Delfinia Hotel

My eight friends and I stayed here two weeks ago and we were blown away by how welcoming the staff were at this hotel. The hotel was extremely clean and well kept in a perfect location by the beach. The swimming pool was lovely and I particularly enjoyed swimming in the pool whilst looking out to sea to the mountains in the distance. It was perfect.

This is the first time we've visited the Greek islands and we weren't disappointed. The hotel is well situated on a small beach. We had a sea view room with views of fantastic sunrises over the Greek mainland. The staff are all very friendly and speak excellent English. Rooms are spotless and well appointed - ours included a fridge which, as it was quite hot, was very welcome. The food was excellent, varied and well cooked. Our only criticism is that some of it could have been a bit hotter. We don't think the lights above actually gave out much heat. Puddings are amazing - lots of honey & syrup so don't go if you're on a diet!!! The drinks are quite expensive but we tend to have water with our meal. The surprise is that the still water comes in a litre bottle (2.80 Euros) - as we didn't drink all that at dinner we took the rest back to the room for use during the next day - result - didn't have to buy much extra water. The supermarket opposite the hotel entrance is good and reasonably priced. The whole area can be easily explored on foot and a walk up the hill to the old village is well worth the steep climb. Look out for the chickens and the water spring also the 'self walking dogs' - they are amusing as they appear to know where they are going and don't bother about people. Most of them leave the village, walk down the lane by the hotel, along the beach for a while and then back up one of the many side roads up to the village again! A walk into Messonghi along the main road & across the bridge and down to the beach can become a circular route if you take the row boat ferry (1 euro each) back across the river to the Messonghi Beach Resort and along the board walks back to the hotel. Bus into Corfu town is a must - conductors on board!!! The only downside is that the return bus stop is at the bus station which is about 20 - 30 min walk. The sign posts are deceptive 300m is more like 500!!! There are lots of museums and the new & old forts are worth a visit too. Some are free others charge but there's a reduction for over 65's!!!! The hotel pool is a bit cold but the sea is really warm and you swim with fish! We will return to the Delfinia as the location takes come beating.

Very nice and clean hotel in small town Moraitika. It is a perfect place if you wish quite and peaceful holiday. The food could be better for 4* hotel. Staff helpful and super nice. Hotel right next to green buses stop, just 2.40 euro to Corfu town.
