Lovely holiday, its a very nice resort, rooms were clean, food was delicious, beautiful clear sea although it is a little bit colder as there is a stream coming in from the mountains but you could feel it only in the morning. Also the animators group were fantastic especially Mario! There is a power station near by but honestly we could not hear anything and apart from the visual sight from the beach there is nothing to worry about. Great place for families with children. Thank you.

The cleaning ladies were absolutely amazing. They always cleaned everything in the room very nicely and were also very friendly and kind. The restaurants (Italian, Greek & Vegan) were all amazing as well. I'd only change the pool temperature, because it was pretty cold.

I don’t even know where to start. The location is amazing. Within minutes, you can take a bus to the capital city. The bus stop is right next to the hotel. The hotel itself is older – it’s nothing luxurious or modern, but it’s clean and well-maintained. The room was a bit dated, but it was clean and housekeeping came every day. No mold or anything gross. The bed was comfortable, so no complaints there. However, I can’t imagine fitting an extra bed into such a small room. Food – there was plenty of it available throughout the day, either at the poolside tavern or in the main dining hall. You definitely won’t go hungry, and there’s a good variety. The food was tasty. The only thing I personally missed was more vegetables at breakfast – but that’s just a preference. The beach – beautiful, clean, and private, right nearby. But there were big rocks at the entry point into the water. Entertainment – if you came to this hotel for fun, you’ll probably be bored to death. There are some animation activities during the day (volleyball, darts, water gym – like in almost every hotel), but otherwise not much going on. The evenings are quiet. Maybe a short evening program, and then you go to bed. It’s more of a place for older people looking for peace and quiet rather than for young people looking to party. No disco, nothing. The town itself is also very calm. The hotel gym was honestly one of the worst I’ve seen. The water slides – in the pictures, they looked bigger, but in reality, they were just little slides for kids. One thing that really bothered me was the awful smell in the staircase of the main building around lunchtime. I don’t know if it was garbage or something else, but every day it smelled like someone had thrown up. On the bright side, the staff was friendly and nice. So how do I rate this hotel? It wasn’t bad, but it definitely isn’t a 5-star hotel. Whether you’ll like it depends on what you’re expecting. If you’re looking for peace and don’t have high expectations, this place is fine. If you’re hoping for entertainment and fun – definitely look elsewhere, because you won’t find it here.
