    Wonderful guesthouse with amazing hosts, Rula and David were so helpful and kind. Rula even took us to her favourite restaurant which we greatly enjoyed. We had a fabulous time there and highly recommend them!

    The apartment is nicely designed, its very clean. Location is good for visiting other parts of island. The owners are very considerate and helpful. We were able to park our hire car at the front of the property. Stunning view from our own balcony. The mosquito screen was a great help. Thank you

    Our stay at this place was truly unforgettable! The location is exceptional, nestled into the hillside in such a way that you don't hear any noise from the nearby road, creating a peaceful and relaxing environment. The terrace, complete with a pool, is perfectly positioned to offer privacy and stunning views of the sea. The apartment itself is styled in a charming Boho vibe, which added to the incredibly cozy and relaxing atmosphere. We spent three amazing nights here, and the ambiance definitely played a big part in making our stay so enjoyable. The hosts were incredibly accommodating as well, always flexible with breakfast and drink orders, and ready to assist with recommendations or any help we needed. Their warm hospitality made the experience even more special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a serene getaway!

    Quirky, recently opened guesthouse with an amazing view over the sea, especially at sunrise. Small pool with terrace and sea view. Rooms recently decorated in vibrant colours. Absolutely delightful young Greek owners - a couple with a creative vision of their own style. Extremely helpful and welcoming.

    We had such a lovely time here and would absolutely stay again! Antares has a charming, colorful and Boho vibe. It’s just far enough outside of the town that you feel like you’re on a completely different island – everything is quiet, beautiful, and peaceful - But it’s so close enough that you can easily catch the bus or taxi into town. There are also enough, cute restaurants, and facilities and beaches within close walking distance to make your stay great. It was so charming and you can really feel the amount of love that went into their guesthouse. we woke up early one morning to catch a boat tour and saw the most spectacular sunrise I’ve ever seen! Highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing beach holiday

    Everything. Rooms are great with a balcony overlooking the sea and the pool. This place has a green garden with plants. It’s so quiet and the air is clean. In the afternoons after the beach there’s always some fresh breeze, perfect time to chill by the pool.

    I had to leave to get back to work

    Great location, peaceful with a fabulous view and the best hosts. It’s comfortable, clean, newly renovated with great WiFi. It had extra water stored in case of shortage, so there is always a back up supply. It is everything it said it was and much more. There’s a lovely pool, kept clean throughout the day, a great sundeck to top up your Vitamin D and happy hormones. The sun rises directly opposite. I only have to step out on to my balcony to see this morning glory. A great way to start the day. There are 3 pebbly beaches, from 80ms walk away. They’re quiet, and the pebbles are fantastic to discover some beauties, and play with, skim on the flat water. The sea is lovely to swim/float in, clear calm and salty, no sharks here, that I saw! Close enough to the international airport, 9kms. It’s in a great location to make a base and go out and discover the island and other islands, by bus, car or bike. It is on a regular and reliable bus route. Not far from Benitses, a bustling wee town with character, delicious food places, a great ice cream stall, a couple of small supermarkets, and a lively buzz. Seems to be most popular with couples and families, from all around the world. I felt comfortable and safe as a solo traveller. To make the most of it, stay at the Guesthouse for at least a few days. I would highly recommend staying for much longer. Two weeks was not long enough for me! I loved staying here. The lovely hosts made the two weeks extra special. They were so helpful, informative, welcoming, kind and made me feel really special. Thank you Roula, David and Olia.

    The hosts(Roula and David) are amazing professionals, always trying to make your stay and your experience as comfortable as it can be, going the extra mile if you have extra wishes or demands, 5 star cleanliness, the decor is cozy and eclectic, very good location between beaches and centre, we definitely will be going back next time we are in Corfu!!

    Firstly, the hosts were just incredible, friendly and accommodating! Super inviting and down to earth, the place matched their vibe. The property was right across the street from the sea, with stairs directly across from the property’s parking. The pool was an appreciated at the end of the day with panoramic views of the sea and mainland. Parking available for a scoot or small car 15min to Corfu town and 5min from Benitses, amenities are nearby..

    The owners of these cute apartments could not have been more welcoming! After a stressful flight delay and a late check-in, this apartment was a god-send and their welcome was just what we needed. Toiletries were provided, as were pool towels. Unfortunately we did not get the chance to enjoy the pool area and beautiful views as we had to leave very early the next day but I can imagine it would have been a peaceful spot to relax during the day!

    Many steep steps to get to the accommodation and due to our age makes it difficult Would be nice to have tea/coffee facility in room.

    Room had more character than normal bland hotel rooms. The view from balcony was superb especially the sunrise. Owners were very welcoming, friendly and helpful especially as we had to book late due to flight cancellation. Lovely place.

    Lovely view, disappointing hospitality

    – Upon arrival, we were not given the room we had booked through Booking. For the first night, we were placed in a room located on the side of the house, where the view was nowhere near what was shown in the photos of the reserved apartment. Instead of a full sea and pool view, we only had a partial glimpse of the sea from a narrow angle. – When we raised the issue with the host, they blamed Booking and said they would "look into it." Eventually, we were moved to the room we had originally reserved, but no apology or gesture of goodwill was offered. – Both rooms (including the one we had booked) were very small, with extremely limited storage. There was only one hook for hanging clothes and one trash bin, which was never emptied during our 4-day stay. – The property is accessed via a long staircase, which was not mentioned in the description — this can be important for families with young children or guests with mobility issues. – Reaching the nearest beach on foot requires walking along a very busy main road without a sidewalk, which felt quite dangerous. – On the day of departure, even though our flight was in the evening, we were not offered any option to store our luggage. The host simply sent a WhatsApp message telling us to check out by 10:00 AM. – Interestingly, after we raised the issue about not getting the correct room, a new photo showing the "side view" we experienced suddenly appeared on the Booking listing — a picture that had not been there before. – We chose this accommodation based on its extremely high rating, but in our experience, the service and overall value did not live up to the score. Given the shortcomings and the lack of hospitality, we found the place to be overpriced and underwhelming.

    - Despite our very late arrival due to a delayed flight, the host was flexible and did not charge any extra fee for the late check-in, which we appreciated. – The pool and the view from the correct apartment (the one we originally booked) were truly beautiful — a highlight of the stay. – There is a bus stop nearby, which makes it possible to reach Corfu town by public transport.

    It would have been nice to have a tea kettle and other basics in the room besides a mini fridge. I think this may have been a one-off situation, and I found the hosts to be very kind upon check in, though I was frustrated that they banged on my door at 11pm because they hadn't seen me all day. I'd gone out that morning and was quite tired with menstrual cramps, which one host knew, and was trying to rest. While I appreciate the concern, I felt like it was an overstep for hosts to check on me. Perhaps the difference between a guesthouse and hotel? I personally prefer more privacy.

    The property offers beautiful views of the sea surrounded by trees. It was nice to wake up to the sunrise each morning. All of the surrounding beach spots are gorgeous and were not crowded during my visit. The hosts were kind enough to grab bottled water for me after check in.

    The property is hillside so the entranceway had many stairs. We are an older couple and had no issues, but I would be wary if steps are a concern.

    The owners were just a delight. Extremely helpful, courteous, and went out of their way to accommodate our needs.
