Kontokali Bay Resort and Spa

Candace Read

We had a wonderful stay at Kontokali Bay Resort & Spa and would definitely recommend it. The hotel itself is beautiful and very well maintained, with everything kept to a really high standard. The breakfast was lovely, with so many options to choose from each morning — there was definitely something for everyone. The staff were one of the highlights of our stay. Everyone we came across was so friendly, polite and helpful, which really added to the experience. We also used the hotel’s shuttle service into Corfu Old Town twice, which was fantastic and made getting into town so easy. While we were at the hotel, we only ate at Parea, but the food and service there were both excellent. One thing I particularly liked about the hotel was that there seemed to be more seating and loungers than guests. You didn't have that feeling of needing to get up at the crack of dawn to put your towel down on a lounger, especially on the beach, which made the whole experience much more relaxing. The only negatives for me were that our room was a little on the small side, and I felt the spa could do with some updating. It has so much potential, as the setting is lovely, and I did have a really nice treatment there despite this. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and really enjoyed our time at Kontokali Bay. It’s a beautiful, relaxing hotel with lovely staff, great facilities and a wonderful atmosphere. I would happily stay here again.

We stayed at Kontokali in a 2 bedroom suite earlier in July. Here's my synopsis of the resort: Our room was great, we stayed with our kids and the way the suite was designed was weird to me at first but grew on me as the trip went on. The views from our room were great, the balconies were very nice and large. And the bathroom was huge. The food on property was solid, we ate at Parea and whatever the buffet restaurant was for breakfast. The buffet was really good, like solid, great omelette station and anything you could want. Parea was good, views were great, and our wait Dionysus was the man. The location is gorgeous, the beaches are nice, pool is nice but a bit small. Hard to get a lounger. The service at the pool was weird, specifically they didnt lay out towels, you had to go downstairs to get them and the food service at the pool was just ok. There is a little place in between the two beaches where you can rent boats, waves runners etc. We rented a boat twice, it was cheap and easy. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Had a lovely relaxing week stay here as a couple. Hotel had everything you can ask for. Extremely clean. It is an oasis. The beach and food is the best part. Never struggled to find a sunbed. PAREA restaurant was exquisite. We found that the pool was always full of kids , so never went- just to be aware of this if coming as a couple, but it was fine as the beach was always free. Parking onsite for renting a car. Service was great. The massages we got were life-changing. There is not much nearby outside of hotel- you can walk to some nearby restaurants or the marina, but you honestly don’t need to leave the hotel if you don’t want to, it had everything. The music entertainment was amazing also. Yoga classes by the beach. If I come back to Corfu again ,I will be staying here.

Dear Kontokali Bay Team, I am writing to express our deepest gratitude for an absolutely wonderful stay at your hotel. From the moment we began planning our trip, your team’s quick and helpful email responses put us at ease. Throughout our entire stay, the guest relations team provided exceptional service, going above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. A very special thank you for helping organize our proposal—it was a truly magical moment that we will cherish forever. Your attention to detail and thoughtfulness made it unforgettable. Additionally, we were so grateful for your generosity on our final day. When our return flight was delayed, providing us with a room for a few extra hours free of charge was a huge relief and a true demonstration of your incredible hospitality. Thank you once again for making our time in Corfu so special. We cannot wait to return in the future! Warmest regards, Alex

Great hotel with a great view and a lot of facilities. There are two diversified and very good restaurants for breakfast. One big pool has salted and warm water and a view of the sea. Every night, there are shows with different types of music. The car rental service is great with good offers. There is a towel changing service on the beach and bar services directly to the sunbeds. Natural shade is available on the beach if you stay under the pine trees. There's a playground for kids with a pool and friendly staff, spa service, a gym, and an indoor pool. Tasty food is available at lunch and dinner. The staff needs a little more experience: 1. **Restaurant:** When we arrived, we installed the application, which is very useful for checking activities. It even says it's good for booking, but not entirely so. On the first day, the waiter almost threw us out even though we had a booking reservation via the app at 5 p.m. Why? Because they start at 7 p.m., so it was not valid. We insisted because we had just checked in and were hungry, and we offered to leave the table by 7 p.m., and he eventually accepted. He recommended that we book the next day at 7 p.m. directly with him, not through the app, so we did. The next day, our reservation was moved to 8:30 p.m. I had to show them where in their notebook they had booked us at 7 p.m., so they finally let us in again. 2. **Reception:** Due to our charter flight changing, we had to check out very early. So, we went to reception to pay whatever we had charged to the room the night before. We realized the next day that we should have told the receptionist that it would be nice to prepare a box for a takeaway breakfast, because otherwise, they do not offer it on their own initiative. 3. **Rooms:** Big room with access to our own pool, with service that changed towels daily. However, the service also needs to check the replacements in the bathroom and refill them. If we had to stay one more night, we wouldn't have had any shower gel to wash with. 4. **Cleaning around:** Every night, the staff from the beach cleans the path from sand, which is quite good. Someone also chose to clean up with hypochlorite in the morning at the Marina restaurant. Because of that, all the water was tracked onto shoes inside the food service area, which was very slippery. My son fell on his back and, of course, destroyed his clothes and mine due to the fact that I had to hold him in my arms, and his shoes were full of hypochlorite.
