Last Minute Holidays Leaving This Week

Amina Hewings

Love this hotel, we will be coming again. Me and my husband loved our holiday and I think the hotel was a big play in this. We were amazed by the staff and facilities. It's very clean and the food is very good. You'll never get bored of the food. They had different themes for dinner every day. The staff are always polite and helpful. Entertainment was very good. Very child friendly. Indoor pool, Spa and gym available to use. Private beach. Security was very good.

We had a great time at this hotel and was very impressed. Our stay from start to finish the staff were very friendly and looked after us well. Value for money you cannot go wrong, they have all the amenities including a 24 hour bar, gym, sauna and steam room available. We booked 3 separate rooms which they gave us all next to each other which was a nice gesture. Rooms were very clean and everything was as it should be, rooms decorated and finished to a nice standard. They have plenty of entertainment and activities, games for adults and kids to play as well as a kids club so parents can enjoy time to themselves if wanted. A special thanks to Anil (waiter on roller skates) who was a great waiter and lovely host for us, always smiling and happy to help. The only thing I could pick on was that they should have more than 2 irons and a stand in each room or available separately for a 200 room hotel, other than this everything was perfect. Thanks again to all the staff.

I would give it a solid 4. I chose this hotel for my birthday and spent there a week. First impression was awful because reception was not welcoming whatsoever, not even a smile and yes I did expect at least a genuine happy birthday from you guys. I was working in hospitality for longer than 8 years and never seen reception staff being so nonchalant. There is only one gentleman who really genuinely tried. I was surprised by the treatment I’ve received in Spa. Angelika, bless your heart!Thank you for being so lovely all the way through our stay. Likely I wasn’t interacting with reception at all and avoided at all costs so the rest of my holiday was fabulous. We got a room facing another hotel and got really upset but then realized that only our rooms facing sunsets. Beautiful hotel and absolutely fantastic food. Guys, I can’t stress enough how happy I was everyday with the selection and those waffles on the beach took my heart. Animation team was the best I’ve seen in my life, really appreciate every day interaction and want to come back there again to see you guys! Evenings was full of beautiful show or DJ sets with fireworks. The hotel was full of people with kids but I haven’t been disturbed even once because they have been sent to the kids room or spent majority of the time on the beach and the best part is that pear can give you privacy and peace far from family’s. Overall it was really great holiday and please do go and play darts near pool, you have a great chance to meet the best people from different countries and then have a wholesome and meaningful conversations with actually very good quality beer at the bar up until five am haha Please avoid vodka and tequila in this hotel-poison… If you need atm please go out and then get straight to the main road, then turn left and walk down the road for about 5 minutes, you will see 3 different atm with good rates on the left hand side from you. defo recommend and thinking of coming back.

Just came back from a 5 day stay at this hotel with my mum and sister. It was a very clean, grand and deluxe hotel with many amenities. CONS: - entertainment team was not good. They weren’t personable and didn’t get everyone involved in activities( I didn’t see many occurring). They need to work on getting people involved and recognising guests. - Food was too repetitive. Even on different themed nights, the food was the same. Most was tasty but breakfast was boring so thre needs to be some variety with all foods at different times of the day and the desserts. Also, the “snack time” should not be a repeat of the food that was served at dinner. PROS: - The bar service. The iced coffees, drinks and bottles at all time were amazing, especially when it’s so hot outside. Only thing I wish there was more non alcoholic cocktails. - The hotel was clean and beautiful - The security was amazing especially the man with white hair, who always used to park my car. - The rooms were always cleaned well and with great additions - All hotel staff tried to help at all times. - Good location for public transport but I would recommend taxis and cars if trvavlling to main Antalya. - Shops around hotel have good prices and are friendly. Overall, a really wonderful stay that we enjoyed and can’t wait to be back!!!

Flawless top to bottom. Greeted on arrival at 2am helped with baggage, room upgraded and food/drink available at 2am for guests who arrive late. Hotel was extremely clean, from pool lobbys, beach, sun deck, rooms. Food had SO MUCH variety more than i could count as well as desserts. Unlimited drinks all day, streetfood bar next to beach downstairs. Paradise level experience. Service from team was excellent, all very friendly prompt and so so respectful. I genuinely couldnt fault this hotel even if i tried. Ahmet needs a raise, works very hard and service is amazing- true gentlemen

Lovely place - we stayed in one of the corner apartments with a view of the sea. The staff in reception were great, very courteous, as was the receptionist at the gym. Pool was nice but during the day it gets busy with children, couples and families. The animation staff were great to entertain people by the pool with various competitions including bingo. Housekeeping staff came to the apartments every three days. Our apartment was well kitted out with a full sized fridge freezer, cooker and oven. A cupboard just off the kitchen had an ironing board and iron. The coffee maker was easy enough to use. I loved having my cuppa on the balcony. Having two bathrooms (one ensuite) was an unexpected bonus. The area was a bit hilly so the shuttle bus service was very welcome for the return journey in the evening. I would love to come back.

