Ionian Eye Design Studios & Spa

The hotel is beautiful, well designed, boutique with a quiet relaxed approach to it. It was immaculately clean. Despite them stating that housekeeping was every two days, I got clean towels and fresh coffee everyday. The pool was delightful, the staff were very amenable. Despite the room being small it was well designed with loads of storage. The bathroom was also small and a larger shower would have been appreciated. The balcony was completely private and in shade which gave a welcome retreat as the sun rose. The views from the top floor (my room) were spectacular! The bar was cheaper than town. The pool was chlorine free so refreshing and nice to swim in. I had a spa treatment which they arranged very quickly and was wonderful, the therapist was extremely good. Loved it. Locally the beach was lovely, a quieter resort with areas of peace. The loungers that line the beach are free. The views were incredible. For sunset views visit Fishermen’s Haunt and for moonlight views visit Bacchus. I’ll be back x

Rooms were tired, bathrooms very small. Pool and bar were good although no bar open on Sundays!

The room was clean and had one double bed and as well a sofa bed. The kitchenette was sufficiently equipped, the fridge is a bit too small and only holds small bottles or cans but no bottles larger then .5 litre. Aircondition is good and not noisy. The bath room is tiny, but okay. Room service checks daily. The pool area is very nice. Plenty of outdoor beds, partly with shade. Sun umbrellas are fixed and cannot be moved or adjusted, which should be improved. The pool bar is open from 10AM until 6PM (except sundays) and offers plenty of drinks, soft drinks snacks and even some meals. Positive: The hotel is a bit outside of the Mesongi town, but a short walk of 10 minutes takes you to plenty of good restaurants and bars. There are also several supermarkets close by where one can buy whatever one needs. Not too many rooms and most guests stay only very short for a couple of days. Negative: Even if the hotel is only a small distance from the Ionian Sea, there is no chance to reach a beach close by. It is all private beaches. The closest beach in walking distance is about 10 10-minute walk and then this is crowded by other many guests of all the hotels in the city of Messongi. (If you are a fan of nice calm sandy beaches, you'd better look for a stay on the West coast of Corfu. We did rent an ATV and drove over to the other side of the island to enjoy those nice beaches.)

We have had a fabulous stay - beautiful apartment, really lovely pool area. We all had spa treatments which were amazing. Xenia the Manager is so helpful & very prompt to respond to enquiries. She booked tranafers, treatments, trips & has lots of helpful information. Great poolside bar with a lovely waiter - shame it doesn’t open on Sundays.
