Pros +
- My waiter at the resort’s restaurant was able to debone the fresh fish table-side for my wife. We really liked that.
- The location was good, best view of the ocean.
- Everything. They provided even early check in without any additional fee. At the same time we got a room upgrade to a better room.
Cons -
- No major complaints. My family and I really enjoyed our short stay at the resort. I was only a little surprised that the resort didn’t offer an exchange for US dollars to Euros. When I’ve travelled in the past to Europe, hotels typically offer that.
- We stayed at the apartment so it did not feel like a hotel. It was old and outdated, the curtains were not clean. The bath also felt very outdated and overall did not feel like we were in a hotel.
- Didn't like that the beach was with stones. The sun beds at the beach were paid ones. 5 eur per each sun bed, even for the hotel guests.

We stayed in one of the ground floor premium rooms, close to the beach. We loved the pool areas! The adults pool is quite luxurious. The pool restaurant was good too. Beach is stony so you need swimshoes. (can be bought in supermarket across the street)Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back. :)
Our patio was small but with our own sunbeds.It had roof over it, yet every morning the floor was wet due to water sprinklers and due to cleaning the restaurant floor upstairs. One morning we were soaked having breakfast.Also our daughter slipped a couple of times on the stone floor and hit her head as the floor was so wet. This needs to be fixed as it's really dangerous! Also, the grass just outside our apartment looked inviting on the pictures, but it was too wet and muddy to play on unfortunately. Also, I believe the pictures of the outside area are not accurate - they're from the building next door with the seaview apartments.The beds are soft and comfortable, but on wheels! So whenever we were leaning back the bed moved. Very strange.
Very clean quiet and in walking distance of restaurants and shops
Lots of choiceBreakfast setting was pleasant
Breakfast was always coldEven though lots of choice you were limted due to the tempeture of the cooked items
Sea view. Hotel location if you were in the main hotel easy access to the beach. Great boat trip and easy car hire.
we needed a late check out due to a very late flight, the hotel was not fully booked yet the reception staff lied and said the hotel was full - The facilities for having a shower etc once checked out are awful it is basically a pool shower, you could only dry your hair if you had your own hairdryer and there was no where dry to put your clean clothes, that is when I booked a room at the hotel using booking.com. Hotel customer relations did get involved and got us a room in the main hotel no refund but they did offer us a free meal for two.
Very spacious family room with huge balcony, kitchen, 2 separate bedrooms, was cleaned and towels were changed every day. Amazing and very tasty food for breakfast and dinner, great variety of food choises on dinner, always some national greek dishes. You can always find free sunbeds near the pool. Amazing aquagym each day with cool dances and music. Sea beach just near the hotel.
All drinks during the dinner (even water) and sunbeds near the sea for extra charge. Poor wi-fi in the room, but better in the lobby. Old-fashioned hairdryer.
Very nice location directly at the beach, nice staff, entertainment programs (sport: yoga, stretching, Zumba, fitness on the beach, aqua gym; in the evening: dance or acrobatics shows, bingo, karaoke etc).The food was also very good (all you can eat buffet).We booked a double room but we got a gratis upgrade (double room+ children's room + kitchen) because it was available
The photo on booking.com doesn't correspond to the reality (it is a mistake: in the room with garden view it was the photos of a room with sea view).Everything was wonderful, if i really have to say something negative maybe I can just say that the furniture in the room was very simple and not that modern like the rest of the hotel and the key card to enter the room doesn't work very well
The stuff was very kindly and helpful, their costumer service was excelent- we had some problem with the hotel dinner and they solved it in no time. The beds are very comfortable- even the sofa beds! The beach is very close, there is car rental at the hotel which is super cofortable.
The breakfast wasn't the best but we managed.
The hotel is in a very good place, on the shore of the Aegean sea, nearby on the road lots of little stores and taverns within just a few minutes walk. On the other side of the road within 1 minute walk there is a little train stop that goes by every hour with a sightseeing tour of the city. The breakfast was nice.There are also 2 restaurants in the hotel, one at the bar by the swimming pools and the other one with a scenic view of the sea. The prices are the same as in the restaurants within a 10-15 minutes walk. There are 5 swimming pools at the hotel - 2 for adults only, 1 for family (deep) and 2 for kids, one of which has an octopus slide. Near the kids pools there is kids playground with a gate to lock if needed. There is a kids club, table for ping pong, field for volleyball, shelves for baggage storage and lockers near the reception. We were with a 4 year old, and ordered the Kids Suite Apartment - we got a kids table with chairs, coloring book and colors, plastic kids kitchenware and also, as a present a t-shirt for him.In the suite we had a kitchen with a little fridge, kitchenware, coffee machine, etc.The air conditioner worked perfectly, we got clean towels every day. On the balcony there was a special rack for laundry drying which was very convenient. Notes: Before arriving we read a lot about the planes going above the hotel and making disturbing noises, we did not see them as disturbing, we would say they were moderate at most, our kid had lots of fun watching the planes so close. At the reception we were told that beach towels are 4 euro per each, we actually had 2 of them in the room so the payment is for the extra ones.
