We had a wonderful stay at the hotel and were very satisfied with our holiday. Everything was great — the food was delicious, the hotel grounds were beautiful and well maintained, and our room was cleaned every day. The hotel also has its own private beach, which was a big plus. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay and would be happy to come back again!

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the entire hotel team for a wonderful vacation. Everything was excellent, and we have absolutely no complaints. The cleanliness was impeccable, the service was outstanding, and the food was delicious. The beach was magnificent, and Room 216 was excellent. Housekeeping was provided daily, and the variety of food was impressive—everyone could find something to suit their taste. The drinks were of high quality, and we especially enjoyed the coffee at the beach café. The entertainment program, evening concerts, and sports activities were all organized at a very high standard. The hotel staff work together as a truly professional and well-coordinated team. Everyone was always willing to answer our questions and provide assistance, and the level of service was exceptional. A special thank you to Konstantiana. She has a truly kind heart ❤️ and warmly welcomed us upon arrival and saw us off at departure. Thank you for providing us with such a wonderful holiday. We will definitely return again.

This was the best vacation we have ever had. The rooms were clean, the food was excellent, and the view was spectacular. We also appreciated the special gesture from the hotel management for our son’s birthday. They also have shows each night. Totally recommend it!

OK, just back from a week there. Really good. It's out of the way, with the hotel facing a green lawn and then a beach, then a small rocky island in the sea. Lots of sun-chairs to pull and put as you like. Food and drink, as it's all inclusive. Fine dining it's not, it's mostly buffet but perfectly good and lots of choice (there is a restaurant , didn't try). Lots of different stuff, looked pretty good. Breakfasts are decent especially. Staff are awesome, very friendly, great welcome, I pitched up late, and they'd had food sent to my room, as it was very late. They also had midnight snacks in the bar, so I managed a beer and some sandwiches before conking out. Rooms are pretty functional, but clean. wifi is a bit dodge in my room, but works very well in the main building and on the grounds. This trip was in school time, so not much children. Good option for a bit of peace.
