From reading all the reviews about this hotel before travelling I was a bit apprehensive and worried about my stay. Our flight with Viking was awful and had an 11 hour delay (NEVER FLY WITH THEM!!) only to get to the hotel to find that out room had been cancelled. That was the first and main problem with the hotel- there were no holiday reps and as the hotel staff were Slovakian it was very frustrating when we needed advice!
The pool was stunning, relaxing and very quiet! The swim-in beach bar was very handy and make sure to make the most out of the ice-cream, fruit, pizza and other snacks through the day! The hotel is on the beach but sunbeds are 3.50 each so take a towel or a lilo if you don't want to pay this price!
There was entertainment on the Sunday night from a male keyboard player and singer who was very entertaining and dancers on a Thurs night. We were lucky to have a beach party at a neighbouring hotel which was great!
The food was a tad repetitive but was lovely and we found the lunch was usually better than dinner! The staff were lovely especially the manager who was extremely helpful!
If you need pounds changing go to the large hotel next door who have great rates!
I would recommend visiting Rhodes town but go at night as it is very hot during the day with its small cobbled streets. Be sure to visit the waterpark in Faliraki as it is definately worth 20 euro's - great day out!
I would recommend this hotel to a friend but it needs Greek workers, more entertainment and updated rooms as they were a bit dark and dated!
