Lovely place, good location.
 
Thanks for a really relaxing holiday

We have just booked to go back to Loxides and it will be our 7th year. We just love this place and Yanni and Richelle are so welcoming and cant do enough for you.  These previous negative comments from 'guests' obviously are spending too much time following the cleaner round looking for pubes on the mop.  You cant please everyone but the amount of repeat guests speaks for itself!!
We met a couple this year at Loxides  and had a fantastic  time as we do every year, and we have booked up to go back together next year and they are taking their family too. So 12 of us will be  hitting Loxides in July next year.
There are many other guests we have met over the years that go back at the same time each year and we all just pick up where we left off the previous holiday. So Yanni you better get some more tricks up your sleeve for next year

Loxides hotel

 

Just had one of the best holidays ever!

Me my family and friends found sidari ideal as it catered for us all, its very welcoming for families and has great night life for me and my friends.

 

Loxides hotel is a beautiful hotel set in lush gardens and opposite the beach near the canal d la mour!

Its Ideal for lazy days round the pool, games and activities and all round entertainment.

The Loxides is family run, with richelle running the bar during the day, which provided everything you need from drinks, ice lollies and meals all great value, quality and served with a smile by the friendly staff.

 

Evenings are Yani's time to run the bar and the drinks get flowing and the games and tricks start which gets everyone involved which brings the guests together making it a great atmosphere!

 

The rooms are spacious and contain more than you will need for your stay but if you do think of anything just ask the helpful cleaners or the staff and they are only to happy to help!

 

I can 100% recommend Sidari and the loxides hotel for every kind of people, its ideally situated for staying local or for hiring cars and exploring the island!

 

Just like to thank and say hi to all at loxides !!

 

The Logan family xx

Just come home from a beautiful holiday at the Loxides apartments, with my partner and 7 year old son (Innes). Rochelle and Yanni are brilliant very helpful and approachable, the cleaners did a wonderful job again very helpful. It was a lovely place to stay with beautiful surroundings, lots of lovely places to eat and a big thank you to loxides for making us feel so welcome. Rochelle a big thank you for making all the cheese toasties for Innes, see you next year

click to enlarge Just had our second holiday at Loxides and it was excellent, we all know the staff are fabulous, at your beck and call, the apartment are fantastic, and the area, well what's to say, it's beautiful, couldn't possibly be better situated for any one, there is some thing for every one and yes, we will be returning next year, it is not just about having a holiday, it's sharing time with wonderful people in wonderful surroundings, Richele and Yannie are fantastics, and we hate leaving them, they hold a genuine interest in there guests and love nothing better than getting to know them. All my love to everyone at Loxides, see you all next year cos we will be back, no doubt about it.

We returned from Sadaris early this morning, in short we had the most exciting, memorable holiday you can ever wish for. Richelle and Yanni (the owners) are really down to earth friendly people – god knows how they keep going after all the hours they put in! Tony who mans the bar during the day is extremely friendly and will always point you in the right direction….just ask! Pedro – Richelle & Yanni's son is always knocking around somewhere on the complex and is also a great source of information (just keep any ladies well clear from him; he is a true ladies man!).

 

Whilst there we did have one day of bad weather which ended in 8 hours of solid rain (unusual freaky storm!), our ground floor room got flooded due to the volume of water, but as good old humanity prevailed many people mucked in helping Yanni get the pumps going to get rid of the water, other guests put us up in their rooms and by 10.30pm we aborted to a well deserved, although very wet beer. By morning the army of cleaners had cleaned all the rooms, supplied new furniture and we were back in (all before I had even woken up!) To be honest this night in particular was the best out of the holiday despite the rain and flooding purely because it displayed how people can really bond in times of need, nobody moaned we got on with it, did what we could and drowned our sorrows in the bar with Yanni and his family - well done all.

 

A great time, well recommended to any body of any age and of any background. The complex was spotless, the location perfect (quiet, but within a walking distance to some very good nightlife) the bar food good and hospitality excellent. The important thing is to ask Yanni, richelle, Pedo, Tony or Costa about the area….they live there, they know!

