This place is just what you need for a relaxing break plenty to for the kids really stress free great pools huge variety of food beach on the door step great supermarket 10 minute stroll down the beach also few restaurants n bars hassle free holiday, And fantastic ice coffee from the great fella Kostas in the bar  reception area

There is a little Greek restaurant just down the beach and was nice

There were ample sunbeds at the beach and around the pool.

We wandered along the beach and had a fabulous meal at Alexandria.

Also try Alexandros taverna down the beach, food was sensational!

The beach was excellent and so was the bars and snack areas with on tap drinks and kebabs Costas did a great job.

The same rules regarding reservation were signposted on the beach.

Good points - 
Omlette lady
Entertainment Staff
Close to beach

Bad points: 
Food - terrible other than the omlettes at breakfast.

walk the beach side to get to roda as the hill is a killer.

The beach was absolutely beautiful and clean.

The beach was also very close and clean, which makes moving between the pool and beach very easy.

Facilities pools beach, bars,  sunbeds , views, very good.

The Hotel is in a stunning location, gardens, beach and the buildings on the outside are well kept.

The beach is beautiful and the beach bar over looking the sea is stunning, the walk to Roda village is beautiful.

We like a few other guests chose to eat at the Alexandros taverna just down the beach where the food was excellent.

The snack bars were great and the staff in those were lovely and the staff in the beach bar were lovely too.

I know only one thing we had a lot of experiences with five star luxury hotels , for example we satyed before Laguna resort Nusa Dua in Bali , 4 plus star , Queen of Montenegro , this hotel at all does not match five star criterias.i definitely not recomment anybody to stay in this hotel , apart from I mentioned before hotel itself was beautiful and very ggood looking (((,and the hotel was very clean

Guest relations staff “Persofoni”dealt with our concerns and upgraded our room and provided us with free spa treatment.

If you guessed correctly which songs would be 1, 2 and 3 for number of dancers you won a prize which for the winner when we attended was a free 30-minute paddle boarding session.

but there seemed to be enough space and free sun beds.

Food and free bar were included, stopped for us to swim in the sea, told us facts along the way, had a really lovely time.

Another wonderful trip, the food was excellent, the atmosphere relaxing and rejuvenating, the food was top and the added bonus of the snack bars was a welcome addition to my almost constant feeding.

though it was August we never had a problem getting a sun lounger on the beach,most days we went down about 9am and still managed to get 4 beds.All have umbrellas which is great shade for the kids.The sea is shallow for a long way out which is great for messing about on inflatables and playing bat and ball.We took advantage of the free pedalos and did some paid for water activities and really enjoyed.

Moreover, the free water activities - pedalos, paddle boards, and more - were elevated by the sea's optimal conditions.

It’s good that there are free sun loungers on the beach too.

After 5, the sun longes become free, when the sea is at its best!

Gluten and Lactose free options were pointed out and made available, with options to have pizzas etc.

We only found out on the last day the pedalos, paddle boards and kayaks were free which was great fun to use!

We did utilise the free pedalos a great deal which the kids loved.

And we - the parents - got a few hours of free time.

Tip - go grab a spot in the garden in front of the beach - comfy and near the pool, beach and bars and when sun beds become free later in the day you're well situated to grab them!

There is no coordination by hotel staff, just a massive free for all.

Take your own kids cutlery that type of stuff really helps.

But the kids enjoyed it which is the main thing.

The main pool area is  really nice and was enjoyed by all the children, out of season so no issues with getting sun loungers.

Perfect family resort as plenty of activities for kids.

Having just arrived home after 7 nights at roda beach hotel in Corfu and what a wonderful time.Cannot find fault with anything, cleanliness, staff were very good and helpful especially Maria and her male friend in the restaurant we hugged them and I miss them both when we left .We were a party of two grandchildren girls they didn't want to leave, this review is genuine,go to Corfu we will go again next year.bye Roger and family.October 2023.

I have always recommended roda beach to people with young children

We booked the italian for a meal and no faults it was lovely even the wine was a beter quality than the main resturants, shame we were only allowed to book one out of the 3 (new hotel policy)
The slush machines were gone this year along with the nice icecreams the kids were very disapointed as they were looking forward to them.

The animation team was a highlight of our stay, offering an array of sports, games, and an engaging night program at the outdoor theatre, including kids' disco, karaoke & dance show performances.

Gently sloping entrance to the sea, great for kids and adults alike.

