Panayoti (host) is an absolute gentleman !!!!
Location is wonderful !!! The beauty is the side alley away from all the noise and mayhem but one block from everything !!!! As I mentioned the host is an absolute gem !!!! I’m staying there again the next time around with even more incredible familiarity !!!! Value is A plus !

Panos is a great host
The property is right in the centre of town and really easy to reach everything. Great location. Panos gave us loads of suggestions of things to do and places to eat. Fantastic stay

A gem in the middle of town
I had been looking forward to our stay in Corfu and finding the right place a year ago was important and I found it in this rental. It was a block off of the main street and very quiet. The pictures matched what we saw when we arrived. Although we didn’t meet the owner due to us being up and out by 8 we were in constant contact. Any questions were answered quickly. There was fresh fruit, water and wine upon our arrival which was a nice touch. There was no parking on the property but we managed to park pretty close for free. The unit would be large enough for 4 people comfortably. There is a washer and dryer and we took advantage of that. The only thing that would be better is if there was a map of the local area provided. The square, the local restaurants and possible places to park as it can be a busy, confusing area for visitors. I would definitely return to this rental.

Very disappointing stay
Note the photos are accurate and neighborhood is very nice. Panos is a good person I believe but overextended. My poor review is based on the following: * Most significantly, toxic, carcinogenic moth balls were placed in locked cupboards and one of two wardrobes in the main bedroom. From the photos, I thought both wardrobes were available for the tenant, but we had to use the hallway closet . The moth ball smell was extremely annoying all night and gave me headaches. We did not switch to the second bedroom ( which had no storage), the bed was up against the wall requiring one partner to climb over the other if they needed to get up and the bed was less comfortable. * The original arrival plan I'd discussed with Panos in advance was to drop off of our luggage that morning before the published check in time (which was noon). Instead we had to wait until 1 pm to check in which was significant because my husband only had that day free as he was working remotely via the computer during the week. * There was no coffee or salt in the apartment. A main draw had been the great kitchen set up since we'd be eating in, and we'd expected at least a day's coffee and salt and pepper. There was a tiny bit of olive oil and vinegar and couple of tea bags. Two rolls of toilet paper for 6 nights. Given we were at the property all day/night and it's difficult to find public toilets if you are not dining out, this was insufficient. The washbasins are very small so the lack of washcloths was significant because of the awkward sink space. There was no bathroom shampoo or shower soap beyond basin liquid hand soap. Note Panos did generously provide some fruit and a bottle of Greek wine which was much appreciated. * There was some construction / renovation very near the apartment which at times was very noisy. Since my husband was working and we'd picked a quiet location for this, it was important and should have been brought up as we'd noted he was working remotely when we booked. * I believe Panos is a nice, personable guy and generally would be a good person to work with but was over extended and failed to give this proper attention. The apartment is comfortable and in a great location near Falkiri Beach and the Liston esplanade.

What an incredible property in an amazing location in the heart of Corfu Town. Panos is a great host
Amazing. Our host Panos even invited us to dine in his family taverna in Sidari, in the north of the island. It was well worth the day trip and we loved dining there. He even humoured my request to have lots of small sample plates. On arrival, Panos gave us a guided tour of the city on foot, to get us familiarised and to recommend some great venues to visit. Really sad to leave. We'd definitely love to stay in this well equipped and cosy home again. It was like something from a country living magazine feature. Simply stunning