 

I'm not the kind of guy which tends to boost people's ego's or even compliments people but on this occasion they get an overwhelming thumbs up! Feel free to email for any comments r.farrell@farrdenn.co.uk

We were at Loxides in August couldnt get enough so we went back in September this year, we had a brilliant time as always. Richelle, Yanni, Tony are brilliant but we cant forget the maids Linda & Mary they deserve great TIPS off everybody for doing a great job on the apartments, and also Duncan for keeping everything spick & span. We hope Richelle gets to see more of that beautiful sun. See you all next year at our 2nd home.

Joanne G           

we went to loxides in July this year we couldnt get enough of it so we went back in september its like our 2nd home. Every body is brilliant Rochelle, Yannis, Tony and we cant forget the cleaners Linda & Mary also Duncan who keeps every thing looking great. THEY ALL DESERVE BIG TIPS OFF EVERY BODY . See you all next year keep up the good work.

You dont need a sense of humour to enjoy yourself at Loxides but it helps!
Our family go every single year and we cant see that changing soon, back again in June and as we have been going for a while we have become used to some of the practical jokes always doing the rounds.
Yanni, Rochelle and the rest of the family are as friendly as you could ask for and always willing to help or lend a sympathetic ear, always ready with advise on where to eat but the food on offer @ Loxides aint at all bad if you are after a freshly prepared snack. The pool is lovely and well kept, with a good supply of sunbeds and parasols. The apartments are lovely and also kept to the highest standard.
All in all i would highly reccomend Loxides Appts to anyone considering a holiday in corfu, look at it this way, Loxides Appts are the main reason we travel back time and again, its more like going to visit friends!!

i have just read all the comment posted on this site, and although the majority agree with me and my husband, there are a few unwarrented reports amongst them. the loxides complex is fantastic, well situated, just a stones throw from the beach and central to all sidari as to offer. the accomodation was very clean, comfortable and provided all the requirements for a self catering holiday. 

Richelle and Yannie are a fantastic couple, working extremely hard form dawn till dusk to make sure guests have the best of everything.  Yannie is one of the funniest guys i've ever met with his gags and practical jokes, he's a real great friendly guy. Richelle is fantastic, we had a great laugh, she loves chatting to the guests, and having a laugh. They both work real hard to make sure the guests get the best of their holiday, and for me and my husband and most of the other guests who have placed comments on here, thats exactly what they did.
for those who didn't enjoy their holiday i'm very sorry for you. loxides is the best holiday i've had and believe me i've travelled, that why in 2 weeks i'll be back there enjoying sidari, loxides and best of all catching up with Richelle and Yannie.
Have a good holiday folks - make your own mind up, i assure you, you won't regret it.

Our first time in Corfu staying in the Loxidies Apartments on 21/8/06 two of us for 1 week and two for 2weeks....fantastic holiday we all had. Loxidies Apartments is in a perfect location, just a 5 min walk from the main strip and Loxidies itself was lovely....really nice swimming pool, rooms very clean and well equippted and very helpful staff! will be back next year staying at the Loxidies Apartments!!!!....just one thing to be mentioned...the noise one night during the first week of our stay....just making sure you didnt think it was us girls keeping the whole complex awake!

hi we enjoyed another week at loxides this year,we have just booked for next year .there will be five of us this time though as my son is bringing a friend look forward to seeing everyone next august

Julia N           

click to enlargewe went to loxides in may 06 and spent 2 fantastic weeks, the apartment are fantastic, cool and welcoming, cleaned regular to high standards. we enjoyed it so much the moment we got back we booked again ane are going at the end of sept again for 2 weeks. richelle and yannie are fantastic, they will help were ever possible and keep you entertained all holiday, especially yannie with his constant gags and practical jokes, all in good taste.  as for sidari itself it's just like a peace of heaven theres everything you could want all within a 5 min walk of the apartments, some thing for all ages, and if you like to walk, in just under an hour you could be sat at sunset beach, watching the most beautiful sunset you might ever see, if walking isnt for you, get a taxi, it is well worth a visit. we didn't just like loxides and sidari we loved it. enjoy.

