Golden Mare - All Inclusive

Mario and team were great. Travelling solo - you don’t often get the service or room options but I had the best room and I was treated with such a genuine and warm welcome and stay. Food was good and hotel wasn’t over crowded in May. Any questions were answered quickly and they spoke great English also. Sincere thanks Mario and team.

Beautiful surroundings

It was a beautiful hotel, but there wasn’t much to do. The staff were very young and not as professional, although nice, and the cleanliness of cutlery,mattress and dining area wasn’t too great, overall it was a lovely time but wouldn’t book again

Bzgl. Essen, das essen ist jeden Tag dasselbe, wird wahrscheinlich von den Vortagen gesammelt, so wie es schmeckt einfach nir aufgewärmt. Die zimmer werden nicht anständig gereinigt Klopapier, sowie Handtücher, nicht aufgefüllt

The hotel is fairly large, on a steep hill. First impression was lots of accommodation with limited facilities. (1 pool, 1 table tennis, 1 pool table). The hotel staff are fantastic, make you feel welcome and very attentive. Breakfast was it/good but the select does not change much Lunches were nice with some variation. Mid afternoon snack, was a nice offering but felt a little like leftover from breakfast and lunch… in a way it was nice to see no food waste but disappointing at the same time. Dinner, good selection, daily variation. Best part of the meals was seeing some Greek food/desserts and they catered for the people that preferred there staples (pasta, chips, etc) They have evening entertainment with was a plus, negative was that you could hear it in the rooms. It was off season so lots of shops and restaurants were closed, I would say as a tourist you want to visit corfu after 10th May. Summarise: Nice hotel and views. Staff are awesome, go out of their way to make your stay good. A little far from the own and other shopping but the bus is just outside the property

Ωραιο ξενοδοχειο, πολυ ευγενικο προσωπικο αλλα: πηγαμε τις ημερες του Πασχα (ειχε πολυ κοσμο) και δεν ειχαμε ζεστο νερο τις περισσοτερες ημερες. Η αιτιολογια ειναι οτι «υπαρχει προβλημα στο boiler και οι τεχνικοι μας εργαζονται να το επιλυσουν… σε μια ωρα θα εχετε»!! Ειχαμε για λιγη ωρα χλιαρο νερο και μετα παλι περναμε τηλεφωνο να παραπονεθουμε για το προβλημα. Απαραδεκτο αυτες τις ημερες που ηρθε ο κοσμος στο νησι να μην υπαρχει ζεστο νερο!!!

Excellent check-in, very friendly. The entire experience from the airport to the hotel was perfect and the hotel is placed near a small beach woth a beautiful view over the Ionic sea and the island

An overall pleasant stay. The room was big and tidy. The bathroom however wasn't very clean. It had fungus growing at the bottom, but we reported it at the reception and it was fixed the next day. The restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes and also offers alternatives if you have gluten or dairy intolerance. The pool was clean. The tables around the pool area and the glasses used at the pool bar weren't clean. The staff is kind and helpful. Boattrips : The receptionist recommended the boat trip with Joy Cruises to see Paxos, Antipaxos and the blue caves. That was a total disappointment. We received only 45 min instead of 1.5hr in Antipaxos, the boat only drove past the caves. It never sailed inside the caves as mentioned in the trip description. Also, they never mentioned that you have to be a good swimmer to go off in Antipaxos. The caves was a highlight for us and we never got to experience it even though the seas were calm and we had enough time. We ended up sitting on the boat the whole day and was only able to get off in Paxos for 2 hrs. A total disappointment and Joy cruises refusing any refund and the hotel refusing any compensation for a recommendation that was not as promised.

Not a 4* hotel, 3* would be more likely. Average food, average room which had broken aspects. However staff were very friendly and attentive

The foodwas bed
