After months of extensive research and careful consideration, we ultimately selected this hotel as the venue for my and my husband's wedding. I cannot express the happiness I feel as a result of that decision. Our wedding turned out to be a realization of all our dreams, with every single aspect being absolutely perfect. We secured this location a year in advance of our event, and the hotel maintained constant communication with us throughout the entire year to ensure that every detail was meticulously planned. We had everything we had ever envisioned, from the grand entrance on a jetski to our departure on a boat, the talented saxophonist, the top-notch DJ, and even a skilled face paint artist. The decorations were nothing short of incredible, and the hotel's team brought my vision to life based on the pictures I provided. Our guests were delighted with the hotel, and the rooms were fantastic, not to mention the exceptional food and top-tier hospitality. I want to give a special shout-out to Maria-Christina, who truly deserves recognition (perhaps even a promotion). It's been a long time since I've encountered such a dedicated, professional, and genuinely exceptional worker. The hotel should consider itself very fortunate to have you on their team. For anyone considering a destination wedding, I highly recommend contacting this hotel. They can share pictures from previous weddings to help you visualize your own dream celebration (you might even spot my pictures among them!). It was truly an amazing experience in every way, and I give it a five-star rating across the board.

“Lovely hotel”

Spectacular views of the peninsula made this hotel special. I enjoyed the food, there was plenty of choice but a bit limited if you are vegetarian. The variety of salads was great, The staff were pleasant and helpful. Pool sunbeds around the main pool were in short supply, the hotel could easily have put some more around this area. Also the main pool is quite deep all the way across it there is no real shallow end. There are no shops or bars close by so in that respect the hotel is quite isolated. We paid 600Euros for day trip to Santorini which looking back on it seems extortionate. On our last day the we had to check out of our room but the hotel did kindly give us another room to shower in before our flight, The entertainment is predominantly French but we didn't mind. Overall the hotel is lovely.

“Beautiful resort, beautiful location”

This resort is beautiful! When we first arrived, we were amazed at the beauty and the views.

This resort is beautiful! When we first arrived, we were amazed at the beauty and the views. We stayed down near the saltwater pool, which was probably better than near near the main pool because of the noise from the pool and restaurant. The staff was helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. The pool facilities were nice and there were plenty of chairs near the salt water pool and down by the a la carte restaurant where you could jump in the sea. We spent a day a the public beach next door, which had restaurants and bars and stores and you could rent chaise lounges for the day for 10 euros per pair. It was lovely. The beach at the resort was more crowded and the food options were more limited and expensive. We paid for the all inclusive and the food was fine. It wasn’t outstanding and I could see getting sick of it if we were there all week. They do not label things, and so our food allergies made trying things problematic. It’s not hard to label the food, even without allergies you just want to know what you’re eating. The main problem we encountered that would prevent our return is that you cannot flush toilet paper. This appears to be the case all over the island but for four people sharing a bathroom, this gets gross pretty quickly. We were not bothered that the activities were in French. We anticipated that they would not be in English, since we weren’t in an English-speaking country. We were there to relax, not play or party. We were probably the only Americans there, but that was fine by us.

“This is a French speaking resort! Not advertised properly.”

I’m a single mom with 2 teenagers that stayed at this resort. It was not advertised anywhere as a French speaking resort. Some of the staff speak English, but not many.

I’m a single mom with 2 teenagers that stayed at this resort. It was not advertised anywhere as a French speaking resort. Some of the staff speak English, but not many. All social activities/shows are in French. The entire time we were at the resort we only met 2 families that spoke English. The buffet did not have a lot of selection and some of the items were stale. You clear your own plates when finished eating and get your own cutlery. Self serve your own drinks. No servers around the pool. The 1 restaurant we are at included in the all inclusive package was terrible. I ended up sitting for 30-40 minutes waiting for our bowls to be cleared after dessert so I could sign for the wine that was not included. If you go down to the platform to jump in the water and lounge on the sun, this is extra, even a pop for the kids. I wished I had picked a different resort by the end of our first day. The only amazing part of our stay were the views.
