We had all the amenities, the territory is green and directly goes to the sea
Separately, I would like to note the hotel restaurant - I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of dishes - there were seafood, fruits, and ice cream. Every day something new and very tasty. We only had breakfast and dinner, but that was enough.
The animation for children is very good, but for adults I would like to organize evenings too.
In general, the rest was pleasant, I recommend this hotel!
Who cares to see the territory, what it looks like near the hotel, what beautiful places there are and how to visit all the main attractions of Greece by public transport on your own, see my video review!
It was built in the Athos style, as they say, in principle it looks like a monastery.
Representatives of Mouzenidis met us at the reception and helped with the check-in, they told us everything about the hotel and showed us. Our room was 122 with a sea view.
Nice cozy room with a balcony. Spacious and light. Repair and the interior itself is not the first freshness. Clean, room cleaning daily.
Meals - breakfast and dinner, a big plus was that you can change dinner for lunch. The food was pretty good. A good choice of main dishes for dinner: meat, chicken, fish, seafood, potatoes, pasta, rice, legumes, various salads, fresh vegetables, fruits, sweet table. Live music sometimes played in the restaurant in the evenings.
The territory of the hotel itself is very well-groomed, the pool is large and clean, the smell of bleach is not pungent. The sun loungers by the pool were free.
The beach is gorgeous, sandy, and the water in the sea is so clean that at a depth you could see which stones lie at the bottom. In the morning and in the evening lay on the beach, in the afternoon it is very hot. Sun loungers on the beach are paid, but you can also lie on a towel. Evening animation at the hotel was present, the schedule at the restaurant.
In general, the holiday went well, I definitely recommend the hotel.
The room was good, on the 6th floor with a beautiful view of the sea.
I want to mark the territory of the hotel. Large green area, with a huge number of trees, bushes, flowers and lawns. There is a large Olympic-sized pool, a children's pool with fountains and slides. Near the adult pool there is a snack bar where you can buy soft drinks and snacks.
Since we are with a child, it was important for us to have children's animation in the hotel. Animation program Grekoleto, professional animators work with children, play, triple various games. In the evening there was a mini disco in the amphitheater. The child was very pleased with the animation.
The food in the restaurant is decent, there is always an abundance of various dishes: appetizers, salads, fruits, desserts, ice cream, and always 1 kind of soup.
The beach in our hotel is not very good, especially for children, so we swam mainly on the beach of the Pallini hotel, with a surcharge for sunbeds and umbrellas (9 euros 2 sunbeds + 1 umbrella).
Friendly guys work at the reception, they will always help and tell you which of them always speaks Russian. In the restaurant, the waiters work smoothly and quickly, the service is good. The rooms are always clean, cleaned every day.
Not far from our hotel there are 2 nearest villages - Kallithea and Afitos. We didn’t like Kallithea, there wasn’t much to do there. And in Afytos there is even nothing. Beautiful narrow streets, small houses, a huge number of Greek taverns where they cook delicious seafood. I recommend that those who come to rest in this region visit the Tu Kima tavern, delicious homemade Greek cuisine, huge portions of dishes could not but please us.
In general, we were most satisfied with the rest, especially our son liked the rest. Many thanks to the company Muzinidis and the company's employees for their proper organization of the holiday. I will recommend the hotel to guests with children, for a family holiday, the hotel is completely suitable for you.
On the territory there is a Grecoleto children's club, the child often went there, the animators are good, they easily find a common language with children. There is also a playground for children (slides, climbing walls, houses, rope nets, etc. ), a children's pool with small water slides. In the evening every day on the territory of Pallini there was a disco for children and a small animation program.
We took the half board system (breakfast and dinner). The food here is very good, a decent selection of any dishes, be it salads, side dishes, meat dishes, desserts, there are themed cuisines. Sometimes they changed dinner for lunch and went to eat in the evening in a good seafood tavern. Or at the bottom of the hotel there is an Italian restaurant, they also cook very tasty food (the pasta there is gorgeous, better than in a restaurant in Italy).
The pool itself is large, there were always enough sun loungers for everyone.
The sea is very clean, transparent, the sand is also snow-white, we often spent time at sea. Sunbeds are paid.
We went on an excursion to Aridea and Edessa, we decided to take a Relax program for ourselves. We saw the waterfalls of Edessa and bathed in thermal springs.
Under Aridea, there was also a small market where we bought delicious nuts! Well, of course, we had a very good rest, we arrived relaxed and satisfied.
Our whole holiday went very well, thank you very much for such an organized holiday.
The hotel has several types of food, we had all inclusive. The main restaurant is good and spacious, there are certain days when theme nights are organized and then on this day there is mainly food that relates to this evening (Italian, Greek, etc. cuisine).
The territory is large, green, there are 2 swimming pools. One large Olympic size, where you can swim in the morning. Another children's with water slides, where kids can swim and ride on small slides.