Just returned from a week here and was a bit nervous after reading some of the reviews but i didn't need to be! Our first time in Tenerife and therefore obviously this hotel. Loved it and would happily come back! The room was great, hotel staff very friendly and although we don't have kids we enjoyed watching the animation team entertaining them (and the adults) - the opening song will be stuck in our heads for days! :-) Didn't eat at the hotel so can't comment on the quality of food but the drinks from the pool bar were a reasonable price. Location wise it is at the top of a series of steep hills, the last one being the worst but this is what gives it its great views and prominent position. There is a free shuttle bus to the front and back at various times of the day and taxi's are very easy to get and very cheap. There are a few good bars and restaurants within a 10-15 minute walk without needing to be in the centre of Los Cristianos but that is also easy enough to get to. All in all a great holiday and we're likely to return!

joe chatfield

Stayed here last week, loved the hotel. Location was perfect for us, not in the hustle and bustle of the beach fronts but plenty of decent bars and places to eat within a 10 mins walk. Taxi to the front was inexpensive so wasn't an issue being a bit further away from the sea. I wouldn't say it was a 4 star hotel based on finishing touches like bathroom sealant and wobbly toilet seat but I would definitely happily stay there again. Staff were friendly and helpful and pools were clean and also cleaned regularly. My only bad point would be the hotel bar food. It was overpriced and I wouldn't feed it to my dog. Burger fell apart and tasted of nothing, chips were barely edible and the onion rings, well I have no idea you could even make them that badly 🤣 But overall happy with my stay, would recommend and would stay again, just wouldn't eat there 👍

Scott Derham

This is a good hotel but needs a few simple inprovements to be great. Air con needs looking at doesnt work asked for it to be looked at was told it was sorted but no improvement. Also the orher improvement after speaking to other familys people we not happy with the food selection for children! Ypu need to privide actual meals not just sweets. You privide chips but ideally you need kore such as pizza and nuggets plus pasta that is actually cooked. Childrwn dont like cruncy pasta

john wardrop

We had a great time spending 10 days at the Hollywood Mirage. Staff were very good, welcoming and helpful. You get a small cleaning pack containing washing up liquid and cloths which is a nice touch. Rooms were clean and spacious. Our room had a spiral staircase up to the bedroom., it wasn’t the widest but it was fine for us. We chose to use pool 2 out of the three we could choose from. It gave as the most shade during the hottest times of the day. We will look to come back and stay in the future.

The room I was in was okay, the bed was comfortable. Had a kettle, a toaster and a microwave alongside the basic stuff in the kitchen. The sea is pretty near, you can walk there in about 15 minutes or so, which is great. The breakfast was okay, though the scrambled eggs and omelet tasted like dishwashing soap. There were loads of tasty pastries though. What I didn’t like was the long evening concerts - it was hard to fall asleep at night until the concert ended at about 23:30 or later. It didn’t always bother me that much though and could fall asleep after some time of turning in my bed. Otherwise, the hotel was okay, pretty good even.

Gordon Saunders

Hotel Really nice hotel to stay at. Only a 20 minute walk to the beach. Located right next to a massive lake, so beware of mosquitoes during the day and especially at night! It has its own Supermarket so you can buy essentials on site. Pools Both adult only pool and children pool spot on with plenty of sun beds to enjoy. Room The rooms are spacious and very pleasant. The beds are great, pillows not so great. Complete with lounge area, small kitchen with two sets of patio doors bring you out onto the balcony (from lounge and bedroom). Entertainment Bingo, live music and entertainment. The artists they had when I was there were superb. Bar and restaurant Great selection of food and drink for everyone. The breakfast buffet was amazing. Juice and coffee machines with a great selection. Staff and Service All staff were superb and are a credit to their hotel. Best service I’ve experienced.

We had a lovely stay late September. The hotel is clean, rooms well equipped, and the food was very good. I liked the themed nights for food, but there was always a good choice of other foods too. We went all inclusive and the drinks were all good with generous measures of spirits. However my personal opinion on the few cocktails were they were pretty awful. All pre made and so sugary and didn't taste at all like they should. Cocktails aren't served until after 7pm. The entertainment at the hotel was some of the best I've seen put on by a hotel, with different visiting acts every evening, all of which were very good. There was also bingo with good cash prizes. We didn't travel with children but there is a kids club for children over 5 years. Nothing for the little ones that I saw. There are many pools, all were spotlessly clean. There were pools of various depths, suitable for children and non swimmers, another deep pool 1.6m and also an adult only pool. There was plenty of sun beds available every day we were there. The hotel is about a 20 minute walk from the town which has a long strip of shops and restaurants all aimed at tourists. The closest beach is there, and the hotel puts on a shuttle bus, from the front of the hotel, to the beach for those who don't want to walk. The bus service in town is ridiculous. Every bus stop had at least 50 people waiting and buses were going past full and not stopping, and this was late September. A taxi into C'an Picafort was about 14 euros and certainly preferable to trying to get on a bus! Trips out can be arranged by the staff at reception and car hire from the separate desk in the hotel foyer. Pool towels can be collected from reception, they charge you 10 euros deposit. There is a safe in the room which is chargeable at 3 euros a day plus a refundable deposit. The lifts in the hotel were having some problems when we were there and some were out of order but there was always a couple working. Our room was round the back of the hotel, we had a side view of the lake to the left but also over what I'm guessing is the back of the kitchens as we heard bottles being emptied into the dumpster at 8am. Other family had emailed the hotel in advance and asked for a pool view which was given. Those rooms also overlook the stage though and entertainment doesn't finish until 11pm and people stay drinking until 1pm so expect some noise on that side which may be a problem if you've children in the room. On our side of the hotel there was no noise . We were in the 320s. We saw no trouble at all with protests against tourists. Local people were friendly and shops and restaurants along the strip in Muro welcoming.