Can anyone tell me about Loxides,Sidari??????

got back from a 2 weeks holiday in sidari (loxides) put a post on earlier but its disappeared lol had a great time and would definately come back!! we heard alot of bad things about sidari so were a little unsure before we arrived...but once we got there we realised it was all a load of s**t!!! the smell of the river wasnt noticable and it wasnt at all like "blackpool on speed" (comment read on the internet) the clubbing was great but if u fancied a quiet night then there were plenty more relaxed places to eat and drink.the appartments were great,as was the maid service and the staff were all friendly and helpful (i recommend some of tonys pancakes haha)

s**t hot!

really wish i could be in some way controversial and write something that differs with what's been already said, but i really can't. top week basking in the sun, dousing my liver in sub-zero amstel and giving all and sundry the rather unfortunate sight of my semi-naked torso. not at all your run-of-the-mill holiday accomodation, great location, great owners / staff who seem willing to do anything to help and assist, and you'll find it suits well both young guns, families, and those of us who prefer sitting around the pool fully clothed, reading people's friend and complaining how they had diarrhoea once in magaluf.
 
in fact the only complaint i'd have about the holiday would be the flight - olympic really should look to sack flyjet off. although the pilot / first officer sounded in great form (they would be - they had a full cockpit to themselves), the plane was like something off the set of 'lost'...only with less holes. christ sakes, i'm six foot tall and used to flying short-mid haul on crappy budget airlines, but this was intense. you have more room to move strapped in an electric chair with 9000 volts running up your anus.

April M           

 
We have been to Sidari many times and absolutely love it.  Spotted the Loxides Apartments this year and were thinking of booking them for next year as they look lovely.  Just one concern - we wondered if you ever got a 'smell' from the river?   Would love to hear comments about this and also any other comments regarding the apartments i.e. cleaniness, how often cleaned, how often sheets/towels changed etc
 
Thanks

Fantastic Holiday, apartments where excellent, cleaned to the highest standard, Yanni and rochelle were fantastic, great hosts, new worker tony looked after us all, with his culernary skills, kids loved it, top food in Catus Jacks just down the road from the apartments, everything a family could want, as Arnie would say ' i'll be back'.

For gillian. Weather will  still be hot. Everything in the resort will be open . It dosn't start to close until well into october. Loxides apartments are brilliant and ideally positioned for the beach and shops, tavernas etc. and only 10 min walk to resort centre. Dont book any trips with your rep as there are numerous shops where you can book exactly the same trips for much less.  

Gillian U           

 
We are going here 1st week in September.  Never been to Corfu before - so hope we are ok.  Can anyone tell me what the weather will be like at this time and also will everything in the resort still be open and available i.e. trips etc.
 
Thanks v much

John S           

Returned home after another fantastic holiday with Richele. Yanni and family.  The apartment have all been re-vamped and are great especially with the air conditioning.  Nothing to much for Richele and Yanni they always wants to please.  Staff very polite and the grounds are kept in a superb condition.  We are already looking to book for next year and this will be our fifth year at the Loxides, it is just like a home from home.

Darren M           

hi everyone at loxides

Me and my family went to loxides in summer 2004 (all 23 of us) we had an amazing time.
Some of us are going  back in July, Can't wait to see everyone again but this time we won't get caught by Yanni's party tricks hehe

                                       See you soon

Tahmara M           

 We were at the Loxides 4 years ago, we had a great holiday, the bar is brilliant. Yanni made me lots of different cocktails, nothing was a bother to them. We have been to different places, but nothing will beat the loxides. So we are going back next year, trying to book now, but the brochures are not available yet, don't worry we are coming on our own!, so get stocked up on the alcohol you have plenty time, and get the cocktail shaker out. See you next year

My wife little lad josh and i stayed at the loxides in may 04. The only down side we had was the maid service but hey you cant win them all.  other than that it was one of the best holidays we had by far the weather was excellent the pool was nice and the apartments were clean and the bar was the best part. The host Yanni and son pedro were top draw they were funny and always doing jokes on people and keeping us entertained. We used to go out round sidari for food and round the other bars then made sure we ended up back at yannis bar as something was always happening. We made some good friends there and still keep in regular touch with them still to this day so we owe it all to you yanni, i would recommend this place to aclick to enlargenyone as it is such a fun place and for us yanni made our holiday so memorable, so thanks yanni! we plan on going back this year so see you soon yanni and pedro

We are going back for the fourth year and we are looking forward to seeing Yanni, Richelle and family.  They are very friendly and cannot do enough for their guest to make sure they have an excellent holiday.  We are taking friends with us this year. The apartments are clean and the staff are excellent.  Pool well kept and if something does go wrong Yanni and Richelle go out thier way to help.

