Just got back from spending 2 weeks at the appartments from hell.The rooms were very basic,beds hard,cleaning non existant,I dropped a piece of paper under bed on the first night,it was still there 2 weeks later !!
Staff very rude and dissinterested if you did`nt drink at their bar.
The worst thing was the noise of the bar,basic entertainments started at 10 pm and did`nt finish until the last drunken guest left usually about 1am,no concoderation was given to the other guests as long as they were selling their drink !!
The worst was yet to come,due to the unclean rooms both my wife and I were ` Eaten ¬ alive by the tiny ants which were living in our room.
I would not recommend this place to my worst enemy

This was one of the worst holidays ever, the rooms were very basic when you finally managed to get into them, the staff asleep when we arrived. Some staff nice and polite but very hostile towards you if you have too much fun for not spending in the bar. i would definately recommend Roda and if you have children Nemo bar is really good and fantastic hospitality but I would strongly recommend not staying at these apartments. You are unable to have water by the pool and staff are very rude if you do. Complained when I came home as no entertainment even though advertised in brochure and something I looked for first when booking. The cleaner is lovely and has a hard job, but towels are not provided as advised and neither are blankets, we didn't even get a cot. Would recommend First choice as rep fantastic and sorts things out, just definately not this site, as they are not vey child friendly which suprised me

Couldnt fault the pool & surrounding gardens. Made lots of friends who had been coming to Roda for many years. They had all stayed at the Elizabeth studios in the past but only the once. They now book other local apartments which are cleaner & better serviced but use the facilities at Elizabeth. I stayed in room 14 with my wife & two daughters (01/08/2008 – 15/08/2008) The room had not been cleaned properly for months there were layers of thick dust under the beds. The bathroom was filthy the shower curtain was black with mould & the shower mat an absolute health hazard we had to chuck it in the corner & put up with the hazard of a slippery floor. We had to buy our own toilet roll (1st time in 25 years travelling abroad) The towels that were provided were rags & covered in stains, they were supposed to be changed twice a week but were only changed 3 times in 14 days. The sheets were supposed to be changed once a week but it took 10 days to get ours changed after complaining to the rep who told me “oh well thats Corfu for you, its my day off tomorrow let me know if theyre not changed by Monday”. We got back on Monday after a day out to find nothing had been done. This led to an argument as the owners mother & the maid who swore blind they had been changed on the Friday before. We were within 15 minutes of leaving the place if they didn’t get on & change them, this seemed to resolve the situation. By the way my wife was in tears at this point. The maids idea of servicing the room was to pull the top cover up on the bed leaving the sheets all screwed up underneath & empty the bins. This took a maximum of ten minutes. The maid service was supposed to be 5 days a week but was only four. The rooms were never swept out this had to be done by ourselves. The kitchen was filthy with dirty cutlery & crockery all put back in the cupboard by the previous occupants & left unchecked by the maid. There was food left behind the microwave/cooker, hard to believe really. The fridge thermostat was set to number one with a warning notice not to alter it, this setting was not cold enough to be able to keep anything so I turned it up to number 4. Everytime the maid came in the room she turned it back down to number 1 causing the fridge to defrost leaving a huge pool of water for us to clear up all over the kitchen floor. In summary the worst apartments I have ever stayed in.

My girlfriend and I have just returned from our 2 week holiday at the Elizabeth Apartments, and we had a great time!
The apartments are basic, but adequately equipped, and are set amongst lovely gardens with a great mountain backdrop, and large swimming pool.
The 'Kookabura Bar' (apartment pool bar) serves food (meals/snacks) from 9am-1am, and Costa will keep serving drinks until the last person standing goes to bed.
The apartments are located close to the beach (5min walk), and the resort centre (10min walk).
Roda is a relatively quiet resort, ideal for families/couples seeking a relaxed holiday, with many tavernas and bars offering a wide selection of foods and drinks.
We'd recommend you pay a visit to Costa at Roda Park Inn, Lisa at Smilies, and the guys at taverna Odysseus.
We hired a scooter for 10 days during our stay, and having done so we'd strongly recommend it (as long as you have experience as some Greek drivers and roads can be a bit 'hairy' at times/places), because its a great way to see the island.
We stumbled across many hidden beaches, and visited most of the surrounding resorts, including a trip to Hydropolis, the local waterpark.
Good beaches to visit: Agios Spiridon, Archaravi, Kalamaki, Agios Stefanos, Kouloura, Kalami, Nisaki, Barbati, and Paleokastritsa.
The local surrounding resorts of Sidari and Kassiopi are definately worth a visit.
Sidari - Very lively resort-ideal for those seeking 'mad' nights out partying.
Kassiopi - A lovely harbour resort with many tavernas and bars, and bustling atmosphere.
We also went on Theo's "Amazing" glass bottom BBQ boat trip (or as the First Choice rep described it). Just a little advice, don't listen to the rep's exagerated description then you won't be disappointed. The trip was a good day out and is definitely worth it just to see the amazing turqoise waters and white cliffs of Paleokastritsa.
They will also tell you that the trip is exclusive to First Choice, but we booked the exact same trip independently, and paid 40 euros for both of us, where First Choice were charging 46 euros per person.
If you do decide to visit Corfu, then Corfu town is a must! We went on an organised coach trip, 'Corfu Town by evening'. Its a great place to visit with many shops, places to see, and things to do. We thoroughly enjoyed it!
Other than that, I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay at the Elizabeth. The guys: Costa, Olga, Helen and Dimitri really make you feel very welcome, and do all they can to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible.
We would definitely recommend these apartments and the resort to anybody seeking a nice chilled out, relaxing holiday in the sun.
I hope this helps, happy holiday.

Had another brilliant holiday at the Elizabeth Apartments again this year. Idylic -would sum it up for me! The apartments, like all Greek apartments, are quite basic but spacious and always clean. We usually ask for the annex which is situated just to the side of the main complex in beautiful,peaceful gardens.
Unlike most places we've been to there are always sunbeds available in the beautiful gardens surrounding the pool. The pool bar is very nice serving everything you could want at reasonable prices.
Costas and all the staff are really nice and welcoming and always happy to help.
Would recommend this to anyone.
