The food was delicious, and the drinks – especially the alcoholic ones – were great. The service was absolutely top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. Everything was clean, neat, and very well maintained. The views were stunning and really added to the relaxing atmosphere. A big thank you to Mr. Alexandros – such a kind and cheerful person who made our stay even more special. Highly recommended – we’ll definitely be back!

We stayed at the hotel with the all-inclusive package, and overall the experience was great and pleasant. The food was varied both in the morning and evening, and nothing was missing. The pizzas served at lunchtime were simply delicious, and the waitstaff were extremely kind and welcoming. The location is definitely one of the hotel's biggest advantages—very close to the beach, which is also easily accessible. A few things to keep in mind: The mattress was ok and without cover. It's important to book a room above the 3rd floor if your view isn't facing the sea; otherwise, you're mostly looking at a wall. Pool towels are quite hard to find—they're located inside an interior room, and it feels like that’s intentional. The gym doesn’t have water or towels, which is very strange and quite unpleasant. The entertainment team was generally nice, though the dance classes could definitely use some improvement. All in all, we had a very enjoyable stay!

I stayed at the Akti Imperial Deluxe Resort & Spa Dolce by Wyndham for a week in early April. While the weather was a mix of wind, rain, and sunshine, I enjoyed my overall experience. However, be prepared for an unexpected €15 per day tourist tax at check-in, totaling €105. Location and Room The resort is ideally located with a private beach accessible via an underground walkway, avoiding a busy main road. Bus services to the Old Town and Elli Beach take about 20 minutes, and it’s only a 25-minute drive from Rhodes Airport. We booked the family annex, which had pull-out beds rather than two separate rooms. The room was clean, with fresh towels daily, ample storage, and a free safe and mini bar. Hotel and Entertainment The hotel is quite large and felt empty, likely due to the early season. Unfortunately, evening entertainment was lacking, with only kids' shows and karaoke. Many guests resorted to playing Uno in the lobby, and some even brought a boombox for makeshift entertainment. Food and Service The staff were friendly and attentive, providing good service around the pool and lobby. The buffet dining hall had a decent selection, but it became repetitive after two days, and there were often queues for seating. Nearby Attractions Nearby attractions, such as the Old Town of Rhodes and Elli Beach, are easily accessible by bus. Improvements Evening entertainment needs improvement—live music or engaging activities would enhance the experience. Conclusion In summary, while the Akti Imperial Deluxe Resort & Spa Dolce by Wyndham offers a great location and friendly service, the lack of evening entertainment and repetitive dining options diminished my overall enjoyment.

We stayed 7 nights, had a great time. The location is very good, close to Rhodes town. Food was great and very flavorful, we ate at the buffet every night and had no issues. The only feedback we have is that the rooms could be cleaned better, it was generally cleaned but not the best.

We stayed at the Akti Imperial Deluxe Resort & Spa for seven nights in a sea view room (Room 722), and overall, we had a pleasant stay with a few standout moments — and a few letdowns. The resort itself is well-equipped and makes a strong first impression. Food is available throughout the day at various points around the resort, which is really convenient. The homemade pizzas are especially delicious and became a firm favourite during our stay. Drinks, including beer and soft drinks, are self-service, which keeps queues down and gives you the freedom to help yourself as you go. However, the main restaurant was a bit underwhelming. While there was a wide range of food each night, it felt like there was a little bit of everything but not much of anything. Dishes tended to rotate between lamb, chicken, pork, and fish, but with only slight variations. At times, the combinations didn’t quite make sense — one night, meatballs were on offer in the Italian section, but there was no pasta or spaghetti to go with them. Our sea view room was cleaned daily, and the minibar was restocked just as regularly. The bathroom was clean and modern, with a walk-in shower and a hair dryer, and a small but appreciated touch was the pair of slippers provided. The view from the balcony was a real highlight — overlooking the Aegean Sea, and on a clear day, you could see the coast of Turkey. For aviation enthusiasts, the room’s position also offered a great view of planes on their approach to land, which we enjoyed. The resort includes some extra features like a 7D cinema and escape rooms, though we didn’t get the chance to use them. There’s also a well-stocked mini market on site selling everything from sweets to inflatable pool toys. For families, there’s a dedicated games room to help keep children entertained. One thing to be aware of is the tourist tax, which isn’t always highlighted during booking. We were charged €105 for our 7-night stay, payable upon arrival. Check-out was mostly smooth, but we did experience an unnecessarily awkward moment when trying to return our pool towels. Reception initially told us to take them to the spa, which was fine — except when we got there, it was closed. When we returned to reception, we were told the spa doesn’t open until 10am. We explained we were leaving before then and had already checked out, at which point the receptionist reluctantly took us behind the desk to place the towels into a crate full of others. It left us with the impression that she was being deliberately difficult, which took a bit of shine off the otherwise positive final morning. All in all, the Akti Imperial has a lot going for it — fantastic views, great pizza, clean rooms, and lots of amenities. There are a few service inconsistencies, but it’s still a solid choice for a sunny, sea-view getaway.
