9.6/10 Exceptional! (61 reviews)

Brilliant resort, well catered for everyone with kids and for those who love sports. Food on ala carte restaurants is amazing and very good quality. Waterpark is brilliant and there are plenty of pool optipns so it doenst feel crowded. The only downsides are: 1. the beach is small and it gets busy quickly..Also, it is sandy beach, but half way through the water, there are large sharp stones at the bottom so you need to be careful. 2. There isnt much to see around the hotel within a walking distance but Herosnisos is 10 minutes by bus. 3. Water and pools are very cold in October unless it ia over 30 degree outside.
