“Excellent familiy holiday location”
We had a great holiday with our family (incl. kids of 6 and 3 yrs old). We liked i) the all-in principle which was very much suited for our family (no waiting for the kids), with the overall quality of the food being very satisfactory, ii) the friendliness of the personnel, ensuring a very clean accomodation, iii) the different swimming pools (some heated) and the aquapark (not heated, advice is to bring a wetsuit for the kids early in the season) which did not feel crowded at all, iv) the location at the beach, and v) the option for a la carte dinner at the Greek Taverne or Asian place. Besides this, the location is no more than an hour away from the airport and some other highlights at the island (a rental car is recommended).

“A wonderful stay”
It’s the second time I visited Grecotel with my family and it was even better. We stayed at wonderful room with sea view and the space was perfect for a family with 2 children as it has separate room for them. Food options were more than enough and with great taste. I must mention as well the hospitality, kindness and how helpful was the staff working there. A really great place to stay with many facilities provided such as aqua park, spa etc

“A fantastic family hotel for a relaxing time.”
Whilst the hotel was apparently fully booked, it was easy to find areas of peace and quiet, and the aqua park was never as busy as expected. We liked the design of the property, with low buildings spread down the hill towards the sea. The food was excellent, with good variety. There were plenty of options of different places to eat and drink. The whole property was kept beautifully, and was very clean and well maintained. The staff were all very friendly and helpful.

“Endless fun for the whole family”
Amazing hotel with many different pools and restaurants to choose from, including 2 options for breakfast which are not the main restaurant. You can have a dinner at one of the the "special" restaurants for one evening during a week stay - we choose the Asian restaurant and it is highly recommended. But above all is the Aqua Park which is a huge bonus! our daughters loved it and spent most of the time there.