The beach has a gentle gradient so it’s perfect for small children.

Another rude member of staff is Lia in the creperia she also liked shouting at guests & was very unpleasant at times, maybe she is Spiros's daughter.

Fabulous complex, on the edge of a sandy, very shallow sea, great for the kids.

The evening program offers a mini disco for small children (and for parents), followed by well-choreographed evening shows, musicals and other entertainment for the whole family.

We stayed as a family of four (children aged 8 and 5) in a Premium Family Room with Private Pool for 10 nights.

We had a nice time at the hotel with a 10 night stay and children aged from 5 to 15.

Kids:
Although the kids loved the holiday it was away from the hotel.

It is the best hotel for families and the water slide drove our children crazy!

Vegetarian food choices were poor - we ate chips all week!

This was a terrible hotel with very poor hygiene resulting in multiple families including us ending up very sick.

The drink selection was poor, and they ran out of fizzy orange very early into the week unless you were at the outside bars.

The quality of the food was very poor for a 5 start hotel, cooking oil used for olive oil, no

but the quality was poor we were informed by a member of staff it was old food coming out of the freezers as it was near end of season.

The shower wasn’t the greatest (poor pressure).

..food quality and choice very poor, basically as long as you like pork and  then more pork you'd be ok.  .breakfasts okay mostly

We did not eat at the hotel again after the third day due to our concerns and also the food from the Italian was actually very poor.

The entertainment was very poor so going into the nearest town was the only option for some entertainment and a decent drink at night.

The food and drinks are of a poor quality  (no orange juice or fresh milk at breakfast for instance, squash and UHT instead, I could go on…) I think keeping costs down is at the forefront of the hotel owners mind.

There’s a sign saying the management pick the best fruit available, its basic nothing remotely exotic, very poor.

but the size was really poor,  when we first arrived we had beer in expresso cups !!!

but ended up leaving because the menu choice was poor
Shop on complex very overpriced I saw one lilo priced for €50!!!

Very long queues, rather poor selection of food with very little variety.

We witnessed lots of tempers boiling  over due to poor service.

Sunbeds  - Although there are signs on all umbrellas that state, towels will be removed if they are there between 8-9am don't let this fool you, all beds gone by 7.20am, both beach and pool. Some poor families were led on the hard ground on towels, yes there are 6 other pools,

I did notice by the end of the week the choices were poor though.

Over booked massively with rooms in poor conditions needing a massive upscale and in my opinion is over priced.

In short, I wouldn't stay again despite the great location and facilities because of the poor food and drink service.

This is our 3rd visit to roda beach, the first was amazing so we came back the following year and again had an amazing time, we haven’t had a holiday since the end of 2019 and so decided we would book again as we loved it each time.

So we book in, pay the EU tax, get our wrist bands on, given a Map of the Complex, a porter showed us to our Room.

So me and my boyfriend booked this holiday for my 21st birthday seeing as the photos were gorgeous and it was 5 star all inclusive for cheap - what a mistake.

This was actually quite nice and the new rule that you can't reserve sunbeds before 9am was brilliant as you didn't have to get up at the crack of dawn to reserve one.

When we booked we were excited to try each of the four listed restaurants on site (Italian, Greek, Asian and the standard buffet),

Booked this hotel for a holiday to end the summer for myself and my wife.

On a whole our experience was thoroughly enjoyed and we will be looking to book there again. For a first time all inclusive i would fully recommend :-)

I needed to see a doctor, which hotel can book for you.

A lot of them being reserved with the hotel  bathroom towels or 1 towel over 3 or 4 beds.

:)  

We booked into the spa for massages/an exfoliation for myself and it was amazing.

We could also only book 1 restaurant near the beach as we were only there for 7 days, again this was a change from last time.

however they really try to talk you into booking more services 
Horse riding excursion was great really good fun
Offer car rentals and excursions 

Cons ✖️
Location is very quiet.

A la carte Asian and Italian restaurants (one booking per week) were fantastic could not fault them.

If you want wi-fi in the room again there is a €50 refundable deposit for this also.

The reviews of this place are very accurate and sadly we hadn't read them all before booking.

Italian Restaurant-we booked the morning after arrival for the Italian with no problems getting a reservation for 7.45 which was a perfect time as we got to watch the beautiful sunset.Here we were served by Adam who was excellent.Pizzas were good

Staff:Staff were very mixed some seemed to severely dislike all the guests and some were lovely.

