Lovely hotel but not beachfront
Geplaatst op 14 jul. 2022 op Hotels
Lovely hotel situated on clifftop with spectacular views from every aspect . Our room was a superior double which was smaller than we expected but we had everything needed to enjoy our holidays . The bathroom was very nice with very large bathtub and shower with lots of complimentary toiletries ! Towels were changed daily and bedding every two days ! Staff especially in the restaurant and bar were really helpful and friendly . The setting is so peaceful and tranquil a perfect place to chill and relax . A few things to note - this is not a beachfront hotel situated 660 meters from center of Afitos - there are 170 steps down to the beachfront and the climb back up was horrendous in the heat . The beach is not very nice , we found much nicer beaches nearby . The walk into Afitos took us 30 minutes- I would recommend a taxi back after dark . Also the electric supply to the room is activated by putting your key card into the control slot at the door - when you leave the room there is no electricity to keep the fridge working , we spoke to reception who arranged a special key to leave in slot to keep fridge on whilst we were out . The hotel offers a transfer service to and from the airport , which they advised was a cost of €100 each way , we used our usual taxi firm who only charge €80 Euro each way and it turned out it was the same taxi the hotel uses for transfers ! Overall we enjoyed our holiday - we came home all chilled and relaxed
