We liked the hotel it had limited space as a whole and although there was parking it was a challenge to get in and out. Overall crowded and small hotel. Very clean but the pools were full of people with no space between areas felt very small as a whole. Would love something a bit more private next time

Lovely stay but not for the beach!
This is a fabulous property in terms of their amenities and staff. The rooms are modern, very clean and super comfortable (bed, linens, etc.). The staff is incredible, especially Maria from the front desk--who made so many arrangements for us--and always had a smile on her face. Our only disappointment, which is not the hotel's fault, is that the beach close by is not the greatest. We ended up driving to Kalamaki beach every day (30 minutes away). And while it's a matter of personal taste, the town of Tsilivi (where the property is located) is overcrowded and full of average or less restaurants. The only one we found more than worthy of eating at was "Halfway House," which was fantastic.

Fantastic stay. We received an upgraded room upon arrival which was a really great start to our trip. The private pool at our room was secluded and lovely. The rooms are modern and have everything you needed. The gym was not the biggest but had everything you would need to train. The pools are all very nice and very clean and the food in the restaurant and at breakfast was absolutely fantastic everytime we ate there. We would definitely recommend this place

Excellent hotel, probably the best on the island all round. We chose this hotel over others primarily because of location (close to food, beach and a port), and, among others of its class, this property looked the most modern with a clean bathroom. The photos honestly don’t do the hotel justice in terms of looks and comfort. There were two great swimming pools. We had a private pool too. We saw the hotel being cleaned thoroughly daily, from the pool to mopping the stone floors outdoors. Staff are amazing and so is the buffet breakfast every morning.

This property felt like a dream. The decor is chic without being overly modern. There is a perfect balance to the decor with an abundance of beautiful plants everywhere. The location is excellent - walking distance to the sea and close to the strip of restaurants, cafes, bars, mini golf, arcade, shops, grocery stores - everything you need. The staff is passionate about what they do and will do anything you need to help you. We went to town for dinner each night so didn’t have an opportunity to eat at the rooftop restaurant but the food at the sushi restaurant and pool restaurant were excellent. Great options for all - I am a vegetarian so always felt like I had options - even at breakfast. There is a beautiful vegetable garden on site and many herb bushes used for the food and drinks. The pool and poolside vibe was great for all and we always felt comfortable with our young kids playing and splashing sun bathers from time to time! No one seemed to mind. There are plenty of pool loungers and we always found a spot no matter what time we came down. The entire property was impeccably clean. The bedroom setup was the best we have yet experienced for a family of 4. Both of our boys had their own sofa beds in what felt like a separate room (without a wall) and a balcony and we had our own balcony also. The spa was excellent- a must visit for an extra touch of pampering! All in all - my family and I had the best vacation here and I would recommend it to anyone. A true gem!

Fabulous hotel with excellent level of customer service. We went as 2 family of 4 ( teenagers and a 3 year old in the group) and the hotel was a great place to stay with kids pool and adult pool. Location was walking distance to lots of beaches and shops. We had the garden pool room which was a lot more money than the average room and was nice but perhaps we wouldn’t do that option again and choose a normal family suite as the pool room was a little on the small side for 4 people and Wardrobe space was tight. But that was the only thing we have to stay otherwise we really liked the hotel.