Alison Whitehead

It was our 1st time in this area & to this Resort as a mature couple. On arrival reception was very welcoming, we were asked to go a get a drink as our room was not ready. At 2pm we went back & our room was ready. We requested a top floor & was given 5th floor in the main building. Our room was very bright, clean & airy. Lots of storage space, free safe & fridge. Double bed/pillows were comfortable. Large walk in shower, had great water pressure & hot water. Clean towels every day. Our views from balcony were stunning looking over the nature reserve & mountains. We were half board, food was good especially breakfast & evening meal had a good choice & we never went hungry. Kitchen staff & serving staff all worked very hard. Same as the cleaning staff. We always found polite. We would like to say a big thank you for our cleaning ladies on floor 5 main building as ours did a brilliant job & always said hello to us. We went to the adults pool most afternoons & it was always clean & tidy. I personally wasn't to keen on the cocktails as they were to sweet for my liking. The other swimming pools & communal areas were always clean to. The bus to the beach was very service & the little ting ting train was a nice ride around the local area. The beach & sea & local area of Playa de Muro was nice with a great range of shops & restaurants. Can Picafort is lovely & we went there around 3 times, it also has a market on a Friday. We also walked to Alcudia harbour, went to Palmer by using No Frills Excursion & took the bus to Alcudia town. Yes the mosquitos were a pest but luckily the avon lemon & basil body mist & agua de colonia brought from Mercondona baby aisle around €3 helped & we got no bites. Entertainment for adults & children on all day & night & bingo & live acts. Yes we recommend & would definitely return one day soon as we had a lovely holiday.

Felicia Roberts

Been here 2 years in a row and loved it but most especially had an amazing time this summer because Tamara was such an amazing host, entertainer and teacher. Definitely have a go at the games because you'll have so much fun - dont be too shy or nervous! The waiters and waitresses and most chefs were all so friendly and helpful. I enjoyed the food at every meal the only thing is since last year they have been more strict on the alcohol, they're filling drinks up half way and they taste watered down unfortunately.

Marie Pitchford

👍The room was lovely, big, comfortable and quiet. Lovely drinks...very generous.... friendly bar staff. Pool and roof area lovely...great views....warm pool...lots of sunbeds. Great location 😞 Food awful......breakfast was the best...well cooked great variety....the meat was burnt on the outside and pink in the middle...prawns were not right......cold pasta....chewy rice....we were all inclusive but went out to a lovely tapas place every night. Restaurant staff not particularly friendly. Slowest lifts ever...ended up carrying luggage to 4th floor...could wait 5 mins for lift and it never arrived.....we could take stairs but not great if you have physical difficulties or a pram

Geri wagner

Worst holiday I've ever had. The rooms are lovely and clean the bar staff are amazing but that's it you have to queue minimum 25 mins for a drink that's in the bar and the pool bar. My mum is disabled and uses a wheelchair you can wait for lift for up to an hour . The food is ok but I'm glad I'm only staying a week. If you are elderly or disabled do not touch this hotel.

Catherine Waite

From arriving late due to delay at airport Nobody on reception. We shouted for service and a scruffy man came out stinking of smoke. He had an infection in his nose and we could see the infected bubble just hanging. That put me off straight away. He threw the bands on the desk and said DOOR. we took ourselves in the lift. The room was very clean and tidy and the cleaning staff made sure it stayed that way. The lifts are appalling and having to wait is the normal. The food was ok very repetitive but you could always find something tasty. The bar was 18 deep sometimes 22 waiting to be served. The entertainment area bar was very good and friendly staff kept it moving with no problems. We have been to this Hotel at least 3 times over the years and this will be the last. It’s certainly Gone downhill and so has the clientele.

