Indulgent, peaceful seaside retreat.
Pros:

Great room: front sea view, rear balcony over palm trees. Comfortable, spacious, loved the slightly odd bathroom design. It felt comfortable and spacious enough to share with a friend. The towels were thick and comfy; cleaning service was prompt and helpful; coffee machine, water, bottle opener -- all the essentials. Really loved being between the sound of the sea and the breeze rustling the palm trees. Had a beautiful seaside run one morning. Wish I could have stayed longer.

Cons:

The strong fabric freshener sprayed on the cushions. My friend and I are both hypersensitive to scents. It was enough to make me feel slightly ill. We wound up having to pile all the cushions up in the farthest corner of the room and open the window and balcony door.

Pros:

Dalga sesleriyle uyumayı seviyorsanız aradığınız otel burası. Yunanistan'da kaldığım en iyi otellerden biri. Küçük atıştırmalık ikramlar, temizlik ve balkon hepsi çok iyiydi. Otoparkının olması büyük konfor. Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim.

Excellent choice
Pros:

We stayed for only one night, but I wish it had been longer (perhaps in the future), as the place was very clean, well-maintained, and new, with a comfortable bed and an excellently appointed bathroom. The reception staff (Christina) provided all the necessary instructions very clearly and courteously.

Cons:

This isn't a complaint, but I happened to be there on a very rainy day; the power went out a few times (though there was backup lighting), and quite a bit of water accumulated on the terrace (apartment 4).

Schönes Hotel
Pros:

Das Zimmer war groß, sauber und geräumig. Das Bad sehr modern und chic.

Cons:

Leider war der Strad vor dem Hotel nicht nutzbar. Der Pool nebenan darf erst ab 16 Jahren genutzt werden, dass war ein Manko für unseren 12 jährigen Enkel.
