Benitses - (Resorts on Corfu)

Craig S           

The Tsaki are approx 15 mins walk from Benitses. They are nice apartments, but are located up in a elevated position. However, the views are spectacular and the owners are very friendly. They are well maintained and cleaned regular.

 
You should enjoy your stay here. If you dont want to walk into Benitses the local bus stops at the bottom of the hill and takes 2 mins 

Corfu Town - (Resorts on Corfu)

Craig S           

To anyone who does not like Corfu town i have to ask why?

Its a fantastic place, with loads of cafes on the liston to chill out in and people watch. so many places to visit, such as the Old and the new fortress. The restaurants are excellent and full of local charm.
 
So many shops to wander in and out of and buy souvenirs. If you miss the shops back home you can find a few high street names such as Marks and Spencer. Although why people only want to find british names and buy stuff there is beyond me.
 
I noticed someone complained about cobble streets!! Come on..... This again adds onto the charm. Also you mentioned lots of the shops were closed., Yes, some days there are restricted opening hours, but if you check with you rep in resort they can tell you the best times to go. I would suggest on Friday evening as the atmosphere is amazing, with all the locals out and about.
 
Its busy, as its the capital of Corfu. So dont complain that its too busy!!!
 

Argo (Roula) Studios - (Accommodation in Benitses)

I used to be head rep for olympic in 2003, the Roula were always a really good choice and people always loved their stay.

As a result me and my girlfriend had 2 wonderful weeks back in Beniteses in Sep 2006 and stayed at the Roula. Spiros and Anne are great hosts and very friendly people.
 
Benitses is not as busy as it used to be, but the olcation of the Roula means everything in on your doorstep, there is a good bus service to Corfu town and some really nice restaurants too. Although I suggest you try the food at Roula cos its FAB!!
 
I now work in a travel agent in the UK and have since booked my Mum to go to the roula this September, she was there in Sep 2005 and also loved it!!
 
If you are going to the roula, you will have a great time
