The hotel is not bad, but in my opinion it lacks five stars a bit;).
First: the beach
Sandy beach with beautiful blue water and a view of the cliffs. However, due to these advantages, 3/4 of the hotel spends their time there. I recommend going to the beaches on the left side of the hotel, definitely better and quieter. There is also something for divers, just swim a little away from the beach and we have a lot of fish (watch out for sea urchins, there are plenty of them). On the right side there is a turtle cove, I think the view is worth your attention. There is a bit of slow service in the bar so there can be problems standing in line at times, however this is not a significant problem.
Second: Restaurant
The food was tasty, quite a lot of choice, but if you are going away for more than 9 days, you may notice that it becomes monotonous and repetitive. The biggest problem is the service. In general, everyone was rather polite, but of course, the Germans and Russians had "priority" in them. But it is already a classic abroad. However, far too few of them were working. There was one Pole working at the reception who told me that when there were about 100 people in April, the same number was working, even when it was 1200. You could say that the manager allowed himself to save money on service.
Third: Accommodation
If you get a room at the reception, there are 2 steps everywhere, I do not know what the situation looks like in the buildings behind the reception, but I think that a bit needs to be approached. The rooms are big. air-conditioned, they have their own style, however, sometimes there were situations like the lamp did not work, which I waited for a week for despite the fact that I was at the reception three times with this matter.
Fourth: Service and Animation
As for the service, I have almost no complaints. Nice, however, is a bit slow, but the Greeks perceive time differently. When it comes to animations, aerobics are organized every day by the sea, as well as a few other attractions. Unfortunately, the amphitheater is a downside, although there is a bar there, and the performances are interesting, it is about 500 meters from the hotel, and there is a dedicated bus there, and the performances are on Mondays and Fridays.
Fifth: Neighborhood
There is actually nothing to write about here. Nothing interesting, the hotel is in the middle of a forest, you can drive 5 km to a small town, but you won't find anything interesting there.
I think if someone is going to sunbathe there, the hotel is definitely for him. The rest, however, call for a slight improvement.
