Beautiful great service

We’ve been to a few Hotels normally 4 star so excited to stay in a 5 star. It however fell short so we were very disappointed - it’s definitely an average 4 star hotel. … I feel that my reviews are honest, so would like to start by saying the hotel itself was stunning being on the beach. The room was also great, we stayed in Block 8100, which was a fair walk from the main reception. There were loads of cats, which we didn’t mind, but if you’re not a cat lover, maybe not for you. The room was really nice and clean, but we ended up road side which was disappointing. (we didn’t book a swim up room as it was more expensive) There was no information in the room regarding what the protocol was or what was going on at the Hotel. We were advised that all the information could be found on the TV which meant I had to remember what was going on....... There were some working screens around the Hotel, but they weren’t always up to date. So we had to go back and ask some things again and ended up writing them on my phone noted. SERVICE: The first few days were great as it wasn’t too busy and nothing seemed too much for the staff, but once we got past the weekend it was very busy and the staff looked overworked and overwhelmed. We went from the table being laid up with knives and forks and spoons, and being looked after with drinks, to minimal cutlery and plates piles up on the tables around us and no one servicing the drinks for dinner. As it was cold most people ate inside and I don’t think the staff were able to cope. FOOD: The food selection was rather small, we would have expected double the choice for a 5 star hotel, it was definitely not as good as we have been used to in the past. Again, it started of with all the dishes having a label above stating the name of the dish, to not having any label towards the end of our stay. One woman complained as she wanted to know if the dish contained nuts!! Also, the food was often hit and miss as it was often cold instead of hot…And the choice was very limited, with the same pork menu and pasta most nights. I was surprised we didn’t have more fresh fish on the menu, but that might have been reserved for the Sushi Bar, which you had to pay for. Limited options for breakfast in the main restaurant with no cereal and one toaster!! The fruit selection was the worst I’ve seen, apples pears banana. The children’s selection of food was the worst I’ve come across. Breakfast was on until 9.30 which was rather early, with no backup other than the outside Streat Lab, which didn’t serve late breakfast. However a couple of days before we left they opened up the Italian restaurant and served breakfast until 11.00 am Although the information stated that there were 6 different restaurants, 2 were closed when we arrived and the barbecue as cancelled as it was too windy. One of the restaurants stated Adults Only and there were children running around (although I don’t mind children, just advertise correctly) The Streat Lab

Came here to attend my friends wedding..and WOW!! Stunning location, a few hiccups :/ But i have to shout out to these specific group of legends!! Our stay was made even more amazing thanks to these awesome individuals that work at the hotel, got a few more names to add too as couldn't get a picture with everyone! A huge thankyou to you all as you honestly were a great laugh, helpful and a pleasure to be around. Pool bar legend - Kyriacos Reception Area Bar Staff - Christos Eden Spa Legend - Dora Reception Bar Staff - Lefteris Reception Bar Staff - Panayiotis Extra shout out to Mustafa behind the Reception desk for the lovely warm welcome when checking in. Michael for taking us to our accommodation and taking our bags to our room. Adamos in the Greek restaurant so helpful and funny. (Food was incredible!) And annoyingly don't have his name but I believe the hotel manager? He was a diamond! Sat down with him and the chef about my Allergies, was so helpful, and anytime he saw me he would go and inform the chef where I was at about my Allergies too and checked how I was doing. Can't fault that ♡ The place has multiple places to eat which was amazing!, location was beautiful next to a beach, a mini shop on site too. Close to Ayia Napa Town and also short drive to Protaras which was stunning too!♥︎ Recommend! :)

Nice and clean Hotel. Friendly staff. Beautiful beach and breathless ocean. Good food. Restaurant Mandoline was top. Thanks to Mr. Andonis from the Restaurant Mandoline for having a great evening! Restaurant Dantes was also very good for having Breakfast and Dinner.

I spent 10 days at the hotel with my family. The hotel is beautiful. We stayed in a residence suite room which has a separate bedroom, living room and 2 bathrooms. Very spacious, Molton brown products and comfy bed which was great. Great pool areas and the staff service is impeccable.. pools very cold though. I had 2 spa treatments which were amazing too. So why the 4 stars? I’ve stayed at many 5 star hotels where the food was much better standard. Breakfast was a great choice but it was always cold. The buffet had the same type of food every day and whilst it was tasty it just got a little boring. We stayed early in the season so not all a la cartes were open. As we had a child we could only use 2 on AI. The Italian and Greek. Food here was amazing and would recommend. The Asian was open but not on AI. I would expect to maybe pay an additional surcharge but not full price. All in all we had a great holiday and I would stay here again but for a 5 star I think the food could be improved.

I had a fantastic scrub and Cretan massage with Lorena. She checked in regularly to make sure I was ok with the treatment and made recommendations for aftercare. The booking process was easy and supported by great advice from Anna. Amazing experience, thank you!
