"Rooms were large and clean. The staff were great and did all they could to make our stay memorable. The pool was great and the food was excellent, breakfast, lunch and dinner were all very well done. The only caveat to that was the Tomatini restaurant which to our surprise was a little disappointing.
This part of the island flies under the radar and is an absolute gem."

"Decent hotel for the money. Pictures are deceiving. Pool has limited chairs. Did not eat at the hotel at all because there was always a faint smell of vomit. Room was old and needs updating. The housekeeper opened the door to the deck daily which made the room extremely hot upon entering and you are unable to leave on the air conditioning when you leave the room. The smallest shower I’ve ever seen with no wash rags available."

"We stayed at the Syntopia Hotel for our summer holiday. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, they put in extra effort to get to know you and ensure you are having a lovely holiday. A few days into our holiday, they were automatically bringing our favourite drinks to our table at meal times which was very lovely!
The food had such a good variety with a different focus every other night. We particularly enjoyed the Asian night.
We would recommend staying at the Syntopia to everyone!"

"Just spent the last week at Petradi Beach Lounge Hotel and had the best experience! The rooms and beds were incredibly comfortable, the breakfast was amazing, and the pool and beach area were absolutely perfect.
The best part, though, was the pool bar! Panos and Nikos were so friendly and welcoming, always helpful, made amazing drinks, and truly made Petradi feel less like a hotel and more like home. Can’t recommend this place enough — already can’t wait to come back!"

"We had an amazing time everything from the transfers to and from the airport to the hotel, to the hotel itself just couldn’t fault anything. The staff couldn’t do enough for you and they were so friendly.
This was the first time going all inclusive we couldn’t have chosen a better place the food was so nice and so much choice.
The hotel was very clean and tidy the grounds were well maintained. We will be staying here again in the future."

10/10 Excellent
Wonderful all inclusive family resort. I was worried the beach would be rocky, but it was sandy and water was clear. Staff were friendly and attentive. Although the resort has several restaurants, all meals are served in a main dining hall. The food was still excellent and there was enough variety even for picky eaters. We were also given a choice to have one dinner at another restaurant. Room was spacious and clean. There are also 4 pools located throughout the resort and an Aqua Park. ...
