Absolutely amazing hotel. Went with my wife and 6yr old daughter for October half term. Every element of the hotel was great, staff cleanliness, location right on a beautiful pebble beach with beach bar/snack bar just set back from the loungers. The beach itself was great for snorkelling too. Saw many fish, including a few special ones. Including a puffer, a young moray eel and grouper. Also a couple of people had spotted a lion fish out by a rock 10meters out. Water Sparta can also be accessed from the beach and a couple of boat tours to Lindos which pick up straight from the beach. There’s not many other places nearby to go to apart from a couple of bars/restaurants over the road but you won’t really need to leave unless like me you want to catch the footie/rugby. Then it’s just 2 minutes to a bar that has the sport on. Also a couple of shops there with lower prices than the on site shop. Food was great every day and plentiful. Various theme nights through the week and always found food for our fussy 6yr old daughter. The wine was always flowing with very attentive table service. The staff especially the porter who showed us to our room and was helpful in directing me to places locally. All bar staff were pleasant even when things got busy. The entertainment team…. Well they were amazing. The first night I thought let’s avoid the shows as other hotels tend to have rubbish shows.. well I’m soo sorry I did as the second night we gave it a try for our daughter and we all where laughing the whole night. Something for all ages after the mini disco. So glad we were there for the last week before the animation team went home for the winter. They are a credit to the hotel!! We really could not fault anything! I even found myself trying to think of areas than could be improved and really did struggle. The only thing minor negative was the difficulty we found getting into any of the A la carte restaurants that we were allowed to book for no additional charge but all where fully booked on arrival. We did manage to get into the beach bbq which was an extra charge but well worth it! Just go very very hungry!! As there is soo much meat you will want to devour! Thank you to the staff/hotel for such an amazing holiday. We hope to return again this year pocket money permitting.
