We rested in this hotel together from 06/01/14 to 06/11/14. Meals: breakfast.
Transfer from the airport takes 30 minutes.
This small family hotel is perfect for a relaxing holiday. By the way, it used to be called "Karina". All rooms overlook the Ionian Sea, the higher the floor the better the view. It is very convenient to drink beer on the balcony in the evening and look at the sea (a table and two chairs are present). Behind the hotel are olive trees and the mountain is very beautiful. Rooms after cosmetic renovation. Photos on the sites correspond.
For lovers of Egyptian and Turkish fives, this is not the place.
The room has a hair dryer, a TV with two Russian channels (1st Russian-brehuchiy and music RU). Also in a separate compartment with doors there is a small refrigerator, an electric kettle, spoons, forks, glasses and, which is convenient, a sink for washing dishes.

The shower, as usual in Greece in hotels of this category, is with a curtain; there is a hole in the floor that does not bother me.
Cleaning daily (bleach did not stink), change of linen and towels every other day.
There are rooms for families with children, very comfortable, interesting design (we are going with our grandson, so we looked) there is a photo, write in a personal, I will send it.
The beach is about 50 meters, pebbly across the road, there are few cars, we took slippers, but you can do without them, there are sun loungers. For those who wish the official beach 330 steps to the left (thought) there is a shower, no sunbeds. The sea was very clear and there were no waves. The water at this time was 22-24 degrees.
Meals, breakfasts are quite diverse for this type of hotel: cheese, sausage, cereal, toast, fruit, jam, homemade yogurt, eggs, fried eggs with bacon, ask them to fry, milk, honey, butter, coffee, tea and something else. remembered. .
Dinner for two of us at the hotel cost about 15 euros. By the way, the owner Spiros prepares amazing moussaka (I recommend it), my wife liked everything. If you ask for children, they will make soup. The wife ate lentil, cream soup, chicken. I liked it very much. And also try the cocktails that Spyros makes.
Speaking of the owner of the hotel, Spiros, a very kind Greek uncle in Russian, not boom-boom (as we do in English and Greek), explained on the fingers and understood each other perfectly. English knows.
The pool is clean, well maintained, the depth is different when we swam a 4-year-old child, everything is fine.
Wi-fi is free and relatively fast, but it only takes at the reception and by the pool.
Tatyana, our former compatriot, works at the reception desk, she will help you with all questions, ask even, if possible, to take you in your car. He will tell you about excursions. A very responsive girl. For all questions contact her.
Tatyana if you read greetings from Volgograd from Inna and Vitaly. By the way, if you go there after reading my review, please grab her Borodino bread.
The bus stop is right next to the road, it says bus stop.

I definitely recommend the hotel for a relaxing, measured rest, if possible, I will come with my grandson.
To the village of Benitses, more precisely, taverns and restaurants about 600 m. , 5-7 min. a leisurely step along the road, the village is quite quiet and peaceful, it consists of hotels, shops, taverns and restaurants. Mostly rest our compatriots.
Lunch for two in Corfu taverns with alcohol (2 drinks of gin and a jug of dry wine) 35-45 euros. If more modest 20-25 euros. You can stock up in supermarkets, I recommend "COOP". Try the local Corfu beer.
The vacation turned out to be wonderful, they took a car for three days, they asked for a Fiat Panda, they drove a Fiat Punto (8000 km) for the same money (the drivers didn’t throw off gasoline, they will understand what I mean). For peace of mind, they took it through a tour operator for 128 euros (a little expensive) with full insurance.
We traveled almost all of this beautiful island of Corfu. The roads are narrow in places, 2 cars do not diverge. I did not like the village of Kavos imported half-drunk youth, etc. etc. Everything else is great. We swam in the Mediterranean Sea (Glyfada, the waves, the water is colder), visited the throne of the emperor, Paleokastritsa (beautiful bays), the port of Lefkimia (for interest), the village of Pelekas, Ipsos, looked at Darrell's house, the port, fortresses, a monument to Ushakov, etc.
We drove about 250 km. We burned 18 liters of gasoline. Gasoline 1.75-1.85 euros. By the way, the Navitel-Navigator worked perfectly on the smartphone, just download the maps of Greece and turn off the secondary roads function, otherwise he took us to the road to the hotel in Kerkyra, but to his credit he took us out.

We took two excursions without our tour operator Paxos and Antipaxos, a wonderful walk along the sea, we looked at the grottoes, we drove to Paxos and fed the natives (in the sense we had lunch there) and by the way we took a survey of Corfu in vain, everyone had traveled by car before. I recommend to go on a meteor, it's impressive. This time we did not go as we had already been there.
About the tour operator "Mouzenidis-travel". We met, drove the girls work well, but they presented us with a fly in the ointment, they took us from the hotel at 6-30 in the morning, the guide girl came up, and the bus bye-bye, the hotel was renamed, but the driver forgot to tell about it, so I had to stomp 600 meters with bags to another hotel. The second time through them I rest, this was not expected.
