We had an amazing stay! Everything was perfect — from the warm and welcoming staff to the excellent services provided throughout our visit. The hotel has two beautiful outdoor pools: one for children with fun water slides, and a large one for adults, ideal for relaxing and swimming. The breakfast and dinner buffet were also fantastic, with a wide variety of fresh and delicious options every day. Highly recommended for families or anyone looking for a great hotel experience!

Although the staff was very nice helpful, and professional, the resort is in desperate need for maintenance. We also had to change room 3 times (on the basis of a disturbing noise in the first one) and every room we were given had severe maintenance issues. Our third one (246) also had a really bad sewage smell coming from the interior garden. Would not recommend.

Ophold 2 dage med all inclusive

PĂ„ et 2 dages ophold. Hertil var det fint. Ville kede os med 7 dage da det ligger lidt langt vĂŠk fra by. Ligger ikke pĂ„ stranden. Gode senge. Kedelig udsigt fra terrassen. Ville vĂŠlge havudsigt hvis muligt. Hyggelig rooftop bar. PrĂžvede ikke a la carte da der var optaget. Buffet er som en buffet og lokalet er meget “cafeteria agtigt” dejligt at sidde udenfor ved poolen i stedet. Pris og kvalitet passer sammen.

Absolument fantastique

Un hĂŽtel magnifique pour un sĂ©jour inoubliable. Tout d’abord un grand merci Ă  Maria G de la cuisine, Ervin et toute son Ă©quipe en cuisine et en salle, Areti Ă  la rĂ©ception ainsi que ses collĂšgues, le personnel de mĂ©nage, le jeune barman Ă  la piscine
 Vous ĂȘtes au top et vous mĂ©ritez que la direction sache que vous faites un travail gĂ©nial ! Vacances magnifiques dans cet hĂŽtel. Vous commencez par ĂȘtre accueilli chaleureusement Ă  la rĂ©ception, si vous arrivez Ă  l’heure d’un repas ils vous inviterons Ă  aller vous restaurer avant de vous accompagner Ă  votre chambre. Pour ma part une chambre avec piscine privĂ©e en all inclusive. Chambre trĂšs spacieuse, piscine relativement grande, environ 1m40 de profondeur. Des transats, serviettes de piscine (changĂ©es tous les 2 jours). Des gĂąteaux de bienvenues, une bouteille pour ceux qui consomment de l’alcool, des bouteilles d’eau et le nĂ©cessaire pour cafĂ© thĂ©. Serviettes de bain, peignoirs et chaussons, kits coton tige disque dĂ©maquillant lime Ă  ongles et un Ă©lastique Ă  cheveux et une charlotte de douche. Vous trouverez 1 grand flacon de savon liquide pour les mains et 1 grand flacon de 2en1 gel douche/ shampoing. Petit point nĂ©gatif la dessus, pas d’aprĂšs shampoing ni crĂšme hydratante comme il y a quelques annĂ©es, veuillez a en ramener ou en acheter car on se dessĂšche rapidement la peau entre la piscine et le soleil
 et les cheveux aussi ! Point nĂ©gatif sur la sdb pour les portes. Sinon, je recommande vivement !!

IdĂ©alement situĂ© entre La CanĂ©e (10/15min) et les activitĂ©s Ă  l’Ouest de la CrĂšte (1h de Balos Beach et 1h30 d’Elafonisi).

Si vous souhaitez prendre le buffet pour un midi seulement, c’est 15€ par personne : nous avons trouvĂ© ça excessif pour le contenu du buffet, et avons prĂ©fĂ©rĂ© manger ailleurs.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We were interested in upgrading our room for a private pool room since our room was directly facing the main pool, was kind of hard to enjoy the balcony when you can basically have a conversation with the people in the pool. We were told to come back every morning to ask, every morning the price changed and it was a little difficult to even find someone who could even check or do the room change for us really. The kids pool is basically useless since there’s kids jumping around the main pool anyway. The all inclusive breakfast is no where near greek food, was a Cuba buffet. Had to pay 3 euro for an espresso cause that’s not included. Finally I had enough and told them I wasn’t happy and I was checking out early, the AC was terrible, my fiancĂ©es asthma was acting up and there were ants in the room.... the manager didn’t even come see us, the girl at the front told me someone would call me. I never got a phone call! I even emailed the hotel to tell them how unpleasant my stay was and no one ever got back to me. They do not care. If you’re going for a nice greece trip, save yourself the disappointment.

Nice stay but to be improved

In overall, good potentials but food to be improved. - Location: The hotel is in a safe area but too too calm and there is nothing to do around. It's important to have a car, not even restaurants or bars around. The beach is not the main attraction: too wild. Not really a nice area to stay. - Hotel services: from an external point of view, the hotel is pleasant to see. Certainly one of the best in the area. The room was big and clean. The reception was nice and trying to please us. The restaurant/canteen was not great unfortunately. They were always at our back trying to remove our plates and everything. Don't leave your table for 2sec... This was really annoying. Food: Unfortunately the food was not tasty at all. We do not recommend the all-in. The buffet was not extraordinary. But I guess this is typical of the region. We went to the hotel next door (5star - Asterion Hotel) and despite it is a 4 star Solimar aquamarine was by far much better.
