Pros +
- Everything. Staff are exceptionall. Facilities exceptional.
- The hotel, the meals, the friendliness of staff members (Nia and Daniel at Reception and Tasos the Manager). In a nutshell, everthing was exceptional.
- The beach , my suit was amazing, the service at the hotel was amazing
Cons -
- Felt a bit trapped because transfers to other places on the island were too expensive. Shame because other beaches on the island are beautiful, and they should encourage guests to visit them. Only other thing to be aware of is that there are rooms without pools. If the primary reason for a guest to be there is to experience the "marketed" image, then that will be an issue for them.
- The fact that I had to check out
- I didn't like there lunch menu and there dinner menu , stuff cooked not right.Also that never was discussed with me that I have to pay for transportation every time I leave the hotel €70 just to go downtown to grab dinner bc we didn't like the food at the hotel.

Calilo is one of the most extraordinary hotels we have ever been in. We didn’t know anything about it and were completely blown away. Staying there is like being on a set of a movie. You can really feel that the owner have poured their heart and souls into it. Every little detail is thought off and executed with perfection. If you want to experience something very unique this is the best place in the world to stay at. It is like staying at a Goudi museum with staff that makes you feel like royalty. It is not only the facilities that are out of this world but the energy and vibe made this place so special.
Beach beds are exceptional.. cleaning twice a dayPet friendly
The angry cat in breakfast
The breakfast was exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble and the chefs will create anything for you which you wish. The staff are extraordinary. Every single minute of each day.
There is NOTHING at this resort which could be better. Everything is exceptional and everything is extraordinary ~ like nothing you e ever seen before.
it was the most beautiful hotel it was like paradise. the staff was unbelievable so helpful in every way. I used the gym everyday the yoga instructor was amazing. forget 5 star this place should be a 10 star.
nothing not to like
The hotel is far from expectations. The concept wanted to be impressive, but it is extremely kitsch, an abundance of poor quality objects (a lots of plastic hart’s, peppa’s pig mascot at the reception, a lot’s of statues etc). The cleanliness of the common spaces leaves much to be desired, the pools are dirty, the windows dusty, the menu poor and expensive. The rooms do not offer privacy, the window of our room was in the middle of the restaurant, and there is no privacy in the inner courtyard, repeatedly entering tourists who thought it was a common space.
However, the hotel staff is very kind, willing to offer you friendly support.
Staff are professional and attentive. The beach is beautiful. Unique hotel. Breakfast is excellent.
It just has 1 restaurant and the food is of poor quality and overpriced. The pool in villa is freezing (not heated), we couldn’t swim. Nothing to do at night, no activities in hotel and its location is so far from city (40 minutes away).
EVERYTHING! Amazing staff, amazing room / pool / private beach. The included breakfast was delicious. In the cabana's, they provide you with a button to request help from a staff (towels, sunscreen, food, drinks) which was so efficient. Will definitely come back.
Only thing that could have made this better would be free transfers and if it was an all-inclusive. We had to pay extra to go to a sister hotel / near the city and to another beach. We had an additional ~1K in extra (food, drinks, etc) since there is nothing that's close to the hotel.
I like everything of this hotel, the staff, the service, the room and the hotel in general. Every people of the staff make you feel at home. Laura the concierge help us with every request we made and was always for us. This is a hotel where you will love everything and you do not want to leave.We will come back for sure.
