I am writing this review on a lounger by the pool. It's been 3 days now and I don't think it will change. Arrived a / to NordStar. Good carrier. I like it. Departed exactly on time and even woke up and fed. Tour operator Mouzenidis is also great. Met, taken and told everything along the way. Thanks to the hotel guide Anastasia too. Will always go forward. Now the hotel. Arrived at 9 am. They offered to immediately have breakfast while preparing the room. Number got 501. You have to go up the hill. Although there are 2 elevators, it will probably be hard with a large suitcase. The room is good, big. TV set with 3 Russian channels. True, for some reason there is no sound. There is a hair dryer (I tried it, but I couldn't turn it on. ) Kettle. The toilet is not bad, but the shower cubicle! (For some reason, the door is 10 cm shorter than the opening, and when you wash yourself, all the water flows into the toilet and there is nothing to wipe it with. Inconvenient. ) In the morning I found a healthy cockroach. I thought an exception, but the next morning I killed 3 already. Maybe because the room is on the 1st floor. Wi-Fi is good on site. Free. Sometimes he was in the room, sometimes he wasn't. You go out the door - everything is OK at once. Now about nutrition. I have all inclusive. I was expecting more. Varied, tasty. But just food. There are no fruits for August at all. Hard and not tasty, like in winter in Murmansk. Alcohol too. Beach. There is basically no beach. Small, narrow, dirty. The beach is sandy, but the sunset is pebble. And there are also large boulders. Not without shoes. Meters through 15-20 sand again. Generally uncomfortable. And you won’t go in without shoes, and then you will be full of sand. There are showers to rinse off. So everyone sits by the pool all day. But the staff is 5+. All good fellows. And the uncle at the reception. He speaks Russian poorly, but he tries. I think you will understand each other. Cleaners are great. Animators entertain as they can from morning until late at night. But not in Russian. All are very friendly. Output. Will I return here? Question. If only for breakfast and with a car rental to go to other beaches and just see the island. Only overnight stay at the hotel.
