I must say right away that the hotel is not bad. What we liked: The rooms are all freshly refurbished. The views from the rooms are amazing… The food is all edible and even tasty. The choice is large, but every day is the same. You will have to make your own menu for every day, and not eat all kinds of meat and snacks at once.

I must say right away that the hotel is not bad.
What we liked:
The rooms are all freshly refurbished. The views from the rooms are amazing…
The food is all edible and even tasty. The choice is large, but every day is the same.
You will have to make your own menu for every day, and not eat all kinds of meat and snacks at once.
The staff is very friendly, many students from Ukraine in the restaurant staff.
Those. no need to painfully remember English.
The car is served to the room on any request.
No children under 16 so very quiet and peaceful.
The sea is very clean and beautiful, the bay itself is impressive, especially when you go down to
Funicular…
What I didn't quite like:
Since the hotel is located on a mountain, there is no territory as such, i. e. nowhere to walk. . .
Long wait for the funicular. There is practically nothing outside the hotel, only
a small shop where you really have everything you need, as well as a bar and a grillhouse…
On the beach by noon it is almost impossible to find a free sunbed.
And there are a lot of wasps on the beach, though they are like flies - annoying, but not biting. (It is better to take clove oil with you... )
This is where the cons end.
Yes, at dinner all drinks are paid, the cheapest wine is 15 euros per bottle, beer is 4 euros.
And yet, the advertisement states that free WIFI is not true in the room, only wired, but on the beach and at the reception and at the pool it really catches WIFI for free and at a decent speed, and it’s even better on the beach, you just need a password from the bartender ask (I'm talking about the beach).
In general, I liked everything... With confidence I can advise for a relaxing holiday.
There is no animation, no children - everything is for relaxation.

It took us a long time to choose a hotel. The travel agency offers "tested horses", but the number of rooms is all old. And then from the reviews we learn about the completely "fresh" Grand Mediterraneo built two years ago. Located in Ermones, relatively close to the capital of the island of Kerkyra, on a mountainside.

It took us a long time to choose a hotel. The travel agency offers "tested horses", but the number of rooms is all old. And then from the reviews we learn about the completely "fresh" Grand Mediterraneo built two years ago. Located in Ermones, relatively close to the capital of the island of Kerkyra, on a mountainside. The originality of the hotel lies in the fact that it was built according to the cascade principle and the lines of rooms are located on their own level. There is a funicular from the beach to the main building at the top. Tour operator Pantheon. No complaints. We were pleasantly surprised by the previously unknown air carrier Nordstar. Departure and return went without delay. Yes, and in general, the airline, in my memory, did not "shine" anywhere on the subject of flight delays.
We had half board. One feature - for dinner you have to pay for drinks. The range of dishes in the main restaurant did not strike the imagination: the same with slight changes. Speaking of restaurants, there is a White Pearl restaurant downstairs, the menu is meager and the cooked dishes are not so hot. But there is also a Nautica tavern, I highly recommend it.
The beach is small pebbles, and the waves, due to the peculiarity of the coast, rolled in dark dregs. I advise you to relax on the sandy beach of Glyfada with clear water, this place is only two kilometers from the hotel, but given the mountain serpentines, it is better to go there by car or by green bus. He departs from the hotel, at what time I will not say, we drove in a rented car, we were not particularly interested.
In general, to get to know the beauty of the island, it is better to rent a car. There are many rental offices everywhere, no problems. Motorboats are available for rent along the coast, but always check if fuel is included in the hourly rate. The Greeks are very tricky with this. You are unlikely to be able to go around the entire island on a boat, but you can easily drive through some part of the water area and enjoy the views from the sea.
What else. The rooms are spacious and bright. The service personnel did not always conscientiously fulfill their duties. In case the funicular breaks down (during our stay, it broke down once), and in order not to climb the stairs to a 30-meter height, guests are taken on golf carts.
The hotel is solid, if you are by car, time will fly by interestingly and quickly. And that's how vacations should be. Have a nice holiday!