Dia Periade

We recently stayed for 9 nights at Hotel Magic Cristal Park with an all-inclusive package. Our initial room had no phone signal, no view, and no hair dryer. However, after speaking with the manager on the second day, she was incredibly kind and responsive. While we had lunch, she resolved everything within 20 minutes and moved us to a much nicer room that had all we needed. She also explained that the hotel is undergoing renovations, improving room by room. Some may find the style old-fashioned, but that’s part of the hotel's charm—they’re preserving its classic look while upgrading the facilities. The food was absolutely amazing—many compliments and blessings to the chefs! Great variety, delicious flavors, and consistent quality throughout our stay. The rooms were very clean, and we highly recommend tipping the hardworking housekeeping staff. If you've ever worked in a hotel, you’ll know how tough their job is—they truly deserve recognition. The location is also a big plus: just two streets away from the beach, making it very convenient. Right below the hotel, there’s a mini-market where you can find pretty much anything you need, and the prices are very fair. Overall, we had a lovely experience and would definitely recommend Hotel Magic Cristal Park to anyone looking for a cozy, all-inclusive stay in Benidorm with great service.

Zoe Cherise Evans

Stayed here for 4 nights. First day we were unsure as it was difficult to figure out where everything was and check in was a long wait (due to 2 people on reception and like 15+ people arriving). I honestly say the staff hands down once you make an effort are absolute angels. Sonia from entertainment was a dream, always chatty and smiling! Along with the bar staff which are such hard working men/women, the bar on reception was lively and did not disappoint. Food was ok, but im a fussy eater so I can't comment. All in all, I must have stuck lucky.. 1000% will be returning. Also handy there's a pharmacy, nail salon and 2 shops right next to eachother, beach down the road and a tobacconist

Chloe Johnson

⭐️⭐️⭐️ The hotel itself is lovely, with a beautiful setting and nice facilities. Entertainment on a night is fine and there’s always something going on, it’s a busy hotel with a lively atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service and food let it down. The food was often cold and there wasn’t much variety, which was disappointing for an all-inclusive stay. We even ended up eating out a few times, which isn’t what you expect when you’ve paid for all-inclusive. Another downside is that the walls are very thin, so you can hear almost everything from neighbouring rooms, which makes it hard to relax or sleep. With improvements to the food, service, and soundproofing, this resort could be fantastic.

Tash

Stayed here for a week all inclusive, the food was good and wasn’t overly repetitive, seemed to be food of high quality, ice lollies and ice creams included on all inclusive plus lots of access to bottled and carton water for free which we were impressed by, the pools are nice as are the majority of the staff. The only negatives for us were that the alcohol (particularly spirits) weren’t great and to us did taste watered down and we think it possibly upset our stomachs. The other negative would be some of the female reception staff can be a bit snappy and unapproachable, but other than that the rest of the staff are spot on. The little housekeeping lady is really pleasant and friendly and does a smashing job. Overall, clean hotel, good food, good location just maybe grab a bottle in the duty free and avoid the booze!

Phil Downes

Our first time in turkey and we stayed here, excellent staff and service, the maids were the loveliest I’ve experienced anywhere. Air con in the rooms was excellent. Food was very good and a pretty wide range. Pools and facilities were meticulously clean and serviced. Very family friendly but not overwhelmingly like a kids hotel it was just the right balance. We did 2 excursions there, Jeep safari and the pirate boat trip. Both were fantastic days out and well worth the money. On our last day you have use of the spa showers and changing rooms so you can enjoy the full day and get ready for travel back. Very pleased .

James Spray

Absolutely loved our stay at this hotel with our two kids aged 3 and 1 loads going on hotel has great food. Special shout you to ILHAN at the breakfast lunch and dinner service was absolutely amazing and made us feel so welcome. ALHAYYYYY! about at 10 minute walk to start of the strip and 2.4 miles from harbour. Gym was okay few dumbbells going up to 22.5 kg and 3 machines but all have multiple functions on so can get a decent enough work out. Tattoo palour great tattooists. Jewellery’s cleaned my Mrs ring and bracelet very good. Barber was decent too for a skin fade and beard. Hopefully be back soon. Thank you green nature resort.

Paul Dorning

Staff are amazing and have friendly, trip and they'll get you a table to sit on straight away at meal times. Food is very good, not excellent. Rooms very clean and tidy. 15 mins walk the the beach front Pool very busy, sunbed open at 6am most beds gone by 7am. I was a single dad travelling with my sin aged 7 and felt very help with everything the hotel offered.

Veljko Garic

I had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff were extremely friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The room was spotless, spacious, and very comfortable, with all the amenities I could ask for. The food was delicious and offered a wide variety to choose from every day. The location was also excellent, making it easy to enjoy both relaxation and nearby attractions. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This hotel exceeded all my expectations, and I would highly recommend it to anyone. Definitely a well-deserved 10/10!

