A really good holiday for the family. Entertainment team good. It's very clean, well situated but not as advertised in Cala D'or but in Cala Egos.

Travelcity Direct are a very good company and we were pleased with transfers. Nice air conditioned coaches etc.

I didn't like not being told that at pool bar on the lower level you have to pay as it shares it's pool and bar with another hotel so you had a fairly long walk to get your paid for snacks and drinks, not bad for an adult but my 5 year old twins had to climb approx 50 steep steps to get an ice cream.

One critisism of the entertainment team - too loud at night time! Turn the blinkin music down! You had to go outside on the terrace to have a conversation with anyone! also be warned the sun beds are unlocked at 9am and what happens is people just reserve the space on the floor with towels so you could end up with a bed but nowhere to put it - you know who I'm talking about!

Good holiday though, nice staff and nice families go there.

I would definately recommend this hotel to anyone with kids. It is very clean, safe and friendly with lots of activities for the day time eg. darts, water basket, volley ball etc.

The evening entertainment isn't quite as good but still enjoyable. Pirates is a must see show, expensive but well worth it.

We tended to go outside hotel for a sandwich at dinner and would reccomed English run Scooby Doo's. Great value for money.

On a whole this hotel is fantastic and we will definately go there again sometime.

This is a lovely Hotel. The position is excellent. The views from the rooms are breathtaking, so beautiful. You must ask for a sea view. The Hotel is very clean. The rooms are quite spacious, we had a spare bed and cot in our room, and this was fine.

The steps down to the swimming pool and beach are a real pain if you have a buggy. The kids get a wrist band to get free drinks, ice cream and crisps. The only problem is that these are only available from the main bar in the hotel!. Not from the pool bar.

Makesure you get down to the pool at around 8.45 to get a reclining sunbed. Its a bit sad, but if you dont you wont get a good space by the pool unless you go down this early. The pool bar food is good, but they always seem to muddle up everyones order, makesure you always check your bill!.

The entertainment in the first week was rubbish, but in the second week it got better. Makesure you stay and see a group called 4bidden. They were really brilliant. Their is a lovely pub called Sparkles, they are so friendly and have a brilliant band on a Thursday night called wazzup!.
You have got to see them!

Elise looks after the children. Balloons, face painting, party games etc. She is lovely. Also the pony rides in a play park near the hotel are fab!. My little girls loved them. We would visit this hotel again.

The hotel is very clean,rooms cleaned every day.

The food is ok but is a little bland. We had a room with a sea view which was exellent.

The entertainment isnt that good but we went out every night anyway.

We stayed at the Hotel Marina Skorpios in June 2005 for one week.

The hotel and rooms were very clean and cleaned daily. Our room had a lovely view of the sea. We also had a fridge and tv in our room.

The food become a little repetative over the week, but overall there was a good choice and the food was always hot.

Our main grumble about this hotel was there was not enough room and sunbeds around the pool. We never got to sit around the pool once and this was out of kids' holidays. We therefore had to sit on the beach, but were charged 4 euros for each sunbed. Also the sea was full of jelly fish and there were lots of people getting stung.

The entertainment was good when they brought in outside acts, but was very boring when the hotel staff put on a show, which was every other night.

All in all we had a good holiday, but would not go back to this hotel.

This hotel was excellent, it was clean and perfectly situated. The all inclusive buffet was pretty much the same every night, but the snacks on offer during the day were very good. The entertainment was excellent every night, but you do have to be down to the area early on in order to get a seat. The bar staff are a little sparse, but their manner certainly makes up for a little wait.

I would recommend anyone to travel to this propery as it is excellent value for money.

We've been 3 times between the Corfu Marina/Skorpios Marina. We love it- perfect for a family- little cove with beautiful sand.

Smashing place for a safe family holiday, clean beach - all families - -no hassle from drunk youths etc.

Would thoroughly recommend this hotel and its sister hotel.
Beautiful pool/pool area leading onto the beach.

Going back for a 4th time. Can't wait !!!!!!!!!!

10/10 overall

This hotel is excellent.

All staff are very polite and friendly.

It is very clean - you see cleaners cleaning everywhere at all times of the day. The rooms are cleaned every day too.

The deputy manageress is around all the time, is very friendly, chattng to you at breakfast, greeting you for dinner and even joining in with the mini disco.

The food is of a very high standard. There is a very good selection for breakfast, fruit, pastries, cooked, cereal.

There is a big selection for dinner too, catering for everyone.

The free crisps, ice creams, ice lollies and drinks are excellent for the children and saved us a fortune!

The rooms are quite a good size as there were 4 of us, with our bed, our daughters and a cot for our other daughter and there was still enough room and plenty of storage space.

A real bonus is the fridge in the room at no extra cost - this was great for cooling a couple of bears and chocolate for the children!

There is a nice size pool and it was nice to see a life guard there every day, which is quite unusual abroad.

The hotel is right on the beach, but beware of the jelly fish, my daughter got a sting on her foot!

The only down side are the steps, you have to use them to get to the beach, the pool or the kids club (which is held in the sister hotel opposite). It was a bit of a pain with the pram, but the location of the hotel looking down on the beach was gorgeous.

The First Choice Kids Club is very good too.

I emailed the hotel the week before asking for a sea view on a high floor and this request was met. A word of warning if you are at the back, it is a bit smelly - drains I think!

We were there for a week in early May and the first 5 days it was lovely and empty, but towards the end, it did get very busy and breakfast and dinner were quite busy, but there was plenty of food which was replenished all the time.

It did get very busy on the beach and by the pool though, so I am not sure what it will be like in the height of summer.

If you have booked a holiday there, I am sre you will not be disappointed - we will go back one day.

This is the 3rd time we have stayed at this hotel and I'm afraid to say the standard has gone down.

1st Went to the Skorpios back in 2001 for a week, loved it and came back for 2 weeks in 2003, best holiday ever then.

Back again in May 2005 and the hotel, although on a whole is still good, it's not as good, the place has lost its charm and fun.

The food is not as good as it used to be, less selection, food not as fresh, cut backs on tablecloths(the food area looks like a cafe rather than a restaurant now.)

The Entertainment staff seem like just people employed to do a job, no bubbly personalities. The entertainment staff from 2003 were fantastic, had things going on around the pool every 15 minutes or so, not now, very few games around the pool.

Staff on the whole are still as helpful and friendly as ever.

Cleaning staff are also as busy and good as ever.

On the whole quite a good holiday, a dissapoinment however due to staying at the hotel before and having seen higher standards at the hotel.

2 years ago this hotel could have been 4 star, now in only deserves its 3 star rating.

Come on Skorpios get your act together go back to the good old days stop the cost cutting!

Will probably go back but not for a while, just to give them one more chance.

We had an excellent holiday, the self service food was excellent for me (my wife found it a bit to salty and the veg overcooked!).
There is a kiddies food section, a carvery(this was used to dish out curries too)and a vegetarian section.


The bar staff are tireless, miguel the head barman looks like he drinks a litre of strong coffee before each shift.
The cleaners never seem to stop and the hotel manageress can be seen meeting and greeting guests.
The entertainment staff have a mini disco at 8 pm for the kids, and yes you will be humming the songs for months. The main attractions follow at 9pm.
