“This hotel has a scam going on......”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Like one of the reviewers before me, I too was taken to another hotel up the road. A "5 star" hotel they said, that would be much better. Not next to the ocean but bigger and more comfortable. Hah! That hotel was nice but it smelled of cheap perfume all over the place. So disgusting. I complained about the smell. I was told to open my balcony door......It did not work! What a hassle to move to this hotel that we actually had paid for the next day in the middle of the day when that room was ready. My daughter and I were not the only ones that experienced this treatment. There were several others too. Approximately 4 families were going through this same hassle when we arrived. What they do is overbook this hotel so that they can fill up their other hotel. It seems to be working because when I went there it was in September of 2009. I had read on TripAdvisor that they had done this to others prior to booking. I thought maybe it was just a mistake........NOPE! Business as usual.

I will say that this hotel was convenient and clean once we were able to actually get into the room. We had an ocean view with a full moon. Very beautiful. The people watching at the beaches were great fun and the drinks a bit pricey. I still consider it a horrible business practice and advise you to take caution when/if booking here.

Room Tip: Try to get an ocean view........and try to get them to not send you to their other hotel up the road...

“GREAT LOCATION”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 November 2011

person found this review helpful

There were 4 of us girls aged in our 50's and 20's and we loved this loaction. The rooms are clean and large but not anything fancy. You do have to get the shuttle into town but that really is no problem as it comes regularly and only takes about 10 mins.Being right on the beachfront was fantastic and all of the retsaurants along the beach were great. We tried 4 of them. A couple of them had a "Zorba" night which was a lot of fun. The buffet breakfasts were also very good and the breakfast room/restaurant is facing onto the beach. We also did a little beach cruise from the jetty outside the hotel - it was excellent. Get the boat to stop at Kalifartis Beach for a lunch stop - absolutely beautiful surroundings, staff and amazing food.

“Great Honeymoon!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

Husband and I stayed here June of 2006 for 2 nights, had a great time. We were given a wrong room and after we told the front desk, they upgraded us to ocean view in suite pool. Awesome service, great beach and all the restaurants were on the beach, so romantic. Even their hotel views were breath taking, We really had a fantastic time.

“What a glorious position!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 November 2011

The Petinos Beach Hotel (not to be confused with the Petinos Hotel) is situated right on Platsis Gialos Beach, the best beach and crystal-clear water we saw on the island. The hotel rooms are large and well fitted-out in traditional Greek style. A restaurant is attached to the hotel and overlooks the bay. We had most lunches there - it's reasonably priced. The buffet breakfast was also great, and caters for all tastes. The hotel is well placed, in that it's right next to the restaurant and shopping strip, and a few metres to the bus stop to get the bus into Mykonos town. We spent a lot of time just sitting around the pool - a very relaxing place. The staff were also friendly and helpful. We'd definitely stay there again, and have no hesitation in recommending it.

“A very short stay, but I wanty to go back”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 October 2011

Even though I only spent a day here I liked the hotel. It's on the beach, it has a pool and there are many restaurants wiythin walking distance.
The busy season is during the summer and so it was quiet in October.
The room had a balcony that overlooked the beach.
Staff was freindly and helpful.
The only odd part was that the maid entered my room while I was sleeping, the door was dead bolted, and took a stool that was in front of the mirror. I woke up when the door opened and the maid just said shhhhhh. Not sure what that was about????

Room Tip: Go during the off season
