This was my second stay in Kontes Beach Hotel.The position is terriffic-it would be very hard to beat as it is right on the beach front just seperated from the sands by a narrow promenade.
When I was there last year,I was practically invisible>I was given a side room,with a seaview if you craned your neck,I had to fetch my own drinks at breakfast although couples and larger tables had waiter service and there was no real effort by the staff to be friendly.
This time I was travelling with a friend and e-mailed ahead asking for a front-facing room.(I had done this on previous stay)We were given a front facing room and it had amazing views.The staff all appeared to be the same except for the receptionist.She was really nice and has been replaced by two equally as nice sisters,one of whom barely speaks English.
The staff seemed to concentrate on the same groups of people all the time.I.e. a big fuss being made every time they appeared but barely a grunt out of them for anyone else.
The rooms were not very clean with the linen and towels only changed once instead of twice and that was only after we asked.A waiter took our order for a breakfast drink.
Considering everything I do not think I would stay there again or,in fact,go back to that resort.
