Beautiful hotel being run down by very poor management.

Summary: Facilities in shabby condition (or not available) made worse by shabby behaviour during checkout. Fuller story: No one in reception when we arrived at midnight. Over 35 minutes, and requests to 3 members of staff, before someone arrived to show us to our room. After 17 hours travel (flight delays and food services not available) we'd been very much looking forward to the warm welcome promised when arranging the booking, especially the selection of "cold dishes" due to be in the room (given that we'd arrive too late for the included-in-the-rate dinner.) There was no food waiting, unless you count the extensive selection of dead moths in the pool. In response to our complaint, a plate of fruit and 2 small bottles of water was brought, which didn't quench our thirst or our disappointment. We tried to simply fall asleep but a big party with very loud Greek music still going on well after 2am spoiled that. In the morning I asked reception what had happened. Had they forgotten we were coming despite the emails? Response was defensive and belittling. I explained that I would pay for only 2 of the 3 nights that we were staying, i.e. not for that half a night with little food and little sleep. A couple of hours later an apology basket arrived - same fruit as the disappointing plate the night before (apples, bananas and kiwi - I'm not a fan) and a bottle of white wine... without a corkscrew (no corkscrew in room, nor any of the tea/coffee making facilities and water etc. to which international travellers are accustomed) On departure, the attempt was made to charge me full price for all 3 nights. Although reception staff tried to help, they were clearly being dictated to by the "owner". Eventually the "best offer" was half price for the first night's stay. Not appropriate in the circumstances, so I tried to negotiate further, at which point the "owner's" offer was raised back up higher and I was told that the Tourist Police were on their way, would be there in 5 minutes. I didn't believe they were, and they didn't arrive in the next 15 minutes, but I did take it as evidence that the "owner" was willing to play shabby and outdated negotiation tricks, so I paid the half price offer and left (by then running too late and having too many people waiting for me to call the owner's bluff) I was/am looking for a venue for retreats for groups of international business leaders. Not here! In fact, this episode reminds me of that Julia Roberts' moment in Pretty Woman: "Big mistake. Huge!" Much sympathy for the staff (some of whom were very helpful) who displayed numerous behaviours indicative of being cowed by intimidating, overbearing and bullying styles of leadership.

Amazing views and lovely hotel

Hotel is a little dated but its clean, staff are very friendly and for the price you are getting an absolute bargain. The pool is huge and over looks the stunning sea and mountains. Hotel offers half board stay and food was decent selection was ok but you can't really fault this hotel. Boat trip to different beaches goes from the hotels pontoon so perfect for anyone wanting to explore the island

Amazing!

I went out of peak season, infact, the end of the season. It’s a beautiful resort and would’ve loved to go in peak season to enjoy all the facilities. I had a superior room, with spectacular views of the Greek mountains and coast line. The hotel is beautiful, clean and tidy. The balcony to eat on offers amazing unrestricted views of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. The facilities were great, but due to covid, the gym and indoor pool weren’t in use. However, I did have a sauna, use the infinity pool and venture to the decking area which wrapped around the Clifford area and swam in the sea. It’s a beautiful resort and would definitely go again. Whilst we only had breakfast there, that was a great offering of English and continental food, which was fresh and tasty. The lady who was serving the food (covid restrictions applied to self service) was very generous with her portions which sets you up for the day. Make sure you rent a car or motorcycle as the beaches dotted around the area really are stunning and not to be missed!!
