Nekünk tetszett , most voltunk másodszor itt
Pros:

A strand közelsége, felszereltsége.
A stradbár étel kínálata és annak minősége kiváló .
A kis öböl rész még szeles időben is alkalmas fürdőzésre.

Cons:

Mi már ismertük a helyet , így tudtuk lépcsőn kell felvinni a bőröndöket a Recepcióhoz. Kis kerülővel ez a cipekedés csökkenhető, de kell hozzá információ vagy helyismeret.

overall disappointing, especially in the restaurant.
Pros:

The rooms were faultless, clean with excellent facilities.

The beach location was great with adequate sunbeds and parasols.

Cons:

The hotel lacked atmosphere. The few staff were friendly but there seemed to be no overall management.
Breakfast was average, dinner was very disappointing so we went out to eat after two days.
In the hotel there were no brochures , leaflets, maps or even a bus timetable to inspire guests to go on trips such as the boat to Gramvousa. No information provided in our room even about the hotel.

Very please with hospitality and service, cosy & perfectly clean room, despite the sandy beach.
Pros:

Breakfast is almost superb, never run out of anything as they really take care even of fresh omelettes every half hour. Planty of croissants and other sweeties.
All the stuff is incredibly nice and helpful, always with a smile what makes your day really Sunny.

Cons:

Missed fresh juice at breakfast

Charmant petit hotel
Pros:

Deuxième séjour dans cet hotel que j'affectionne particulièrement.
Le personnel est adorable et très serviable.
Jolie chambre, excellente literie, balcon avec vue.
Calme hors saison malgré que l'hotel semblait complet.
Petit déjeuner buffet simple, diverses sortes de pain et bon café.
J'y reviendrai avec grand plaisir !

Cons:

Un plateau bouilloire dans la chambre serait top !

Almost idyllic!
Pros:

The upgraded room we had was great - faced the sea, and very well designed. Comfortable bed. Loved the few steps to the beautiful beach and free sunbeds.
Staff were very friendly and quick to help.

Cons:

The shower cubicle leaked over the floor.
We decided to stay another night and had to change rooms. The second room was perfectly acceptable, but being on the other side looked out on another hotel with only a glimpse of sea.
We'd have liked to be able to make a hot drink in our room, or at least get one somewhere in the hotel outside of mealtimes.
