Very nice place & nice people, conveniently located. Good value for money.

Very nice place & nice people. A little walk to the beach, but its a nice walk with beautiful surroundings. Seems to be a party place in the summer months. The driver that came to pick me up (for 10 EUR fee, which is much cheaper than an Uber) was super nice & very knowledgeable. He also takes guests on tours (olive oil tasting and history of the island), but I could unfortunately not join due to my schedule. He was kind enough to stop at a kebab place so that I could get something to eat. The bar also seemed nice, there were some people there playing cards.

There was a storm the night I stayed there and some water leaked into the room through the roof. Luckily the bed closest to the leak was unoccupied. Also the power cut off during the night. But this could have been due to the thunder storm.

Nice place if you're not picky

Good place to connect with other solo travelers. Good and cheap shuttle service to and from the place.

Mattress was super uncomfortable, loads of mosquitoes in the room and no nets on the window. Bathroom was always flooded after showers because the curtain was too short. Staff was over worked, annoyed and ready for the end of season. Drunk guys singing in front of the rooms in the middle of the night. Beach House where the shared dorms are is so far away from the main house that staff picks you up by car. They forgot about me.

Fun but only for a Short Trip

There was a good energy and access to the beach and tours straight from the hostel scuba’s the kayaking tours or the parties every night

It was very dirty and unhygienic. My shower did not drain at all and there were leaks in the ceiling. The shuttle drivers were very rude and often screamed and yelled at passengers when there was a slight mis-translation

If you like party and don’t sleep much, pay cheap price in comparison with other hotels around. This is your place.

The rooms are right to the beach and they offer activities everyday (with extra costs) which are very nice.

The reception is at the top of the hill, and some of the staff were unfriendly. When I entered my room, the drain was blocked and the whole place was flooded. I reported it, but nobody cared.

Faded glory, not worth the price

Location: The only real highlight. Especially the beach house with direct access to the ocean – the view is beautiful, and the outdoor jacuzzi is a nice touch.

• Bathroom: In very poor condition. Now I understand why there are no pictures of the bathrooms online – they honestly resemble prison showers. The shower curtain makes no sense; it hangs half a meter outside the shower area, causing water to splash everywhere. The bathroom door didn’t close and even after reporting it to reception, nothing was done. • Hygiene: Only the white sheets are washed. The thicker top blanket (which has no cover) is reused between guests without being cleaned – I saw this happen during room cleaning. • Mattress: Extremely uncomfortable – I could literally feel and count the springs. Definitely in need of replacement. • Wi-Fi: Never worked on my phone during the entire stay. • Staff: Constantly shouting across the property to communicate with each other. It felt like a toxic work environment and made the atmosphere uncomfortable. • Vibe vs Reality: Tries to present itself as a happy, social party hostel, but the reality doesn’t match the image at all. • Overall condition: The place is outdated and clearly in need of major renovation. Feels like faded glory rather than a vibrant hostel.

Unique hostel with top-views and great staff

I have been in the 3-bed dorm. The hostel is unique with great sea view from window. Can't have that view for such a low price. All was simple but o.k., just the floor a bit dusty. I had no reading light at bed. No lockers in room. Great friendly staff, always in good mood. Bathroom simple but o.k. with shower curtain. I had to share with 2 other people only. They offer dinner buffet for 15 € including glass of wine and breakfast buffet for 8 € . Both very good and it was good to have it because most restaurants still closed in early April. This was low season, so at this time it was also quiet in the hostel. The 10-€ shuttle to airport was a good choice, all good and punctual. On sundays , no buses im off-season to Agios Gordios, so you would need that service. Taxi very expensive, 40 to 45 € from Corfu Town to hostel.

8.0 / 10.0

Worth the price, but wasn't too pricey.

Breakfast was simple but still very tasty. Great bang for your buck.

The bathroom wasn't up to ,u standards but no other one in Greece was and the hostel was a little out of the way if you wanted to do things.

A scam

Volunteers are very friendly. Unfortunately the direction is not reachable and does not do their job.

