Had a week all-inclusive here at the end of September - the hotel was great. We chose to go on the off-season to avoid big families and queues in the water park and this turned out perfectly.
Food and drink was good, decent standard beer on tap and selection of spirits. Cocktails were a bit more of a mixed bag, but for me they were a nice extra, mostly on the beer and rum. Foodwise, there was a decent selection which changes up every day. Fair bit of the time the fresh grilled stuff could be a bit dry, but the big plate dishes like their stewed pork was delicious. The deserts are extremely cream and pudding based, but there'd be baklava and brownies occassionally
We were given an apartment room, which was extremely spacious - too big for us in a way since we weren't spending a lot of time in it, but the rooms were clean and chilled from the aircon.
The waterpark is so good, Hydrotube is amazing - if you hit the right speed you get airborne twice in there. The staff there are all really cool. We didn't try the food or drink because the hotel was right there. Cute little gift shop on-site with some nice Corfu & Greek things, helpful because of the locatione.
For the negatives:
We didn't really engage with the entertainment. We stayed by the wave pool, while the main pool had the actual stuff happening in it, and in the evenings, we found the sky bar to be really nice until the kid's club began - the music is way too loud up there, and it's pretty offputting. For the actual entertainment, it was hard to figure out what it was going to be. There's a board outside the restaurant but it didn't seem to be updated.
Location-wise it isn't the greatest - very isolated if you're not driving. They offer shuttle busses to the town and nearby beach, but these are limited both in capacities and times - for the town, you'd probably want more time, for the beach, possibly less. This is barely a negative really though because the public busses run very regular from right outside, and are only 2.50 euros a ticket. Also you know what's around there when you book so if you're upset by that why did you even book this hotel.
Last negative, and again not one for much control - the wasps. There are so many wasps here, which is to be expected, hot country and all. They aren't aggressive but they are annoying, so find a way to cover your drinks and eventually they'll go. This isn't helped by the hotel guests leaving all their rubbish around constantly.
There are also 3 cats on site - the grey one is very friendly, the calico one is pretty friendly, the ginger one sucks

A good base if you want to spend the week at the resort with plenty to do and good entertainment. The food was nice and a variety of it, the problem was the seating. If you go in a big group do not expect to sit together and your not allowed to move tables to accommodate. The room service is not always adequate, with no clean towels given, our group had to ask for clean towels even after putting the sign on for a room clean. The resort appears to over accommodate for the size of it and often, not just at dinner but in the evenings there were no tables to sit at for the entertainment. However, the staff are brilliant during the day and evenings and this includes the JOKER and the DJ during the day. I have visited now and wouldn't come back, but having said that I never visit the same place twice but it is a good resort for young families.

My family and I have come here a handful of times during the years. We've always really enjoyed our stay, but this year was even more pleasent.
First thing we noticed were the renovations made to the facility. Since our last stay, a lot of changes were made and it really upgraded the experince.
The rooms were not only modern while very cozy, but also very clean.
The food is quite good and the choices are diverse so I reckon there's something for everyone.
The staff were fantastic, very kind and helpful.
The enviroment felt very safe and welcoming.
Lastly, the waterpark is always very fun. There's a very wide variaty, from kids, teens and adults, so no matter the age I think they're fun for all.
All in all my family and I really like this place and would 100% come back. I highly recommend it for families with kids.

Brilliant place for the family and couples.
Great facilities with a huge wave pool, a children's pool plus a normal pool. But the winner is having access to aqualand. With access from the hotel to aqualand makes your stay even more adventurous. Tackle the rapids and flumes. There is something for everyone here.
Staff at the hotel are friendly and most understand English. We have really enjoyed our stay here at aqualand resort. Would definitely recommend to anyone who's looking for that bit extra from your holiday.

Unfortunately, we did not enjoy our stay at the hotel. There were ants in the room, and the air conditioner was not working properly — it ran at the same temperature all the time, and we were cold. We had to keep getting up to turn it off manually because there was no remote control.
The food was the same every day, and the meat was always burnt. There were hardly any fruits — only watermelon and unripe green melon. All the peaches and pineapples were hard and unripe. In such a sunny country, I expected more vegetables and fruits.
The hotel has two pools, one with waves. We were disappointed because the pools are closed until 10 a.m., so swimming in the morning is not allowed. The wave pool closes at 5 p.m., but during our stay, it was always closed half an hour earlier and opened half an hour later than stated. I’m someone who likes to swim early in the morning when the sun isn't too hot, but I was forced to swim after 10 a.m. in the heat. I’ve never encountered such rules before. It was awful — especially since there are no benches around the hotel grounds to sit and relax while walking. In fact, there’s nowhere to walk at all. Once the pool is closed, there’s nothing to do. There are no places to visit outside the hotel either. The sea is a 25-minute drive away.
Overall, I cannot recommend this hotel.
Although, the nearby water park was amazing.
It’s better to find accommodation nearby and just visit the water park.
Despite all the negatives, I must say that the staff was very polite and friendly.