Alanna W           

Oh my god! Me and my parents first went to Loxides like 4-5 years ago, thats when we met pedro, costa and his lovely parents, wow i cant believe I found this site by coincidence lol.

Pedro was the first guy I fell in love with. I still have the photos
 
Excellent accomodation, great location. Amazing service.
 
Pity you wont remember me and my dad pedro. He adored you.

Joanne G           

We had a brilliant time at the Loxides in August 2005. Lovely gardens & Pool the apartment was excellent, must be great we are going back there next year August 2006

Robert R           

 We had  a great two weeks at the Loxides. Apartment 411 was fab, spacious clean and comfotable, I reckon we had the best apartment on the complex but I know they are all of the same standard of excellence. Maid service is fab and thorough. Security and safety of your belongings in your apartment is not a worry. Mozzies are lethal at night though. pool and grounds are beautiful and well tended, a dream really. Ignore the reps tours and car offer there are better offers on the main sadari strip and car hire just up from the Loxides on the left, we found the cars good. A definate trip for you must be to Parga and paxod, brilliant day also the blue lagoon. Thanks again to Yianni, Richelle and all the staff who made the stay worthwhile. Rob & David

Sarah W           

I have just spent 2 weeks at the Loxides apartment and had a fantastic time. The apartments are well looked after by all the staff. The apartments are situated in a quite area but a close to the shops ,  restaurants etc... The apartments are run by a family who are all really nice and friendly there make you welcome from when you get there to the minute you go home, there all work very hard to keep you entertained and make your holiday enjoyable. Rochelle works really hard, she is very friendly and chatty and is alway's smiling. Yannis is also very friendly and keeps you entertained from day to night with his jokes and tricks he works hard too. Then there is Pedro who is there youngest son he works hard too to keep you entertained and to have a good laugh. There are all a very nice family. There have a older son costas who we didn't meet much but he was a friendly person.

The rooms are all very clean and tidy the maids are in nearly everyday making sure of this. And Alex who works behind the bar works hard too cooking the meals.
 
There has been reviews about these apartments been too close to the smelly canal but i have  been there 2 weeks and only smelt it a couple of times and it was not that bad.
 
The apartments have 2 pools one for small children and the other a bigger pool. There are both well maintained  but like anywhere else there is not a lifeguard so children will have to be accompanied by a adult. I enjoyed my stay here very much and will be looking into staying here again.
 

Paul M           

We just got back from 2 weeks in sidari after staying at the Loxides apartments....they are of a good size and location is great even though the canl which runs alongside STINKS.......

Richelle and Yannis are far from the perfect hosts and unless you are in the bar spending your hard earned Euros then they aren`t interested.....
 
We found them to be both brash and Rude especially Richelle......especially when all Yannis seems to do is prop up the Bar.....
 
We spent 1 day around the pool but the rest of the time there was just no space.... a sign asking not to reserve sunbeds had clearly been ignored and by 9am there were none to be found.....
 
Fortunately their were plenty of great pools close by......
 
The Olympic rep was rubbish and had no useful information to give and was of no use to us at all.......................!!!
 
All this considered we still had a great holiday but could have been so much better had the hospitality been a whole lot better......
 
 

Dominique P           

me and my family stayed at the loxides apartmennts last august and it wasd the best holiday we ever had! the apartments were clean becuase my family had 2 and my mates had another 2 apartments and they was all proper clean so i don't know what people are going on about! the owners re ded nice and so is pedro! i am going back there next year wiv all me mates cos it is class! x

Larry P           

Good news Yanni and Richelle have just informed me that the Loxides will be available next year with Olympic Holidays and although at the present time the Loxides does not appear in the 2006 brochure online it will Soon.