Ola Stusinska

Our stay at the hotel was amazing! The staff were incredibly kind, always smiling and helpful – you can really see they care about the guests. The animators were absolutely fantastic – full of energy, fun, and great at creating a lively atmosphere. They made every day special and full of laughter. I highly recommend this hotel and would love to come back! 🌴💛

George Shawzy

Best hotel best animation team, entertainment in the evening is really good with plenty for everyone. The staff can’t do enough for you and go out that further more for you if you leave a small tip. Sam the man who does the safari trips did us a really good deal, the safari was amazing! Eid is a lovely fella who booked my daughter for hair braid. We had plenty of chats and give us good advice. We go on the private island tomorrow, snorkelling, boat trip, fishing. See the dolphins and turtles 🐢 Mohamed Salah looked after us in the evening with plenty of drinks every evening. He just brought them to your table. The hotel is amazing! 1 week probably isn’t enough as we still haven’t seen the whole resort yet. We’re still here for 4 more days and love everything about Long Island 🏝️

Sandra Miszczuk

This is my second stay at this hotel – and definitely not the last! 🏖️ The hotel is amazing – clean, well-maintained, and beautifully designed. The rooms are spacious, cleaned daily, and the staff is always smiling and ready to help with anything you need. The food is delicious and varied – there’s something for everyone. Fresh vegetables and fruits, local specialties, and tasty desserts make every meal a pleasure 🍽️ The hotel staff deserve a huge compliment – they are friendly, welcoming, and make you feel at home. The animation team is fantastic – they organize fun activities during the day and great evening shows, so there’s never a dull moment. Egypt itself is just stunning – beautiful sea, coral reefs, and sunshine all day long. The perfect place to relax and recharge 🌞 I highly recommend this hotel to everyone – I keep coming back because I know I’ll always have an unforgettable holiday here! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wiktoria Miszczuk

This is my second time in this hotel 🥰This place is truly an oasis of comfort! The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, always smiling and ready to assist, which made us feel really special. The animation team doing a fantastic job, providing daily entertainment – from games and competitions to evening shows that were energetic and full of fun. The food is delicious – a wide variety of dishes, fresh ingredients, and tasty local specialties that let us experience the true flavors of Egypt. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for relaxation, great entertainment, and amazing food! ☺️☺️☺️

Gabriella Szilagyi

We spent a week at this hotel with my friends. We were satisfied with everything — the whole place is beautiful, clean, and well-maintained. The staff is very kind and attentive. Khaled, the chef, is the best! ❤️ The beach is absolutely stunning. We’ll definitely come back again.

Natasha Hodgson

We had a great stay at the hotel with only a few issues. The hotel is at a lovely location on the Makadi Bay with a great beach. The food was excellent with the main buffet doing different themes every night. As there are so many a la carte restaurants, there is so much choice. The all inclusive deal was definitely worth it due to the variety of food and drinks. With numerous pools and beach access there were always sunbeds available as well. Rooms were kept nice and clean, although decor was a little dated. The animation team also did a great job at putting on entertainment every night, including one night with fireworks and dancers. The only issues we had were with the reception staff. We had an issue on the first night with getting the correct room we booked; this was late at night and we were given two different insufficient rooms before they gave us the correct room we had paid for. Additionally, one night a cat was stuck high up in a tree and this was reported to reception twice who claimed to be sending someone but no one came, eventually I ended up getting the cat down myself with the help of some restaurant staff. Overall we had a great time and would recommend the hotel to others!

Stephanie Kouroubetsi

This hotel was called Labranda Royal Makadi although heard whilst there it has been bought out by Jaz Makadi. We had an ok time and wouldn't go back. Hotel states it's 5* but comparing to other 5* in hurghada we felt it was 4*. We compared it to Jaz Makadi Star 5* which is exceptional. Not good service overall apart from beach bar and beach restaurant both excellent. Sambo our beach bar guy was brilliant 👏 very friendly and kind. Had to use clinic whilst there. Dr Haris was exceptional.

ENGO G

I had a fantastic stay! The hotel was clean, modern, and very well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful – especially Mohammed, the best man ever! I felt welcome from the very first moment. The location is perfect for exploring the area, yet peaceful enough to relax. Breakfast was fresh, varied, and delicious. I would definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a pleasant and warm stay.

Vlad Preda

I recently spent my holiday at Labranda Royal, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. The hotel had a welcoming atmosphere, with friendly staff always ready to help. The rooms were clean, spacious, and comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day of activities. The food was excellent, offering a wide variety of delicious options each day. The pool area was well-maintained and perfect for both relaxing and enjoying the sun. I also appreciated the entertainment and overall positive vibe of the place. Overall, I had a wonderful time and would gladly return again.

