Govino Bay

Really nice view, very family friendly, walls were a bit thin but staff was very accomodating.

Beach

The place could benefit from renovations and special attention to cleanliness.

Well situated on the island to make excursions to the North, West, and into old-town Corfu quite easy. Nice amenities and spacious accommodations. Friendly staff. The waterfront water at the property is murky in Govino Bay, but most everywhere else on the island is beautiful clear blue water. The swimming pool is really nice and does make up for the disappointing beach.

I’m quite a nervous traveller and always read the reviews before I go anywhere. I wanted to write a review for anyone similar to me. We have just finished our stay here, but right from the beginning we were greeted with a warm welcome. We were shown our apartment, where the safe was and how everything worked by a lovely member of staff. We had been left a bottle of water in the fridge for our arrival as the shops are a short walk down the road. The apartments were clean and spacious. They could do with an update; however, for a base to sleep and get ready it was perfect! I found the beds to be comfortable. They had extra blankets and pillows and as the rooms downstairs could get hot we asked reception for fans which were promptly delivered to us. You have a basic kitchen area - fridge, freezer, oven, hob and sink. Air conditioning in the main part of the apartment and a TV where we put on ‘Kosmos’ radio of an evening which played well known songs. They have wifi, but I didn’t always find this to be the best, so if you are wanting to use your phone/ tablets etc… I would check what your data roaming allowance is first. The apartments are cleaned every other day with fresh towels and sheets! We spent most days by the pool area. They have a pool bar that serves a variety of drinks and food. It is open until 11 at night and the food is delicious and comes in great portions! In the evenings we would walk 10-15 minutes down the road towards the bay where we found a variety of restaurants to eat. Everyone is friendly and accommodating and we were often given something on the house alongside the bill. There is a few supermarkets close by, but as we only bought snacks for breakfast and lunch found the local markets that were just down the road to be enough. We had a couple of trips out. Aqualand is a brilliant day out and has something for everyone. The bus stop is just outside the apartments and you can by an all day pass for €5 each. You can pay by card on the buses. I read some reviews about the dogs barking, so packed some ear plugs just incase! I think I heard them maybe twice whilst down the by the pool; however, where our apartment was we couldn’t hear them at all. All in all we had a marvellous time and if the opportunity presented itself, we would be back!
