Akron Seascape Resort, a Member of Brown Hotels

Older review that had been deleted so re applying. This hotel was a huge waste of money. Poor in all areas, cleanliness, food, management, grounds open to the public after paying nearly £4k to not have a seat at the bar full of random non guests. Avoid. If it wasn't for the swim up room we'd have flown home. How anyone didn't get sick after being in the main pool is beyond me.

This was our second trip to Akron having fallen in love with it last year. This year however we’ve been a little disappointed, and are gutted to have not loved it as much as 2023. Our issue from last year with the beds being hard hasn’t changed, this year we actually came with a mattress topper to try and resolve the issue 😂 but sadly it wasn’t enough, and the mattress was a struggle for a side sleeper like me. The food last year was fab, so much choice and selection, really enjoyed it - this year the selection was noticeably reduced - one whole side of hot plates wasn’t in use, the availability of ice cream every day in the restaurant was gone (though it’s there in the bar by the pool), the desserts were much reduced too. Just a little bit disappointing that one of our favourite things of the holiday from last year had really changed. As someone that doesn’t eat beef/lamb I did find my options a little more difficult this year, as I didn’t want to always eat the same beige food - but what I did have was nice enough. I loved the availability of fresh Greek salads every day. Most days the lovely varied desserts that I remembered from last year were this year the same things pretty much every day, and were often frozen in the middle. The cocktail menu has also changed a lot from last year - this year it’s very much white spirits with lime and sugar syrup for a variety of the same cocktail, which is a shame. A few tweaks and it could be great with a more varied selection. The rooms overall are good, the cleaners come every day and empty the bins, the towels are changed every few days. No complaints! You get 2 cards to change the pool towels you’re given twice, which I was more than happy with. The pool could do with a little refurb like lots of people have commented on. The drains are a little discoloured and broken in many places so be cautious when walking on them. The minor things people comment on like some chipped tiles really didn’t bother us at all. The bar staff at times could be a little unfriendly (only a couple of staff) but for the majority everyone has been lovely, particularly the restaurant staff who I can’t praise enough, so friendly and welcoming and happy to answer questions. The location of Akron is still beautiful, and that won’t change. The proximity to canal d’amour is truly wonderful, the little coves and bays nearby are lovely, it’s so easy to walk into the main strip in Sidari if you want to, and there are lots of restaurants and shops around for everything you need . It would be lovely to see the bottom bar on the road used more, it’s such a nice space to sit out in the evening, play pool or cards and have a drink. It’s a great space that I’m sure people would really use if the bar was running there. Whilst we won’t be returning to Akron, it is a nice hotel it’s just not what it was for us last year. But thank you for letting us enjoy beautiful Corfu for another year, and for making us feel so welcome 🇬🇷🧿🤍

We ordered a certain type of room and got another and they didn't have the room we ordered. There is no water flow to shower and the wifi does not work either. The hotel is fully booked and there is no seating in the pool and the beach is not arranged for the hotel with lounge chairs. The room we got is not a family room because it has uncomfortable and even dangerous stairs and the bathroom and toilet is on the parents' upper floor so it is impossible for the children to go up the stairs to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Every floor has an air conditioner but there is only one remote control. The restaurant in the hotel (not the dining room) is really not up to standard and the service is bad.
