It was GOOD. Can be better!
It was my 2nd time to go on this hotel. Price was okay but i wish it was lower. Just a little hiccup with the fridge as it was not working. They replaced but the replacement set was faulty too. We ordered dinner and took a bit longer...

Great place but no elevator
I was not able to get the room I booked because the hotel had no elevator and I am mobility challenged and this was not on the hotel details when I booked the room on hotels.com. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful... shout out to Nerwin in the dining room who i feel went above and beyond. Food was excellent and the hotel shuttle was great. Overall a good experience except for the inability to get the room i booked.

The beach has clear water. The food was great and affordable. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. The only point that needs improvement is cleanliness and lacks maintenance. The room assigned to me wasn’t neat, the bathroom smelled, the power slots were loose, bed sheets didn’t seem to have been changed (there was an entire piece of false eyelashes!).

Kind and friendly staff. Convenient and immediate access to the beach. Great food at the restaurant. Kayak and paddle board rentals available. Water slide and well-maintained pool was a big hit with the kids! Clean towels. Comfortable beds. Beautiful ocean view. Hotel is a bit run-down. Building is starting to deteriorate. My balcony door didn't close or lock properly. The phone in the room didn't work so I had to go to the desk for assistance. The right side of the beach and ocean is VERY rocky and there is no signage to indicate this. My daughter was on a floaty and when she got off, was expecting sand at the bottom of the water but ended up walking on rocks. She cut her foot very badly. Staff was kind and helped with bandaids but it would've been helpful if they told us that this side of the beach had sharp rocks.

Not impress about this hotel. Not close being called Santorini of the North. The only similarity is the white color and blue trimmings. I have been to Santorini, Greece for 5 days and not even close. Not worthed for the money.
