Kontokali Bay Hotel  // "The perfect Corfu hotel"

Situation has been described as isolated, but this is such a quibble - if you want peace and quiet, you've got it, together with a stunning view from the delightful and extensive beech acros to Greece. Sunbeds galore with free towels; warm sea; motor boat and pedalo hire and boat trips; good, spacious room with extra 'lounge' are where you could sleep one or two children; fine self-service restaurant with vast range of delicious food and variety; entertainment if you want it each evening at the beach tavern where you could also get a good bbq, drinks, or just a roll (all you need after the breakfast.

Free internet two PCs off the large, marbled-floor lobby. Easy to get into Kerkyra by a short stroll to main road - as previous reviewer said, buy tickets at little shop just on your right at that junction, then take care crossing the fast road to bus stop opposite and No 6 buses every 15 minutes. Gouvia is not that far: as you reach the junction with main road you almost immediately turn right. We went there eager to take a trip on a flying boat but sadly this business is no more. Otherwise nothing special about Gouvia. One thing of great interest is that the hotel is just two villas away from the fine Venetian villa which Geral Durrell stayed in and no one seems to know. You can see it very clearly from the boat jetty, situated in extensive wooded grounds looking out to sea, surrounded by a long stone wall. Impressive, beautiful, but sadly dilapidated

Please please please look after the little cats which frequent the hotel grounds. They are so hungry, and not in good condition. At the end of the lane which leads to the main road is a general store (they call these supermarkets!) which sells catfood and you can discreetly feed the cats in the eveing. You make a lot of friends as many people of all nationalities wandering by also stop and coo over them, especially over the kittens. The grounds are very pleasant, retaining many gnarled old olive trees and spruce which would have been there before. The staff of Kontokali Bay Hotel were kind and helpful, and efficient. Nothing at all to complain about and we felt very lucky to have found this comprehensively equipped hotel. We didn't even get to see the spa we were so busy on organised outings or bus trips out or enjoying the beach (it has a supply of games, by the way, such as ping-pong and netball). And the pronunciation is KonTAKali.
