blissful getaway with perfect service

great support special treat large balcony turquoise waters
the resort staff offered amazing support during unexpected health challenges. i greatly valued the kind gestures of massage and sauna sessions at the spa plus signature cocktails. the à la carte restaurant dinner provided a special treat. the spacious room included a large balcony that overlooked the turquoise waters of mononaftis beach.
i noticed during busy times that securing a preferred spot by the pool required some effort.

the location offers excellent sea views from every angle. tsimento beach is part of the hotel and easily accessible while other public beaches are also nearby plus it is a short walk to agia pelagia village.

our double or twin room sea view had ample space to unwind after days in the sun. the views stretched over the turquoise waters below providing a constant reminder of the beauty outside plus cleanliness was always a priority.

Underwhelming All-Inclusive Experience

The view from my Double or Twin Room Sea View was acceptable.
The all-inclusive package felt weak. The main buffet restaurant was overcrowded. It was also understaffed, so it always was grubby with food and dishes everywhere.
