White Palace Studios

Overall enjoyed the stay , room was clean with essentials and host would respond when needed(booked through airbnb), only let down was the hosts of the other studios were not welcoming to us and were particularly rude on occasions , when we first tried to check in she was very rude saying we aren’t her guests and she can’t provide help to us in anyway as we aren’t staying in her rooms .It is understandable that we are not her guests but there is no harm in smiling and welcoming people . Both ladies (Patricia and ketsa ) made me and my fellow friends feel uncomfortable as they were so friendly to everyone else but us .After reading other reviews we have realised it isn’t just us that feel this way and action should be taken. Hotel to the right of whitepalace studios are lovely and very helpful, as they booked us a taxi to the port and stored our luggage before check-in and after check-out.

These apartments are a hidden gem! We had an amazing time there. Spotlessly clean with absolutely lovely people working there. We felt so comfortable and welcomed. We will be back next year for sure! Ketsa and Patricia were amazing as was our lovely cleaner. See you all soon!!

I and my husband chosen White Palace Studios for our Honeymoon. We wanted something simple but cozy, having good access to the city centre and beaches. This Studio is having all that and more. The owner and all staff were really friendly and easy to help with all the questions. Everyday we got so many good recommedations what to visit, where to eat, how to find one or another place and it really made our time much more relaxing and memorable. Thank you for champagne and chocolate, it really made our day!

Ketsa is super friendly and helpful! The studios are very nice, comfortable and with balcony and access a nice pool area. Thé studios are located a few minutes from the bus stop, and close to the beach and Main street with restaurants and bars.

Arrival - we arrived around midnight, maybe later. Reception was closed however there was a note for us that outlined how to access room, Wi-Fi code etc. All very clear and appreciated. Location - a bit further than the stated distance to the beach but it wasn’t too bad. Brilliant location for plenty of restaurants, shops and bars. There’s a supermarket next door - really well stocked. Pool - from memory had just 8 sunbeds along with a variety of tables and chairs. There were 2 days we couldn’t get sun loungers - no issue as we went next door, and they made us very welcome. It was nice also to have some company - it was busier than our place. Pool bar - this consisted of a fridge with a small selection of soft drinks, water and lager; and a shelf behind the small Reception desk with some bottles of spirits. I understand that of course the host wants clients to use the bar and not bring anything in to the pool, I do however think the range available needs to be increased. Room - ok this was beyond basic however exactly as advertised. There was a terrible mouldy / damp type smell really evident every time we entered the room however we must have gotten used to it as it wasn’t as obvious after a while. The toilet was really tiny but shower nice and powerful with warm water; the sink tap didn’t have cold water - not sure what that was about. It was in the main clean enough. I had said that my daughter and I were travelling so was surprised when our room had a small double bed and not 2 single beds that I seen in many of the nearby rooms. The bed was brilliant - really firm and very comfortable. Spare pillows also which was ideal. Lighting could have been better and there was only 2 power points. The power point was nowhere near the mirror to dry hair - I had to remove it from the wall to make it possible to see my hair whilst drying it. The hairdryer was brilliant though and saved us taking our own. We didn’t use any of the crockery / utensils etc however the very few things that were there weren’t ‘a set’ - all a but disjointed and of varying quality / age. Plenty of storage space - drawers, hangers wardrobe space etc. Cleaning - we were there Monday from around midnight to Friday around 8pm albeit we paid to keep the room until the Saturday. The cleaner was in twice that we could see. Fresh Towels once and bed changed once (well the bottom sheet was changed, top sheets were left for us to do ourselves) - for a 5 night rental I’d expect more. Overall - the host was helpful in that she arranged private transfers for us to / from airport. She didn’t take any deposit in advance - we were travelling within a week or so of booking. She was also very responsive when I asked questions via whatsapp which I appreciated. I did sense some tension between herself and the host next door and while I’m sure it’ll Be put down to a joke / banter, there were comments made about us going to their pool on occasion (despite nothing b

The room was extremely clean and the pool was lovely although we didn't spend a lot of time as we went to the beach each day. Ketsa was super welcoming and friendly and so helpful. She even arranged our transfers to and from the airport which were perfect. Location was a little further out from the town, maybe a mile to the beach, but that was fine for us as we were happy to walk.
