Stayed here for a week 16th - 23rd June 2008. We booked with Olympic and stayed in a Double bedded sea view room.
The room was on the top floor of the main building, so we had a fantastic sea view. Lots going on in the sea (cruise ships in and out of Corfu town, boats being hired from the Kontokali Bay hotel, the sea plane flying over) so plenty to watch. A bay view would have been no comparison. Corfu weather was hot and sunny, not a cloud in the sky! We got the courtesy bus one day to Corfu Town, which was well worth the visit the Old Fort. You have to book the courtesy bus in advance at reception

Kontokali Bay Hotel exceeded our expectations in terms of its facilities, the grounds were a lot bigger than we expected and the view from our room was the best view we have ever had in any hotel! The hotel staff were all friendly, and the food was quite good for a buffet style restaurant (particularly the desserts!). Lunch in the beach bar mainly consisted of barbecued meat etc, which was far too much for us at lunch time. Therefore we went to the supermarket at the end of the road every day to buy bread, ham and cheese etc and had our own picnic on our balcony!

The only (minor) negative points were:
The beach is not a private beach, as advertised. In fact a lot of locals use it, and sit on the sun loungers. On one occasion we went to the swimming pool, leaving our towels on the sunloungers on the beach, and when we got back one of the locals was sat on our loungers! They soon moved when we told them to! But there is no effort to stop other people using the beach, and the towel boy seems to charge some of them for use of the loungers (not sure the management are aware of this!).
The shower: it was a good quality shower, but the hose seemed to be too short, which meant it was not good for tall people, and the way it was arranged meant you could not get very close to the water. Very strange set up

the local area: it is not worth walking to Kontokali village or Gouvia Marina. Kontokali village is a road with grotty cafes, and you have to walk along a smelly, dirty road to get there. Gouvia Marina (described by Olympic as a cosmopolitan resort) was very quiet, with nothing going on (maybe June is too early in the season). We went to these places once, but were happy to have an evening stroll around the hotel grounds on the other nights!
All in all a very relaxing holiday, in a very pleasant hotel. No good if you like to walk out and about in an evening, but as I said before the hotel has plenty of grounds to walk around. It would be very difficult to beat the views.