Alamin kobir sohan

🌴 Review I had a wonderful stay at Sunshine Crete Beach & Village. The location is perfect — right by the sea, with a beautiful view and easy beach access. The pools are large, clean, and great for relaxing. The hotel staff were very friendly, polite, and always ready to help, which made the experience even better. The breakfast was enjoyable, with enough variety to start the day well. Booking through Agoda also included free breakfast, which was a nice bonus. The rooms were spacious and clean, though the interior design felt a little bit old-fashioned. Still, everything was comfortable and well-maintained. Overall, it’s a lovely place to relax, enjoy the beach, and spend quality time. Definitely a good value for the price, and I would recommend it for both couples and families. ⭐ Rating: 5/5

Danijela Stojanovic

Very nice hotel, old but well kept. The staff is wonderful and always smiling, and the rooms on the ground floor with a garden are a paradise for children. the highest praise for the pirates animation team, our twins enjoyed their time. Sea is wonderful, but quite cold in the second half of June. all in all a wonderful experience. Greetings from Serbia.

Jana Dorotikova

We just got back last week. The resort Is great, especially for families with children. Everything was always clean, enough sunbeds And umbrellas on the beach. The sea Is beautiful, ideal for snorkeling. Food was amazing, various choices every day. And mainly, the staff were all amazing, Smiling all the time so we Felt very welcomed. Even though they were working very hard they all were just so friendly! Thank you for a great Holiday And we absolutely recommend this hotel! 🌴🤿♥️

Michal Cerhák

We really enjoyed our holidays at the Sunshine Crete Beach Hotel. We have stayed in a semi-separate apartment out of the main building. It was clean and quiet. We asked for a sea-view room but we could barely see the sea as it was mostly hidden by other buildings which was not so big issue at the end as we did not spend much time in the room anyway. The catering was also great in the main restaurant and at the beach bar. The overall atmosphere was perfect, mostly thanks to the animation team. They took care of the children as well as of adults during the day and evening. There was always something to do and it was always fun. Amongst others stretching and aqua aerobics in the morning, water polo and some competition in the afternoon, and a mini-disco for kids with another competition or karaoke and a disco in the evening. Go, animators, go!

Emily W

An amazing two weeks at this wonderful hotel. Everything was excellent - the room, food, staff. They welcomed us at 4am and were so kind and helpful, it was a great start after a long journey with young children. The hotel is just lovely, with so many facilities. Everything for kids was perfect and the food was delicious with plenty of choice. Even if you don’t have children, there’s plenty to enjoy. Could not recommend enough.

Anamaria Dolhăscanu

We stayed 4 nights at the bungalow. From the first day we were disappointed. The reception gave us a map drawn incorrectly to our accommodation. 20 minutes to look for the accommodation. The room was dirty, broken glass shards under the furniture (a sign that it was not cleaned properly) 3 rolls of toilet paper for about 5 days. No products in the bathroom. (not even hand soap) Towels changed every 3 days, bed linen every 1 week. We did not receive cleaning after 3 days! The lady on duty said that she did not do it, although we spoke to the reception for cleaning... The accommodation leaves a lot to be desired... The pool was superficially cleaned. There are not enough sun loungers for all the bungalows (or at least 1 sun lounger per bungalow) Unfriendly staff! An exchange of sharp remarks. Just because we wanted a bath towel (there were 2 large towels and one hand towel in the room) I work in this field and I know exactly that a lot of things were not done. I paid for many services that I did not receive!

Millie

bathroom was dirty when we arrived, looks like blood dots on the bathroom, sink draws dirty. a cockroach had came in on our last night there. scrubbed the inside of the pool once in the 5 days but didn’t get all the muck out so was just left in a corner, didn’t clean the outside of the pool the whole 5 days i was there 20 minute walk to the beach then uphill to get back no hand soap provided, only had 2 towels and no bath mat the whole 5 days first 2 days the bath drain didn’t work and made a drain in the bathroom floor come out and flood the bathroom, someone came in to fix it and seemed work after that. the whole complex is huge, about 5 pools, 1 supermarket and a brit shop, bars and restaurants food in the all inclusive restaurant was okay, not much me and my family would eat but thats all preference. some staff was rude but then others really friendly and helpful, whenever we came to the bar he would automatically bring out 5 cups for us. basketball ball court, tennis court, little football pitch. little park laundry room 5 euro to wash 4 euro to dry washing liquid provided

