Kresten Royal Euphoria Resort

All inclusive was our mini holidays , wise decision, food was very good with different variety every day, staff very polite Amazing view, very good location .,very close to the town Highly recommend

My husband and I stayed at the Kresten for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We travelled mid-September and we are in our late 40’s with no kids so our opinions might not match those of anyone travelling younger/older or with kids. We flew from Belfast and got a private transfer to the hotel and used the same company back again booked through Love Holidays. I would highly recommend this as the journey wasn’t long, maybe 20 minutes but the comfort of getting off the plane and being on our way quickly was great. I know there have been some people who have experienced issues with Rhodes airport but we were through customs within 10 minutes and our bags were off the plane within 20 minutes. The airport is small so when we came out of the baggage area all the taxi/buses were immediately there and easy to find. On our return we booked the airport lounge and again this was really worth it just to have somewhere relaxing to wait. Again we got through security and passport control in under 30 minutes but the airport was really busy so the lounge was a life saver. What I found for all journeys we took during our time in Rhodes was that the taxi’s/buses were always on time and in some cases early. We arrived at the hotel late at night – around 11.30pm and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. They had mentioned they hadn’t had anyone stay from Northern Ireland in over 2 years so asked loads of questions and seemed interested. As we had arrived so late there was a small room with sandwiches, fruit, some hot food etc which was really welcomed after travelling. The room we picked was a Junior Suite with a Private Pool which we did as it a special occasion. When we arrived there were rose petals and towels made into swans on the bed which was a lovely touch. The mini bar was stocked with water and cold drinks as well as a complimentary bottle of wine which was very nice. Some things about the room:- • There was a coffee machine that the pods for were all restocked daily. • The room also had beach towels, nice toiletries, a hairdryer, a beach bag, robes and slippers. • The bathroom had a jacuzzi bath which was actually really nice to use • The room was also really big and had a sitting area and TV which we didn’t use but I think it only had a couple of English speaking channels like the News etc so maybe bring a firestick or table • As well as standard European plugs there was also some USB ports beside the bed • Cleaning was daily and was always spotless. • The aircon was a life saver on those really hot days. • There was also a room service menu which came at an extra cost to use. • The shop sells pool floats for around £10 - £15 which we gave to the room next door when we left Some things of note:- • If you want something a bit special they have a ‘dinner on the beach’ experience which is amazing with a private areas setup with lights and music and a personal waiter with food to your taste. Its best to contact the hotel before you travel to g

I had booked 2 double rooms with garden view but on arrival we were told we had been upgraded to a suite with a private pool. The rooms were amazing. Very spacious. Massive bed in the master bedroom. Huge bathroom. And our own pool overlooking the gardens. It was absolutely gorgeous. I can’t really fault anything about this hotel. The food is delicious. The staff are attentive. The grounds and rooms are immaculate. There is a buffet restaurant which lovely. Also a cafe by the lower pool delicious food also. A bar overlooking the sea. And also a wine and champagne bar. The pool areas are spacious lots of availability especially the earlier part of the day. No reserving of sun-beds and heading off for a few hours. The only niggle which I wouldn’t mark it down for was booking the a la carte restaurants of which there is 3. On arrival we tried to book as we were told you could go as many times as you want. We found it to be full for the whole week. They did mange to squeeze us into the Asian one night but then we were told there was an event for the rest of the week. We saw they were actually closed. A bit disappointing but the food was delicious elsewhere. There is not much around the hotel but bus stops outside the hotel to take you to Rhodes Town, Lindos etc really easy to use go every 20 minutes and cheap. Take plenty of mosquito repellent they are ride. I’m normally the only one to get bitten but all 4 of us were bitten lots in the first few days. Make sure you keep the doors shut if sitting outside. The hotel cats are very cute and a few kittens too so make sure you take Dreamies!!!

We've just come back from an amazing week at Kresten Royal. To start, the food was the best we have ever had at an all inclusive resort, the buffet has a mass selection and had something for everyone, we struggled to decide what to eat as there was so many choices! The reservation restaurants (we had one night at each) where outstanding, the menu was small, but the food was exceptional and as good as any restaurant we visited on a couple of nights out we had also. The alcoholic drink selection was varied, although I would say the beer and wine included where not very good which did mean we had to buy a few nice beers while we were there, but the cocktails were lovely so we stuck to these mostly. The hotel and rooms where very clean, the pool areas where lovely, with plenty of available sunbeds all day. The entertainment was minimal, but this is exactly what is advertised and why we booked this hotel, we wanted to have a relaxed more chilled experience than your typical hotel. We also booked in for a couple massage at the spa and as it was my birthday the staff offered us a discounted rate or a free gift with the price, this was a lovely experience and we have to give a special mention to Michael in the spa who was very informative and helpful in regards to treatments once we return home. The staff where all very friendly and helpful. Overall we had an amazing week and would definitely return again.

We returned for a second stay in July ‘25 after a great first stay in 2022. Pleased to say it was as amazing as we remembered. The hotel is beautiful and the staff are so friendly and welcoming. Special shout out to George and Petros, great to see they were still there and still making their lovely cocktails. They are a real asset to the hotel. The view from the pool and bars is incredible. Such a relaxing week away. Will definitely be back for a third visit

My partner and I stayed here for 9 days and it was probably the worst hotel we’ve ever stayed in . We checked in at 11:30 PM last Monday, arriving hungry after a long day of travel. Unfortunately, the food situation was immediately disappointing. When we asked about dinner options, we were shown a tray of cold coleslaw wraps that didn’t look particularly appetizing. A staff member then directed us to another room where “late night snacks” were supposedly available. When we got there, everything was empty. We later learned that the snack room is stocked once only at 10 PM with a limited selection: cold ham and cheese bites, mini pizzas (each barely half the size of my palm), sandwiches, and more of those same coleslaw wraps. Once these run out, they are not replenished — so if you arrive after 10 PM, you’re out of luck. We were taken to our room and were immediately disappointed. It was the most basic and rundown room I’ve ever seen. The so-called “double bed” was just two single beds pushed together, which was both uncomfortable and impractical. The bathroom was equally underwhelming — the glasses had what looked like dried spit on them, the bathtub was stained, and so were the towels. I then saw ant crawling across the table and saw ants everywhere: on the floor, the tables, the walls, even in the bathroom. I was absolutely disgusted. My partner called reception to report it, but they seemed to know exactly what we were talking about, which made it clear this wasn’t a new issue. They sent someone over with bug spray, and while he did spray the ants, he left the dead ants scattered across the floor. We then phoned reception again to ask if we could switch rooms, but were told flatly, “No, we’re full.” I explained that there were still ants all over the floor and that I really didn’t feel comfortable sleeping there. Their response was, “What do you want us to do?” — which came across as incredibly rude and dismissive, with no apology or concern. I had to specifically ask for someone to come and clean the room. Still feeling very hungry, we decided to call reception to order room service, especially since it was advertised as being available 24/7. However, when someone finally answered, they said, “What do you want now?” — which I found incredibly rude and unprofessional. To make things worse, we were then told that room service actually closes at 10PM so we went to sleep without having eaten since early afternoon. ROOM: 1. The room was not cleaned properly at all throughout our stay. 2. The bedding was never changed during our stay. On our last day, we noticed a small card next to the bed that, on the reverse side, said to place it on the bed if you wanted the sheets changed — something that was never explained to us. 3. Our balcony was covered in bird droppings that were never cleaned, and any plates or cups we brought to the room were left untouched for days. 4. The door had no proper lock, which made us feel unsafe. 5. The ceiling was
