A great hotel. I only had bed and breakfast so I can’t comment on the rest of the food but I thought it was very good and the selection of some of the items varied slightly from day to day. The room I had was clean and the pool always had plenty of sun beds available in both sun and shaded areas, at least when I went in August. The hotel and pool areas on the whole were very clean and the staff were friendly as well.
The only slight negative was the extra cost to use the air conditioner in the room. Albeit small, it was unexpected.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience.
On the positive side, the breakfast was generous and tasty – I especially appreciated the variety, although I’d suggest adding avocado to the menu. The coffee was surprisingly good. The reception and kitchen staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
However, there were several aspects that left a negative impression. There are some odd rules – you’re not allowed to take your coffee on the terrace, and you’re only permitted to consume drinks purchased from the hotel bar. If you don’t comply, you may be met with disapproving looks from the staff.
Air conditioning is not included and costs €8 per night. I also paid an extra €40 per night for a room upgrade, and that’s where the issues began. The hotel presents a very different image online compared to reality. Most of the standard rooms are dormitory-style, with tiny bathrooms that include an outdated tub. Only one bathroom photo from the standard double room is shown online – the rest are from superior rooms, which feels misleading.
Cleanliness was not up to expectations. I found hair in the bathroom, visible dust in the room, and while the bed linens and towels were clean, they were noticeably yellowed and worn.
The pool area also needs attention – it clearly requires renovation, and the smaller pool had greenish water, which was not inviting.
Lastly, while the reception and kitchen staff were kind and professional, the bar staff seemed bored and amused themselves by gossiping about guests – something we overheard multiple times, which was quite uncomfortable.
Overall, the hotel has potential, but there is definitely room for improvement in terms of cleanliness, transparency, and customer experience.

Really enjoyed my stay at Happy Days Hotel overall. Nice location, pool area was well kept and always managed to get a sun lounger or comfy bean bag under the tree. The room was very pleasant but found the glass door and wall a little strange as offers no privacy at all.
The website and reviews I read before said you have to pay for the aircon in the room but we were given it included with the room which was a nice touch but don't know how often they do this however.
The food was ok and we had breakfast every day but it wasn't particularly varied but enough there to keep me satisfied. Only had one evening meal as we like to explore different places but again was ok.
A couple of slightly negative points were when it reached 10am the air con was turned off in the food hall and felt like you were being hurried out or sit and be hot. No sitting in the bar area unless you brought a drink and we were asked to move as we didn't want to buy a drink. Air con in the room only went to 25* which never felt cool enough.

The hotel was absolutely stunning, rooms were consistently cleaned. The hotel had multiple sun-beds and even a comfy seated area in the shade under a tree. Very relaxed and chilled out. All staff was incredibly helpful and kind, no ask was too much for them, Dimitri, George and Endri were wonderful, funny and always smiling, very easy to talk to! They made our stay even better than it already was. Dimitra at reception was very kind and welcoming, helping us with any questions we had. We would and have recommended this place to anyone and everyone we can, looking to book next year!

Of course Is for you to decide, but this are some problem we face in the hotel:
- the room you see in the picture is the upgraded room that you can have buy pay €40 a night on top of what you already pay, otherwise the real room you will have have a very very small bathroom almost impossible to use.
- the WiFi in the room is not working
- the tv is 12” too small to see anything
- no AC in the hotel
- in the room you can have AC by paying 9€ a day
- if you are vegetarian not so many options
- the location is not ideal as you need a car to good in the beautiful beaches that are in the opposite part of the island
- inside the bathroom we found cockroaches
- there is a smell coming from the drain water in the toilet
- if you pay for the dinner the drinking water is not included
- to have the towels for the pool you need to pay
- the cleaning is approximately
- staff very good in general but one guy in particular is bossies and rude
But the pool is wonderful.
