Astrakoi Vacations from $313

Our third stay. Always welcoming, lovely staff. Very clean rooms and facilities. Excellent restaurant. Beautiful pool area. We will return again one day.

This was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I’ve had. The Hotels.com listing is misleading and materially inaccurate. Its advertised the hotel as being on a white sandy beach with an exclusive beach bar, complete with photos suggesting exactly that. In reality, there is no exclusive beach bar and the nearest beach is public, rocky and nothing like the images or description (it’s a vile beach). Had the listing been accurate, I would never have booked this hotel. The problems didn’t end there. The blonde concierge was extremely unhelpful and refused to assist with booking restaurants or beach clubs. The hot water remained lukewarm throughout our stay and the manager shrugged his shoulders and refused to investigate. Towels were stained, had holes in them and are used interchangeably for both the bathrooms and the beach. The patio door regularly got stuck creating a safety concern. Housekeeping removed bedding from our room and failed to replace it, and when we raised it with the manager, he accused us of stealing it. The plunge pools are also very misleading in the marketing photos. Rather than overlooking a luxury setting, ours looked directly onto a car park and supermarket/high street. The location itself was also a huge disappointment.

Olympia on reception was absolutely brilliant, recommended restaurants and gave directions. Room was spacious and clean, perfect for an overnight stay before flight

From the moment you're greeted for check-in, to the moment you check-out, it's nothing short of 5 stars. The staff are extremely helpful and polite, always catering for your needs which is what you expect from a resort like Amirandes. We came here for our minimoon and we loved it. The main restaurant for buffet and dinner were very good! Shout out to the person making omelettes every morning, they were delicious. We never had any issues getting a sunbed near the outdoor pool, and overall it was such a pleasant stay :)
