Okay, so I read some reviews prior to going about the airport being too close and that photo of the deck chair in the shrubbery haha...but really the place is just wonderful. Yes the airport is within eye shot, and you can hear from 1-5 planes land and take off each day. If you're precious then this could be an issue, but it lasts for about 2 seconds, and what might sound like a pain, is in fact quite quirky. It did not bother me one bit and they weren't any planes at unsociable hours. The hotel was SPOTLESS. The cleaners were fantastic leaving our room immaculate each day. The pool is so clean you can drink it (I only know this due to my boyfriend dunking me under water). The staff are wonderful and accomodating. The only downfall is perhaps the lack of life around the hotel. There is a shop about a mile away and I enjoyed the walk, but it would have been nice to have it a bit closer. You do have to get cabs everywhere ranging from 5-10 Euro to Kamari and 12-15 to Fira (depends how they feel). However, the hotel lay on a cheaper minibus service 5 times a day which is a great help. In fairness I love a good moan, but I really have nothing negative to say about the hotel. The receptionists were fantastic, especially Andreas and the waiters are exceptional. It was predominantly couples over 35 there, which was perfect for me at 28 because I did not want a rowdy hotel. Lovely guests and a beautiful island. We were upgraded to a suit which was beautiful with a sea view. The pool at night is surrounded with candles and atmospheric music...if you're a couple seeking the ultimate romantic relaxation holiday...go here!!! Love love LOVE it and will definitely be going back.