Robert R           

Thanks Viki for your help about air con and safety deposit boxes. Its the 31st August now and looking forward to arriving at the Loxides on the 13th. Everyones comments are appreciated about the Loxides, I changed my booking from the solamou appartments Ipsos to the Loxides. All I ask is that it is clean and safe and comfortable. Which the solamou by all accounts was not.

Anyway a holiday is what you make of it and a good base is paramounts . Looking forward to the two weeks there. Rob

Robert R

Hi, did anyone confirm if the Loxides has air con and safety deposit boxes

Larry P           

Another great holiday at the Loxides. We were in room B52 which used to be room 102, it was clean and tidy and the maid service was very good. Yanni, Richelle, Pedro and Alexis were the perfect hosts.

There is a Quiz night every Wednesday night which started on the 24th August.
The Canal d' Armour was fantastic and although the beach at Sidari could do with cleaning now and again it was still very good.
We enjoyed the meals at The Family Bar, Fagins, Mythos, Olympic and best of all Boleros.
See you again next year Loxides.

Well 3 weeks to go, can someone please be so kind to respond to my can u helps ! Just want to know about safety deposit boxes and air con in appartments, as there is nothing in the brochures. Thanks

Steve B           

After working all year, looking forward to our stay Sept 5 to 19.Our party of 8 all in our 50's enjoy good company and mix well but are not intrusive. We know we will have a good time, knowing family friends who have stayed at Loxides.Politeness costs nothing and brings its own rewards.

Robert R

Did anybody get back to me on air con and safety deposit boxes at the loxides

Robert R

At the Loxides Apartments, are there safety deposit boxes in the appartments and do the apartments have air conditioning. Visiting on 12th September 2005 for 2 weeks. Thanks

Our first visit to Corfu and we were not disapointed. The friendliness shown by Yianni, Richelle and the team made us feel very welcome. Thank you all very much. The Mythos and the Olympic were great eating places, the beach was just over the road, and the sun shone. The company was good, Yianni and Richelle were kind, polite and organised (my daughter thought it a shame that Pedro supports Chelsea, but hey !!!)

We will return next year.....

JUST OVER 2 WEEKS TO GO AND ME , MY FAMILY AND SOME FRIENDS ARE OFF TO LOXIDES AGAIN.

PERSONALLY THIS WILL BE MY 7TH TIME AND I KNOW I'M GOING TO ENJOY IT JUST AS MUCH AS BEFORE.
I'VE NOT READ THE COMMENTS ON THIS SITE FOR A WHILE AND I'M STILL AMAZED AT HOW SOME PEOPLE SLAG THE PLACE OFF AND HAVE A POP AT YANNI AND RICHELE.
PROSPECTIVE VISITORS PLEASE TAKE NOTE.............THE BAD REPORTS ARE WELL OUTNUMBERED.

our holiday was the best i have had so far and trust me it wont be the last at that hotel! the family were lovely and very friendly. i would reccommend this hotel to everyone. we will definatly return next year!!

 
leonie (18/7/05 - 1/8/05) room 410!!

I'd just like to add that I know that Richelle reads these comments and I hope that she only takes on board the good & positive comments

Heather M           

I agree with Vicki.  The brochure certainly needs to be updated and basically what is said on this website about Loxides, Yanni, Richelle or Sidari is rubbish.  I've just been onto the Olympic website and ordered the 2006 brochure.  We are more than likely to be returning to Loxides. 

As mentioned by previous people that if you are looking for a 5 star hotel then don't look at the place but if you want a really enjoyable holiday then do go to Loxides.  Obviously some people keep themselves to themselves but if you try to speak to other people you will find that everyone is really nice and they just want a good holiday too.
 
We did have one run in with our neighbours (the BBQ couple) but they obviously don't know how to enjoy themselves & were just there to get drunk & abuse people.  If you are like that then please stay away - you just ruin everyone's holiday.
 
Get a life & enjoy your holiday.  People make me angry when they slag places off.  Please realise that Yanni & Richelle work very hard to keep their business going and I'm sure that you would not like to read things on here (that are obviously not true) put yourself in their shoes & I bet most of the people didn't even complain!

Viki S           

is anyone else finding all this tit for tat as amusing as me??? chill out people

 
it sounds like you all need another holiday !
 
