Ariadne Beach Hotel

Having been recommended this place by a friend 'Mr Pete', my wife and I arrived at 2am in the morning. We were shown to a lovely room, 50 paces from the beach, the location of this place is second to none. The staff across the place (I could name all of them) are super friendly, attentive and ensure the place is kept immaculately. The food was well prepared, not the biggest area to select it perhaps, but not an issue. Predominantly the clientele were from mainland Europe which was great , it was like a holiday of old. It is effectively a community and such a good vibe from several bars shops and restaurants around it...In 35 years of holidaying abroad I can say, in some wonderful places, we will definitely return..100% Thank you to you all there, see you again.❤️ Mark and Sharon.

Very nice hotel, located between sea and main road of beautiful village of Stalida. One can walk along the road visiting cute shops and restaurants. We loved the location and the village very much. Hotel is not very big, few three stories buildings and it was full. No option to upgrade a room, what was unfortunate. We had view to the parking and bins (114), although the hotel has very nice views and gardens. Pool is good, beach is lovely. Big waves and warm. Kids spent hours there. Paying for the sun beds is a good idea. No need to rush there early in the morning to reserve a sun bed. Pool guy will bring you as many as you wish, 2,5 € for each per day. Breakfast was fine, no long lines. Dinner was included but I prefer to eat in different local taverns.

Great little find , adults only hotel , rooms are bungalow style, so no noise above or below spotlessly clean , beds very comfortable , all facilities are fantastic , restaurant great selection of food , never went without a meal, there are options of board to to suit everyone, 2 pool areas, they don't have an animation team it is literally a quiet chilled hotel ,the bar in the evening was located at the front of the hotel so you can just sit and watch the world go by, or join in the dancing , a short walk into the main town or get a taxi if you can't walk it , all staff very helpful and chatty, the rooms are on an incline so if infirm or have walking issues request a low room

The hotel was well overdue for an update and is looking tired with many areas requiring attention if it is to regain and improve on what proved to be a disappointing visit for my wife and myself. Many things fell below the standard expected for a four star hotel offering an all exclusive experience.

I cannot compliment this hotel enough, the staff were so friendly and helpful, the room was lovely and comfortable. As I am a primary school teacher it was great that it was child free. The food (we had half board) was absolutely stunning and made even more so because there was not a single British option!!! All the food was authentic Greek or Mediterranean cuisine and tasted divine! The bar staff were equally as helpful and everyone made this the best 60th birthday present ever.

Didn’t stay at the hotel, but used the sun beds & parasols daily (have to pay), the sunbed man comes round to move things for you and collect payment, he is great. Food in the beach bar was excellent, staff were friendly, great variety of beverages, good price. Service slower in busy times but the surroundings are great and relaxing. Lovely pool.

we just got back from this beautiful hotel,the only negative was paying for sunbeds 2.50 euros per day for each person ,would of been nice to have cushions on them for comfort.The hotel ,grounds ,resturants ,the surrounding areas were spotless .The staff at ariadne were very kind ,helpful and nothing was to much trouble . we met a lovely member of staff who worked so hard his name was dimmy he always says good morning and always had alot of time to speak as did all the other staff ,Our room was spot on which made our holiday even more spectacular, our room was 204 ground floor looking straight out to sea our rooms were spotless and the cleaners were great too,there was no rush for sunbeds the grass areas was spotless too ,plenty of places to sunbathe and no over crowding lots of space , contenental breakfast was good for most and evening buffets was lovely .All in all a fantastic holiday with lovely friends in a great location with amenties on your door step ,thankyou ariadne for a fab holiday

Returned for my birthday and had a great holiday. Arrived about 11-00pm and check in was excellent. We were directed to the pool bar where we received a cold plate buffet for our evening meal, this was excellent. This is a family run hotel and you are treated as if you are part of their family. The meals were very good and plenty of food. The waiting staff very friendly and efficient. The pool bar is very good and located near the beach, a place to relax both daytime and night time. They also serve excellent meals at very reasonable prices during the lunch period. The rooms are cleaned daily to a very high spec and bedding and towels changed every 2 days. Friends we have met from other countries were there at the same time. The hotel was full so says something for how good it is. Once again we were not disappointed and can highly recommend the hotel.
