We enjoyed our stay especially me who was here after 25 years again :)
Pros:

Great beach and very nice staff! Room had a beautiful view and enough space for a family of 4.

Cons:

The À la carte restaurants were fully booked and could only attend once while we were there. The swimming pool are was all the time full. Cleaning of the room could have been better and the food in the buffet was ok but not 5 star quality. Also our mini private pool (could be used by 4 rooms) was full some days with several people so not sure they were guest of those rooms..

Too expensive.
Pros:

Facilities.

Cons:

We got our room at 14:00 and it wasn't even close to our Family suite with personal courtyard.
We got a simple room with all the beds in the same room and we have to climb two floors to get there without an elevator.

Pros:

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Tout s’est parfaitement déroulé du début à la fin.

Les restaurants sont excellents, avec beaucoup de choix et une très bonne qualité. Chaque repas a été un vrai plaisir. Le personnel est également formidable : toujours souriant, agréable, à l’écoute et très professionnel. Le service est irréprochable, ce qui rend le séjour encore plus agréable.

Petit conseil : pensez à réserver les restaurants avant votre arrivée afin d’être certain d’avoir une place dans ceux que vous souhaitez découvrir.

La plage de sable est magnifique, très propre et idéale pour la baignade. On peut s’éloigner assez loin du bord tout en gardant pied, ce qui est parfait aussi bien pour les familles que pour ceux qui aiment profiter de la mer en toute tranquillité.

Nous recommandons cet hôtel sans hésitation et y reviendrons avec grand plaisir !

Pros:

Wunderschönes Hotel ,sehr schöne und saubere Zimmer!
Hatten ein Zimmer mit Blick aufs Meer und einen swim up direkt vor der Terrasse .
Einfach was man wissen sollte Besuch in den Restaurants früh genug noch zuhause buchen da es schwierig wird mit einem Tisch.
Das Essen im Haupt und großem Restaurant ist Geschmacksache .
Sonst alles sehr gut

A deeply disappointing and expensive week that felt more like living on a construction site
Pros:

The one genuine highlight was the staff—throughout the entire hotel they were genuinely lovely, accommodating, and wonderful people. The kids club staff in particular were engaging and great with the children.

Cons:

The resort felt like an active construction site. The pool was dirty with floating plastic bottles on arrival, a construction truck was parked outside our room with no clear removal date, and the air reeked of tar and burning materials throughout our stay. Our newly constructed room smelled heavily of paint, and we found improperly cut cables and debris left inside—particularly concerning with two young children, including a baby. Outside our door, staff stored enormous bags of dirty laundry and cleaning supplies.
The air conditioning was stuck on cooling mode for the entire stay, even when nighttime temperatures dropped to thirteen degrees—after five complaints, a technician finally admitted the entire building's system needed to be switched over to heating. The kids club kept children inside a convention center all week, even on sunny days when temperatures reached twenty-two degrees. The steak restaurant required a five-day wait to book, and when we finally got there the steaks were dry and the salads uninspired. Service across the hotel was slow, with waits of up to twenty minutes even for a simple coffee.

Additional info: The resort has been reporting the images I have attached trying to get those removed.

Pros:

- Różnorodność posiłków i restauracji.
- Super plaża przyjazna dla rodzin.
- Fajny basen.
- Dużo leżaków zarówno przy plaży jak i przy basenie. W zasadzie nie było sytuacji, żeby nie udało nam się znaleźć dwóch leżaków obok siebie.
- Parking przy samym hotelu działa nieźle mimo niewielkiej liczby miejsc parkingowych.
- Wi-Fi działało dobrze.

Cons:

- Tłumy ludzi. To naprawdę duży obiekt z bardzo dużą rotacją gości. Kolejki były na porządku dziennym.
- Hałas. Prosiłem o cichy pokój, a dostałem pokój nad imprezą. Pokoje na pierwszym piętrze w głównym budynku są mega głośne i nikt nas o tym nie uprzedził. Codziennie (!) od 21 do 23 panuje duży hałas, więc jeśli nie planujesz zabierać małego dziecka na imprezę do 23, usypianie i sen będą wyzwaniem.

Dwie rzeczy zupełnie nie działają w tym hotelu:
- System ręczników plażowych. Wielokrotnie nie mogliśmy doprosić się o dostarczenie ręczników. Recepcja kazała czekać na nie w pokoju, ale nie pojawiały się nawet przez godzinę! Ostatecznie okazało się, że można je odebrać samodzielnie w recepcji. Pierwszy raz spotkaliśmy się z tym, żeby ręczniki plażowe były w hotelu tak "racjonowane".
- System rezerwacji do restauracji à la carte. Obiekt ma 4 restauracje à la carte. Recepcja każe rezerwować miejsca przez aplikację mobilną (a jedynie w razie niepowodzenia prosić w recepcji). Niestety pierwszego dnia pobytu nie mogłem zarezerwować niczego w większości restauracji (i to na 10 dni pobytu!). W "Steak House" dostępne były jedynie terminy na dwa ostatnie dni wyjazdu, i to dopiero po 20:45 (zbyt późno dla rodziny z małym dzieckiem). Podobnie było z lunchami: w wielu miejscach nie dało się samodzielnie zarezerwować terminu, a gdy później przychodziłeś do restauracji, sala świeciła pustkami. Recepcja w końcu zarezerwowała dla mnie kilka terminów, ale nie rozumiem, po co sugerować rezerwacje przez aplikację, skoro to nie działa.

Don’t go if you’re greek, this place is for all inclusive obsessed brits that won’t branch out
Pros:

I love a different Mitsis Hotel a lot so I loved everything that reminds me of Mitsis brand in this hotel. Other than that the botanical gardens and that they don’t shoo away the cats were my favourite parts

Cons:

Most of the staff were miserable and rude they didn’t know I was Greek and I understood what they were saying they also were cussing a lot in front of customers.
The food was alright but I kept comparing it to the other Mitsis I love which is WAY better
Also to comment on the bars and creperie, gyros and pizza place they were all mediocre to really bad unfortunately

Υπέροχη εμπειρία
Pros:

Όλα ήταν άψογα από το δωμάτιο , το χώρο του ξενοδοχείου , το φαγητό και και το προσωπικό. Όλοι ήτανε πολύ εξυπηρετικοί και διαθέσιμη πάντα να βοηθήσουν !! το συστήνω ανεπιφύλακτα!!

Ein schönes hotel, super praktisch wenn man als Familie unterwegs ist.
Pros:

Schöne Hotelanlage, tolle Zimmer.
Großteil des Personals sehr freundlich! Super hilfsbereit (unser Baby wurde krank und die Damen an der Rezeption waren sehr hilfsbereit).
Es war sehr viel los, aber das hat sich im großen und ganzen gut verteilt.

Cons:

Zimmer etwas klein (mit Baby).
Lange Wartezeiten bei Essen/Trinken am Pool + Strand.
Essen in Restaurants gut, allerdings größtenteils bereits ausgebucht.
