    • Very clean.
    • Very good sandy beach, clean and cozy room and beautiful pools.
    • Location, Location, Location! This hotel is right on the beach with a gorgeous view from upgraded room. All inclusive meals were excellent and we even had a disco show by the pool bar!

    Cons -

    • Hotel is an all inclusive. But they do everything in their power to make you feel it is not. In the VIP bar they only have one to two bar tenders working max which means you are waiting at least 15 minutes to get drinks.
    • Algae on the beach

    We came for a family vacation, four adults, and booked the Grand Suite - we truly didn’t expect what we received;an entire house tidy, clean, spacious, and luxurious; that served us throughout the holiday to the point we hardly wanted to leave it.The rotating meals and the varied buffet, changing every meal and every day, went far beyond our expectations.We didn’t feel the need to leave the hotel, and honestly, we didn’t even want to.We spent our days on the beach beds, at the pool and the sea, with drinks from the bar and pleasant music.

    The faculties, food options, staff and location were superb!

    The beds, bedding and room furnishings could use and upgrade.

    9KarinaPosted on: 9-15-2025

    Friendly and helpful staff, delicious food. beautiful sea promenade with stunning sunset views and great bar service

    Definitely more of a family hotel, no adults only pool, missed yoga or similar fitness offering

    9AaronPosted on: 9-15-2025

    The staff were very helpful and hospitable. Waffles by the pool!

    I didn’t like sea shore, I wish there was more of the beach. Most of the times all the places were taken by the sea, and it felt cramped

    7GeorgesPosted on: 8-24-2025

    Most of the staff is quite friendly and welcoming and the resort offers a range of activities for all ages making the stay quite enjoyable.

    While the food was OK, it was not great. Additionally, there are a lot of rules that make the vacation less enjoyable. There is a specific time during the day to drop-off/ pick-up beach towels, if water is not picked up from a specific place it is not part of the all-inclusive package, and the dinner restaurants close very early (9:30PM).

    9YoavPosted on: 8-12-2025

    We got upgraded to beach front bungalows - which were amazing! On the beach, a step from the excellent snack bar, 2 steps from the great water park, 3 steps from the dining room and main pool. Beautiful beach! Staff very helpful and most friendly. Great breakfast. All in all - amazing stay, will definitely try to go back.

    Dinner in the dining room was not great. There are additionally two restaurants - one Asian - nice, and one Mediterranean - excellent. Try to make reservations upon arrival. Also the floor near and inside the dining room is a bit slippery, and so were the floors of the porches of our rooms - would be good to do something about it.

    10arielPosted on: 8-4-2025

    Great facility, Long Beach close to the roomsGreat food. Not too big.

    Had to argue on things did not get but after all got everything we wanted.

    9MaanPosted on: 8-2-2025

    The staff were very welcoming, friendly, and helpful, and the rooms and the hotel were very clean overall. The food in the main dining hall was very good and varied from day to day. The pools were also clean and quite big.

    The beds didn't match the quality of the hotel. You had to reserve the good sunbeds quite early in the morning, at around 7 AM. Some areas of the beach weren't fully clean due to the plants washing up on the shore.

    9BasemPosted on: 7-18-2025

    Easy access to the beach, nice and comfortable rooms

    Can be challenging to secure beach chairs and umbrellasFood was fresh, great variety, but was kind of bland

    10MaksymPosted on: 7-13-2025

    We had a room in front of the sea with a private pool. That's amazing for a laid-back vacation.The hotel is great for spending some time with family on the beach. They have plenty of different food. Don't forget to visit the Asian restaurant at least once; a reservation is required.The animation for kids is also good.And I'd like to give my credit to the manager: he is fully dedicated, and I believe it's one of the main reasons why the hotel is so good.

    10LucindaPosted on: 7-8-2025

    The room was very nice, the view was gorgeous and the food was outstanding!

    The only thing I didn’t like was the elevator getting to my room. It was way too small.

    9RebeccaPosted on: 6-7-2025

    Beach, pool. Food was exceptional. Staff tried to make sure my son who has allergies had something to eat

    Everything was great. A couple of times we couldn’t find sunbeds as they had all been reserved

    8ArtursPosted on: 5-4-2025

    Facilities were clean and lovely. Main food hall is huge and there is space for everyone

    - should have at least one more big playground- kids pool was super cold. Even sea seemed warmer- kids club activities are just painting. Expected something more interesting- after mini disko once adult entertainment starts, then someone should clear the floor from all the kids. I find it disrespectful to artist and audiance that there are 3-5 kids that keep running around the artist- should improve Mocktails. They are quite simple

    10PoojaPosted on: 4-28-2025

    Amazing property and amazing location very clean and neat rooms, pool everything was outstanding

    9MayankPosted on: 4-23-2025

    The elaborative food options. Spacious room. Direct access to sandy beaches. Water slides and various pool

    Kids club could do more activity rater than keeping kids in the room.

    10NathalyPosted on: 4-21-2025

    Everything was very clean, the food was tasty and all the meals included in the all-inclusive had a great variety! The staff were kind and extremely helpful, specially because I am pregnant and needed to ask questions about the food, daily activities and etc all the time.

    10YoufangPosted on: 4-21-2025

    The staff was super friendly and professional. The food has a large variety to choose with different options everyday in main restaurant. Every single dish was super fresh and well prepared. The night life also varies from traditional greek dance to a group dance, from a small concert to a mini disco. The seating area around the stage was always full every night before the show starts at 9pm. You will never get bored through a full week of stay. I was invited to a group dance one night and that was the highlight of my stay. The great experience not only came from the fabulous food, fantastic view, extreme comfort, but also from the lively culture and the lovely people.

    Nothing. I wish I can stay longer in this resort.
