nice holiday
welcome drinksroom champagnemanicured grounds
The staff welcomed guests with drinks upon arrival. There was champagne, wine, fruits, and sweets in the room. The swimming pool included water slides for children. I used the beach chairs and the beach bar. The grounds were well maintained and housekeeping was great.
i noticed a slight delay in drink service at times.

The room was cleaned to a high standard on a daily basis! The housekeeping staff were friendly, which i appreciated. The hotel provided fresh, large bottles of water daily. I found this detail thoughtful.

The staff met guests at the entrance and assisted with check-in on the terrace. I found the service to be of the highest level. Katerina at the front desk assisted with a rental car. She provided guidance toward unique beaches.

i enjoyed the breakfast buffet a lot. it featured fresh pastries and local cheeses every day. the main pool was large with a dedicated kids area. plenty of sun loungers were available at any time, so i never felt stressed.
the elevators was a little slow sometimes, it could be inconvenient during peak hours.
