Were from 2 to 9 August 2019 as part of 2 parents + a child of 6 years.
We arrived at 22:30, settled immediately, suggested where to eat. The snack bar is open until 00:00. Greek tax per room - 3 euros per night, must be paid immediately. We had a room with a sea view (about 5% more expensive than usual) - I advise you to take just such. The sun rises from the side of the sea and from 13-14 hours until sunset it already shines from the side of the island. The room is small but enough for us. Cleaned up every 2 days.
The sea is warm, clean and calm. The coast is rocky, although in some places there are deposits of coarse sand. Only the most sissies will need coral slippers to enter.
We took a sightseeing tour of the island (in a day we managed to go around: Lindos, Cape Prasonisi, Monolithos Castle, a village of winemakers under Mount Ataviros, 7 springs - it cost 50 Euros for adults, 30 for children) - I liked it very much.
We went to the city of Rhodes on a red boat that picks up directly from the pier near the beach (14 euros - back and forth, half price for children).
The city of Rhodes is interesting, you have to go.
We walked around the mountain, which is above the hotel - there is a zoo and an observation deck, it's free. It makes sense to go with kids.
In general: the hotel is good, it corresponds to its 4 *. Liked more Turkish and Egyptian 5 *. The sea is clean, the food is varied, there are opportunities for entertainment. There is where to go on foot, there is where to go on an excursion. Contingent: 90% of families with children. Mostly: Germans, Poles, Italians, Scandinavians, French, even Greeks. There are a lot of "Russian speakers", but not Tagil-style, also families.
Definite pluses:
1) Clear sea: no jellyfish, no algae or floating debris. Honored Blue Flag.
2) The presence of water slides (4 pieces from a single tower).
3) Several places to eat: from 7 am until night you can find where to eat. The choice of food is good, there are fresh fruits and vegetables, many types of meat, there is a choice of fish, ice cream, sweets, nuts, traditional cuisine, wines in the evening. (We ate a lot, but did not gain weight.
Probably because they swam a lot in the sea. )
4) A good children's pool for kids + a paddling pool for very little ones.
5) Evening animation in two locations: for adults at the bar, for children in the kids club. The animators did their best.
6) Near the pier from which a boat runs several times a day to the port of Rhodes and 2 times a week to Lindos.
7) The staff is friendly, which is remarkable - the majority of women. The Greeks generally liked much more than the Turks and Egyptians. More friendly and honest.
8) Nearby there is a zoo and an observation deck on the mountain (in the Esperos Village hotel), a huge water park and an amusement park.
Features, for some they will be disadvantages:
1) At the bottom of the sea (on the territory inside the buoys) there are several pipes and parts of concrete structures. There are few of them, they are already at a depth, but they are there.
2) Safes are paid, near the reception. 3 euros per day, deposit 30 euros.
3) Wifi is everywhere, even on the beach. When it's deserted, you can even make video calls.
But when a lot of people accumulate in some place, it works unstably. As for me, this is normal.
4) Air conditioning is not individual, but central. It cooled quite well, and also ventilated. I don’t know why the reviews complain about it, it’s a normal option.
5) Slot machines and billiards - paid. Table tennis - free of charge.
6) Adult pools are not very large, so they are loaded very tightly.
7) The territory is not huge, but there was enough space for everyone. Many sunbeds on the beach are "occupied" with beach towels and no one comes to them for hours (Russians have been repeatedly noticed for this, and Europeans leave everything free). But still we could always find a free sunbed and an umbrella.
Real disadvantages:
1) One of the nights (August 7 or 8) the wind changed direction: it always blew from the sea, but on this day from the island. It also smelled strongly of burnt plastic. Until 11-12 am.
I understand that somewhere in the depths of the island there is a waste incineration plant. Apparently not very deep. Smelling not only this hotel, but the entire coast near Faliraki.
2) There is no lifeguard on the tower on the beach, which is very strange. Although they are near the pools.
Recommended for: Families with children.
