It's not bad if you get a decent price and know what you're getting. There are some brilliant things about the place and some that are much weaker. The setting itself is stunning, perfect location. Can't get much better than these views. The pools are great too, and the whole place is quite idyllic. Visually, it's brilliant. It's also more like a little village than a hotel complex. Love the private beach, very convenient and you can see over to Turkey. It is shingle and you WILL want beach shoes! Bit of a piss take that they charge for sunbeds, but you can always just take your own towel or blanket to lie on. Food is only ok, breakfast is good but the other meals not amazing. I think it's cooked for a German palate maybe, as they were the biggest group at the resort. On our last night, the staff were having a party and the buffet was more Greek, presumably as that's what they like to eat themselves. It was much better! They do always have chips and ice cream for the fussy eaters at least. Drinks selection on the all inclusive is VERY limited. This may or may not bother you. I thought the lack of real coke was a bit crap, I'd expect better than own brand cola. Didn't mind otherwise. The little tavern next to the pool is a brilliant idea. The resort closes on 31st October and I really wouldn't recommend staying in the final few days of that, as we did. They didn't have any entertainment for the last 2 nights, the place was incredibly quiet and generally it had a half ****d end of season feel. The staff were also having an end of season party on our final night, which was in slightly poor taste bearing in mind they weren't bothering to provide any entertainment for the guests that night. There's not a lot of kids activities. The kids disco every night was great and they all loved it, but why did it only ever last 20 minutes? The entertainment (animation) team were fab but they weren't doing enough. There was nothing really on for kids during the day either, other than one yoga session. The cats got a bit much by the end. They have about 8 living in the resort and being looked after, which I think is a sensible idea as it's the sort of place where you'd need to keep vermin under control. Lots of guests loved them too, they were pretty cute. But in our last few days, there were so few people in the dining room that they kept coming in and none of the staff shooed them out. They have a teeny little lido which is great for toddlers. The rooms are a significant weakness. I'd read the reviews about them being old fashioned, but hadn't really appreciated this goes beyond being a bit shabby. A lot of them have crap air con. In many of the suites, it's two rooms but there's only air con in one, usually a very old one. They REALLY need to update this. There are also several blocks with no lift. The place is very clean. Kids playpark isn't bad, better than some resorts I've seen. Stuff for older ones as well. Worth taking your own beach towels
