Bottom Line

The 44-room Hotel Costas Golden Beach is a value property with beach access that really lives up to the hotel's name. Guests choose this property for its quiet (maybe too quiet for some) location on the water and gorgeous views, plus friendly service and spotless rooms. The swimming pool is built above the sea line so it offers great views of the sandy beach. There is also a hot tub and tennis court. Continental breakfast (expect to pay more for hot items) and a dinner buffet are included with the room rate. The hotel hosts evening entertainment such as karaoke and dancing. If you'd like to stay closer to the village of Agios Giordo, check rates at Dina's Paradise Hotel and Apartments.

Oyster Hotel Review

Hotel Costas Golden Beach

Scene

Two-story pink hotel on a golden beach

The hotel's 44 rooms are often booked way in advance by repeat visitors, mostly families and couples who really love the beach area. The scene is quiet with most guests lounging by the pool or spending the day on the sand. The lobby has a comfortable living room area with built-in benches topped with soft upholstered cushions. There's a book exchange and flat-screen TV with a small library of DVDs for guests to borrow. Outside, a stone wall, green grass, and flower bushes add to the well-maintained and overall pretty look of the property.

Location

Aghios Georgios North

Aghios Georgios North is known for remote stretches of long sandy beaches. Past guests recommend renting a bike or scooter to explore the area which includes the Krini castle, traditional Greek villages, and a monastery. There are a few tavernas and other hotels within walking distance but the area is mostly quiet and traffic is scarce. A bus stop just outside the hotel brings passengers to Corfu town.

Rooms

Spotless with updated bathrooms and furnished balconies (some face the beach)

Fresh and clean, if humble, rooms are part of the appeal at Costas Golden Beach. The best views come from second-story rooms facing the beach, though rear-facing views still have garden and distant mountain vistas. All rooms come standard with air-conditioning, a nicely furnished balcony, and mosquito nets for those who want to sleep with the balcony door open at night. Beware of twin beds pushed together to make a double. Small tube-style TVs are mounted to the upper wall. Bathrooms were renovated in 2011 and look very fresh with glass stall shower doors and white bowl sinks.

Features

Swimming pool, whirlpool, tennis courts -- and a sandy beach without facilities

Features at Costas Golden Beach cater heavily to guests who want to enjoy the outdoors. The sparkling blue swimming pool and adjacent whirlpool overlook the public beach. There's direct access to the sand but an extra charge for beach towels and no private facilities like umbrellas or drink service there. The hotel staff can recommend nearby spots to rent water sports equipment or scuba dive. Back at the hotel, continental breakfast and dinner buffet are served indoors or outdoors, and included with the price of a room. Greek wines and local ingredients are emphasized by the chef. A nicely maintained tennis court is located near the swimming pool -- racquets and balls are free. There's a billiard table in the lobby and staff provides evening entertainment.
