On the site of the operator Vilar Tours (Vilar Tours), the hotel was category A, d price lists, even in the voucher category A, but in fact B (there was a sign on the inside of the door of the Greek supervisory authority, where category B was written in black and white). Yes, their number itself on A did not pull in any way. In the room "double standard", even considering the fact that we booked a room with a small child, there were two single beds pushed together, and the crib for the child was more like a playpen. The sofa and pillows on it were somehow not quite clean. Air conditioners, which are on the balconies of the rooms, hummed at night like good diesel generators. The territory, although well planted with trees, is very small. The hotel is located on a small hill, so you had to go to the restaurant and to the beach, as well as to the city, then go down, then go back up. The beach is beautiful, but not very big, both in width and length. The hotel still has a small cove with a beach, but also not big. The bottom of the sea at the hotel is mostly sand, but there are some stone heaps where various fish and sea urchins live. Saw a couple of starfish. In general, the beach is quite average compared to other beaches on the island. The cuisine at the hotel is quite tasty, but not the most refined. Many tourists complained that they didn’t give butter in the morning, but constantly slipped margarine, it was all the time. Some Russian tourists told the tour manager that the fish was "smelly", but, to be honest, I did not notice this. Of course, a few cooks and waiters messed around, but there was a very obvious reason for that. Weddings are often played in this hotel. From what I understand, they are British. And 3-4 days a week were closed, then part of the restaurant, then the beach bar, there were transfers of dinners, in general, it was felt that the cooks and waiters pay attention not only to vacationers. After each wedding, at 22-00, or even 22-30, fireworks and fireworks began to be launched quite loudly. The pool in the hotel is medium in size 15m. at 10m. , there is no department for children, although it was stated on the operator's website. The pool is very chlorinated, but the Brits, who are the majority in the hotel, really swam in it.
Of course, we were a little upset, because. Expected that the hotel will be category A, and he was even a B with a stretch. So be careful with unscrupulous operators like Vilar Tour, who deceive tourists for the sake of momentary profit.
Otherwise, the rest on this wonderful island was excellent. The weather was excellent +25-+30. Water 24-25. We took the Hyundai Getz for 35 euros / day. There is something to see, especially different beaches, mainly in the south of the island.

Good luck to all!