I waited yesterday for the shuttle at the port that never came, in spite of the several confirmations and the appointment. I tried to call the hostel 7 times, but nobody answered. After I finally managed to get a taxi that charged me 50€, I got at the hostel at 23:15, and the receptionist told me that the shuttle was on his way (almost two hours after the time !) and when I asked what they could offer to do as a compensation for all this, she said it was my choice to take a taxi and not wait for the shuttle (!!!). How much time am I supposed to wait if I have nonody to let me know that the shuttle is indeed going to come ? How come nobody took the time to let me know me about this important delay ? Worse, how come nobody picks up the phone at a hostel ?

super social affordable stay in Corfu

heaps of activities super social- wasn’t there when beach bar was open but participated in beach day trip, quad bike tour, sunset cliff jumping and sunset cave swims which were all great. WhatsApp group always has something going on. Organizing shuttle from airport/ and to port was easy. my flight was delayed an hour and they came and collected me from airport at 11:30pm which was much appreciated and avoided paying 50E for a taxi. free lounges and umbrellas at private beach was awesome. 5 min walk into town l. was cleaner than previous reviews had stated

dorms not cleaned daily, shower flooded within 2 mins, massive property lots of stairs if staying beach side to go reception but they have a luggage driver you can request which was great

Everything was okay!

Good that there’s a shuttle service. Staff are nice.

I didn’t like the ATV tour - didn’t actually do anything so you’d be better off hiring your own ATVs for a day and beach hoping!

I don't recommend this hostel.

The hostel is located in Agios Gordios, a nice place to visit. They have shuttle to the airport or bus station.

The hostel was very dirty, specially the rooms, they didn't clean it! The shower was bad, so the bathroom was a complete mess and so disgusting, the floor was always wet and dirty. I lost a t-shirt in the room, because I forgot it on the bed, and they didn't return it, they just said they didn't find it. Everybody (3 girls) did check out that morning, I was the last to do it. So, one person from the stuff take my t-shirt for her!

Worst hostel I have ever been. Isolated and with very rude staff

Nothing. The worst I have been in my life and the first I would make a complaint after 3 years living in hostels

have been 3 years traveling in a row and living in hostel. That is my first complaint and bad review cause this is the WORST hostel I ve ever been. Reasons: 1-Thanks to the lack of information of the staff we spent 3,5 h in the general hospital, which was not reachable by public transport (we rented a car for 90 eu) to get some antibiotics cause they didn’t tell us that there is a public health center where we can also get attendance for free as Europeans. They were rude and get mad cause we said we didn’t have 80 eu to pay the private doctor, who is for sure his friend. Terrible behavior when you ask for some info as well. 2-Besides this, getting to your room will cost you a work out of incontable inclines and stairs. Is a really tough hike everyday several times 3- The hostel is so old, bathrooms are tiny and the people staying are bellow 21 years old. 4-I am a party animal and I choose the hostel because of the party but the atmosphere is far from being good. And there is no where to go afterwards. 5- location is so isolated, far away from everything. You need a car. There are no pharmacies nearby, for example. 6-No kitchen and if you ask for it politely as a simple question they answer with very bad manners that ;”what do you think, this is a hostel”. As hostels doesn’t have to have a common kitchen. Trust me, I have been living in hostels for 3 years and 90% of hostels have a kitchen but I didn’t reply her.

Nice place, good access to the beach, a bit far from the main city/ other places but easy to get a scooter in the to

Good communication and support, very welcoming. Good access to the beach and has a nice pool.

Not the most comfortable beds, bed adequate.

Good stay for a good price

Great activities, fun parties, free daybeds and umbrellas was nice. Food they served was good and our private room was clean and had a great view.

Far to get to other parts of the island. The bus system is good so you can get around, but it takes 40 minutes to get to corfu town, then another 40 minutes plus to get anywhere else.

Strange vibes!

We loved the location of our room, super close to the beach and beach bar. There were lots of options offered at the hostel (facilities/activities) e.g SUP'ing, kayaking, varieties of food options ect. The maids were sooo lovely and accomodating!!! We loved that each night there was a different fun theme for the events. The frappe's at the bar were UNREAL - best in corfu!! Also, we loved the american guy working at the bar.

The whatsapp group was so toxic (including volunteers speaking to guests rudely in the chat.). The vibe of the hostel in the general was odd, with minimal unity during the day. We found it bizarre that people did not really hang out in communal spaces (like the pool) until very late at night (1am-4am). The receptionist was not very helpful and kind of rude when we had enquiries about the bus schedules / ATV hire etc. Our door lock did not work and they were not able to assist for over 24 hours.

