What I liked: • Beautiful resort with stunning gardens, pools and beach. The atmosphere is relaxing and luxurious. • Exceptional service : friendly, professional and always helpful staff. • Lovely surprise with the heart decoration on the bed • Excellent housekeeping and very clean rooms. • Great food quality, with different dinner options every evening and an outstanding pastry selection. • Very convenient hotel app for check-in and activities. • Supermarket inside the hotel with reasonable prices. • Free and easy parking • Plenty of sunbeds available . • The hotel really feels like “A Place to Live” - you can easily spend a week or more enjoying the facilities, activities and restaurants. What could be improved: • Rooms are comfortable but feel a little outdated compared to a modern luxury resort. • Bathroom amenities are average, and the coffee machine could be easier to use. • Gym is quite basic and could have a wider variety of equipment. • Breakfast gets very crowded between 9:30–10:30, so arriving earlier is recommended. • Wi-Fi could be stronger in some areas of the resort. • Surprising that there is no public jacuzzi/whirlpool area for a resort of this level. Overall: A fantastic resort with outstanding service, beautiful surroundings and excellent food. we had a wonderful stay and would happily return.

Is a truly a hotel to live. Everything I experienced was exceptional and exceeded my expectations in every aspect. It is the best hotel I ever went. The location, the service, the room, the restaurant, the people (employees) who were there for everything I needed. The pool with salt water and with is unique design, the front beach with sunbed and umbrella in any places throughout the resort, the design pool that surrounds the hotel which gives a unique look to the resort, everything is outstanding . The hotel is a show in itself. You can choose which restaurant you want, each with different options and of course with great food. I highly recommend this place for an outstanding vacation, relaxation and good mood. I would like to mention our concierge Alyna Romanova. I would like to thanks her for being so kind and helpful. You made our vacation even more enjoyable and your personal touch was very appreciated by us. Thank you very much, Alina.

Our experience was nothing short of spectacular. I had one of the best massages of my life, I swear it was a spiritual experience of some kind. The food was incredible, staff, service, activities, everything. It is a very kid friendly, family oriented resort. I would say there were more families there than couples. This did not bother us at all and we quite enjoyed seeing all the happy families and babies.

We stayed at the resort with our family of five. First, we would like to highlight the hotel's amazing staff. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, efficient, and accommodating. Even during the morning rush, we received a table and our coffee consistently in less than five minutes, despite the hotel being at almost full capacity. Service at the pool was also attentive and flawless. We stayed in a villa with a private pool and gym, which was spacious enough to fit three single beds for our children into the second bedroom—making it an excellent choice for families with more than two children. While there are some slightly worn areas in the hotel, it is nothing beyond what I have seen globally in similarly priced hotels exposed to sea air and humidity for years. If you focus on the wonderful Greek atmosphere the rooms and the hotel create, then you won't give those minor details a second thought. The main beach features very fine sand, and just a few meters away, there are submerged rocks where you can spot fish while snorkeling. The pool is Olympic-sized, making it perfect for maintaining your swim training during vacation. It can get busy during the day, but the very kind lifeguard keeps everything under control so that everyone can enjoy it. Finding free deck chairs was never an issue, as the staff made them available when guests didn’t use them for an extended period of time, hence also preventing the “smart” guests from reserving them early in the morning—a significant advantage for this hotel. This policy is enforced with a sensible, respectful, common-sense approach. The premises are as beautiful as in the pictures. There’s an outdoor gym with bikes, TRX-es, dumbbells, kettlebells and two squat racks with barbells, great for your Hyrox or Crossfit training. Overall, we would highly recommend staying at the Amirandes to enjoy a high-quality, quiet, and carefree vacation. As the receptionist told me when we checked in: “You are here now, you don’t need to worry about anything anymore.” She was true to her word.

We loved this hotel! It is amazing. It gave us a “wow” experience. The views from the lobby and rooms are breathtaking. We loved the beautiful infrastructure, several restaurants, infinity pool, buffet, live music m, romantic lounges, and organized activities for families. We were also thrilled to find such a kid friendly hotel. It’s a rare combination. The staff also goes out of its way to help satisfy your every need. Live music at night in the outdoor bar was also a welcome treat! We recommend this hotel highly. The staff surpasses expectations and aims to please. The check in process could be more streamlined as it took us 1 hour and 15 minutes to get into the room. All else was spectacular.
