Just returned from a week at this resort. We had really good weather and the rooms were not to bad except for the fact that all the extra beds were bunk beds and when you have children with you that are nearly 6ft this is not very good .The thing tha\t let this holiday down... more

After reading some of the reviews on here i can understand to a certain extent why some were unhappy, as with this hotel, it's really what you get, is what you pay for. I'm in my late teens and went with my family and we chose to stay in the comfort rooms. (I would REALLY... more

Worst Hotel Ever from A TripAdvisor Member
Having just returned from our holiday in Corfu, I feel compelled to let people know what an awful hotel Messonghi Beach is. The rooms are dirty and unsafe, not to mention very, very basic. We weren't even given the room we had paid for and had to move rooms, because it was to unsafe to stay in. Also, the noise at night time was awful, it was not possible to sleep anytime before midnight, and we were often awoken during the early hours by the nightclub. The food was even worse. Even though we had paid for half-board, if we had wanted hot breakfast, we would have had to pay for it! All the food was of a low-rate quality, I saw no fresh vegetables or fruit, and hot food was always lukewarn or cold. We ate out the majority of the time, meaning our holiday cost a lot more than we had anticipated. All I can say is 'DON'T GO THERE'.
Messonghi Hotel accomodation from A TripAdvisor Member
I know Corfu very well and the resort which was good as usual- hotel was a large place with a number of good points Staff were very helpful Pools were great in general Fairly cheap Big downside was the accommodation in two storey low level complex- poor security as we were on ground floor- awful furniture looked like 1930's junk shop stuff scratched- towels with holes in other accommodation looked ok were told we could not move to other rooms with balconies could only be allocated to German/ French guests because of height of balcony posts- entertainment was noisy for us as we were about 5oyds from the stage- also for english not really interested in Serbia's national dance routine! Pity about our rooms as complex could be good with some refurbishment
better than i thought from A TripAdvisor Member
We went to Messonghi beach resort in August this year, i was very apprehensive after reading some reviews, i have to say the grounds are spectacular, well maintained and relaxing. The rooms are basic but ours was clean. The maid service was good, we had more clean towels than enough and the maid was really friendly. The beach was clean and the boat across to messonghi is something not to be missed for 70 cents each. The entertainment was not advertised as well as it may have been, but the team obviously work very hard. If you want a quiet relaxing holiday take your ear plugs as it can get quite noisy. My main critisism was the resturant and the food, it was noisy and chaotic, not a relaxing evening meal at all. It was difficult getting my 6 year old to eat anything but chips, the food was ok, not great but what do you expect when they are catering for so many people. By the 2nd week couldnt face going anymore, found maxims for great breakfast and the rose garden for some fantastic meals in a lovely setting and a park for the kids. Another place to go if you have young children is kids world (end of the drive and turn left) a small friendly taverna with bouncy castle and stuff for kids ran by Spiros and Sue, very children orientated and they have 2 youngsters themselves. Met some lovely people, it was difficult as there wasn't a lot of english people to chat to, my daughter found this hard trying to make friends, talking to kids in the pool and they couldnt understand her. Overall had a great time the weather was fantastic, glad that we went.
Worst Holiday Ever from Me-Joolee
Well, what can I say, my husband and I work very hard all year and so usually go on 2 holidays a 2 week and a 1 week, this was our "chill" week which we both badly needed. This was not the place to do it, I can't understand some of the most recent "good" reviews on this place as it really was a shambles. All I can say is if you think you got value for money you must have paid a quarter of what we paid. As for people thinking English should not always be first on the list, they think that because they are told that by the travel company and I for one do not like being lied to! We returned this morning (Sat 18th Sept 2004) The room was more than basic, it was a garage, it was dirty and unsecure. There were unsafe wires everywhere, mould on the walls, rust on anything it could be on. I had to ask for towels all the time, the bedding was changed once instead of the three times it stated it would be, we paid for half board but only eat once in the restaurant we could not return, it was like feeding time at the zoo and horrible. You had to pay for the sunbeds around the pool! The staff were useless. I understand that to some all these complaints made by myself and others here may seem petty but when you look at what it has just cost us for a week, you can get 2 in a 4* for a little more. This should not be rated a 3*. Every single English couple or family we saw (which were not many) said the same with a family with 2 children of 6 and 11 ending up leaving with the kids saying they never wanted to go abroad again after the experience. How can we all be wrong with just the odd person saying it is OK, go with the majority, believe me it is not worth it.
