We recently stayed at Sandy Villas in Aghios Georgios, Corfu, and while there were some genuinely lovely aspects to our stay, there were also a few disappointing points that are worth mentioning for future guests. Starting with the positives, the staff were consistently friendly, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our stay, which really made a difference. The food was also a highlight, with a good variety and very tasty options at the main buffet. The location itself is beautiful, the beach is stunning and easily one of the best parts of the resort, and the outdoor pools are well-maintained, clean, and plentiful, giving you lots of choice for relaxing. We also had massages at the spa and a couples photoshoot during our stay, both of which were enjoyable experiences and added something special to the holiday. However, both were provided by third-party companies based at the hotel rather than by the hotel itself, and both were quite expensive. While we still enjoyed them, it was another example of extras that were not actually included despite the overall all-inclusive impression. However, there were a few issues that impacted our overall experience. On arrival, we had to switch rooms because the first room we were given had no WiFi connection, despite all rooms being advertised as including free WiFi. This was disappointing and not the smoothest start to our stay. Another major issue was with the showers in our room. The temperature was extremely unpredictable, constantly switching from very hot to freezing cold without us adjusting anything, which made showering quite uncomfortable. We were also disappointed with the drinks offering. Although the hotel is advertised as all-inclusive, a large portion of the drinks menu actually comes at an additional cost, which wasn’t clearly communicated beforehand and felt misleading. Another frustration was the lack of complimentary bottled water. With tap water not being safe to drink, we were surprised that there was no free top-up provided, meaning we had to pay extra just to have access to clean drinking water. Finally, the dining policy felt restrictive and not very transparent. Guests staying for five nights are only able to dine at the main buffet restaurant, while access to the à la carte restaurants (such as the Mediterranean or Gyros options) costs an extra €25 per person. This is included for guests staying seven nights or more, but this distinction was not clearly explained at the time of booking. To add to this, when we asked to make a reservation for the Gyros restaurant, we were told that it does not open until 1st May. This had not been disclosed at check-in, nor were the opening dates included in the resort leaflet/map we were given. Needless to say, this was very disappointing and left us feeling like our options were even more limited. Overall, this resort has a lot of potential, with beautiful surroundings, great food, and excellent staff. However, some of the facilities and policies don’t quite align with what you would expect from a five-star, all-inclusive experience. With a few improvements and clearer communication, it could be a much stronger offering.
