“Nothing but love for this place”

“A real 5* experience at a wonderful location”

Absolutely fantastic experience at this incredible hotel. Everything about this place is top class. I cannot speak highly enough about it. In particular the staff provided the most amazing service, it was spotlessly clean all the time, and the facilities were all incredible

“Fantastic Hotel”

Amazing hotel, everything you could wish for from a five star hotel. Spotless and the staff were fantastic and very professional. My only criticism is that after a 7 hour journey we sat waiting for someone to come and check us in and a waitress bought us a bottle of water. It wasn't until we paid t… more

Amazing hotel, everything you could wish for from a five star hotel. Spotless and the staff were fantastic and very professional. My only criticism is that after a 7 hour journey we sat waiting for someone to come and check us in and a waitress bought us a bottle of water. It wasn't until we paid the room bill on departure that we realized we had been charged €5 for it. To me that should have been complimentary and also the do not disturb signs fall off the handles. Perhaps a sliding sign on the door might be a better option.Other than this it was a lovely place to stay.

Hotel is modern. Refurbished. Beautiful setting. Lots of grounds. Gardens so pretty. Herbs and fruit trees. Lots of seating areas dotted around and the pool is spectacular. Wow factor. We spent most of our time by the sea on the rocky terraces. Gorgeous. Order drinks through the app and staff find you wherever you are sat. Staff throughout very well trained polite and efficient. Good service. That’s really why I wanted to write this review as they deserve praise. Our room was infinity blue 5th floor and we had a stunning view of the sea and the sun rising every morning. Room good as refurbished. See other peoples comments below. Minor gripes. High tech to control lights aircon etc but still a paper tag to ask not to be disturbed which just falls off. Did the free yoga classes morning and some evenings. More stretching and breathing really but appreciated they were available. Breakfast excellent. I wanted to give hotel 5 stars but some negatives. Hotel is quite far from anything. Walk to a small supermarket and cafe 1/2 mile. Not much else that close. Favourite restaurant almost first one you come to kri kri 15/20 mins. Walk to centre Agios Nicholas 30 mins. Yes taxi cheap €8 but be aware when picking hotel. The quid pro quo is that the setting is special. A shuttle bus would be a great addition. The problem for us was that the food and drink in the hotel was very expensive and not that good. I hope the food and drinks manager reads this review and gets their act together. We favoured the restaurant by the beach and had some pleasant meals even though we knew we were being ripped off. It is a 5*hotel and service setting etc was lovely. But first day lunch by the pool pretty terrible and equally expensive. Ditto the sandwich ordered by the beach bar. €16 for a sandwich on its own on a plate. €10 glass of wine. Head to a local restaurant and dine out beautifully with the locals for a fraction of the cost. We may return to the hotel but that was our biggest disappointment.
