Clean, good quality, service minded
Very nice, big and clean hotel. Wonderful staff and very service-minded. 1 week is enough, although very nice hotel, I was glad I could leave it again and see something different. To be honest, that’s the same experience I have with most all-inclusive. The all-inclusive menu could be a little bit more exciting, and for some reason, the juices are way too strong (need 4 times as much water, but they checked it, and it should be ok, according to Greece standards). Coffee is just boring. Couple of things that could be improved: keep the “children” swimming pools open a bit longer, accidents do happen in children pools - clean it straight away, too long lines for drinks and ice-cream.

Great facilities, the kids loved it. Only minor issue with the kids club, could use some more engaged staff.

The hotel was very clean with many pools and water parks for all the ages. It was near the beach and in the village. Nice food and all the day and nice staff. Some rooms are old and need renovated.
