“We've been going to Corfu for 19 years now and love it. Our favorite place is St George south, we now go twice a year and it is our second home.”
 
 
“Resort good for those who want to chill out or are here with young families.
 
The resort was made up of a few shops and tavernas.
The beach and sea are very clean and there are water sports. There is some nudity at far end of beach.
I would not hesitate to recommend if you want a relaxing holiday.”
 
 “St George is a great place for a peaceful holiday. Large safe beach, plenty of water sports, sun beds, parasols & very good restaurants. Friendly without being hassled"

This is not a large resort, but there are plenty of supermarkets and gift shops plus a cash point machine". 
 St George is a very laid back resort, suitable for couples and families, however may not be suitable for those seeking an energetic night life. The lively resort of Kavos though is only a 20 minute taxi ride away.
