Recently back from a big family holiday, 11 of us including 3 under 18s & 2 over 70s, 4 rooms between us all. The rooms were clean & modern, only 1 room had the minifridge restocked each day which wasn't great. The 2 x sun rooms were small but ample, the family room was a decent size, the duplex apartment was huge but the double bed needs to be upstairs & the twin beds downstairs. Do not book a duplex apartment if you have young children as the stairs are so steep they are dangerous. The pools area were extremely clean & tidy due to the 'no food' policy, the pool bar was well stocked & we found many branded drinks included but a bit understaffed in the daytime. I also enjoyed the cocktails. My teenage sons enjoyed the gym & the pools. Never had any issues getting sunbeds every for such a large group of us! Pool towels changed daily The waterpark was brilliant, a walk up the hill or a quick buggy ride, also tennis courts & crazy golf all included. It wasn't overly busy so no queues on the slides. Snack bar up there does hotdogs etc again all very clean. The a la cartes were 'all booked up' on our day of arrival for the next 7 days, this was disappointing. Luckily part of our group arrived a bit earlier so managed to get us into thr Greek one which was amazing- our best meal. We were there for the opening night of the new beach BBQ which we also enjoyed & would recommend. The food choices in general were really good, always fresh & a good choice for breakfast lunch & dinner. The chefs work so hard & I did not get bored of the food like I normally do with AI. We had no troubles getting large table for us all or smaller ones close together. Steps - unless you love climbing steps then you probably need to really consider if a hotel in a cliff side is suitable for your parties needs. We are all able bodied but omg what a work out!! If you have pushchairs or a disability I wouldn't recommend this hotel purely as its made out of steps. Steps to every room, steps round the pool - each one of us had a fall & many people were on crutches or bandaged up from slips & falls. You do get used to it but it's not ideal. The train was not working whilst we were there, the buggys were good though. The hotel beach area is good with reasonable priced watersports, we did jet skis, sofa & paragliding. Plenty of sunbeds. The hotel is not near anything so you will not find anything close by. We went on a boat trip to Dia Islsnd to break up the week, this was a highlight for us. Absolutely stunning area. Was it perfect for our needs - yes! We had a wonderful time. Would I visit again - no I don't miss the steps 🤣
