Прекрасный отдых в прекрасном отеле с шикарными видами Great stay in a great hotel with amazing views

They flew from Zaporozhye. The landing is extreme)) since the runway starts right from the outskirts of the coast. I advise you to shoot a video - it turns out interesting)). A PCR test upon arrival was not done to anyone from the plane. It took about 1.5 hours to get to the hotel, but it all depends on the number of hotels you will visit along the way. Ours was the last
We arrived at the hotel at 21.20 pm. The canteen/restaurant is open until 21.00. A very pleasant smiling elderly man at the reception (it is he who does not speak Russian, they spoke English) immediately directed us to the dining room, where dinner was waiting for us, which we were pleasantly surprised, since we no longer counted on him) Then he issued cards / keys from numbers.
There were 9 of us, we got the rooms based on what we ordered: 1 room for 3 people with a sea view, and 3 rooms for 2 people without a view.

As far as I remember correctly, in 2017 Greece introduced a tourist tax, which is paid once in all hotels upon check-in, the amount of which depends on the number of hotel stars, it was 18 euros per room.
Rooms: fresh new renovation everywhere, soft very comfortable beds, snow-white linens. A TV with Smart TV, so that in addition to Russian-language channels, you can use smart if necessary. In the shower, solid soap + liquid gel / shampoo in dispensers. The view from the sea view room is just amazing.
The Internet in the hotel is unlimited, but paid, we knew about it, and this amount was immediately included in the budget).
Food: I really liked it. Yes, not Turkey. But everything is different and very tasty. Breakfast, of course, like everywhere else, everything is the same: pastries are very tasty, everything for cereals, sausages, cheeses, eggs, sausages, fried ham, vegetables, fruits, yogurts... Lunch and dinner are always meat and fish, various side dishes (lasagna, dalma... ), salads . Meat was always different: beef, lamb, chicken... for dinner + there were always seafood: either rice with shrimp, or noodles with octopus, or mussels in a shell... You definitely won’t stay hungry). There is a coffee machine in the dining room and at the reception, so for lovers of this drink - this is paradise). In the morning, juices are collected in a vending machine in the dining room, at lunch and dinner, everything is alcoholic and non-alcoholic at the bar.
Once we went for lunch at the cafe "Panorama" located 5 minutes from the hotel. I recommend - very tasty. A large plate of fisherman's salad - which includes octopus, mussels, huge shrimps, vegetables - costs 9 euros. A glass of beer - 3-4 euros.
On account of drinking: the bar in the hotel is open from 11 to 22.45. Tasty alcohol (not like in Egypt)) The bar works in turn during the day: usually from 11 to lunch on the 1st floor, after dinner at the pool on the 4th floor (since in the morning everything is at sea, and after dinners are relocated to the pool, and then again for the evening on the first floor.

The hotel is located on a mountain and you can move around the floors, and platforms with charming locations can be both on the steps and on 3 elevators.
Beach: Yes, there are not a small number of steps to the beach, and it's hard to climb to the top, but after a lot of food and drink, it's even more "+" than a minus. The beach is public, the cost of sun loungers on the beach is from 8 euros to 10. It is possible to take your own bedding and lie down wherever you like. The length of the beach is very large, the entrance is accordingly varied. There are places where there are stones, and it is not very comfortable to enter, but there are places where there is sand - everything is up to you. The water is so transparent that you can see the pedicure up to a millimeter) The blueness of the water and the views around are simply mesmerizing - very very beautiful. By the way, when we drove past other hotels, and comparing I can say that their beaches and the color of the water are completely far from this beach.
We took a minibus for a walk in the city of Agios Nikolaos. The reception has a timetable. The fare for one way / 1 person is 1.60 euros, the journey takes about 20 minutes. The bus stop is located directly under the hotel.
We took a tour of the Cave of Zeus. Departure at 6.40 arrival at 18.00. The day before departure, on the advice of the guide, we contacted the reception informing us about the upcoming excursion. On the very day of departure, we were fed breakfast, and were given a lunchbox (sandwich with cheese and ham, water, tomato, cucumber and peach).
Once a week (on Tuesdays) the hotel hosts a disco with a guest DJ. It was fun)
On the day of departure, having handed over the room at 12.00, we were pleasantly surprised to receive a gift from the hotel - a voucher for a free lunch.
I want to separately thank a very nice friendly girl at the Reception, whose name is Artemis, and all the staff.
We were very pleased with the hotel. The views are really very charming. The hotel is awesome. The staff is friendly.

By the way, before the trip, I found a page of this hotel on Instagram, and I received prompt answers to all my questions…
And at the end, regarding the reviews, I want to quote the parable about the fly and the bee:
A fly in the most flowering meadow will find an unclean place and sit on it, and a bee in the most smelly swamp will find a lotus flower and collect nectar from it. We only find what we are looking for. And how your vacation will be depends only on you)
