Vacation hotel The environment is good, there is a swimming pool and an exclusive beach There are also cute cats to pet in the lobby. Optional meals included (two/three meals a day) It is far from the city, but there is bus line 1 in front of the hotel that can go directly to the Archaeological Museum in the city center. Taxi from airport to hotel 32 euros The hotel can book a taxi. It cost 25 euros for the two of us to go to the port early in the morning. (A Mercedes-Benz business car arrived. I was a little panicked, but it turned out that I was overly worried; cautious friends can clarify the price when booking.)

Hotel is located on the outskirts of Amoudara and there is not much to do outside the hotel or in Amoudara. The pool bar/snack bar fresh baked pizza was super tasty. The food at the buffet was quite ok. The hotel was clean and fresh. Unfortunately, the staff was less pleasant, both in the restaurant and at the towel service. We were a large family and had two rooms. We were given rooms opposite each other and were both happy and very satisfied. The staff who cleaned rooms 640 and 645 were very responsive and did exactly what we wanted. Both were very nice and absolutely fantastic. They did an excellent job which made our stay even better, thanks for all the nice conversations and many laughs❤️

The Apollonio Resort Beach & Spa markets itself as a 5-star hotel — which was a key reason why we chose to book it. Unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. In reality, the property resembles more of an outdated 3- to 4-star establishment, frequented — regrettably, again and again — by guests whose behavior lacked basic social etiquette. At times, the atmosphere felt reminiscent of “Ballermann” party culture. We had booked a junior suite, which turned out to be tired and old-fashioned in style. The mattresses were uncomfortably hard, and the bedding setup did not accommodate the bed frames properly. The bathroom was cramped, and the shower awkwardly integrated into a bathtub. Although the room was advertised as 60 m² (balcony included), the layout felt inefficient and the space not particularly well-designed. This resort may be acceptable for families looking for a casual 3- to 4-star vacation, but anyone seeking genuine luxury, peace, or elegance will likely be disappointed. The buffet was average at best. The à la carte restaurant was decent, though certainly not gourmet-level. On a more positive note, we would like to praise the animation team, particularly Ali, Eduardo, Mario, and Andrea, who were consistently upbeat and contributed greatly to the overall mood. Special thanks also go to the waitstaff, especially Manolis, Chrisi, and Stavros, who stood out for their professionalism, humor, and attentiveness. Sadly, other staff members lacked basic hospitality skills and seemed unsuited for their roles. We stayed for three weeks, and one major frustration was the lack of closet space, forcing us to live out of our suitcases — not exactly a 5-star experience. The beach was a highlight: spacious sunbeds with generous distance between them allowed for some degree of privacy. However, strong winds in June often blew sand directly into our faces, which made beach time unpleasant at times. Organizationally, the hotel was underwhelming. The pre-arranged taxi service failed; after waiting 40 minutes, we had to organize one ourselves. Though they kindly offered us a free return transfer to the airport as compensation, even this wasn’t managed properly. Another group of guests took our assigned cab, and we were left waiting an additional 30 minutes — a frustrating end to an already underwhelming stay. In summary: we do not recommend this hotel to anyone looking for refined service, comfort, or a true 5-star experience.

NOT RECOMMENDED. It is a far cry from being a 5 star hotel, at most it is 3 only. There is a power plant nearby, you can smell the gas when the wind blows from that direction, and awful view from the beach. Dated hotel, with average food and below average drink quality. Only good experience is the cleanliness, daily cleaning so no complaints on this one.

After spending a week at this resort I would recommend this to anyone . The staff are amazing from the cleaners to hotel management. The hotel itself is very clean and the team of cleaners work throughout the day making sure the resort is spotles FOOD A amazing selection of meals which are all coked to a high standrd this resort includes 3 additional restaurants I would highly recommend the Greek restaurant on the beach excellent service same can not be said about the Italian restaurant which we had to walk out of as service was extremely poor. SNACK BAR Chrisi at the snack bar is warm and welcoming and very polite and friendly also has a great memory for drinks and we did miss her on her days off but on her return the drinks went up another level. BEACH Clean sandy beach with ample free sunbeds a must is the sunrise from the beach. POOLS Main pool very clean excellent sunbeds and life guards on duty from 10am till 17.30pm. GYM A good variety of equipment Now for the not so good although this is a must see hotel resort I would suggest avoiding peek season as it is over run with Germans and as us brits know from years gone by they love to get up at 5am and grab all the poolside sunbeds so be prepared to set your alarm and get up extra early as I did on one occasion only to find that when I went to the beds I'd placed my towel on it had been moved to the wall alongside the pool and when I approached the person he claimed to speak no English however my gcse German was enough to let him know that I was not best pleased All in all a must visit resort

The whole experience at the spa from start to finish was amazing. My friend & I had full body massage, facial and scalp massage which made us fall asleep! We also did the hot rocks bed. The staff were very accommodating. We were celebrating my friends 30th birthday & the team put up a birthday banner in the massage room & made the day that more special for her. Thank you to, Elena, Olga & Vasiliki for a memorable day.
