Pros:

Nydelig rom! Spa avdeling med barnemassasje. Det var deilig å slippe høy musikk ved basseng. Bra underholdning på kveldene.

Cons:

Maten var ok, litt kjedelig og ganske standard. Var på ett hotell noen dager før som lagde nydelige smakfulle gryter og greske variasjoner til middag. Så sammenlignet med det ble dette under den standarden.

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen und waren rund um zufrieden:)
Pros:

Das Personal war immer extrem freundlich und bemüht, den Aufenthalt so schön wie möglich zu gestalten!
Das Abendprogramm war abwechslungsreich und unterhaltsam.
Das Buffet war super lecker!

Cons:

Leider reservieren sehr viele Leute mit Handtüchern die Liegen am Pool und kommen selbst erst sehr viel später, um diese zu nutzen

Gerne wieder!
Pros:

Schöner Ort, der sich nach Corona gut erholt hat. Uns gefällt die Lage und der kleine Hafen um die Ecke. Auch gute Restaurants in der näheren Umgebung.

Das Hotel gefällt uns seit Jahren und wir sind gerne wiedergekommen.

Late Check-Out war notwendig.

Cons:

Durch die salzige Luft ist die ein oder andere Sanierung notwendig, allerdings keinerlei Ekelfaktor. Eher übliche Renovierungen, die in den Räumen notwendig werden durch die starke Auslstung. Das Management hat uns mitgeteilt das man hier bereits für die Zukunft dran ist.

Frühstückszeiten könnten etwas ausgedehnter sein.

Pros:

Le personnel était super présent, aux petits soins. Superbe vue et emplacement top pour ensuite sortir marcher un peu dans Sissi. Calme et super bien insonorisé.

Cons:

Pas assez de place pour les transats autour de la piscine. Pannes de courant assez fréquentes, ce qui faisait que la clim avait du mal à se relancer.

Rilassante, forse anche troppo..
Pros:

Struttura accogliente, pulita, a due passi dal paesino di Sissi caratterizzato da negozietti e taverne.
Ottima la parte dedicata alla ristorazione, molto attento lo staff in ogni reparto.
Belle le piscine.

Cons:

Non è possibile in una struttura del genere avere ancora una vasca adattata a doccia..
Necessarie zanzariere vista la fastidiosa presenza di moscerini.

Delicious and tasty, sunny and salty
Pros:

It was very good in almost all aspects. This hotel has almost everything for their guests. Food was great, especially dinner. And their desserts😍 I think I returned home with more kilos than I’d left. Good location, not far from interesting spots and good beaches. But you need to rent a car if you want to sunbathe on the good sandy beach. Two pools with sea water. Hotel has very clean and beautiful territory. I like it and I hope to return one day.
They gave us a bottle of fine and some Cretan cookies as a compliment at the last day of our stay and it was really nice.

Cons:

As I mentioned previously this hotel has almost everything for their guests. But sometimes you need to ask/request something as rack for clothes to dry or iron. I think it would be more convenient to prepare a list of things that could be offered in the hotel and you just choose what you need. Because I have no clue as for the rack until one day I saw it near the other hotel room. There was one unpleasant incident in the restaurant in the evening because waiters started to reserve tables for some guests on purpose or for money. But as this hotel proposed buffet food it is not about reservation it’s about somebody is finished and other guests could use this table.
