"As in many other places, the "race for a place by the pool"."

"The hotel was okay, but the cleanliness was really disappointing. Even on the first day when we arrived, the bed and blanket were dirty, and the towels had stains on them. Honestly, the only good thing was the view from the balcony — it was beautiful. But everything else was just average, and in my opinion, I wouldn’t come back there again."

"We stayed at the resort for 10 days and overall had a good stay — but it’s not a 5-star resort. The place feels quite run-down, especially the rooms, which haven’t been renovated in many years. Pros: - Very friendly and helpful staff. - Beautiful and well-maintained surroundings. - We were quickly offered a new room when we asked. Highly recommend choosing one with a sea view — others can have a very dull view. - There’s a cozy little backyard area behind Rodius where you can enjoy a drink in the evening. Sadly, it’s often empty since it’s far from the main restaurant. - For the price per night, comparing to many other resort, it is priceworthy. Cons: - The lifeguards are overly strict. I made a small dive in the pool and was immediately whistled at — very uncomfortable. I wasn’t the only one who noticed; several guests felt the same. - The rooms and parts of the hotel feel outdated and in need of renovation. - Half board only includes the main buffet restaurant. Although the buffet is pretty good for being a buffet. Tips: - Rent a car if you want to explore! Avoid Hersonissos — we recommend Piskopiano instead. If you’re traveling with kids, visit Acqua Water Park (5 mins away). For a great beach nearby, go to Potamos. Summary: A good stay overall, but the standard doesn’t match what you’d expect from a 5-star resort. "

"Absolutely one of the best places I have stayed in. Summary of my personal views. + Fresh breakfast with nice morning and sea views. + I appreciated the parking space and possibilities to park there. + Fantastic views from the hotel regardless where you are located. + Amanda gave us fantastic recommendations what to do around the hotel and places worth visiting. Absolutely recommend Marathi and Seitan beach, including Stravos beach, great mix of restaurants after hanging on the beach. -Outstanding SPA services, thanks to the team. + Good gym facility - Room service needs some improvement as I was told I can’t order to food to my room. - if you want to eat after 22:00 no food is available which is bit confusing because we landed very late. You have to order outside of the hotel which we did not knew. - it is bite annoying that you can’t take charges on the room number. You have to pay onsite all the times. I would preferred to pay on the room and pay afterward. "
