  : Great beach and pool facilities. Staff were lovely especially Andreas at the bar and Andy.
  : Needs a lot of maintenance. Rooms were no where near 4 star. Our door didnt ever lock you could just push it open from the outside, our air con broke on our last night. The beds were very firm and no option for different pillows. On our first day we came back to find our key card removed from the outlet which powered our air con and electricity outlets. This is apparantely due to needing to meet EU energy ratings but this hasnt been the case anywhere else. Its unpleasant to come back to your room after a long day and have it be boiling hot and none of our devices charged. They told us an alarm notifies them if someone left their key card in when not in the room. This is a bit odd and made us wonder how they even knew. Hotel restaurant closed during the afternoon which isnt ideal either. And breakfast was a solid 2/5 at best

  : The facilities were great, the staff were amazing, the opportunity to use sun beds across the road on the beach, the parking, close to Naoussa without being in the hustle and bustle. Loved it.
  : Room a little tired but didnt bother us at all

  : The hotel room was big with a big modern bathroom. The beach right outside was a big plus and the town of Noussa was lovely. The hotel staff helped us organise taxis when required.
  : Very outdated - really not what we expected from a 4 star hotel. Breakfast was very poor. There was no service at all on the beach - no one to order drinks from or take food orders. The hotel charged 2 for fresh beach towels which is not what youd expect from a 4 star hotel. Probably a 4 star hotel in its prime 15/20 years ago but certainly not a 4 star hotel today and not worth what we paid.

  : Close to Naousa, located in front of the beach.
  : Dated furniture and decor, not well maintained, impolite receptionist.

  : The bedrooms were a good size and the pool setting was beautiful. The rooms were very clean with fresh towels every day. Our room also faced the sea which was across a small road from the hotel. It was a 10 minute walk into the village which was perfect for us. The staff in reception and at the pool bar were friendly and very helpful.
  : The bathroom was a little small and the fridge could have been bigger to store larger bottles of water. The hot elements of breakfast were never hot as there was no warming lamp or hot plate. It would be better to stay with the cold selection as that was excellent or eggs on order e.g omelettes, poached etc. The tables were not laid at breakfast and I had to collect my own cutlery, salt and pepper, napkins etc. and plates only cleared once we left the tables which was a bit odd and felt like a cafeteria rather than a hotel. I would have preferred to listen to Greek music around the pool as it was too British/American and I could have been anywhere in the world. We were not charged for sun beds on the beach but werent advised they were free to hotel guests which was a little confusing as the staff at the pool bar told us they were 25 per set when we asked. Pool/beach towels were provided but there was a charge to have them changed/washed which was very strange. Any hotel Ive stayed at before has provided this service complimentary and whilst I understand the crisis with energy prices, the bathroom towels were changed everyday, which in many hotels is only on demand due to environmental impact so this would be a better approach for the pool/beach towels.

  : Loved the property, private beach and facilities. Staff was great and helpful.
  : No iron available in rooms. They gave me a steam iron and I burnt a hole in my shorts. That is the only reason why I gave it a 9 out of 10.
