MarBella, Mar-Bella Collection

Not everything it promised to be, access to restaurants restricted.

We liked the sea view and the food was good.

We booked this hotel for our honeymoon. Absolutely Stunning property, and great staff. However, any other than top tier rooms look, feel and configured like motel 8 ( and we booked their premium room with sea view). Showers and sinks don’t drain and it feels like the rooms have not been updated since 1975. Also, if you don’t want to feel like you’re on a cruise ship with 0182736637373 small screaming children and water slides, do NOT book the hotel. Also, the bed is made from two twin beds and I was sleeping in the crack. There were numerous issues with the resort in addition to that. Staff seemed to be trying their best however we’re all discombobulated and had no idea where to even order a coffee for us at breakfast. There was tons of food splattered all over the furniture at breakfast as well, like beyond anything I’ve seen (I’m assuming the resort is short staffed and the staff that they have are barely keeping their heads above water). Upon our request to get a better room, we were offered an upgrade for the last two nights of our week long stay, which would mean we’d have to crouch in the noise box of an outdated minuscule room for several nights while attempting to sleep in a crack between two beds pushed together. False advertising doesn’t begin to cover it, I can’t even express how dissatisfied and disappointed we are, wasting two days trying to get a different room at this hotel and just trying to give them a shot. The photos of the property are not all true.

My wife and I stayed at Mar-Bella Corfu as part of our honeymoon. From the first moment we arrived and up until after we checked out and were on our way to the airport, the staff here have made us feel welcome, relaxed, and at home. Our stay has been delightful, from the excellent facilities, activities that were provided (we spent many a morning and afternoon lounging at the private beach, enjoying the pristine and crystal clear waters), outstanding service, and delicious food. Our only regret is having to leave, we can say with certainty that we will return again in the future, and can highly recommend a stay here. Magnificent.

Overall the hotel is nice, surrounded by mountains with spectacular sea view. It’s newly refurbished, especially the rooms were beautifully designed. Pros: Access to restaurant dining, the food was delicious in most places Additional perks if you have booked superior stay (e.g. boat trip, small treatment in their SPA, beach bag, little presents for kids etc.) Kids aqua park (water in the pool could have been wormer though) Cons As the hotel recently opened after winter, we felt that the hotel was understaffed and some of the amenities were not available (yoga sessions, wine testing, restaurants closed etc.) Kids club was at a very poor standards, little choice of kids activities, lack of organisation and late events, staff not trained. Also it was surprising that there was no outdoor playground for kids Spa facilities and amenities average Food choice at the buffet repetitive and basic

The hotel and general experience was great, however they sell it as coming with activities for children which basically there isn't, the childrens activities weren't there when they said they would be so if you plan a day staying in the hotel because there is an activity that sounds good there is a good chance it isn't actually on when you get there; staff kept saying well it's an external contractor who does it for us so we don't know anything about it. Would have been fine if they just said no it's not something we do but they advertise it pretty strongly so they get a poor review for not really trying. If i had know I may well have decided it wasn't quite worth what they were charging in the first place, ho hum.

It’s a beautiful property and we had a fantastic holiday with our 9 year old. The staff is courteous and the hotel is clean with enough things to do. There are many different options to eat even at the pool or at the beach.

Great for families but stay away if group of adults or couples visiting

The hotel was in a beautiful location, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the rooms were comfortable and the pools really lovely (could do with being a bit warmer though). The hotel is however badly let down by having too many guests, terrible lighting in the communal areas where evening entertainment takes place (please dim the lights!!). Most importantly however was the absolutely revolting food! It was the worst I have experienced in a hotel in years! Cheap, mass produced and tasteless. Please consider making less food of a higher quality. It is so sad seeing waiters clearing away platefuls of uneaten food on every table at each meal. Thankfully we found some fabulous restaurants in Corfu Town, however it involved a 30 minute drive each way. If the food was sorted out and there were less guests, I would have given it 5 stars!!

Lovely, friendly and helpful staff Great family hotel. Kids had lots of fun at the Aqua park. Loved the slides. Beach area was great, with lots of activities. Food was lovely, especially the seafood at the Deck Bar and Grill, by the beach. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would definitely come again.
