We rested with my family at the Mayor Pelekas Monastery hotel in June. Judging objectively, I can single out the pluses: a large territory, a beautiful view of the west coast, an excellent entertainment program. We were very pleased with the traditional village - Pelekas - when you drive up, the houses on the hillside look unusual. The observation deck - the throne of the Kaiser - is also amazing. By the way, there is a free bus from the hotel to the village of Pelekas, so as not to walk along the narrow paths. The beauty of the hotel is indescribable - the sea stretches to the horizon. And you can't see the shore like on the east coast! And unlike many other hotels, sunbeds are not for extra charge.
The hotel is divided into sectors - floors, it is convenient to move between them using elevators. But the main highlight is the restaurant where they cook divinely! And what table setting! Near the pool is quite a large area for animation. Theme nights are held daily: live music, Greek evening, etc. Everything would be fine if not for a small minus: I would like more variety, especially for dinner. But this is already, if you find fault. I don’t know how plus or minus to note the fact that the hotel is remote from settlements: it seems to be quiet, the sea is nearby, but sometimes there is not enough activity.
For athletes, the ideal option is the free gym and the steep uphill climb from the hotel. For the rest, there is the opportunity to take a free shuttle to the village. Despite the small minuses, my family was satisfied with the rest. We will definitely visit Corfu again.

The not very convenient road up to the village is justified by transfers and a magnificent view. There is even an observation deck in Peleksa, from which it is especially good to watch the sunset, but this spectacle is available in Akvis Pelekas and from rooms with a sea view. Large spacious beach. The hotel has animation and theme nights for every day, Wi-Fi (free), additional to the main one - a Greek restaurant, with a discount for those who are on the alley.

Rooms. . . normal. Labyrinth hotel advised instead of the one I thought about - but I thought about Mitsis (Roda Beach). For, on this coast, where Peleksa (here near Paleokastritsa, judge for yourself) is especially colorful and you can feel the specifics of the island. Prices in the spring are understandably very good, the weather is not very lucky, judge from the photos. )

The three of us rested at the end of August. The location of the hotel is 5+. Meals too, room cleaning and linen change also did not cause any complaints. It was the first time in Greece, we were delighted with the Ionian sea and the beauty of nature. The hotel is a quiet family, designed for families with children.

Young people who love parties will probably be bored. But we liked everything, the excursions are super. Teztur representatives are always there and ready to help.
The only thing I advise you not to save and pay extra for the sea view, firstly, there will be an opportunity to enjoy stunning sunsets, and secondly, if you don’t have a sea view, and live on the first floor... then the view from the basement.
We, thank God, enjoyed the view of the sea and the sound of the surf. We hope that we will return to this blessed island more than once.

I would like to share with all my impressions of the rest in this "wonderful" hotel. Rested in early August 2008 together. And so, everything is in order: We arrived at the hotel at 3-4 o'clock in the afternoon, the heat was over +40, the hotel manager Nicoletta handed out the keys to the rooms. Finally finding ourselves in the room, of course, we first of all ran to turn on the air conditioner and, oh horror, the air conditioner blew hot air.

