Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Fantastic service and price from Panos at Costas Boat Hire. We hired a boat for 8 of us and had a fabulous day out. Quick lesson out on the water then off we went.
Great quality boat, complete with life jackets, cool boxes and emergency flares, and map showing maximum distances the fuel would allow us to travel. We spent the whole day out on the water and had an amazing time. Thank you Panos and Sam, we will be back.

Good boat, clear simple instructions. Very relaxed and welcoming. No hassle when we got our anchor stuck under a seabed pipe and had to jettison it!

We have absolutely nothing negative to say about this place. We hired a boat for five of us, one with limited mobility, and all of us had the most amazing day! Will definitely use again. Excellent tuition and even a cool box for our drinks....we ALL thought it was the best day of our hols! Thank you!

I had already hired a boat for the day from another crew in Kassiopi and because of this unpleasant experience, was very sceptical about all boat hire on the island of Corfu. I invite all potential renters both novice, and experienced, to source and read that review.

On telling the people at Costa's of my bad experience they invited me to look at their very high standard boats and took me for a quick spin in one of their fine craft. I rented one the following day and there were no problems whatsoever. And even if there had been Costa's have a boat out on patrol all day making sure all is well with the boats you hire. We must have seen that boat five times that day..

A totally different experience from start to finish. I do hope folks that you find Costa's first...

We were staying close to San Stefanos and so this was very conveniently located. Service was good, boat was good and location is great. Pricing is also sensible. Would not hesitate to recommend them. Once you drop off the boat there are some lovely bars and tavernas to recover from your day on the boat.

Not being sea savvy I approached boat rental with some trepidation but after my 10 min tutorial with Sam I took to the big expanse of constantly moving blue outside of the bay heart in mouth,after 10 mins I was loving it! Best bits were a cove just south of cape varvara and some more just before kouloura there are also some beautiful properties along this part of the coast. I did go as far up as kassiopi harbour to pick up the rest of my family,be warned when the easterly wind is up in the afternoon the sea up past cape varvara is not for the faint hearted especially in a small boat.spent the rest of the day between avlaki and agni where the sea was pancake flat.by the time we returned the boat I and my son's were competent boatmen, the guys at costas boats were fantastic at talking us through the procedures of anchoring up tying off and having a great day, if I'm ever in the n/e of corfu again I will definitely be hiring another boat of these guys.six of us took an eight man boat with 30hp motor which was adequate at 65euros and 38euros for fuel it was well worth it as most other hirers start at 100-110euros before petrol use! I would recommend this company to anyone wanting a superb days boating around this beautiful part of the world.Happy holidays!

Before setting off two members of of our group were given comprehensive instructions including a short trip out to practice the controls. The boat was clean and comfortable and life jackets were stored in case of any problems. We appreciated the loan of a cold bag so that we were able to take cold drinks. The boat was quite big enough for six adults and the cost was very reasonable. We had the boat for the whole day, returning it by 6 pm.

It was great fun seeing the little bays and taking a dip in the lovely cool, sea.

We stopped at Agni for lunch. The taverna was great and mooring up was easy with assistance from the staff.

It was a great day out and one we shall all remember for a long while.

Costas Boats have been a highly reliable service to us for the past 11 years. The boats are all in excellent condition and with comfortable seating - from a little 15hp to the larger vessels. Their flexible approach and friendly manner add to the enjoyment of such a lovely area.

We have been going to Corfu for 10 years and Costas Boats has been a firm favourite since, from the days of Costas and Christina, to Zoe and Panos and then to Sam. There is no better way to explore and love Corfu, than to rent a boat, and there is no better place to rent one, than from Costas Boats! I would strongly recommend Costas Boats to any one who is looking to rent a boat in Aigos Stefanos, as they are safe and of a very high standard!

There isn't a more pleasant way to spend a day than pottering along the fabulous coastline of the north east coast , on an azure sea. The view from your lovely clean boat is infinitely better than by road struggling with other tourists for parking and avoiding scooters ! Stop at a beautiful bay , swim and gently bob along a little further then pull in to one of the great tavernas along this pretty coastline .
Don't worry Panos and Sam will see you right , give great tips on where to go and give you a lesson on how to enjoy the best of your little boat and your day . Lovely memories of Corfu , a whole new perspective ...enjoy !