Hotel GRAND MEDITERRANEO Resort&Spa :
UPPER LEVEL - restaurants, swimming pools, amazing views from any point. This is 5******! ! ! Absolutely nothing to complain about. The food is delicious. There is no children's menu, but you can easily give everything from the age of 2 from the main menu. Service is unobtrusive. Squeezing babies. There are Russian staff at the reception, restaurant, bar. There is a playground and a house with a mini-club, a super-sports playground - tennis courts, ice tennis, sand volleyball, darts, a fitness club, an indoor bass. SPA week could not find. It turned out that ordinary hotel rooms are equipped as a beauty salon. The massage is awesome. All the people are decent: newlyweds, pensioners and families with babies.
MIDDLE LEVEL - these are houses with numbers. The rooms are brand new and have a large balcony. I liked the bathroom - a glass shower on the floor and a bathroom. Wenge furniture, everything is very neat. I don't remember what to complain about. Lots of pillows. Children are given a canopy bed.
If you want to sleep in a bed - there are rooms with long armchairs. Big plasma TV. Most rooms have a side sea view. But in the center there is a mountain and the whole view spoils the hotel on the opposite slope. This hotel is not on any photo on the site! ! ! They broke off very much when, instead of the promised overgrown mountain, they rested their eyes on this hotel. But then they got used to it. Those rooms with pools that were visible from our room are located along the road: (Maybe other places are better. Do not take N 225-228, it seems - there is some kind of structure nearby that periodically buzzes terribly.
SEA LEVEL - The beach has small and large pebbles. The beach is not super clean. Vodicka green-turquoise. Beautiful. The first 2 days were even warm. And after the storm it became terribly cold. and stayed like this for 2 weeks. Come out like a snowman. Then you get used to it, but of course the hand does not rise to drag the children there. Towels at the reception. All blue sunbeds - hotel, the rest of the public - paid.
There aren't enough umbrellas for everyone. The shower is to the right of the entrance to the beach. A toilet and a normal shower in the restaurant, you can also call a car there so as not to wait for the funicular. The White pearl restaurant above the beach is wonderful - Pts everything is delicious and a pleasant view of the sea. A beautiful path to the right along the sea, giant stones, fishermen, wild goats, sunset ...You can rent a catamaran and sail to the right - there is a wild beach and a sheer cliff with stalactites and drops of water drip into the sea from them. So if you want to not only watch the sea, but also swim, you need to take a car and go to neighboring Halifada. There is sand and fine. And it is better to go to the eastern part of the island - there the water is 4 degrees warmer. We took the car near the entrance to the hotel. Boats are not allowed in Ermones.
Funicular - lives its own life ....2 days did not work - stomped on a thousand stairs. Then often just do not stay on the floor. Cars can be called. When it works and more and comes SUPER! ! ! They put a conder in it.
Sertaki music and cafe del mar are playing. View from the cover! ! ! You ride in this elevator, and swallows, seagulls, and all sorts of huge bugs fly around ...
ANIMATION - starts at 21.30. Every evening live music. Everything is nice and calm. Retro dances. ...and it's all. At Greek evenings, fry are all moving. There is NO animation for children.
MINI-CLUB - the house itself and the playground are wonderful. You can leave the child. The house has everything - from plasticine to football gates and trampolines. 1 time there was a children's party. Everyone tried very hard. It was bright: dances, balls, pipes, caps and so on. Club opening hours are not convenient: 9.30-12.00 and 15.30-18.00. The rest of the time you can walk on the site, and the house is closed.
ISLAND - Near the hotel there is a very decent golf club (approx. 80 euros/hour with trainer and equipment). There is also a great water park nearby. Corfu is close - the sweetest town - Venice without bridges and canals. They climbed the fort. Nothing works on Sunday - this is the best time for walking and taking pictures. There are hundreds of swallows in the sky.
There is an incredible buzz in the cafes on Liston and there are no empty seats. And on weekdays, all the streets are crammed with souvenirs. We climbed the Pantokrator 917m. Husbands liked it. We drove south to Lake Korissia. . It's like sand dunes...Well, soooo...wild nature. Long sandy beach - lake on one side and sea on the other. There only local Greeks relax. On the way cool greenhouses with vegetables and flowers. The western part of the island is a bunch of fields with sheep and chickens. Cool in Paleokastritsa. We went to viewing platforms and climbed the Byzantine fortress of Angelokastro. Picturesque villages in the heart of the island. In the east, everything is for tourists - taverns, restaurants and markets. Do not go to any Greek evenings and excursions - a scam. Pick up a car, map and guide from the hotel.

We rested in early June. What about the hotel itself. For two days the elevator did not work on which you can go down to the beach. The inconvenience is that you have to climb on foot, and go almost the height of a 20-storey building. I would like more greenery. The food is quite decent, varied. There is nothing to complain about this.

There is nothing to complain about this. As for the service, I had to underestimate the rating because of the two characters of the hostess, two ladies seated at the tables, one of them is Sofia with a short haircut and the second with loose hair. Both have a haughty arrogance. The rest of the staff are all wonderful, friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, I don’t know the name of the girl who speaks Russian well, she is fair, young, just charm itself. Well, as if a special thank you to the administrator Chris (reception), a real polyglot, he will always tell you and help if something is not clear. Good girl. When relaxing in Corfu, it is better to rent a car and travel around the island on your own. Similarly, boats and quads and scooters. + free gift day. There are three riding schools on the island, for ridiculous money riding + equipment + consultation + free soft drinks.