The mattresses were way too soft.Only cable TV.Kids club was a huge disappointment - no air conditioning and very old toys.For almost 24h we were without a soap or shampoo as the dispensers in the room did not workSunbeds on the beach were not free, 5 euro per each. The Basin tap was in very bad conditions and we had to use both hands to turn on the water.In the shower the water temperature was not stable and kept jumping from freezing to boiling.
There are a few pools plus the beach however not all of them are free of charge and one is adults only. Location was good- 15mins to the airport and another 10mins to the cityThe entertainment was great, with various activities during the day(aqua gym, darts, zumba, etc) and an evening show for adults after the mini disco. We LOVED the urban dance night, what great performances! Room was clean and well kept but nothing amazing. We had the family room, which had 1double bedroom plus 2 single beds in the living room/kitchen area- would be great for a family of 4!F&B outlets were open at good times- eg breakfast until 11am, dinner until 9pm, all-inclusive drinks until 11pm and bar until midnight or so.
Value for money! I think the hotel is new at all-inclusive packages, so the lunch/dinner only had 2-3 main course options, vegetarians would need to eat salad, pasta and rice most of the days and for gluten intolerants the options were even less. Most of the food and desserts were quite tasteless and of medium quality. The drinks at the bar that were included were simply bad: margaritas were sweet and had no salt mai tais were super sweet, etc. The purpose of our trip was to spend 3days away from family & work to relax and do nothing but swim and eat. So the quality of the food and drinks was important for us.Pool towels were charged 4€ each (and not a refundable guarantee amount like in other resorts), bottled water was extra (but you can ask for a carafe which is free for your meal or go across the street at the hotel’s mini market and buy a bottle for your room), late check out was a 30€ for the 1hour longer we needed. I was expecting to get a list of what is included and what’s not, but that wasn’t the case so after we got charged for a coffee we started asking and realized some coffees are indeed included and others are not. So always ask! Generally staff were friendly but we did have a couple of restaurant staff that were a bit on the rude side (one didn’t believe our room number was the one we told him).
Area, pool, personal..
At the dinner we paid the water. This is not normal.The cleaning is not so high level.Very expensive the pool bar.We paid for the sofa at beach area.The check-out should be done until 11, is not normal, with pressure from the cleaning lady, she entered directly in our room at 10.50 to inform us that in 10 minutes we need to check-out. As well I want to mention that the « do not disturb » status was well set-up at door.We asked for an iron in the morning and nothing..the day after I asked again for and they bring it to me for few hours, in the evening was not there anymore.The internet connection is horror!All those small things are important to be improved as soon as possible, otherwise you will lose the potential customers!!!
We got a double room with a sea and pool view, it was great! The staff was super nice and helpful and the breakfast is great.
Paying extra for pool towels. Some of the games were out of order.
Sea front rooms Facilities in the deluxe apartments made it easy to cook a quick breakfast Facilities of the super market infront of hotel and nice restaurants
Breakfast too expensive Noise of the airplane
Everything about the hotel was perfect. The breakfast was delicious, the room was clean and very close to the sea. It was 30 seconds for us to reach the beach. Even though the sunbeds are 5 Euros it wasn't a problem for us because our room was in the garden and had sun beds in front of it. We would like to thank the staff for this wonderful stay.
Since our room was on the garden, we found a few bugs in the room.
The wonderful staff and breakfast/Thalassa the restaurant were the only things we enjoyed.
The most over priced, outdated, disgusting accomodation we’ve ever stayed at. Dirty grout in the showers/bathroom floors, discoloured yellow silicon, broken tiles in bathrooms with exposed foam and pipes. Extremely outdated amnesties. Very soft, unsupportive mattresses, so uncomfortable, as if we were sleeping on beanbags. Rooms so bright (due to glass doors) we all found it so difficult to sleep at nights and impossible to enjoy a sleep in - especially with the loud guests all around, definitely not sound proof at all. The pools were full of missing tiles, the kids slides were covered in algae it was disgusting. The kids playground/swings (old and cracked), but the kids enjoyed it even though they had their fingers/toes scratched several times coming down slide. Our aircon was dripping water from the ceiling vent, as a result both children were hurt due to slipping over water on the tiles. Maintenance took their time coming to fix the issue, we had to go down to reception three times!!!The wifi included doesn’t work, pointless to say they offer it at all. And if you have an issue with planes (we do not) don’t book here as it is directly under the flight path and you constantly hear them.
Excellent food/ staff and location.
No complaints. Thumbs up all round.
Good resort as advertised
But not advertised it was very poor for disabled and very poor disability scooters we ended up driving on the road
Very clean well equipped room albeit a bit dated … loved the infinity pool although had to get down there for 8am to reserve beds … all staff friendly and helpful … proper quality place … excellent choice at breakfast … highly recommend in our opinion !!! We paid for a sea view and it was worth it … love this place !!! ????
Bit dated in places … didn’t appear to be air-con in reception … got note on car for parking Rodos car in car park as they push Sun Car hire … thought that was a bit off … it is what it is … overall cracking place and plenty of good shops and eateries nearby !!! ?
