Cannot big this hotel up enough! You can find a nice enough hotel anywhere but it was the staff that made this place truly special. Our waiter Eri was lovely and attentive, always up for a chat, made our meals so pleasant! The day barman and Landi (night barman) were both awesome, always smiling. All the hotel staff was lovely, especially Alex who went out of his way to help us with various needs. The entertainment staff specifically Dannie, Amber and Shane were great, made us feel so comfortable to let go and have a good time. The food was decent, really couldnt complain, always hot and fresh. The rooms were standard, comfortable and clean. Air con was free and had a lovely balcony. Big big smiles from everyone everyday, even when it rained! Thankyou so much for making our holiday in Greece so perfect x

My husband and I stayed here for 2 weeks from 21st June, it's a great little hotel, all the staff from reception to housekeeping are very friendly, helpful and can't do enough to make your stay a pleasant one.Everywhere is absolutely spotless, both inside and outside the hotel,the pool/areas a pleasure to be around with plenty of tables/chairs/shades areas and lovely soft sun loungers and parasols! Food is very good and plentiful with a varied selection and Greek food served as well, Yummy!!! something for everybody, no one should leave hungry! BBQ night is a treat, don't miss it. Rooms are spacious and spotless, towels/bedding changed regularly, we didn't need the towels changing daily even though we could have. The free air con was a massive plus, we had 534 with a view of pools and sea from our equally spacious balcony, only minor grumble is there wasn't any drawers in the room. The bathroom was a good size, clean and modern, The hairdryers are good. I didn't have a problem with the 'grey' walls, for heaven's sake, some people will moan about anything!! The pools are lovely and clean, there's one near the bar where the entertainment/pool activities take place and another upstairs where it's more relaxing, we visited both during our stay, both equally as good as each other. There's a small kiddies pool but it wasn't used much. Drinks are fine, as are the 5 different cocktails in with the AI Soft drinks only at the upstairs pool but you can take alcohol from the bar downstairs up with you. . The entertainment team all work hard and are really friendly whenever you see them. There isn't a kids club and there was only a few children there but there was daytime activities. The hill up to the hotel is not too bad, we are in our 70s and managed it fine, if you have difficulty walking it could be a struggle, especially in the heat. The hotel I thought was in a great location, just five minutes away from the town that has an abundance of bars/restaurants/shops and every street takes you somewhere different, we enjoyed numerous walks during our holiday, you can't get lost, just watch for the planes flying over :) walk back in the direction they are landing,the airport is only a 15/20 drive away but they are not a problem. All in all a lovely hotel, at a reasonable price, ignore the poor reviews and book it! Also if you forget anything there's a cupboard near reception with all sorts that previous guests have left, sun creams, mozzie repellent, after sun etc so check there before you go to the shops.
