“What a wonderful place. Layout of the hotel and position on the beach can not be beaten. Absolutely fantastic. The staff is the heart of the service, and everyone were pleasant and welcoming, also when busy. Spotless service and kind care. The restaurant menu (Kima) is probably one of the best in town, on par with petra bay for most dishes. I simply cannot recommend this place enough.
There is of course beach service, bringing you drinks and snacks to your beach chairs, and maybe there are too many loungers for just one very busy man during peak hours. Our room (505) was pleasant and with a wonderful balcony facing the sea of course, cleaning and towel changes absolutely spotless, perfect for us. Would recommend to anyone, anytime. And yes, they also have cute Cretan Cats in the bushes here and there, tops it all off. Look out for - it is build on a slope to the sea, so you may have a few stairs to climb, all part of the fun.”

“Location is just best. Right by the sea. Was afraid when checked booking that it has only 2 stars, but it just so unjustified. The hotel has everything and is less than a minute from the sea. Rooms a nice with the sea view. The territory is gorgeous and plants are very nice ( grapes, limes, palms). Stuff is very friendly. Took breakfasts from the hotel, very nice selection from the menu. So many locals by the beach. True Greek atmosphere. I just loved our vacation, couldn’t expect it better than this.”

“One of my best vacations ever! The hospitality of the greek in all it's glory. The hotel in a magical spot on the shore of the medeteranian. The resturant serving big hearted portions of traditional, like the greeks make at home, and modern fresh food. The bar has a big selection of drinks, but don't forget to try the local raki. And if you are lucky you'll join in the lines of greek dancing at one of the greek party nights. What else, if you rent a car you will find many magical beaches close by, at times all for you. All and all I would give more stars if I could.”