I would like to share with all my impressions of the rest in this "wonderful" hotel. Rested in early August 2008 together. And so, everything is in order:
We arrived at the hotel at 3-4 o'clock in the afternoon, the heat was over +40, the hotel manager Nicoletta handed out the keys to the rooms. Finally finding ourselves in the room, of course, we first of all ran to turn on the air conditioner and, oh horror, the air conditioner blew hot air. We did not really understand this joke and decided to wait, but the situation did not change. In the end, I had to go to the reception and explain the problem. Then the master came to us, checked everything and said that the air conditioner was really malfunctioning and that we needed to change the room and called the reception himself and reported how things were. We went back to the reception, after which we were given another room. Arriving in the next room, we did not find any changes in the operation of the air conditioner + the room itself was much worse (the walls were shabby, the sockets barely stayed in the wall, the toilet had no comments at all). We were already quite so on edge and shocked by the 4* hotel. But we decided not to give up and went to find out how it is possible to exist here with such “cool” air conditioners, to which they explained to us for a long time that the air conditioners all work and they need some time to get back to normal, and what time is unknown. In general, for people who have air conditioning at home, such circumstances were shocking to say the least. We stayed in the room and decided to act through our guide, who was later told the following: “At first I gave them a normal room, they didn’t want to, now they will live where I settled them. ” To be honest, this is the first time such “Greek” hospitality and understanding for tourists has been encountered. It is clear that she did it all out of spite, she apparently did not like that people came and something else did not suit them. Then we called Moscow and asked to resolve this issue. The result of all the negotiations is this: we were told from Moscow that they called and agreed that they were promised that we would be relocated, and Madame Nicoletta told our guide: “Yes, they called me, but I said that there would be no relocations. ” We didn’t communicate with this madam in tattoos and with a smoky voice anymore, it’s too much honor to spend your vacation on showdowns. We just decided that we would write a detailed review about the hotel and its management.
And now about the hotel: the hotel itself is apparently already old, nothing has changed for a long time. The rooms are not cleaned very well, the towels leave much to be desired, they are also not always changed, it is not clear on what basis what is changing. They are cleaned at an inconvenient time, when many are hiding from the "very hell" in the rooms, we did not find signs like "do not disturb", which is very inconvenient.
Food: breakfasts are very monotonous - scrambled eggs, bacon, muesli, chopped fruit, bread, tomatoes, cottage cheese, yogurt, tea or coffee is poured, though they are made on local water, so it turns out to be "poison". Dinner is basically normal, for 2 weeks we even managed to try moussaka once, once - sulaki. At dinner, it is customary to order water, 0.5l - costs 1.5 euros, 1.5l - costs 2.5 euros. For reference, in a nearby supermarket, a 1.5l bottle of water costs 0.60 euros. You can also order beer and wine there.
Entertainment: entertainment at the hotel is funny, on Fridays there is a Greek evening by the pool - these are two boys and two girls jumping in tight leggings and trying to cheer up the audience, forgive the Greeks, but this is still a spectacle. There is a beautiful place next to the hotel where you can have a drink called “Petra” in the evening. And in general, there is nothing else to do at all. In the evening there is such silence that all this reminds of Soviet times, rest for the elderly. The only salvation for those drowning in this boredom is car rental. You can rent a scooter from 17 euros with category B rights and ride it somewhere, you can take a car, mostly mechanics from 40-50 euros minimum (the smallest car), automatic from 80 euros.
You can go to the city of Kerkyra (Corfu) for a walk, a free minibus stops near the hotel and takes you uphill to the city bus stop. In principle, you can catch it at 10 am and at 10-30 a bus arrives to the city. But we observed such a situation that a lot of people stood on the minibus and everyone did not fit, so there is a chance not to leave, and it goes very rarely. Of course, you can climb on foot, if everything is fine with your health, we climbed 2-3 times. At first it’s hard, and then you probably get used to it, in 20 minutes it’s real.
Upon departure, a young girl at the reception gave us a check for 3.5 euros - as our duty, it was very interesting, there was not a word in English and she explained it just like that - for the restaurant, although we took water there and always paid for it right there. Fun, we no longer began to find out where we were credited with this amount and just gave it away, but the fact itself . .
We regretted that we went for 2 weeks and ended up in this hotel. We rested in Crete - it's just heaven and earth. After such a “warm” attitude at the hotel and such a “fun” place, to be honest, I lost the desire to visit this country in the future...

I love Greece very much and I rested in Greece not for the first time. I was shocked by the service, service and food in this hotel!! ! There is no fridge and mini bar in the room, cleaning the room only if there is a tip on the bed, you have to pay 6 euros for a beach towel (you will not be refunded), at least twice a day you have an amazing opportunity to get stuck in the elevator (glass cabin without ventilation)! And the food in this hotel!! ! nowhere else in any country in the world (I was in 15 countries with different levels of classification) I have never seen such terrible food! If you don't want to ruin your holiday then choose another hotel!!!! !.
