Beautiful property near the beach, definitely worth a stay!
Pros:

The property is near the beach. It has three pools, which are quite nice and a kids pool as well which was greatly appreciated by our son. We could easily find available sun beds at one of the pools and at the seaside at all times, which was very relaxing. Breakfast was delicious and all the staff were great and happy to help with any issue.

Cons:

The bed in our room which had two separate mattresses.

Pros:

Alles war einfach top. Alle waren äusserst freundlich. Die Zimmer waren super, und die Nähe zum Strand, trotz Strassenüberquerung, war ebenfalls hervorragend. Es war eine perfekte Balance zwischen urbanem Leben und Erholung. Es hat einfach alles gepasst, und mit Baby war der Aufenthalt besonders angenehm. Auch der Pool war sehr gut, und das gesamte Angebot hat gestimmt. Wir wären gerne länger geblieben, aber leider war alles ausgebucht.“

Pros:

Loved the room and the way it was designed, as well as how tidy it was. It was great to be so close to the beach.

Cons:

It is quite a distance from the old town, unless you want to pay €7 each way to get a taxi

Just amaizing !!
Pros:

Our stay was simply perfect. Celebrating our wedding anniversary here was the best gift we could have given ourselves.

We were truly touched by all the lovely surprises and thoughtful details prepared in our room. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and special.

A heartfelt thank you to Kaliope, Eleni, and Michael for their exceptional service and genuine hospitality. Your kindness and dedication made our stay unforgettable.

We hope to return again soon!

Warm and welcoming hotel, perfect balance for a relaxing stay but also getting out and about!
Pros:

It felt very safe and the staff were all fantastic. You really felt their presence but in a non invasive way. Someone always around and any questions we had were answered straight away. It felt lovely and clean! The breakfast was very good and we really appreciated the briefing on the first morning! The hotel is in an excellent location with everything you could need right on your door step. Our children cried when we had to leave as they had such a great time. Special thanks to Anna in the kids club who we all loved!

Cons:

We booked the 2 bedroom family room, which had beds in the living room and then a separate bedroom. The main door opens into the living area and we didn’t feel comfortable with our two young children sleeping there whilst we were in the separate room. We ended up putting our children in the big bed in the bedroom and we slept in the sofa beds pushed together. Not a huge issue at all but just something to bear in mind when booking.
