Sunflower Apartments & Studios

The apartments were in a central location and spotless clean however, we were advised that the pool was open and we arrived to find it was closed! This was during October half term. We ended up having to book and pay for alternative accommodation with a pool!

Just returned from Sunflower Appointments and have to say it was a marvellous place to stay , basic but typically Greek .Tamara very helpful always concerned that things where ok . Denise in pool bar also a lovely lady , I have read reviews saying she’s miserable but certainly wasn’t with us . Bit of a dodgy hill on the approach but would certainly recommend Sunflower 👍

Tip Top review of Sunflower Apartments, and Kassiopi, Corfu. First off, we arrived in the dark, we’d booked a private transfer, I was quite glad we had as the coast road is a bit hairy! I was not prepared for the travel sickness or just how bendy some of the roads are. Jeremy Clarkson could film a top gear here and it would have viewers on the edge of their seats! Our driver seemed to want to chat all the way there which meant us British polite people chatted back despite it being 1am and we fancied an hours kip! Sunflower Apartments are basic, it’s traditionally Greek and from experience, they all seem to be a little like this. The buildings a little tired and could do with some maintenance however the Sunny welcome you will receive from Tamara and gang will soon brighten them up. We stayed in a two bedroom apartment with small kitchen, eating area, balcony, and bathroom. Room 7 was top floor and came with a side seaview. There was ample cutlery, pans and hob space to make a basic pasta meal. Although there were too many yummy restaurants in Kassiopi itself to do this more than once! The Sunflower has access to the pool next door at the Kalimera if you use their bar, so that’s easy enough, nice clean pool and bar, snacks and warm welcome from Denise who has an argument at least once a day with the other staff! Entertaining to watch! Location with the Sunflower is one of its biggest drawers. Bang in the middle of town but not noisy and easy to walk everywhere. When we were there however it was 40 degrees so we didn’t walk that far! The mattresses were my kids only complaint, a bit on the thin side and the springs had sprung off in some cases. New mattresses would be a real boost to the Sunflower. Room was cleaned most days, cleaning ladies were lovely, mopping, making beds and changing towels, speaking of towels, they were fresh but some of the linen could do with an upgrade. If you would like a view ask for an upper floor room, the apartment below ours seemed to look onto a rock. Upper floor room numbers were 6, 7, 8, and 14, 13, 12. Some of these are studios and some are 2 bedrooms. Look out for the tortoises in the garden, we had to look every day, super cute and not camera shy! Tamara who manages the complex is lovely, happy to chat anytime and can give you some good recommendations. Very good at replying to guests queries and you can message her anytime. Now for Kassiopi, it really is the jewel in the crown of Corfu but a couple of things let it down, the municipality really need to empty the bins more often and clean up some of the alleyways. The alley from the Sunflower beside the school needs a skip and a good scrub. If I were there I’d get the school to do some art down there, it’s quite poorly lit and scruffy. Take a torch is my top tip! The other way to get to the main roads from Sunflower is a wider road but again means you are walking past derelict buildings, and unfinished apartments. Such a shame when generally the area i

Recently returned from 5 nights at the sunflower. I was really apprehensive as couldn’t find much on them. It’s a fab little base. The apartment we had (number 14) was lovely. Twin beds, dressing table, double wardrobe - everything we needed. Kitchen had 2 cooking rings, kettle, fridge and toaster. Bottle of water in the room when we arrived and a small tray with tea/coffee etc on which was a nice touch. We were told to email hotel 24 hours in advance to organise arrival as there is no reception. We didn’t get a reply which worried me but I need not have as there is a reception - just not manned 24/7. There was a notice on the door telling us our room and keys were in our door. Room was spotless and cleaned daily. We had towels and bedding changed once whilst there. We didn’t have a view of anything from the balcony as we were overlooking other balconies and homes but it was still a nice place to have a drink in an evening. The accommodation doesn’t have its own pool but there is a pool next door (you literally walk past it to get to the sunflower) which is open 0800-2400 (wasn’t disturbed by it though) with plenty of loungers and bar serving food and drink. The location of the sunflowers is amazing, 2 mins and you are in the heart of kassiopi (use passage up side of school) or if you walk the other way you are right by the well stocked supermarket. The accommodation is on a hill and no good for people with mobility problems due to the last 10m plus the accommodation is a maze of steps. Would I go back? Yes definitely. Would I recommend it. Yes definitely.

Abbiamo trascorso un buon soggiorno ad agosto. Struttura un pò datata.Comoda la posizione centrale in Kassiopi ma tranquilla. Vogliamo sottolineare soprattutto la gentilezza e la disponibilità di Tamara che gestiva il soggiorno, ha sempre trovate le soluzioni migliori per rendere piacevole il nostro soggiorno. Grazie ancora
