Also, the swimming pool is huge with marvelous views and sunsets.The big playgrounds are perfect for children. Our room was big, very clean, well equipped for cooking and comfortable.... More

We booked this hotel as we stayed in a villa nearby a few years ago and knew that the location of the hotel is very special, however, the place needs serious updating.Very basic kitchen, one has to plug out one appliance to plug in another (hotplates, kettle, microwave..),, there were one pan and one pot to use so you basically...

Very quiet and relaxing holiday. The apartments are located right next to the sea/beach with nice views from the balconies. The complex itself is well maintained with pleasant 'gardens' and colourful paintwork. The pool area and pool water were very clean. The studio was very basic but adequate considering the time spent inside and it was cleaned every day. Towels... More

I paid 35€ per room and what I get was more than I expected for this money. Basic furniture, but a very large room. The kitchen is very basic too (our room was for 3 people and we had only 3 glasses, 3 forks,.. very basic but enough to cook). Every apartment has its own view of the garden, the... More

I am actually reluctant to write about this hotel for fear too many people find out about it! I will return... First of all, if you are seeking 5-star marble entrance lobbies and watered down drinks at 'All Inclusives', with lengthy buffet queues and barely-warm food then this is not for you. If you like animation and discos and non... More

It was a wonderful holiday! Thank you Maria and Apostolos Lagonikakis! We had a peaceful holiday in their own studio apartment. There was a windy nights, and stormed the sea. It was part of the atmosphere. We got along well with vegetarian Zorbaksessa because Maria did food by request. Mika & Mirka
