This is a true gem on Corfu! I had booked a 2 night stay and ended up extending it until I'd stayed the whole week. The family and team who run Penison Elena are amazing - you will feel like part of their family. Nothing is a problem, they are so kind and helpful - I had mucked up my car rental, and they helped me arrange great transfers with very late notice. You can borrow a SUP from them, and explore the coastline. They will tell you of local events that are happening, I had a chance to go to a local beach BBQ, so cool! The beach is literally one minutes walk away. Free sunbeds in a couple of local tavernas (buy a coffee or a beer, but no one chases you if you don't). Pension Elena is quiet, relaxed, very clean. The room has a large balcony, a kettle, crockery and cutlery, a fridge, hairdryer, iron etc., and there is a well stocked and really reasonably priced shop downstairs that you can buy anything in, from beer to crisps to frozen prawns and shampoo. There are tables in the shop area - just get a cold drink, sit down, and watch the world go by. The room was cleaned daily, bathroom was nice, no issues with drains. I could hear very little noise from neighbours, and only in daytime. The bed was very comfortable - I hadn't slept do well for a long time. Rooms are air conditioned, which was much appreciated in August!!! Owners live on site, so there should anything happen. And to top it all off, for the price you see, you get fresh homemade breakfast every day - something different every morning, always a selection of hot and cold items, and nice coffee and juice.
I honestly dont think I will go anywhere else in Corfu, I am already planning to come back next spring.
Thank you Michalis, Iannis, Xenia, Eleni, Alexia and everyone else who made this a wonderful holiday!!!

Booked for the incredible location & proximity to the beach. Very friendly staff, it’s quaint, no frills but traditional & everybody is so friendly. The breakfast is simple but delicious & fresh.
The steps up to our 2nd floor room were our only concern. Wouldn’t suit people with limited mobility. We knew this when we booked though.

The location very near beach with gorgeous view of sea over lovely lush field. Moments walk to two VERY fabulous tavernas. In a quiet very beautiful place close to Petriti. Not touristy in the usual sense, much more low key with lovely Greek people not being outnumbered by travellers. Loved the little shop downstairs with lovely fruit, veg and necessities plus a deep shady verandah for having a drink (and I think snack). The owners/staff were very kind and friendly. Good mozzie net on door to balcony and handy spot for my suitcase.
We liked everything really but if I have to think of something…. a quite strong fragrance smell had us mystified as we are both a bit sensitive and we eventually realised it was the scented bin bags but it was not big a problem we just kept both little bins in the bathroom and shut the door.

A real country place. Not fancy, just a homely and simple small family hotel. Cozy house with 3 floors (reception desk, dining terrace and mini-shop on the village road, 12 hotel rooms on the 2nd floor). If you are looking for luxury, don't go there. If you are looking for a country atmosphere and a simple life, you can go. Fortunately, the price corresponds to the simplicity. In the house you feel more like in a simple old home than in a real hotel. Elena, the very fun waitress, is quick and greets customers at the breakfast table with many "Kalimera"s.
Location next to a small quiet beach and beach cafe, you can swim in the sea in several places near the house. Beautiful view of the sea. Less than a km away is the small fishing town of Petriti, it is not visible from the hotel but you can get there directly through a small forest - take a flashlight or headlamp with you if you want to go in the dark, it is pitch black in the forest and you have to find a narrow hilly path. It is a 3km drive there by car.
Be aware that roosters crow early in the morning, as there is a chicken coop nearby. Village dogs walk and bark somewhere in the distance (at an unknown time, usually in the evening darkness). The silence of the countryside can be heard far away.
Several small things were broken or falling apart and needed minor repairs - the shower door was missing, the sink faucet screen, the main door handle wanted to come off, the bed was a bit sunken, the blankets were strange and thin. Simple like in a normal worn-out and bit dirty country house. Such a warm feeling of home.
Most important observations - If you love cats and are willing to spend time with cats on the breakfast terrace, then you can go there. Fortunately, considering this, the waiter will bring all the prescribed food to your table, there could not be a self-service counter with food because of the cats. If you can't stand cats and cat hair, or especially if you are allergic, then don't go there at all. Countless numbers of self-reproducing cats, including several pregnant and many kittens, walk around the house and on the breakfast terrace between customers, they are friendly but ask for food and also walk with you round or to the beach.An interesting sight was when a guest in another room came, carrying a cat around his neck, and said that it came into his room and and won't go out anymore.
Breakfast is simple and almost the same - the prescribed selection is brought to the table. The dry whitebread sandwich could have been supplemented with something more juicy like yogurt, muesli, fruit, etc. The coffee tasted really bad and was cold - it seemed to us that the coffee was made in a thermos the night before and poured from there in the morning, because otherwise the coffee should be hot. There is no way to heat it yourself - the microwave reception is apparently broken. The kettle in the room was a super surprise - very old plastic and in dirty condition, when boiling water in it you could smell the expired and changing plastic, I destroyed such plastic jugs at home that produce toxic water 20 years ago. For heating the drink, use glass or stainless steel, not plastic!
