Resort itself very quiet with no entertainment on at all,very low key.Main thing is relaxing at few good tavernas,a maybe a quiet drink at couple of music bars(not for young and lively!)
We would reccommend Acharavi Park,Pumphouse tavernas.A must is ROGGIA restaurant which is out of main street,but speak to rep and owner collects and returns you to Eriva,more expensive(£12approx fillet steak-fantastic!!)but well worth it! We went first and last night!!
Beach very stoney

Resort was very clean. We did not particularly go looking for entertainment but we found plenty to do in the evenings. Not sure for the young and trendy though. The beach on first impression was very stony and hurt your feet when getting in - take beach shoes!! - on walking along a bit further beach improved. We hired a car which was great and we were able to visit lots of other beaches that were better. Agios Stefanos was our favourite. You could even park on the beach. Did not do any organised trips as we had the car, hopefully saved us some money.

Plenty of good restaurants. Ate out every night - every one excellent!
Don't agree with dogs leaving 'calling cards' on beach though - very unhygenic!

Tavernas very nice, friendly places, catered for children well.

Shops treated you like criminals and followed you around, myself and many others were offended.

Beach is stoney, and not so good for young children, although water is shallow.

There was no entertainment at all in the 2 weeks I was there.

Acharavi is a fairly quiet town and suited our needs down to the ground. If you want your entertainment a little more lively then go down the road to Roda. I would reccomend the resort to any family looking for a relaxing holiday

On the coach transfer we were a little worried as there didnt seem to be much about but once settled in we found numerous resturants which were very nice and cheap! Bars not open really late so if looking for a wild week or two probably not the place for you, although we did stay in the Yamas Bar until 5.30 in the morning! Beach was ok only visited once, take a decent pair of sandles as loads of pebbles as you enter the sea, but once in its great can see the bottom.

Lovely hotel, lovely views from the upstairs rooms but lack of entertainment. Left us bored rigid especially for the kids.

Food could be better but this hotel was not suppose to open untill next year hence nobody has made the entertainment and food a priorty.

Acharavi is a nice town with excellent restaurants. remember you must go where the locals go.

Not too much nightlife though. For this you go to Sidari.

Achavari, certainly quiet when we went there in mid-september. At 31 I did feel a bit young, most holidaymakers there at the same time seemed to be retired couples. We went on a couple of the organised trips, but due to the location of achavari, they all needed at least a 1 hour coach trip to get to wherever you are going, which did get a bit tedious!
One thing I didn't read in other people's reports were the level of mosquitoes in the area. I suffer quite badly from bites even though I put 'jungle' strength repellent on from 4pm every day. On the second day I was in the mood to pack up my things and go as I had been bitten so much. I think people should know that this is certainly a problem at the north end of Corfu.
The restaruants on the main road of achavari were good, we ate out evey night bar one, 'The Pumphouse' and 'Odessey' were both excellent, and for 2 of us, we never spent more than 30 euros including wine per night, often under 20 euro. Most resuaurants had the same things on the menus, a good selection of greek food, pizzas, pasta, etc, and for the brits who can't eat anything foreign you can always get burger and chips, sunday roasts and 'full english' breakfasts quite easily.
There are a lot of locals around the area which makes a nice change from resorts which just have brits everywhere. Every night there were a group of eldery greek ladies and gentlemen who congregated outside the doctors on plastic chairs for a chat.
The tourist shops all sell the same sort of things as well, good selection of fake watches, hats, perfumes, bags etc. There is a large supermarket that sells everything you need, but is closed on Sunday, even though it says, 'open every day' on the door. You can always get basics though at other small shops on the main street.
Beach was clean, pebbley, very shallow sea, quite warm for September I thought, you pay 5 euro for 2 sunbeds and an umbrella if you want one. There is a man that drives up and down the beach selling ice cream all day which is good.
Overall, the place to go if you want a bit of peace and quiet and don't mind being away from lots of loud british tourists, and don't mind mosquitoes.
One other thing to mention is Corfu airport. It has not grown in size since it was built in the 80s, and when you catch your flight home, expect to wait, a long time, outside the airport before you get anywhere near check in, you have to be patient, as there is nothing anyone can do when 2 thousand brits turn up on a monday to leave the island and the check in area is the size of a basketball court, and they now have suitcase scanners before check in which makes the space even smaller!!
