Ionian Theoxenia ★★★★

We love this hotel. It's very comfortable: well equipped room facilities and a good breakfast. It's close to the beach and bars and restaurants. We have stayed here twice. Emmanouela is a lovely host and she remembered us from last time.

Ionian Theoxenia is an extraordinary hotel. A place tailored to each guest, impeccably clean and tidy, comfortable and maximally pleasant for a stay. It is architecturally well thought out, with excellent sound isolation. The rooms are spacious, modern, the bed is comfortable, and everything what is necessary for a pleasant stay of tourists is available within the package price. There is a sufficient number of parking spaces inside and outside the hotel, Wi-Fi signal is constantly available and good enough, everything is well organized and functional. The breakfast is excellent and meets the needs of tourists with the most varied desires and habits. Special praise goes to the entire staff, starting with the hotel owners, extremely kind and helpful receptionists, and finally to the cleaners who perform their work very meticulously (one of the strongest impressions from our vacation). Just like the overall peace, and tranquility that the hotel exudes, but also the whole little town, which is especially pleasing to older tourists who want to relax. For those interested, a large hotel pool with a sufficient number of comfortable deck chairs is available, but for tourists who prefer swimming in the sea, the hotel offers its own (free) umbrellas and deck chairs. The beach is incredibly spacious and almost deserted, which allows for a completely relaxed stay in and out of the beautiful Ionian Sea. This is one of the most pleasant and relaxed vacations we've had so far, certainly beyond expectations, so repeat is more than realistic in the coming years. Finally, I would just like to mention that the hotel does not offer the option of dinner, but there are several restaurants in the town that offer quality food. We chose a small Tavern called Elia in the center of Kanali, with an outstanding menu and local cuisine, very friendly owners and staff, a characteristic atmosphere, but also more than fair prices for the quality offered. A vacation that will not be forgotten!

This is probably the first time I can't think of a single thing to complain about. Almost perfect location and vacation. But if I really have to write something in this review, then I would only correct a few small things inside the room that may not have been completely practically thought out and solved. But these are literally little things, which do not reflect at all on the final judgment and evaluation.

Wonderfull.

Very big room with nice view at the swimming pool.

All was perfect

Staff were friendly and very helpful with suggestions for restaurants and places to visit. The hotel was well located and the room was very comfortable.

I really have no complains. The hotel was exactly as expected and showed on the website.

Perfect spot! Nice location and establishment

The property was very peaceful with large pool. Despite many hotel guests, it didn’t feel crowded. It’s within walking distance to few very good Greek tavernas with great traditional cousin and fresh fishes. There’s also free beach sun beds you can access a a hotel guest. We didn’t use as the pool was great, but they’ve always seemed unoccupied so would have also be great for someone who is looking for a peace and quiet. Great breakfast too with fresh bakery daily. And it’s until 11am so even better if you are not an early bird.

Everything was great- but be ware that the buses to Parga from nearby are not reliable. We’ve waited to board as the busy never arrived.

The hotel is nicely laid out. It's clean and well looked after. Everyone is professional, friendly and welcoming. It had a good feel. Our spacious air-conditioned room was spotless and everything required was there. We only spent one night there but will book later in the year.

Spacious and quiet.

Quite basic but incredibly clean and lovely staff.

The breakfast was amazing and the staff very friendly! The pool was gorgeous and rooms were stunning.

The fitness centre was under construction, and we weren't warned about this before our stay.

Clean, lovely pool, lots of sun beds, easy access to beach and tavernas, nice breakfast

Nothing

The location is excellent for those who go by car. You are close to the main attractions of the area. Kanali is also a charming location with small tavernas and beaches nearby, and we enjoyed the fact that it was not crowded. The hotel is wonderful starting from accomodation to the beaches and the staff. We would definently go back!

The staff was wonderful. The property is older, but very well maintained. Our room was large, quiet, comfortable, and very clean. Shower had very good water pressure. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Large balcony overlooking the pool. Breakfast was good. No self service cappuccino/expresso machine. Only drip coffee or Greek coffee come with breakfast. We were there for only one night.

1. Very poor wifi. They sent a technician to fix it, but even after they ‘fixed’ it, it was very weak. The connection barely worked for me in the lobby. I kept losing connection. Even using cellular was challenging. 1-2 bars at most. Zero connection in our bedroom for either one of us (room 53). We both have newer iPhones. I had to work, so I ended up driving to Preveza to use wifi (I sat in the lobby of another hotel and used their wifi with no issue). 2. Property was a bit far from main town of Prezeva (15 min drive). We knew this when we booked. We had a car so it was no problem, but I would definitely stay closer or in Prezeva next time. 3. The hotel bar prices are expensive! One glass of wine was 7 euros (very small glass of wine). For reference, I was in Parga for 5 days at a much nicer hotel and a glass of wine was 4 euros (and it was a larger pour and better wine). My fault I didn’t check the prices before ordering. I frequently travel to Greece and I was quite shocked when I got my bar bill.

The hotel is excellent, friendly staff, cleanliness at a high level. Peace and quiet without car noise.

Breakfast is the same every morning.There is no organized beach near the hotel

Immaculate experience! Special thanks to Emanuela & Vaso for all the help, professionalism & continuous willingness to go above & beyond.

The room was spacious and very clean. The view was awesome and the bed very comfy. A large TV screen was available and the furniture was high quality! It was also a 3-seat sofa bed in the room!

Nothing!

maybe if the crickets would sing the night less.

Location of the hotel close to the beach, size of the rooms, attentive personnel, tasty breakfast which includes homemade meals.

Very nice, smaller hotel in a very quiet part of Kanali. Just a 10 min walk to the local taverns and bars. The rooms are spacious, the pool is a nice addition if you don't feel like going to the beach. The personnel were amazing, the reception staff was very welcoming and took good care of us. The breakfast buffet was great as well with a variety of options.

Friendly staff with a great welcome when we arrived. They were also very accommodating when we requested a late check out. Great to have an outdoor café /bar next to the pool. Pool was very clean. We had an enormous room with a lovely balcony with a great view out to sea and Lefkada :-) very close to the beach and bars and restaurants. Lovely quiet beach.

A very minor point but the pool was a little bit chilly. It would have been good to have a kettle and tea /coffee in the room as there was a mini kitchen with a sink. Breakfast was good but not great.
