We liked everything about Locanda. The peace and calm of the location. The views. The incredibly friendly staff (all of them including Georgia, the two cafe ladies, the lovely lady who was cleaning and non stop). Our apartment was perfect. All facilities excellent. The apartments are at the top of a hill well away from the main road about 100 metres below. A perfect small supermarket is contained just under and down from the cafe and pool area so easy for water and drinks and snacks. Clean pool. Shower and WC there. Amazing breakfasts. Buffet. Loads of delicious homemade foods. Coffee, tea, juice etc. We wanted somewhere to get away from the real world for 5 nights. Just perfect for us. We were husband and wife and two daughters 19 and 21. The girls loved it. We had room 110 which is a two bedroom apartment with a brilliant shower, kitchen and good air conditioning and essential mesh on all windows and door. We were just opposite the pool and cafe area but had privacy from a private side veranda. The beach walk took 10 mins for an early morning 7.30am swim each day. Buffet breakfast from 8-10.30am. Cafe stays open until 7pm. Drinks and snacks can be purchased (with cash I think so just check that). There is also a nice little Panorama cafe for a cold 500ml of draught Mythos just half way down the hill to the road. Take care on the main road with young children. All in all a fantastic trip. Georgia kindly organised a very friendly taxi chap called George to take us on our return to the airport for 45€. Barbati beach is wonderful for sea swimming and relaxing. A good mix of ages and locals and visitors. For the youngsters seeking noise and other attractions the go to Ipsos. We shall certainly return in 2024 in May or September. Thank you.

Nothing. It was all good, hence the 10 rating.

Very beautiful stay in lovely hotel. Staff were really helpful and kind. Room was clean and very well equipped. Hotel is located in quiet area but nearby beach and restaurant area, and also very close to local shop.

Just returned from a wonderful 5 night trip to Locanda! We absolutely loved everything, Georgia and her team were all so friendly, everywhere was spotlessly clean and the views are just amazing. Breakfast was delicious with a real effort made to offer something to please all tastes. The pool was fantastic and the sun beds were incredibly comfortable. There are plenty of really good tavernas to choose from, all within walking distance and the beach was great too. Yes, there is a hill to climb up to get back but you know that when you book and without the hill the views would not be so wonderful! We really hope to return. Thanks again from Sally and Rob.

Having to leave!

Facilities and hotel area looked fresh, clean and new! The views around are great too. Room is specious with a very comfortable shower and amazing balcony. The pool was very nice too, although we prefer swimming and sunbathing at the seashore. There is a great small beach if you go down to the main road from the hotel and then enter the beach through the Skala restaurant. The beach has some natural shade and also sunbeds for rent. We were in July and the water there was really warm compared to places like Paleokastritsa. There are also quite nice restaurants on the main road close to the hotel. In general, the area felt like a bit more luxurious.

The hotel wasn’t particularly cheap, so we expect more food variety for breakfast, which was good anyway. Also there were quite many annoying wasps during the breakfast despite staff attempts to fight them off with burning coffee. Note that hotel is located on a steep hill, so elderly people might have some discomfort there.

Locanda is a beautiful family run apartment resort. All the staff are very helpful and friendly, especially Georgia who runs it. The view is spectacular. Everything is spotless and alot of thought put into it. You can have. Relaxed breakfast by the pool, bar food until 3pm, supermarket en site. I noticed alot of couples who were touring the island by car staying here, and actually deciding to use it as a base then, not wanting to leave 🙂

The location is up a steep hill. However Barbati itself is at the bottom of a large mountain, so expect that.

The views, the setting , quality of loungers, pool bigger than expected , fabulous outdoor area around our apartment. Apartments are modern, very clean. Staff are so helpful, friendly. Breakfast was far better than expected with variety every day. We toured the island and Barbati beach is one of the best.

We would have liked x2 pillows each and a thin bed cover as just a sheet is too cold but then I never asked and I’m sure if I did they would have obliged. We made sure the AC was not too powerful as it’s very efficient.

Lovely apartment and pool/bar area with a spectacular view over the bay and the mountain right behind. We stayed fior a week in early August and we impressed by the well-appointed and modern apartment (ours was two bedrooms, separate airco in both), everything super-clean. Very comfortable beds. The balcony was full width of the appartment and accessible from booth bedrooms, with the great view,. We rented car and use Barbati as base to for some day trios e..g Corfu town, Kasiopi, Avlaki beach and Agios Stephanos. Several restaurants in easy walking distance on the Barbarti main “street”. Staff were all very friendly and helpful

Nothing really.

Georgia is super kind host, we had late or early arrival at 01:00 am and she waited for us, even helped to organise taxi to pick us up from the Airport (price was 50 Eur). Big and spaceous family two bedroom apartment with big terrace that had everything we needed. Breakfast was versatile and delicious. And the Pool is fantastic, clean. Everything is better than on the pictures. Renting a car is almost a must, because it is located uphill with a nice sea view. Just book, you wont regret it.

Nothing

The property was located on top of a hill. Rooms were very spacious and comfortable, with a nice view and balcony! Georgia was just lovely and so hospitable. Rest of the staff were also very kind

The property was quite uphill, it also had different areas of the hotel located in different parts, for example some rooms were slightly further up and so going down for breakfast one had to go downhill to the pool area. Slightly older people and people with disabilities may struggle as it was quite steep. I also thought it was quite expensive for what it offered but we stayed here as we were meeting some friends in a villa near by and the location worked!

Perfect location for a quiet, peaceful and relaxing break with amazing panoramic views. All the staff were extremely helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely fresh homemade buffet breakfast served in pool area each morning. Poolside bar snacks/lunches also very good which we ate either by the pool or on our balcony. Accommodation all extremely well maintained and very comfortable. Poolside beds the best I’ve ever laid upon.!

Nothing I didn’t like about the property itself and whilst the short five minute steep uphill walk each evening was tiring it was worth it for the views.
