My stay at this hotel was quite pleasant overall! The rooms were more spacious than I expected, and everything felt cozy. The staff was incredibly friendly and professional, making the experience enjoyable. The location is great, within walking distance to Hersonissos, but I did wish the dining had a bit more variety. The facilities were nice, particularly the well-maintained pool area, but I did find the Wi-Fi to be an additional cost, which was a little frustrating.

The rooms were spacious and always kept clean, making for a comfortable experience. The service from the staff was exceptional; they always greeted us with friendly smiles and went the extra mile.

The hotel offers a spectacular stay, with friendly staff and beautiful surroundings, but the rooms fell short of my expectations for a five-star experience.

I had a lovely stay at this hotel, the rooms offered a fantastic sea view and were quite spacious, though they could use a few more basic amenities. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making my holiday even better, and the location was beautifully landscaped with greenery. However, the dining experience was a mixed bag; while the main buffet had a lot of options, it felt a bit like a canteen rather than a cozy restaurant. All in all, a great value for money with some minor areas for improvement.

The rooms are clean and comfortable, with fantastic views. The service is a standout, especially for families, but the dining options could use some improvement in variety.

The service was friendly and attentive, making sure I felt welcomed throughout my stay.
