If you are well traveled you will be shocked by this hotel being 5 star ..
I recently stayed and, unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. While the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, they were the only bright spot in an otherwise disappointing stay.
The coffee was a major letdown—terribly brewed and practically undrinkable. To make matters worse, the hotel offered no non-alcoholic beverage options, leaving guests with limited choices unless they resorted to tap water. This lack of consideration for all guests was surprising and frustrating.
The rooms were another disappointment. They felt outdated, with old furnishings and decor that seemed untouched for decades. The lack of modern amenities made the stay feel uncomfortable and unwelcoming.
Dining at the hotel was a costly and underwhelming experience. The food was overpriced, with a menu that promised much more than it delivered. The dishes were bland and uninspired, far from what one would expect for the price point. Additionally, long waiting times for service were a consistent issue, compounded by a buggy service that often got orders wrong or took far too long to correct them.
In summary, while the staff were great and did their best to provide good service, they were overshadowed by the hotel's numerous shortcomings. From poor coffee and beverage options to old rooms and overpriced, subpar food, the experience was not worth the cost. I would not recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made.

We came Yesterday night September 15 2024 after we got rough trip by ferry from Santorini. We couldn't sleep the last night , because no air-conditioned work in our room 226. After we complain about air-conditioned no working. Instead fixing the AC , they brought us a fan. ..that ridiculous , bad night, terrible stay in their room in such as expensive hotel.. completely bad service.

Actually, this is just one of the hotels in the entire complex. Unfortunately, guests from the other hotels can use the pool and have the communal breakfast, which can be a bit confusing and noisy. Overall, the hotel could use some renovation; you can feel the passage of time in the rooms. The service is very good, and the view is superb. The pool is inviting for activities but less so for relaxation. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the water is too cold. It was more comfortable to swim in the sea than in the pool. The hotel is slightly off the beaten path, so having a car is recommended.
The balcony furniture is terribly uncomfortable :(
Important note: they could use someone to inform guests about the location of the pool towels or make it more visible. During my week-long stay, I was asked about the towel's location about 20 times.

this hotel is very average. The views are amazing. Sophie accommodations are not if you like being at the pool or by the ocean the umbrellas are extinct I love being outside, but I don’t like full sun exposure. The concierge’s has no clue where to send you to eat or to just go around to other lands

The best hotel I have ever stayed! Here everything is perfect! The hotel is old and the rooms made in old style that firstly looks weird and after looks very unique and I fall in love In it.. The view on the sea is amazing! The cleaners are the best! Room was extremely clean every day. The breakfast is very tasty, quality of the products is great! The staff all over hotel is amazing! Special thanks to Olga - she was extremely helpful in anything. The beach is very small, but very quite and perfect for kids! And the beach is private with very beautiful water! I can't tell anything bad about this place at all! Just want to say a great thank you for such a great hospitality! We will definitely come back!
