Good day! Rested in this hotel with two families with children from 06/08/2014.
Accommodation: We arrived in the evening - they were waiting for us so that we could have dinner, they left the restaurant open. The rooms are small. Unpleasantly surprised that the third place for the child was a banal folding bed. For a 5* this is definitely unacceptable. They asked the tour operator to resolve the issue, so that they would give at least a full-fledged duvet cover with a blanket for the third place - they agreed, but did not give it. Upon arrival, a bottle of wine was waiting for us at the dressing table - free of charge.
Food: good, even monotonous, but everything is tasty and edible. Fruits: oranges, apples, bananas, grapefruits, kiwi, apricots, peaches, cherries, watermelons and melons appeared at the end. All freshly prepared. Freshly squeezed orange juice in the morning. The bars worked strangely - until 6 pm, only the central one until 11. On the beach, the bar continued to work after 6, but only for a fee (even drinks). Interestingly, for ultra all inclusive, drinks are free, and cocktails from them are paid. The Greeks were served out of turn. Bars were limited to drinks and ice cream.

Beach: sand and pebbles, plenty of sun loungers. There are not enough umbrellas - there are many who want to sunbathe in the shade, but before our departure they increased their number. In general, there is not enough space not on the beach, but by the pool. The beach is clean - no complaints. For some reason, the children's pool was icy all day long - it is not clear how it was designed. The territory is well-groomed, very beautiful around. Towels at the reception - bail - 5 euros.
Animation is weak. Mini-disco for kids, aerobics, water polo, volleyball - and then for the last 2 they organized themselves. I really liked the performance of groups on Fridays and Sundays - live sound. For football fans at the World Cup organized a projector in the lobby. It was possible to take tennis rackets for free - on the territory of 2 courts.
SPA center - I recommend to go in the first 3 days of arrival. Buy a scrub first. The procedure includes a sauna, hammam, Jacuzzi with hydromassage. Paid gym, although it's free on the website. In order to still be free - take the annex to the contract - it helps without question. In general, apparently, you should always ask for a transcript from a travel agency, which is recommended as a paid procedure, and which is free.
Near the territory of 1 shop. Although, I must admit, it is very interesting - food, drinks, household chemicals, and souvenirs. The prices are normal. Who loves p / dry-p / sweet wines - try apelia black - 1.5 liters - 5.6 euros.
Where to go: Meteora is just magical. We also went to Edessa and Oridea - to the thermal springs. From this hotel these trips are stress-free - 2 hours drive. Who wants to go to Olympus - take warm clothes with you - 9 degrees.
I do not advise you to go to Katerini - there is no shopping there, and a taxi costs 20 euros one way. They say that many go shopping in Thessaloniki, it's cheaper there. The Greeks work in their own way - from 2 to 5 they have a break. It is necessary to go in such a way that you will return before or after this time, otherwise everything will be closed.

Also on the topic - on the second day after arrival, we had an accident - in a restaurant where there is a stand with drinks and a coffee machine, a side stand (15-20 kg) fell on my leg. It is not fixed by anything and falls with a frequency of a couple of times a day. My leg was torn because I didn't see her fall. She asked for a doctor. The cost of calling a doctor fell on my insurance?? ? In the evening they brought a plate of fruit and an apology to the room. The stand has not yet been fixed. There's just something to do - put a latch. I ask you to pay attention to this as vacationers - if such a colossus falls on a child, they may read it in the hotel and remove this issue.
And the last thing about the tour operator. All girls are great. We met perfectly, spent, but unfortunately did not eliminate any remarks about the hotel at all. Interestingly, excursion trips for Europeans were cheaper - 60 euros for us Meteora, 49 for Europeans. We signed up for the first trip and paid for it 2 days before it, but in the end they forgot to bring us in and the driver tried to kick us out of the bus in a rather rude manner. The problem was not solved by finding a seat on another bus, but stood in a stupor and waited for the problem to be solved by itself. It was terribly unpleasant, spoiled the mood "Room number get off the bus. " They were not interested that the documents were in our hands, everything was paid for, that the date was a day earlier than most of the bus, that this was not the only trip we went on, so it was important for us to get there this time in order to have time to go somewhere else anything. That it was they who filled the bus after our recording, whether they made it or not. It wasn't their problem.
In a word, there were no incidents. But we liked the Hotel - quiet and calm, clean and tidy. The rooms are cozy (especially for two). The food is delicious. The sea is wonderful. The beauty around is indescribable, which washed away all negative emotions and left only a pleasant memory of the thunder and lightning of Zeus over Mount Olympus, the clear water of the Aegean Sea, the holy road straight to Meteor paradise, the hot thermal springs of Oridea and 2 weeks of excellent rest in Greece.
