdensome and very beautiful) and Paxos (sea, also for the whole day). We went to Bari (Italy) - very impressed.
I was very surprised by the slowness and unobtrusiveness of the local population (even sellers). Looks like this is the secret of their longevity.

Awesome service! Large territory, its own water park, mini zoo. Excellent service and varied food. The sea is 20 meters from the hotels. Friendly attitude of the local population. Awesome two-story room with all amenities. The only drawback is that there are no Russian-speaking staff and weak animation in German, designed for children.

The excursions are all good, especially the "Greek Party" with national dances and live music. I also liked the sightseeing tour of Kirkira with a boat trip. I recommend to everyone!