 

Chris L           

Siobhan (from US or UK, whichever). If you care to read our other comments you'll find we're NOT serial complainers. In fact I think you'll find glowing praise for all other venues.

For the record - just so you stop making assumptions about how many times we've been to Greece - it was my second time to the country. My fiance Kerrie has been 14 times. Hardly Greek 'virgins' are we?
Still, you stick to your assumptions - you obviously know us better than we know ourselves.
 
We're merely using our right to make comments on how we found Loxides. Like I said, I hope my comments were taken constructively as I didn't mean to offend.
 
Well done about your assumption that we are Big Brother fans - one correct assumption out of many is pretty good going. Sadly we only got to watch it once during our 14 night stay as we were actually on holiday and found other things to do at night, such as visit the excellent Mythos, the friendly Blondy's, laughing at the hyptonist's poor jokes, admiring the beautful sea views from BED bar, passing the time of night with friends we made out there and generally doing what most people do on a holiday.
 
We just happen to expect more for our money. The only assumption WE made was that our hotel would match the 3 stars that were advertised in our brochure.
 
It's just a shame people are unable to make comments without being subjected to personal and ill-informed attacks.

It was our 5th year at Loxides and I say every year it was the best holiday ever and this year was no exception.  These people that complain about Loxides have obviously not been to Greece before, we have been to very basic greek accomodation and this is luxury in comparison.  It is a perfect location with the beach  about 20 mtrs, ideal quite location away from the main strip ,  Yanni and Richelle are the best hosts with nothing being too much trouble. Our rooms were cleaned  & changed every 2 days and the bins emptied every day.  The people that have got complaints  about Loxides are obviously serial complainers wherever they go, this year there was at least 6 parties  that we have met every year going there at the same time as us so that says it all really . If it was that bad would we keep booking to go back every year??????

Me and my boyfriend went to Corfu, Sidari and stayed at the Loxides apartments, It was Great!!

We stayed there for 2 weeks and really enjoyed our stay! It's just a 5minute walk from the main resort of Sidari, bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc... Look out for Falcon Bar and Calypso they're really nice! The best places to eat are Bed and the chinese above bed was lovely too!!
We made friends with alot of people tht work in the bars everyone is very helpful and friendly!
The beach was across the road from loxides, it's a long sandy beach very nice although we preferred the pool!
Richelle, Yanni and Pedro were very friendly the owners of the Loxides, they made us feel very welcome... Also Yanni and Pedro were good at entertaining us at night in the bar with their tricks lol! some of them were really good!
We really enjoyed our stay at Loxides and would definatley reccommend it and go again sometime in the future!
 

Siobhan S           

Chris and Kerrie, you really have a problem, and it's not Loxides. When you go to Greece you go for a Greek experience and to meet new people. You went for Big Brother and cheap everything. If you want to watch Big Brother stay in England. You are the type of people I would prefer not to meet on holiday. There is absolutely nothing wrong with loxides. I could name you bad accomodation in Sidari and some really unreasonable owners, Loxides is good and has affable and generous owners. Loxides is fairly new accomodation and is in an excellent location with nice staff and owners. I just don't understand where some of you are coming from. I don't owe these owners anything and we are not related but I find some of the comments that you are making hard to stomach as it is so far from our experience as to imagine that you must have lives in some other apartments with the same name. To all of you who have never visited Loxides, please go and make up your own mind, disregard the ill founded comments placed by people who clearly had some strange concept of what a holiday in Greece is all about

Claire J           

Me and my boyfriend have just arrived back early hours of this morning from Sidari, Corfu, Loxides apartments, we were there for 2 weeks!

We really enjoyed it, had a fantastic time! we would definatly go again!
We stayed in room 201 it's really not that bad its jus quite close to the bar and didn't like sitting on the terrace as people were right there lol!!
 
I would definatly prefer a room with a balcony we did ask the rep if we could change rooms as we did ask for a balcony in the first place but she wasn't very helpful, so we stayed put in room 201! In the end we got used to it and didn't mind!
 