Nice location, staff were all lovely (apart from one of the female receptionists).

Moreover, Lorenzo did not conquer us with a smile,

Nicos the porter helped me with my suitcase to my room.

Even the staff say they don’t want to return- that says it all!

Most of the staff didn’t seem to care .

Waited hours in reception to get moved rooms.

all in the staff are polite and courteous.

Enjoyed our birthday party organised by animation team.

The staff around the resort are welcoming and friendly and are happy to help.

The omelette cook was always cheerful and happy to make you your morning eggs.

Very surprised at some of the negative reviews as staff were helpful and clearly working hard and putting in long shifts.

Found the waiting staff to be polite and attentive as were all of the staff.

but kids can play and the water is very shallow and calm, lovely to swim in.

)The bars ran out out of lemonade to go with any spirit and they would give you soda water whether you wanted it or not.

We never saw any cleaning happening while we were at the hotel, the food was luke warm.

Pools:
First thing to note is that every pool on site is salt water apart from the spa pool.

We were all sick
After day two, 3 of us came down with D+V and couldn’t even keep water down.

The water sports available were good too!

Many thanks to Panos and Costa at beach bar both friendly & up for a laugh, made our coffee , filled our water bottles ( as water bottles put in room very hit & miss ) and of course our Vodka's & Coke's.

but lunch and dinner luke warm at best and very repetitive to say the least.

We had lots of towels, robes, mini fridge and water.

Our room was cleaned on a regular basis with fresh towels and bottled water delivered daily.

We'd also recommend that rooms are cleaned daily and water is provided daily as out of the five nights we stayed this only happened on three occasions.

Fine if you are a strong swimmer or good at floating as due to the amount of salt in the water it does enable you to float easier.

The resort is on a beautiful clear and shallow water beach, also lined with sun loungers so you’re not short of choice on where to chill out and sun bathe.

The water sports are as fun as they painful!

Fanta, coke an sprite, plus orange juice and water available, and a range of cocktails, beer and wine available from 10am.

Room fridge was restocked with bottled water every day.

The room service works perfectly, cleaned every day and water refilled.

Mini bar was not filled every day and it was only water, no other drinks.

Amazing resort, room cleaned daily and fresh water provided without fail.

Pros ✔️ 
Large resort with beach very nearby
Fresh drinking water, tea and coffee daily
Majority friendly staff especially Kostas at the coffee kiosk!

we can safely say that this hotel is one of the best in Thailand: good rooms, delicious food, perfect beach, excellent service, beautiful views.

but did enjoy casual lunches at the beach restaurant.

The hotel is situated right on bang Tao beach which is stunning!

There is a complimentary boat and bus shuttle to nearby Laguna shops and restaurants

The rooms are large and well appointed, the public areas spacious and the location between the beach and lagoon ideal.

It is at a good location in Laguna Complex, you can easily get to the beach.

Beach restaurants next door and little town in 5min with shops, supermarket, pharmacy, all you need

As a long term resident of the Laguna, this is a first
And will avoid the hotel in the future.

Hotel is located on the beach front which was very clean.A number of beach 
Bars/ restaurants  are nearby and offer excellent local and European food at very reasonable prices.Lots of young families having a most enjoyable time.

Love being able to go from the pool to the ocean so easily and taking the shuttle between ferry’s and tuk tuks between hotels and Canal village.

The beach is beautiful clean, The Front staff are kind and friendly.

For cocktail, we try Chalong bay rum which is authentic Phuket rum.

The restaurant next to the beach was mesmerising.

Gorgeous hotel, and quiet beach right on the door step.

There are a few bars/food places on the beach nearby

A great beach location with stunning views.

This resort has a great view , nice set up of breakfast , provide good selection of reakfast , nice club lounge and excellent staff !

The main part we enjoyed during our stay is the access to the Club Lounge.

The club lounge is lovely and surrounded by greenery and F&B was good.

We really enjoyed the Club Lounge last time and had hoped it would be as good.

The staffs are very courteous and the service standard of Housekeeping Staff, Food&Beverage Staff, Club Lounge as well as Front office is excellent.

The Club lounge was a fantastic additional benefit with a good selection of drinks and canapes in the evening.

Dont forget the cozy Voyager 47 Club Lounge , at the laguna, - serving tapas, cocktails, coffee, tea and drinks - delicious and relaxing in a very beautiful scenery.

The Voyager 47 Club Lounge was visually attractive and was near the lagoon with lots of seating areas near the water.

