“
Really nice hotel - most guests were French. All inclusive good food and clean facilities. Excellent beach and pool.
Downsides - when we arrived the accommodation we had booked - bungalows - was not available. It took three days to get relocated from a hotel room in the main building. It required getting an appointment with the manager as we were constantly fobbed off (nicely) by the front desk.
The hotel employs an "Animation" team - something the French clients expect - to get you involved in the activities and beach games. Not for us and it became irritating to have to constantly say no thanks.
The big downside to the hotel is the proximity of the airport. This was not remarked on in any of the reviews we saw before booking. The planes are constant day and night - after the first week you sort of get used to it but it would ruin a short break. These planes are on their final approach with wheels down so the noise is very intrusive.
Nice place but would not go again.
“ Top Tip: Hire a car and travel to the South side of the island - much less developed and more of the old hippy Greece.