Lots of climbing uphill, rude staff but great parties

The event on Saturday was really fun and then hotel had its own club that was great for the parties. The people staying there were all really friendly and everyone seemed to get on really well. There is a WhatsApp group of all the events that were happening which was great to get everyone partying

The shuttle service seems to change time everyday and nobody told us what time the shuttle was running when we booked it. We told them before we left England that our flight was delayed by two hours and what time we would arrive and they replied this was fine and the bus would meet us. We arrived to no bus there and waited over an hour. When we contacted the hotel, they were rude and blamed us saying the bus expected us an hour before we even landed and said as we missed it we had to get a taxi because the next shuttle was not for another hour and a half. They should send the bus timetable by email so people are at least aware of this. Many people I spoke to had the same issue. When we arrived after paying for the taxi, the girl on the desk was rude and blamed us again even though we had the email confirming they knew the flight was delayed. When I arrived I was also placed in the wrong room and after an hour was told I had to repack and change room. My friend and I also asked if we could be in the same room and were told multiple times there was no availability, even though both of us had an empty bed in each room the entire trip. My room had no air con in a 40 degree heatwave and the bathroom smelt of sewage. It was also dirty and was not cleaned by staff and there was no hook on the wall for the shower head so every shower was a struggle. The complex itself is very far apart and it took 10-15 mins walk up hill and up lots of steps to get from the pool back to reception/rooms. The pool was also very small and more like a large jacuzzi. The staff did not really tell us anything and seemed to be annoyed when we asked, even things like where is the pool and where is breakfast. Most of things I found out from other people staying there

Bad

I liked that the place was right in front of the beach.

NO RESPECT FOR SLEEPERS. My experience does not mean that every time. I believe it depends on people and time. The pink palace has a bar and the party starts from around 11pm until 3 am more or less. After the party people still continued party at jacuzzi until 6 am. I am a person who fall asleep easily and sleep deeply, but it was totally impossible to fall asleep after being waken up by those people. It was completely loud. I think the place is a perfect place if you would like to party. Definitely not for people who want to sleep and rest for your adventure.

Reall enjoyed the vibe and location

Perfect location, right on the beach and close to restaurants, not close to Corfu town but close to green bus stop to take you to town and they have a shuttle bus for 10 euro to airport and port

Booked an aircon room with ensuite and got a fan room with a shared bathroom. Rooms are small and bathrooms are not nice, but it’s a beach hostel so it’s not that bad

Really nice place to stay if you want to have fun!

There are many different areas in the hostel! Beach bar, restaurant, jacuzzi, basketball court, Disco.

Some places were too far and you had to walk uphill

Best social hostel in corfu

I really like location, sunbeds free and the social activities 😁

Maybe some might say bathrooms are old/dirty, it's uphill to get back on the street and there's no kitchen/fridge to put your stuff.

Pleasant

decent location to the beach.

I wouldn’t advice staying for longer than a night or two. i stayed for one night and i’m glad that was the case. the lady at the reception was awfully rude and clearly hated her job. i’ve heard horror stories about her from other travellers in different hostels (someone didn’t want to pay €15 for laundry so the receptionist dumped her dirty laundry all over the floor and counter- leaving her to pick it up). you can’t relax in the bar area as they play awful music obnoxiously loud at all hours. the rooms were small and cramped and the bathroom was filthy. isn’t much to do in the surrounding area.

Good but not so good

a lot of activities organised every day, free beach service with sun beds and umbrellas, lunch available on the beach too at super decent prices. all meals were available at the property at little extra price, super useful. shuttle service available from and to the airport at very convenient price compared to other offers

the trip from the airport to the hostel was crazy, the speed of the driver was out of this world and with the streets you have in Corfu I’d be more careful. cleaning ladies did not knock once when coming in the room to change the towels. no sockets next to the bed despite being listed as such, shower so small and badly placed that the whole bathroom gets flooded. not all the people from the reception staff and the beach + bar was pleasant

6.0 / 10.0

Shared rooms definitely not the best

Nice pool, lovely beach right under the hotel, cool bar, breakfast and dinner buffet were pretty alright. The location is a bit hard to get but they have a transfer. I suggest you go there to stay a few days in the area and do some activities. It didn’t look accessible enough to move around from there. The town is cute and the beach is perfect with amazing sunsets.

Cleanliness was awful! Beds were super uncomfortable. Bathrooms leaking and clogged. Lack of plugs. No lockers or any kind of closet in the room. Poor lighting.

Dirty and old rooms.

The room was very small, old and dirty. The floor was sticky/Greasy. The beds were awful. You felt the springs of the matress in your back and the pillow was rock hard The bathroom was old and not very clean. It was a long walk from the reception to the buildings at the sea. The staff at the reception wasn't very friendly nor did they communicate all the information very well. All together paid more than they deserved.