Recommend Messonghi Beach Hotel to anyone from A TripAdvisor Member
Went to Messonghi Beach Hotel in July 2004 with aparty of eight with an age range from 16 to 83 (83yr old in a wheelchair)and every person thought this hotel,grounds and every thing else associated with this Hotel was wonderful. food was of a high standard, grounds and rooms clean,yes the rooms are basic,but i find the rooms are basic thru out the Greek Islands. The beach was wonderful very clean,quiet, but with plenty of water sports if required, And about German and French been used before English in the Entertainment, i think the people who object to this and not getting there egg and bacon and roast beef and yorkshire puddings should stay in the U.K for there holidays. I would recommend the Messonghia Beach Hotel to any,in fact i have already booked for Aug 2005.
not so bad after all! from A TripAdvisor Member
I read some of the reviews on this hotel before I went on holiday, and of course got a bit apprehensive - there seems to be a lot of negative feedback. However, maybe this was good as I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The grounds (gardens everywhere) are very well-kept, with ample space for sunbathing and kids play areas. Rooms are pretty basic, no TV and no air-con but a good-sized balcony. You won't get luxury, but you're probably not paying for luxury either. The food was excellent - fantastic greek specialities every night but also more international things to cater for everyone (spaghetti bolognese, chips, ice-cream). The staff were helpful and check-in/out was all done efficiently. One thing to note is that it's very much a family-oriented place - if you're not fond of hundreds of small children screaming and splashing around in the pool, then perhaps this isn't for you. However, the beach (just a couple of minutes' walk away) is much quieter, and there are many excursions on offer to visit other parts of Corfu (Paleokastritsa is beautiful). I can't help feeling that some of the negative comments about the hotel are unjust - especially the remark that British people aren't catered for. It's true that we are in the minority, and that German is perhaps the first language used, followed by French then English. But for goodness sake, does English really have to be first on the list everywhere you go? All in all, I would say this was very good value for money and I've had a great holiday.
Enjoyed every minute from A TripAdvisor Member
We thought this hotel was great. There's such a wide range of facilities and entertainment for all ages, but not pushed in your face like some places. We are a couple in our thirties with a 7 year old daughter, it was ideal for us three. Accommodation, public areas and the beautiful extensive grounds are very clean and well maintained and the staff are friendly and helpful. Food is good, but don't expect roast beef and yorkshire puds, you are in Greece you know! We preferred the pools to the beach. The surrounding area is worth seeing. We'd certainly recommend this place to everyone except young single people.
Not to cool from A TripAdvisor Member
Was Not what i exspected. This Hotel does not cater to much for the Brittish holiday maker. We booked the holiday under the impression that it would have some good entertainment for our son and his friend. this is just not so. The problem they are both 16 year old boys we paid the full adult price, there is just nothing for them here to do. If i,d had known this i would have probbily gone self catering and used the money wasted in this hotel on keeping the Boys happy. You need to come to Corfu with the mind set that you will pay money for everything, the only thing that you will get for free here is the SUN.
pongy messonghi from A TripAdvisor Member
we have just returned this morning from a dissapointing holiday, the first thing that hits you when the coach door opens is the horrendous smell of sewage, nick named pongy messonghi by the reps it certainly lives up to its name locals have named it Alcatraz as your hemmed in with wire fencing all the way round, on leaving the resort we discovered it has sewage treatment plants on either side of the messonghi resort. Fixtures & fittings in this hotel are very dated, you could compare it to Butlins before health&safety requirments were implimented(believe me we would love to have gone to Butlins for this holiday.)pools were cloudy and there was algie growing in the overflow vent holes around the sides of the childrens pool. The meals were quite good with a wide variety of dishes but the highchairs were very dangerous with no restraint straps footrests broken & generally very old. English visitors are very much in the minority of nationalities not that we have a problem with this but the facilities & amenities are geared german 1st french 2nd english 3rd. Grounds of hotel are nice with lots of trees & flowers. On leaving the resort areas are still being developed although not whilst we were there its just evident by lots of half built site's and rubble site's, the locals are very freindly and once you leave the resort you leave the smell behind you, there is a fab place for children from babies to older, called Monkey Business which provided a very safe play area with creche facility that you can deposite your children for a few euros and sit in the cafe & enjoy a coffee, our 13month old loved it. All tolled a dissapointing holiday we would not go back there to that resort however there are lots of newer smaller hotels that we would go to within Moritika, air con a must!
HOTEL FROM HELL from A TripAdvisor Member
My 11 yrs old son and I have just returned from this hotel, July 2004. It was a hotel from hell. No air conditioning,food wasn't labelled, choice for kids a joke, rooms dirty I had to buy bleach and clean the room. I was unable to use the balcony, due to rusty table and filthy chairs. I also had to constantly ask for clean towels. There was no enteraintment for an 11 yrs old apart from face painting. I would not recommend this hotel it should not be classed as 3*, there should be no classification as this hotel is unsafe and a health hazard no-one should be offered this hotel from any travel operator
