Review of Akka Antedon hotel

This is a wonderful resort for families. The pool ...

This is a wonderful resort for families. The pool is enormous and clean, and one end has a very shallow area for toddlers. The beach is a bit rocky, but the water is fairly clear. There is a large pier that extends far out over the water. Lounge chairs are plentiful, but they are usually occupied soley by towels. The waterslides are awesome, rivaling a real water park. The hotel lobby is spectacular, and the two-room suite we had was spacious enough for our family of five. The hotel van that took us to and from the airport was first class, including a giant TV screen and a wet bar.

And it is all inclusive, with all-you-can-eat buffet style dining three times a day. We paid extra to enjoy a boat tour and parasailing from the south end of the beach (ask for Ali -- he treated us great).

I would give it five enthusiastic stars if they would make the entire resort smoke free. Until then, I can only give it four stars. But that's the only negative aspect that comes to mind.
