Hi

We have booked here for August this year in 2 x 1 bed apartments - studios were also available too.

From what I understand the 1 bed apartments are Duplex style - so the 1 bedroom is upstairs (not sure if this is walled - does not look it in the book) and the 2nd sleeping area is the living area

Hope this helps

hi, My family and I stayed in Sidari Village the last 2 years. The rooms are quite large and do have another bedroom up a wooden staircase. This area has 2 beds and 2 sets of drawers. It is not enclosed. It has a wooded rail across the edge of the area attached to the staircase. I have a photo but don't know how to put it on here. :)

Hi

can you let me know what the hotel is like - we are going with our 13 year old daughter & 18 year old daughter & her boyfriend (they are in their own apartment).

Is there lots to do? is it nice & clean etc as we have heard conflicting reviews. We are staying all inclusive

Ok, Where do I start. I don't know if you have been to Corfu before or even Sidari so I'll say that accommodation in Corfu is Basic compare to the likes of spain but sidari Village, although basic is very clean and comfortable. It has been one of the best complexs I have stayed in. Like I said the rooms are big and spacious. As soon as you enter the apartment you are in the kitchen area with fridge ,kettle microwave and a wooden table and chairs. On the left hand side is the bathroom , no bath just a shower which is quite small. the water gets everywhere but it dries quickly. The door facing you is the door to the bedroom with a good sizes wardrobe. Two ssts of drawers beside the two beds and a dressing table. You have a tv but last year had only greek channels but you could pay for sky. A nice balcony with agreat sea view. again with plastic table and chairs.

The resturant is down the hill in the reception area. To be honest if felt it was very cramped and not layed out very well but very clean and the food was always fresh. I'm not sure what you taste is but I found the food very nice although I found it hard to get the kids to eat some of the food. There was chips and fish fingers and speg boll but most of the other foods were aimed towards the dutch who also stayed there. Lots of veal in sauces, the veg was ok, fish dishes, and to be honest other stuff that I didn't have a clue what it was but it was all very eatable and as long as your not fussy you will eat well. Plenty of icecream and cakes for dessert. You got your drinks from a bar type area and there was enough staff so there was never a queue.
Breakfast was a doddle. Plenty of cereal, fruit, yougurt and of course a cooked breakfast, again all fresh and well cooked.

The pool is big but even the shallow end is deep. If you swim you are fine, but i don't and I didn't like it because the shallow end was up to my neck but I'm only a short arse LOL but again very clean and always chairs available.

The pool bar is great for your drinks. Never a queue and every thing aslong as it isn't smirnoff or another brand name is free until 23:00. Not to sure about the snacks, Last year although advertised in the description for the hotel I have to admit I never acually seen any, although the year before you could buy things like sandwiches, burgers, that sort of thing.

Night time entertainment to be honest is crap. We didn't mind it because our kids liked it. It's a kind of Butlins, but even worse. You would be better off going into the town, lot's more to choose from, but give it a try, It might have changed from last year.

I don't think I've forgotten anything but if I have don't hesitate to ask. :wave:

Stayed at Sidari Village in 2006, two bedroomed apartment, both on one floor, as previous post, walk into kitchn with table etc, and your two bedrooms, quite spacious though, balcony with table etc. We did not stay All Inclusive though, like to go to restaurants etc, but food around the pool in the day was very nice. When we stayed in August it was mainly full of Dutch people and I mean full, pools nice, but deep in big pool.

Entertainment team, 5 or 6 english entertainers around the pool area in the day and night, entertaining the kids and there is a kids club, and they have Dutch reps as well, my little one would not go in the kids club though, quite shy, but it looked very good for them and the entertainment team were really friendly and helpful.

Hope this helps
