Akti Imperial Deluxe Resort & Spa Dolce by Wyndham

Great staff, lovely hotel, spotlessly clean throughout, good choices of restaurants and food, in-room mini bar restocked as advertised, beach towel service faultless, lobby bar George and Luculus/Red Elephant’s waiter George both outstanding and a credit to the hotel. Housekeepers like ninjas, never seen but room was always cleaned promptly and well done.

We had one of the most delightful stays here during the October school break. As is normal with my reviews, here is some practical info and opinion that should help travellers. (some *photo attached). I have also attached a *location map of the hotel. Convenient location: From airport: ~15 minutes by taxi, 40-45 minutes by tour operated buses. To city centre and old town ~10 minutes by taxi. Taxi-stand right across the road, prices displayed. Day time ~12 Euros, 13-14 Euros at nighttime. There is a bus stop on the main road with *ticket machine (*1.80 Euros one way at the time). *Shops, restaurants, tour operators & water sports (would recommend using the water sports here rather than ones in town unless you want to spend 3 times the price) nearby. Don’t haggle too much, but you do get hotel guest concession at water sports. Reception and staff: All staff professional, courteous, extremely hard working and helpful. Reception can get busy and probably can improve with the speed of check in. Food and drinks: Main restaurant variety of foods, tasty, live kitchen, Tasty food. Vegan options +. It got very busy one evening and there was a wait for about 10 minutes for us, but some waited longer. This kind of rush is not unique to this hotel. Multiple bars with nearly 18 hours of snacks and flow of a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Main restaurant open 24 hours a day, with some basic but filling menu late night/early morning. Other *opening times-see photo. Entertainment team: Fabulous team that kept kids and adults totally engaged. Hats off to their hard work. Day time- for all, evenings for kids and families, later evening/ night- for adults. Outdoor podium. We loved this as, this did not feel crammed as can happen in indoor auditorium. Multiple activities during the day. Rooms: Clean, well maintained, usual amenities present. We took front sea view and enjoyed the stunning skyline and stunning *sunsets. Fridge gets topped up daily- wine, beer, soft drinks, water, juice!! (certainly, did for all inclusive.) We never used beer/wine as we enjoyed them at the main bar. Multiple floors, but dedicated lifts for 2-3 floors each. This avoids them being busy. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools, enough sun beds (including hotel owned ones on the beach). They don’t have a staff tips jar and would highly recommend that the management instals one. Thank you for making our stay enjoyable. Would I go back? A big yes!

Everything was amazing. Best hotel/resort ive been to. All the staff were professional and could speak very good english. The food was amazing. The views were spectacular. The rooms were clean. The range of activities you could do were all amazing. I had the time of my life. I suggest coming as a family over 3 people.

I stayed last week with my teenage sons and we loved it! We ate different food every day in the main restaurant and it was always delicious. Staff were all friendly and helpful and the sea view room was lovely. I can't wait to come back. As now is the beginning of high season, the tourist tax is €15 per room per night. Bus stops are outside the hotel, bus fare is €2.50 single fare and you pay on card.

Definitely not a 5 star hotel , maybe a 3 star if anything, quality of the rooms very poor , the door for the bathroom in the room and everywhere else is moisted glass so no privacy even in the bathroom around the hotel , the towels for swimming pool and bathroom looks they been heavily used than again no quality , staff at the hotel can be seen shouting with each other in front of everyone also drunk guests looking for men giving a very bad environment, both pools inside and outside are freezing cold, food is repetitive room cleaning is just making beds and there is water and wind noises coming from the walls making it difficult to sleep. will definitely not return to this hotel

Currently staying at this hotel. Good location, overall the accommodation is clean if not a little small for 2 adults and a teenager.All staff are very attentive and polite, pool areas well maintained with plenty of sun beds. Several restaurants giving a fair choice for most diners. However, anyone who needs a gluten free diet will struggle. The choices are very limited, which is disappointing in this day and age. There are only 1 or 2 choices each night other than salad. Very poor for those with dietary requirements unfortunately . Other than that it’s good value for money.
