Beautiful, well-maintained resort with a beach area and lots of pools. You will experience gorgeous sunsets, even while having dinner. The breakfast and restaurants were incredible and offered many different types of cuisines as well as Greek cuisine. The staff were super attentive and helpful.

Nice clean beach. Excellent for children. Not deep. But mostly waves in September, so you can just be at water but not to swim. Friendly staff ready to help you with all your questions. Excellent variety food. Good location near shops and restaurants. Cleaning every day. Changing of towels up to your requests.

The hotel is well located with a nice beach front bar. Each room from the Adults only hotel had its own spot at the beach with a bottle of water courtesy from the hotel. Breakfast had a good variety of food and the option of having a brunch at Elia restaurant was very nice.

We stayed in a two-bedroom villa with a sea view, two couples, for the second time. The service at the hotel is perfect, the staff is courteous and responds to every request with a smile and kindness. The villa is well-equipped, clean and simply perfect. The location of the hotel is truly dreamy, located on the mountain, with a simply stunning view, and is close to all the main places. Highly recommend staying at this hotel. We will definitely be back♥️

From the moment we arrived, everything was flawless. The hotel is a true haven of relaxation, with incredible attention to detail in every corner. You can really feel that everything has been thought through to make guests feel comfortable and at ease. It’s without doubt one of the best luxury hotels I have ever experienced; elegant, refined, and absolutely worth it. A special shout-out to Chrysa at reception, she was simply amazing! Friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, she made us feel so welcome and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. Her warm smile and helpfulness truly set the tone for the whole experience. If you’re looking for pure relaxation, top-notch service, and a place where every detail matters – this is the hotel to choose. Highly recommended!

We loved every minute of our stay. From the minute we walked in, we loved it. I believe it is the most beautiful reception I have ever seen - the ocean as a backdrop is just picture perfect. The lobby smelled amazing and we were welcomed in the most hospitable manner. The service was outstanding - it was more than the usual friendly and polite service, everyone made us feel welcome and well taken care of. They service we experienced was true hospitality with heart. The breakfast had the most amazing selection. The views all around the resort are incredible - starting from the lobby, to the room, to the pool, we loved that you could see the ocean from almost every angle. Pictures do not do the resort justice - it is so much more stunning in reality. Special thanks to: Elini, Polina, Lia, Aggelena, Xenia And the lovely lady from Bony Fish.
