If you're seeking a serene escape for true rest and relaxation, this place is perfect. The beach is right in front, and it's wonderfully private—often, you can have the entire beach to yourself. There's also a swimming pool, which is lovely at night, though personally, I didn't feel the need for it. The staff is incredibly pleasant and accommodating, adding to the overall relaxing experience. The breakfast is also very nice, offering a standard selection that starts your day off right. All in all, it was a very relaxing and pleasant stay. Highly recommended!
I was greeted with "I remember you" and it was not in a positive way because I had some problems with my credit card and the hotel wanted to cancel my reservation. So I think they tricked me and didn't offer me the room I paid for. I paid for an unobstructed view of the sea and you can see in the pictures below what I received. I am extremely disappointed with this treatment because the location was very important in my choice of this hotel. To be fair, I will also list the positives: the room and balcony are generous. The bed is at the limit of comfort. The bedding was changed once every 2-3 days. The evening meal at the hotel bar/restaurant was good, the service was also good. The air conditioning was fine. Yes, there is access to the private sea with a deckchair + umbrella, but the beach is full of stones and it is very painful to walk with bare feet. Yes, there was a pool but we didn't use it. Negatives: obviously the sea view. The shower tub was chipped, the water in the shower had no pressure. In one weekend, 3 evenings in a row, we didn't have hot water (the hotel was full and the water was heated by the sun). I didn't need it because I had it at home, but the soap offered by the hotel leaves something to be desired. There were only 2 outlets in the room, only 1 was working. The furniture is old, when I placed a blouse on a shelf in the dresser it broke. In conclusion, this hotel did not deserve 4* and customers should not be lied to in this regard. Greece is a beautiful country, but it's a shame that they allow such a hotel to operate.
We arrived at this hotel after staying and canceling the rest of the time we had booked due to dissatisfaction at another hotel in the area. But it seems that the same tactic is followed throughout the region. The hotel (bungalow) is very old, neglected and without maintenance for many years. The photos on the site do not correspond to reality since e.g. the wooden tables on pebbles are completely neglected, without any maintenance for years and of course no one sits on them. The amenities are non-existent and are limited to a dispenser (shampoo & conditioner in the bathtub) and a soap that hardly produces foam. The pool bar is reminiscent of a camping and not a 4* hotel, as is the reception which is outside under an awning like in some camping. The hotel under no circumstances meets the 4* conditions announced on the site and on holiday accommodation search platforms. The Balkan service employee did not speak Greek!!!! Its price that announced to us is outrageously expensive because "everyone sells the same in the area" as the foreign employee at the reception told us! The cleanliness is average (only the absolutely necessary). The breakfast is satisfactory but by no means rich like a 4* facility. Anything more than €60-70 (bed & breakfast) is not worth this facility. The internet simply not existed. For these reasons, our stay was limited to one night (could be no night but was difficult to find another settlement) out of the planned 5 in total.