The beach is good, with sand and pebble sand and a good entrance to the water, but there is a place where you need to enter carefully, as there are stones there, so I recommend wearing special shoes.
There is also a Grecoleto club in the hotel building. Specially trained staff who work with children. Girls conduct classes with children 3 times a day, of which the first 2 are classes in the club, and the third time they meet at a mini disco. Our kids didn't get bored.
In terms of location, the hotel is very well located. Near the hotel there is a small town of Kallithea (3 km) where you can go, there is a small souvenir area and you can have something to eat, various cafes, taverns, bars.
Behind him is another town of Afytos. This is an old city with stone houses and streets, which were also paved with stone. Very atmospheric and beautiful town, there are taverns overlooking the sea, located on a hill. Delicious seafood can be tasted there and not only.
In the outback of the peninsula there is such a city as Kassandria, where markets are held on Tuesdays, where we bought fruits and other delights of Greece.
Let's sum up our holiday! Interesting hotel with delicious food. A nice green area, where, by the way, morning exercises, yoga and so on are carried out on the grass. There is a pool and kids pool, Grekoleto kids club and great location.
I will give this hotel a 9 out of 10, just so they don't stop there and move forward. Thanks for a wonderful vacation. All liked it.
The territory is large, green, well-groomed, neat. I liked the area very much. There is a large swimming pool for adults, and a children's pool with slides, a playground, a large tennis court.
We booked breakfast and dinner, but on the spot with the help of the hotel guide Isoma, thanks to him, we rebooked for all inclusive for convenience.
We had a room with a sea view, the beauty is indescribable. Cleaned every day, there were no complaints, the maids tried.
Friendly and always smiling guys worked at the reception, they always helped if there were any questions, despite the fact that there were many guests in the hotel, they did everything quickly and smoothly and answered.
The cuisine is delicious, every day there was fish and meat, seafood as well, different types of side dishes (rice, beans, potatoes), cheeses, olives, fruits (apples, oranges, bananas, apricots) a huge selection of sweets.
There were also themed evenings at dinner, got to Italian, where waiters in special costumes play Italian songs, special thanks for the atmosphere.
The hotel has sports animation: yoga, stretching near the pool, volleyball on the beach, we went almost every day, praise the animators for a good mood for the whole day.
Sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach are free, but here we encountered a small nuance, the entrance to the sea is rocky, special shoes are needed. We went swimming in a couple of meters, there is a beach from the Pallini hotel, there is a gentle entrance with sand, and we lay on the sunbeds of our beach, because there they were already paid for us. The sea is absolutely gorgeous. Crystal clear, the sand does not wash away and the illusion of a dirty sea is not made. Perfect turquoise water.
Near the hotel is the village of Kallithea, developed infrastructure, pharmacies, clothing stores, jewelry, souvenir shops, cafes, restaurants, taverns, bars. Often in the evenings we went to just sit somewhere, relax, eat delicious ice cream.
In a relaxed Greek rhythm, we did not even notice how 10 days of our vacation flew by. They breathed the air, swam in the sea, rested their thoughts, the rest turned out to be healthy. Thank you Athos Palace for a wonderful stay and impeccable service.
Upon arrival at the hotel, we were met by hotel guides Isom and Alina, who helped with accommodation. We were seated right away, we didn't have to wait, we were happy with it.
The hotel is cozy, comfortable rooms, and most importantly family. There were many families with children, despite the beginning of the season.
Not far from the hotel are two villages Kallithea and Afytos. We really liked Afitos for its beauty, a colorful Greek town with delicious traditional taverns. We often dined there, I recommend the Galera tavern, insanely delicious seafood, the price is also acceptable and a beautiful view of the sea.
I'll return to the hotel, there are two fresh water pools on the territory of the hotel: an adult and a children's pool with small slides. Near the pool there is a bar where you can buy soft and alcoholic drinks, moreover, there is another bar in the main building, which is open in the evening. Good animation in the hotel, every day there are entertainment programs for children and adults. For children there is also a playground and a club.
As for the restaurant, very tasty! Every 3-4 days there were evenings with performances of different cuisines. We managed to visit the Chinese and Greek evenings, there were many types of seafood, live music, national costumes, in general, we were delighted.
The room was clean and spacious, sheets and towels were changed almost every day. The bed is large and comfortable. TV shows 2 Russian channels (ORT and Russia planet). There is a balcony.
The beach is close, the sea is crystal clear, the water is still exciting, but we were able to swim. Oh, it's the Greek sun in May, enjoy a wonderful tan. We bought a ticket for half board, sunbeds on the beaches for half board are paid, two sunbeds and an umbrella cost us 7.5 euros. The entrance to the sea is smooth and very even. There is a volleyball court on the beach and we hung out there almost every day. We had only positive emotions, I would like to thank the hotel management and our guides, who helped us throughout the rest.
