Nafsika Hotel - Adults Only

Had the most amazing week in Corfu made even better by this fantastic hotel! Breakfast was delicious everyday with lots of choice and fresh ingredients - the fruit pancakes and scrambled eggs are the best I’ve seen at a hotel! Friendly, helpful staff who went above and beyond, especially Gotia who made us feel so welcome and that nothing was too much to ask! Dassia is quiet but has amazing, friendly, well priced restaurants and everything you need. Corfu town was just a bus ride and really easy to get too. Best thing to do is hire a car. My partner and I were apprehensive as we had never driven abroad before but it was so easy. The hotel arranged the car drop off and pick up from the hotel which was so easy. Seeing the island this way was incredible. If we were to go again we would get the car for 2 or 3 days instead of one! What a holiday!

The best staff! Location was lovely and practical - great to explore Dassia, Lakonas, Palaiokastritsa, Ipsos and Corfu. Staff were extremely helpful and have great recommendations! Restaurants: Kostas, Alexenders, Alipa, Leondis Trips: Madalena Boat Trip is a great way to explore and crew great fun! Big shout out to hotel staff; receptionist Marilena and bar man Alexsndros!

Having booked this holiday on a whim with TUI and then looking at the hotel location and local amenities on Google maps, I was considering cancelling this holiday before ever leaving, it also started badly when our transfer bus pulled up on the main road and the driver pointed to a unmade lane across the road and said “your hotel is that way.” I complained to Carl the TUI rep about the 150m walk in heat, managing 2 big cases as my wife requires a stick to walk, Our TUI rep was great and our issue was very soon resolved. From the outset the hotel was pretty good, Giota on reception with her friendly smile and very helpful manner soon putting us at ease. Our room was on the first floor overlooking the pool, it was immaculately clean with a huge double bed and quite spacious. Breakfast was almost everything you could wish for, whatever you might want in a breakfast it was there and being buffet style, there was plenty of it. Dinner likewise was buffet style, but it lacked a little in variation and quality but in general it was overall good. The dining room staff were excellent both Dimitris and Vasilikl being both very friendly and attentive, we exchanged many jokes and enjoyed their company. We did spend a lot of time by the pool, soaking up the sun and then cooling off in that ageing but lovely pool. Alexandros, who managed the pool bar among many, many other things, a true grafter and was again very friendly and helpful. In fact, it was the amazing staff that made our stay so wonderful. We visited the local beach several times, my wife on a walking stick and security at the Ikos being mildly aggressive should you cross their line in the sand, a tip is to walk up to the quad hire place and walk down the lane making sure that you turn left along the beach at the bottom. However the beach wasn't for us, being too crowded and to much activity going on. BTW, a trip into old Corfu town is essential, we did it several times and were never disappointed. Thank you to all the Livadi Nafsika Staff for an excellent holiday

I wanted to write a very honest review of this hotel. There are positives. Our room was great and we had a sea view - the cleaners are superb and cleaned our room every day. I quite liked the breakfast, but my partner found it repetitive, so depends on taste I think. The staff are all great, especially the lovely ladies on Reception, who could not be more helpful and Alex the bar man, chap who seems to do everything - very hard working, helpful, happy, welcoming. There are several sunbeds around the pool which are broken. When we were there the pool was green and I could not believe people were actually going in it... To be fair to the hotel, on our last couple of days there was a chap there giving the pool attention. I think there is a staffing shortage as they all seem very busy. On our first day we were given a menu and tried to order food at lunch time and were told that we could not have meat!!!! So really the only other thing you could have was chips..... Also, on the same day I asked for a Bloody Mary and was told no cocktails today - only beer and wine....The pool bar was open on the evening we arrived - but did not reopen again after that evening. Dassia as an area did not suit us very well. The road is busy and they could definitely do with a pedestrian crossing. During the day not very much was open - most restaurants seemed to open around 5 or 6 pm... We had several days at the Beach Club Malibu - which was really nice. We also loved the little bar on the front, Dassia Beach Bar. In poor weather - of which we had quite a lot - rain/thunder/lightening - there is little to do in Dassia. I agree with the previous review - there are 2 ways to get to the hotel and in poor weather you have to wade through deep puddles. We did a tour of the island and a trip to Albania - both of which I would recommend... but be prepared to queue at the Ferry Port on your return... Only 2 people checking passports and a couple of ferries arrived together, so long queues. Corfu town is lovely and we got a taxi there - the no 7 bus always looks very busy, with people standing - so we avoided the bus. On our first trip to Corfu Town there were 3 cruise ships docked - so very, very, very busy.... But the second time we went it was lovely and peaceful. This hotel has the potential to be good, but there is very little holiday feel atmosphere.

This is a very good 3 star plus hotel with a 5 star staff from the cleaners all the way up to reception, they were always willing to help giving us some good information for our holiday. Bar staff always with a cheery smile, well done the lot of you. The hotel itself is behind the main road in a quiet area the layout of the hotel and grounds are very pleasant, we had no problems getting sun beds. Rooms cleaned daily, beds comfortable. There are some good restaurants close by and a few shops and supermarkets, Corfu town is a 20min bus ride depending on traffic.

This hotel is the worst that i have ever stayed in. The photographs on the website are very misleading in reality this hotel is dirty with a horrible strong smell of drains, our room was dark and dingy. the bathroom was so small and the shower not fit for purpose. The walls so thin that you could hear every thing from the next room. the pool area is not nice and possibly the worst pool that I have ever seen with green dirty water. The evening meal was terrible, food that was cooked and just left out to go cold. the chicken was pink inside and just inedible so we walked out and found a pizza place as we didnt want to get food poisoning. we reported this to TUI who promised to send a rep the next morning but didnt turn up so we checked out and found our selves another hotel which was lovely. We are not overly fussy people but this hotel is truly unaceptable.
