This is a beautiful hotel with great staff, we had a studio room with private pool on half board basis. We ate at the Greek restaurant and the Asian, both very good, the buffet restaurant was lovely with a great choice, there is a nice little beach bar & restaurant too. The only thing that let it down for me was the pools were salt water, which I found very difficult to swim in and this was one of my main reasons for getting away, I wanted to build my fitness after a year of cancer treatment, I never expected a salt water pool to be so difficult, it’s like being in the Dead Sea where your legs keeping floating up! The main pool is lovely to look at but hardly anyone in it because it’s also very cold, speaking to others they felt the same, too cold and difficult to swim in. The beach is small & gritty, not particularly attractive and not suitable for children, I would say this is a couples resort, there were 2 couples I noticed with new babies but no other children, it’s not really geared up for children, I would also say not suitable for those with mobility issues, it’s hilly with a lot of steps to restaurants. We were let down by transport we arranged through British Airways and ended up getting a taxi from airport which was 85 euros. Taxi in to town is 7 euros, a lively town with plenty of shops and restaurants. Room was lovely but only coffee machine, I asked for kettle and fresh milk for tea which was no problem as room service is excellent. If I wasn’t fussed about the pool I would definitely go back, this hotel has a lovely feel about it
