Pros:

Sophia and Nikki are wonderful people. My wife and I absolutely loved them. They are incredibly warm and welcoming. From the very first moment I made the reservation, they started taking care of us and showed great attention. Sophia also made a huge effort to arrange a fantastic boat tour for us, and we truly appreciated everything she did.

More than staying at such a lovely property, what made me happiest was meeting such kind and genuine people in a neighboring country. We feel very lucky to have met them. They are truly special.

Apart from these two lovely ladies, the property itself is also very charming, with a beautiful view and a wonderful atmosphere.

Pros:

Well-maintained room in a beautiful location and an enjoyable continental breakfast. The location offers an excellent base for exploring different sides of the island including Corfu Town. Tassos, Sofia and Nicki were all very welcoming and helpful. Although there were some minor downsides, we would still recommend a stay here.

Cons:

The main car park at the front entrance does not always fit all guests' cars and we spent some time trying to work out where to park late at night on our second night until other guests informed us about the other spot. The shower lacks a shower screen or extraction fan (although the lack of fan is fairly standard in Greece) meaning the bathroom floor gets wet very easily.

Niki top, il resto può migliorare
Pros:

La stanza era molto carina, con un bel terrazzino che guardava il mare. Niki, la factotum, è stata molto gentile e premurosa, aiutandoci in ogni occasione. La definirei il vero valore aggiunto della struttura. Colazione buona, da consumare in camera o a bordo piscina, consegnata in un cestino

Cons:

In bagno non c'era una mensola dove appoggiare il beauty e neppure degli appendini per gli asciugamani da doccia. Non c'era neppure la ventola per l'aerazione forzata (bagno cieco). Una camera da letto non aveva la finestra, dettaglio non indicato nella descrizione della camera (...).
Nel giorno di riposo di Niki c'era un sostituto che ci ha consegnato metà colazione (mancava yogurt e succo di frutta), quando è stata rifatta la camera, non sono stati messi gli asciugamani puliti (pur avendo buttato quelli usati nel cesto da usare se si volevano asciugamani puliti il giorno dopo), non è stato svuotato il cestino della carta igienica e non sono stati aggiunti tè e caffè nell'angolo delle bevande in cucina.
In terrazza mancava una tenda per ripararsi dal sole la mattina durante la colazione, quindi, se non si vuole lessarsi, conviene mangiare in camera.
Il parcheggio per le auto è un po' piccolo e i posti non sono segnati, quindi la gente parcheggia come gli pare, limitando il prossimo nelle manovre.
In una delle due camere abbiamo trovato le formiche, problema che la direzione ha cercato di risolvere.

A true hidden gem!
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay here! The bed was incredibly comfortable and the entire staff was so friendly. A special shoutout to Tassos and Niki, who were incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home every single day. Having a traditional breakfast outside each morning was a highlight, everything was delicious, especially the yogurt! We highly recommend this spot and would definitely come back in the future!

Amazing
Pros:

The place is so comfy and quiet. It is kept spotless clean everyday by Nikki. Breakfast is rich and keeps you filled to explore the island. Hot water is running all the time and the air conditioning is perfect especially in hot summer months. The place is adorable to relax especially by the pool. We had a greatt stay!

Cons:

Although being very fulfilling the breakfast tends to get a bit repetitive when you stay longer.
Unfortunately although having the sun from early morning til late in the evening, you can’t get a sunset on this side of the island!

Exceptional stay with breathtaking views and outstanding staff
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it. Everything was exceptionally clean and well maintained throughout our visit. There were always enough sun loungers available to relax by the pool, which, although a bit on the smaller side, was perfect for cooling off and enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

The highlight of the hotel is undoubtedly the breathtaking view. Having breakfast every morning while looking out over this stunning panorama was a truly special experience and something we will never forget.

What really makes this place stand out, however, is the staff. A special thank you goes to Nicky, the housekeeper. She is one of the warmest and most caring people we have ever met. She genuinely goes above and beyond to make sure every guest feels comfortable and taken care of. I travel a lot and stay in many hotels, but I have honestly never experienced such dedication and kindness before. Nicky is absolutely amazing and a real asset to this hotel.

A wonderful stay in a beautiful, quiet area!
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful and peaceful place in Corfu. The area is exceptionally quiet, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The staff were outstanding—friendly, professional, and always willing to help with a smile. (Tassos & Ms. Niki were the best)
Their excellent service made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The combination of the lovely surroundings, tranquil atmosphere, and attentive staff made for a truly memorable experience. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Corfu.

Die Unterkunft war perfekt sauber und beeindruckt mit einer tollen, modernen Ausstattung, die keine Wünsche offenlässt.Das absolute Highlight war jedoch Niki – sie ist die wahre Seele vom Summit Escape! So eine herzliche Gastgeberin erlebt man selten; sie liest einem wirklich jeden Wunsch von den Augen ab. Ein derart exzellenter Service sucht seinesgleichen.Wir können diese Unterkunft wärmstens empfehlen und kommen ganz sicher sehr gerne wieder. Danke, Niki, für alles!

Despite a few minor inconveniences, our stay was wonderful and unforgettable!
Pros:

During our stay at the hotel, we really enjoyed the balcony with the sea view, where we had breakfast every morning. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, with air conditioning and plenty of space for our belongings. We also really appreciated having access to the swimming pool and the convenience of parking our car easily in the parking area. We would especially like to thank Nikki for her incredible care and attention to every detail — she truly is the heart of this hotel!

Cons:

We had a few issues with the bathroom, as water from the shower would leak all over the bathroom floor. When the whole family showered one after another, the water even leaked under the door into the hallway. We assume there may be some issue under the floor tiles or an opening where the water escapes. We also experienced quite a lot of noise from neighboring guests on the last night, coming from different sides, and had to ask them to calm down. We also noticed some ants in the kitchen.
