Yiannis Manos Hotel Resort

The hotel was better than expected, honestly. We always like an apartment for our family of 4 instead of a hotel room, but we did not know we were getting one. Our apartment had 2 large balconies, one of them overlooking the mountains. We watched the sunrise and the sunset from the 2 balconies. Thumbs up for a smart collapsible air dryer on the balcony. If a small plastic dish dryer were included, it would be perfect, or we should have been advised to bring a couple of kitchen towels from home. Only 2 soft mattresses, the other 2 were solid. All the low stars reviews I read prior to departure had nothing to do with our experience. Young adults travelling together prefer this hotel and reading a couple of reviews after the holiday I understand they come from the younger tourists. They go partying and return late, but we were too tired from too much swimming to be bothered, so I never ever saw any "security person" mentioned in many comments :) There is plenty of parking on the plot next to the hotel, though a bit dusty, but roomy. The location is fantastic to access a stunning beach preferred by locals with a great restaurant nearby serving freshly caught fish. Avoid the beach near the ***** if you travel with young children, there is no place for them there with so many young adults that are having fun 24/7 and the prices for sunbeds prices are outrageous there. We did use one of the hotel pools a bit and it was great, but we were mostly on the beach (not the one near the *****, the one from my photos). The food is good, though a bit limited on half board. We also upgraded our eldest child to an adult menu because the children's menu did not include all the dishes on the normal menu. Not all the dishes come with a salad. I would rather have a salad than a plate full of chips that go to waste. Serving is fast though. I would go self catering another time if booking here, just to be able to try more local dishes in other restaurants and tavernas nearby. Besides the grilled dishes there were 4 local dishes on the menu that we had over and over again, they were delicious! I would happily return to this hotel, it was fabulous!

Horribly hard beds, air con that you have to pay for and the staff were rude and didn’t care about anything. The only good thing about this hotel is the pool. Also the location is terrible and locals have physically attacked us on our way to the strips.

Rock hard beds, have to pay for air conditioning, and the security will constantly harras everyone for no reason. They also fined us for a broken chair that we didn't break and when we tried to explain it wasn't us and asked them to check cctv they refused and threatened to kick us out if we didn't pay. Pool and bar are nice but overpriced and the rooms being horrible and security and staff ruin the whole hotel.

the customer service here is awful, the only tidy people are the 2 british bar tenders, the rest are awful. really rude and unprofessional. shocking place to stay

We stayed here as a family in June 2025, room was spotless and hotel grounds extremely well maintenaned. Staff were all very friendly and polite and the food was fantastic! Honestly it exceeded our expectations and we had such a lovely stay.