Mandie Ryan

I booked this as a surprise for my partner for his birthday, after 3 years of not being able to get away. What an incredible disappointment. I read the reviews, and altho mixed, some were glowing, I can only assume those were fake. We booked with Love Holidays, and the first item on the room info was Aircon, a deal breaker for me, there was none and never has been. We had to pay €20 to hire a fan, plus a €20 deposit. Oh, and you onky get one key so we had to pay €5 for a second so we could go out separately if we wanted, as another couple we met said there were 2 break-ins during the week they stayed. We rejected our first room, it was just awful. Our 2nd room only slightly better, at least it didn't have tge 1970's orange pine kitchenette. Don't even think about self catering, with one small hob, a microwave and a toaster, and very limited utensils and cutlery, you can't even cook a simple meal. The fridge had 2 settings, not working (everything tasted warm and the butter was melting), or freeze, literally everything froze within a couple of hours, oh, and no working light! The room was filthy and riddled with problems, curtain rail hanging off, toilet seat broken, and just very unclean, stains everywhere, a throw over the sofa bed to hide stains, blood spots on the spare pillows, and stained white sheets, and I don't think housekeeping existed, same sheets and towels all week, never saw them once. Its a good 25 minute walk to the beach, downhill all the way, Google maps also says mainly flat, but its definitely not, its hard work coming back up, and you have to go down to the town to eat as the places around the accommodation aren't great. Litter was everywhere, fast foid pacjets, cans, crisp wrappers etc, and a million dead e-scooters just abandoned everywhere you looked. I only give 1 star as no stars isn't possible. We went to reception several times to complain about various things, Anna was amazing and extremely helpful, but the guy on checkin when we arrived was rude as, to the point of carrying on a personal conversation whilst we tried to talk to him. Others there at the same time complained about the food on all inclusive, so feel very fortunate we had booked self catering, but this should be changed to room only as the facilities are just not worthy of self catering. We stayed early July, loved the island, its beautiful, but really tainted by this truly awful experience. If we could have come home the first night, we gladly would have. Asked if we could speak to a Love Holidays rep, the guy laughed in our faces and said he'd never seen one, so good luck! Couldn't get anyone on chat, maybe it was the signal, but just kept saying nobody was available, and to be honest, they wouldn't have done anything by the sounds of it. Contacted them once we were back, after we'd both calmed down a bit, provided screenshot and photos of how truly disgusting the place is. They take up to 28 days to review and check our info, still waiting, and to be honest, I don't want a refund, i just want to stop them lying to people and false selling the dream! If you're thinking of booking...DON'T is my advice. And don't use Love Holidays, this was our first experience, and it will most definitely be our last. Stick with On The Beach!

I have stayed here a few times. You truly get what you pay for. This is a 2 star place, people on reviews for get that. I've stayed here multiple times and I have had no problems apart from the all inclusive food is terrible so would recommend self catering. Apart from that, would recommend for a cheap place to go

Qasim

Horrible. From a nightmare. A bad nightmare. NO AIR CON in any room. 2 small fans and an apartment that looks like your sleeping in a leaking garage. Total filthy should be shut down. Kids swimming pool out of order I don't get any of it. Guys we relocated and if you book this I'm 101% sure you will leave also. I took this up with my agent asking for a refund hotel lied and said they promised the pool would be working the next day! This is a total lie as had that been the case we would have stayed in the hell hole. Hotel are compulsive liars and I will expose them for the world to see! Also hotel is in the middle of nowhere, appalling hotel should be shut down. I wouldn't let my dog sleep there!!!! Also lots of thefts!

First time at this resort and it’s absolutely amazing! From the time I walked in the staff are very helpful and polite and go out their way for you. I got upgraded and the room was amazing and so clean and fresh.This hotel is beautiful I had the best time relaxing. I will definitely be coming next year !

David Jackson

100% loved this holiday, but unfortunately wouldn’t go back. All bar staff, pool staff, lifeguards, was amazing and couldn’t help you enough. Unfortunately on check in, we was upgraded for 1 night & told even better room tommorow, it certainly wasn’t 😡 3rd room we accepted but couldn’t unpack until mid 2nd day. Through out was amazing but unfortunately food was poor, everyone had bad stomach, then on checkout from room we had 7 hours left so went to pool all going great, upon ready to leave we went the spa to have have a shower ready for home but refused give us a towel 😡😡😡 Unfortunately for this, we won’t go back to this hotel!!!

Rawasy Shiref

The hotel is excellent, comfortable, and has stunning views that make me feel comfortable. The treatment is excellent. I want to express my thanks to the enjoyable animation team, especially the good treatment of a person whose name I unfortunately do not know, and some employees in the restaurant and at the swimming pool. Thank you. I hope to visit you again. ❤️

Aymen Dilmi

A beautiful and quiet hotel. The rooms are clean and tidy. The staff are helpful and wonderful. There are 3 good, large, and clean pools. Just one note: The food needs more variety the same dishes are repeated many times. Overall, an excellent hotel.

Geeta Kumari

Me and my family stayed at the Cleopatra for one week and honestly it was amazing. The staff are so friendly, hospitable and attend to your every need. The hotel was immaculate. Booking excursions through the hotel is so easy as Ahmed explained everything in great detail and was so attentive. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Loved my stay here💙

Łukasz Urbaś

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing stay! We had a fantastic vacation here — everything exceeded our expectations. The food at the restaurant was delicious, with plenty of choice and great quality. The bars serve amazing, creative cocktails — truly something special! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the sea, with a clean and well-maintained beach. Fresh towels were available every day, which was a lovely touch. But what really made our stay unforgettable was the staff — professional, friendly, and always smiling. A special shout-out to Mohamed from the bar, who’s simply the best! He always creates a great atmosphere, makes the most incredible drinks, and brings so much positive energy — he really made our evenings special. Highly recommended! We’ll definitely be back! 🌴🍹

