Bottom Line
Akrogiali Rooms is a small value property across a quiet street from the beach in Corfu. Older travelers and families come here for peace and quiet far from the party scene of Mykonos and Santorini. The hotel is run by a local Greek family. Rooms are simple yet pretty with pine furnishings and furnished balconies overlooking the calm Ionian Sea. The on-site restaurant gets good reviews for breakfast and seafood dishes, though no meals are included in the room rate. Wi-Fi, parking, and beach loungers are free. Those who can't (or won't) climb steps should book a first-floor room or stay elsewhere.

Scene
Peace and quiet on the Ionian Sea
The family-run Akrogiala Rooms is built into a hill directly across a quiet street from the Ionian Sea. The beach area is small with more grass than pebbles but the water is blue, warm, and calm with pebbles turning into sand under the water. The area is quiet and consists of other small properties with little seaside restaurants. A van drives down the road daily to sell fresh fruit to anyone who stops it. The hotel is popular with older European travelers though families with kids who love the water are happy here too. The restaurant is technically built across the street from the water, but meals can be served on a covered patio directly on the water.
Location
On an isolated road 10-minutes from the tiny village of Boukari
Akrogiala Rooms is built into a hill on an isolated road about a 10-minute walk from the tiny village of Boukari. There, you'll find a mini market and handful of tavernas and seafood restaurants, which are also easily found down the road from the hotel. A small pebbled beach is directly across the street from Akrogiala Rooms. To explore the island or get to the center of Corfu (about a 40-minute drive) a rental car is a requirement. Parking at the hotel is free. Expect to pay hefty cab fare if you arrive at the hotel via taxi from the airport.
Rooms
Pine furniture and Ionian Sea views
Rooms at Akrogiali aren't fancy but they are spotlessly clean and charming with pine wood ceilings and matching furniture. Tube TVs are old-fashioned though Wi-Fi is free and reliable. A small refrigerator holds a free bottle of water and there's an electric kettle for making tea. Some of the bathrooms are so small that the toilet is almost inside the shower. Handheld shower wands are convenient for bathing little ones but less appealing for full-grown adults. Furnished balconies overlook the water and the best views are on the top floor, but be prepared to climb many steep steps to get there.
Features
Peaceful restaurant and beach
The restaurant at Akrogiala gets excellent reviews from past guests for both variety and quality of food served three times a day. The kitchen is across the street from the beach but meals are served on a covered wooden patio directly on the water. Beach facilities are minimal though the area is peaceful and uncrowded. Locals bring their kids to swim here on weekends. Guests have access to free blue lounge chairs but there aren't umbrellas or drink service. There isn't a swimming pool, but that's common for this price point and region.
