We are two experienced travelers around the world. We booked this hotel for two nights and we expected a great experience taking into account the price. After those nights, our impression is truly different, and the hotel is absolutlely overpriced and overrated. The place is normal, you do not have a luggage service or parking service, the room (mayordoma) was a cave with no natural light, the cleaning service so poor (there were rests of meals from rooms and at swimming pool for a lot of hours), there was not bar service at the pool, the pool was very damaged (need maintenance)... everything so poor. We have been in 3 and 4 star hotels with a better service.

Overcooked fish and shellfish, undercooked (raw) pork, “meat raviolis” were pieces of pasta with prefab meatballs, lemon custard with chemical taste and a highly unappetising consistency. To find this “level” of cooking is overall highly exceptional. Service and setting of the restaurant were good, but if the food isn’t .....

The Greek salad was nog Greek, because of a few pieces of fetacheese on a very dry green salad, without tomatos and onions. Like a cheap restaurant, you have to eat the maincourse with the same knife and fork, you user at the entree.
