  : Very comfy beds. Great bathrooms and massive warm showers. Lovely staff throughout. Plenty of choice at breakfast and everything fresh and tasty. Good Wifi. Spotless rooms and communal areas, all cleaned daily by lovely, caring staff. Nice quiet location near Nikiana, which is a really nice little village for a family trip, with good shops, restaurants (including a great Gyros place!) and small, quiet beaches. No problem getting towels and sun loungers, albeit we only tended to use the pool later in the day.
  : Pool/bar areas sterile (same music on repeat all day and shuts at 7pm). 'Pool View' rooms don't actually have any view of the pool from the patio (and only a partial view from upstairs), so you can't sit there whilst your kids swim because you can't see them. Breakfast delivery lorry arrives very early and very loudly every morning so you will have a daily 6.30am wake-up call if you are anywhere near the car park.

Pleasant
Traveller Type: Business Traveler
  : The bellboys were friendly. The food was good
  : My room needed a refurbishment and was very small. The private plunge pool at the room had no barrier between myself and the neighbours so not private at all. The bathrooms were barely large enough for one person with absolutely no counter space to put anything Gym, spa and yoga shala are shabby and a cheap afterthought. With some effort and attention to the above this place could be potentially be very nice and my rating would have been more generous.

  : Very friendly and helpful staff, great view from room, comfortable bed, delicious food in the restaurant. Guest services director talking to guests around the pool to get feedback. Bus stop a few minutes walk with air conditioned buses to Nydri (taxis were sometimes hard to come by in August). 10 minutes walk to water sports hire and small port with several restaurants.
  : The hotel was full in August and felt slightly over capacity - it was sometimes hard to find sunbeds by the pool (they need to stop the 100 Euros minimum spend for cabanas) and often hard to find a table for 5 at breakfast. The management seemed responsive though so these issues are likely to be sorted out for next year. More storage in bedrooms (e.g. bedside tables with storage) and sunbeds in the garden area of all the suites would be good.