The beach is lovely and only across the road lovely n sandy! The bars and restuarants are just a 5minute walk away, there are some lovely restaurants you can eat at which look out onto the beach and the sea, we ate and one called Bed most nice it was lovely also cheap lol! Also our favourite bar was Falcon bar we went in there every night also Calypso!!
The people who work in the bars are very nice and friendly they make you feel very welcome!
 
At the Loxides, Yanny, Richelle and Pedro were lovely and friendly! They aslo made you feel very welcome and Yanny made me laugh in the evening playing lots of tricks on me and other guest haha!! It was fun!! We made lots of friends!
Overall we really enjoyed our stay at the Loxides apartments and would reccomend it!

Viki S           

Sorry you had such a bad experience Miss K Hunt  - its really bizzarre how different your experience was to mine - i had never been to Loxides before and yet all the staff were fantastic - we didnt have to complain about anything (believe me i am not the sort to grin and bare things !) a couple we met though - rachel and Martin (room 510) couldnt open the shutters in their room and were quite worried about bringing it to Richelle's attention as Emma had warned us in the welcome meeting to be careful! When Martin told Richelle - she was fine - told them not to worry about it and sent the handy man up to fix it ! Maybe we all just got good rooms and there are some bad ones on the ground floor i dont know

For people who are booked and paid for to go Loxides - keep an open mind - whilst reviews are a great way to get insight into where you are staying - some peoples comments are tactless and will gear some people up for complaining before they even get there - and dampen the excitement to others waiting to jet off to their long awaited holiday - i was worried after reading Gemma's comments and instead of looking forward to arriving - half of me was dreading it - but i needn't have worried about anything all my famiy had a great time (including my husbands parents who are both a fair bit over 35!)
 

Chris L           

Room 404, oh dear. This is the short straw of all rooms.

It's on the ground floor and, from what I saw, the smallest of the lot.
 
Prepare yourself for the night-long glare of a bright light coming through the frosted window in your front door and the daily threat of being robbed. For some reason our cleaner insisted on leaving our toilet window wide, which can obviously have serious implications if you're on a day-long trip and someone decides to help themselves to your goods.
 
My job takes me to many places and of all the hotels I've ever stayed in, and in places far more basic than Corfu, I have to say Loxides is the worst of all. It was filthy.
 
As for Richelle, from my experience and from speaking to others she seems to care little for anyone under the age of 35. More so if you have the nerve to raise any issues with her. If you're of the just-grin-and-bear-it brigade then you should get on with her like a house of fire. But, sorry, I expect value-for-money and did not get it.
 
The rep Emma is even worse. You know you're in for an interesting holiday when she concludes her hugely underwhelming 'welcome' speech with "feel free to clap me now." After a muted response she snapped back,"no really I expect applause" (or words to that effect). It was actually disturbing.
 
She never once asked how anyone was and generally lacking in any enthusiasm or interest. Perhaps she was stiff miffed at her 'applause' moment.
 
I'm sorry, but when you pay good money for THREE STAR !!!!???? accommodation you expect much, much better and should not have to settle for poor standards. I only hope my comments are taken constructively and ensure the future visitors to Loxides enjoy better service, cleaner rooms and a more caring environment.
 
 

Kerrie H           

Before we start we want to make it clear we are not winging Anglos (read our comments on Mythos restaurant if you don't believe us...)

But Loxides was the worst place we have ever stayed at in Corfu, and I've been 14 times. We arrived to room 404 which hadn't been cleaned, a broken door lock which let in mosquitos, dirty bed sheets, dirty crockery in the dusty cupboards, filthy floor and a dirty toilet. Still, at least someone left us toilet rolls...
 
Our complaints were dealt with swiftly, but we felt for the rest of our fortnight's stay we were treated like s**t by Rochelle. There were no 'how are yous?', 'how's your holiday?' or any such pleasantries. On the other hand Yanni, Duncan and the barman were always pleasant and helpful.
 
We understand that this resort is popular with 'regulars' who return annually. Perhaps that is why we were treated as second-class citizens by Rochelle, who rather fancies herself as Peggy Mitchell. Suffice to say we will not be returning.
 
On the plus side, the pool was well maintained and very clean.
 
Three star class? As Jim Royle may say, My Ar*e