We had access the club lounge, this is a fab lounge the staff or amazing nothing is any trouble to them they are always smiling.

The service provided to us by the staff at the Club Lounge was excellent.

The restaurants were great and the club lounge was a bonus.

The only down side was the quality of the food in the Club Lounge, apart from that, everything was spot on.

I was a member of a club lounge, so I had access to drinks and snacks which was amazing,,,really worth paying for it.

beach access, gym, restaurant food, club lounge and the quality of the complimentary wine in the lounge was of a high standard.

We loved the breakfast in the Club Lounge.

the club lounge was the best we have ever experienced!

Staff in club lounge we’re friendly and courteous.

The club lounge was just fabulous The staff were so professional and attentive and the chefs are excellent providing 5 star canapes in the evening as taster sides from their Voyager 47 menu  with you'r coctails.

Definitely outside the norm for a club lounge anywhere on Asia.

Good mix of cardio equipment and free weights and some weight machines.

Lots of activities to do on the resort like free sailing and SUP.

The hotel provides a free shuttle service to and from the complex and the Laguna entrance, where there are numerous shops and restaurants.

As a family we enjoyed the free tennis, archery, paddle boarding and kayaking.

The hotel offers a free tuktuk bus or boat to get around Laguna which are fun activities even just for the ride.

Facility, breakfast, swimming pool, free shuttle/ferry around the village, overall five star experience.

My daughter is a coeliac and the staff made a huge effort to make gluten free food.

Perfect hotel, unreal sea view room (free upgrade on arrival!

There is also a free bus to a local outside food market.

There is the shopping area in Laguna which able to get free shuttle bus to go.

Very smooth check in process, and we really appreciated the complementary glass of chilled fruit juice on arrival after a long day's travel.

Excellent hotel cannot rate it enough well worth the club room upgrade and the free lagoon boat trips a must 
With the Beach Pig next door and the other bars just did us right no need to travel to far

Regular free ice lollies around the pool is a nice touch.

but loads of restaurants along the beach front and also along “boat avenue” which is a 15-20 minute walk or you can get the free shuttle bus and walk the last 5 minutes.

The resort includes free water activities like sailing, kayaking, and paddleboarding, and there are jet skis available for rent right by the resort, with parasailing farther down.

Free boat and bus can be used to access other hotels in area.

We upgraded to a club room and had lots of treats ( free soft drinks, afternoon tea which was lovely to do when it rained and free cocktails and taster menu) the weather wasn’t brilliant as it was rainy season

One of the highlights of my stay was a free bike they let me use for free, and I was able to explore the surrounding area.

It gives you a larger room and also access to desserts and coffee/tea post-lunch and free alcoholic drinks and snacks (although some deep fried) at 6pm.

Not the best hotel for couples as I would rate it a family resort with the pools and waterslide and many kids running around.

We had a great 9 night stay with our toddler.

Our room is spacious and the daybed was the perfect replacement for our daughters usual baby cot.

Recommended for family vacation with kids.

She helps us with organisation of daughter’s birthday, restaurants, zipline etc.

The hotel is very clean, meals are great and the room was perfect for us, a family with one child.

The pools are good and one good slide which kept the kids entertained for hours.

I wish there could be a few more lifeguards to help ease the parents concerns with kids playing on the beach.

The location and facilities is just perfect specially for kids.

The pool is big and has a huge waterslide which the kids loved and shout out to the kids club and the team of caretakers.

The room was cleanliness  , many  thing for complomentary     , there are  many activities  ,the staff  a very helpful esspecially  Operator/ and foods very deliciuus,the pool  very  goods , and kid clib for children

this time we went there just for relaxing and playing with kids at swimming pool.

The pool area is ok suitable for families and kids.

The hotel in PhiPhi island and Pucket has several swimming pool where the kids can enjoying.

though is that they are very much marketed as a kid friendly family hotel.

/ a very friendly and fun receptionist lady (Thai) and a guy (we apologize that we can't remember their names)
> all of them remembered the names of our kids and made us feel home and welcomed
The taxi drivers where all also very friendly and helpful.

A special mention goes to Zin and Nusa from the club house who were exceptional, thank you.

A couple of grumbles in that smoking is allowed around the pool and the sun beds have seen better days.

There were so many kids around too and people were chain smoking 🙄

Hotel is looking old rooms were okay smelt damp tv had no Netflix 
We booked a sea view

One room smelled so bad that it burned our eyes.