Mamdouh Soliman

All the staff are very Friendly and so helpful and special thanks to MR Mohamed (direct or of Food and beverage) he is super proffetional and helps us in Everything and he made our stay more than perfect with his team. MR Bassem one of the restaurant supervisor's he is very cooperative and he did all his best for us. Mahmoud at reception he was so nice with us and made his best regarding to our requests as much as he can in a perfect way. Abdelaziz one of the waiters satff he so polite and helpful and cafing about us so much The Food was amazing and has a very good taste and there is a lot of varieties. The service is more than perfect The room was very clean The animation team is amazing and they did a different activities for each day. We are more than satisfied and Everything was more than perfect and out of our expectations ♥️

Hannah Lane

Stayed a week at the hotel, staff very welcoming and friendly with great service. Bar had lots of drinks but alcohol all tastes the same. Animation team very friendly with lots of different activities. Restaurant had lots of choice and food is very nice. Had food at the beach one night which was lovely with a show. Room was okay I had a sofa bed which is quite small and rooms are quite dated but are nice enough for a week. Overall a lovely holiday, the snorkelling is amazing. Would recommend and come again.

Anna Bohova

The hotel has nice, spacious rooms and a beautiful sandy beach. The service is excellent — everyone is very kind and friendly. The food is delicious, with plenty of choice. A wonderful place for a relaxing holiday. The animation is not intrusive, the rest is comfortable, I liked the yoga.

Cayden Reece

Great resort, staff are extremely friendly and helpful going out of their way to ensure you are comfortable and having a great time. The hotels are clean, the drinks and food are delicious. Animation team are entertaining, offering loads of activities. Highly recommend

Kate Radley

We had an amazing stay at Midor Hotel in Maspalomas! The vibe here is fantastic — relaxed, welcoming, and full of energy. The facilities are excellent, with everything you could want for both comfort and fun, making it the perfect place to unwind and enjoy yourself. A special shoutout to Nerea from the animations team — she truly made our holiday unforgettable. Her energy, warmth, and creativity brought so much joy to every activity. Thanks to her, every day was filled with laughter and memorable moments. She’s an absolute star and really made our experience extra special. Highly recommend this hotel if you’re looking for a fun, vibrant atmosphere with brilliant staff and great facilities. We can’t wait to come back!

maddie zacaroli

came here for a week stay and really enjoyed our time, hotel is definitely worth the price and a value for money, rooms and hotel were clean. had friendly staff and entertainment staff were great very welcoming and all of the activities were very inclusive, it's clear to see the staff at this hotel work hard, not a problem with the food lots to choose from and something for everyone, also accommodating hours with food times, especially the late arrivals open time which was on from 11pm really helped when we arrived late. great pool area sunbeds can get quite busy but we always managed to find some even when coming down later in the day, definitely an entertaining and lively atmosphere suitable for families, with activities running throughout the day and night, night entertainment area can get quite busy but definitely worth it with a great entertainment/animation team. free coach to the beach throughout the day and the beach was great and scenic especially with the dunes nearby. rooms were clean with fridge, smart tv, hairdryer, kettle and comfy beds. also an onsite shop which had snacks, drinks and cosmetics which i found to be cheap compared to other hotel shops, also an extra late checkout service which was cheap and really helpful for those leaving later in the day. overall great hotel and great value for money, staff are friendly and put in a lot of effort for you to enjoy your stay i would recommend this hotel mostly for those with families or those who like the loud atmosphere in my opinion should be upgraded to 4 star. really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back again

Lauren Weir

Fantastic hotel for the price. Rooms and food are what you would expect for the price but the entertainment team are amazing! Our children had an absolute ball at the kids club with all the entertainment team. Connell really encouraged the children to make new friends, they loved Kendra painting their faces like pirates, my daugter particularly liked Marea on the first day, she helped her come out of her shell a little bit when she was nervous to go to the club. They enjoyed the entertainment so much that we had to come back to the hotel early from the beach so that they could go to the club. Kids had a ball on the stage for mini disco and them evening entertainment was great fun, particularly the round the world show the staff put on and name that song game for adults. We would come back particularly for the entertainment team.

Daniel Ash-Webber

After a week's stay here, I can honestly say that this hotel fell short of our expectations. Pre-mixed cocktails dispensed from a machine tasted cheap and nasty, couldn't drink them. The air conditioning situation was frustrating, having to hire a portable unit at extra cost, we couldn't hire it the night of arrival as we enquired when we arrived and was apparently not possible. Beds weren't all that comfortable. The heat is intense in the room, you have to leave the sliding door open to use the air con unit which poses a bit of a security issue. As a smoker myself, the smoking area is disgusting, there is a huge vent opposite blowing out hot air making it extremely uncomfortable to sit or stand and have a cigarette. There's also a very powerful vomit/sick smell we noticed when walking past the top of the pool bar. Dinner was good, breakfast was ok and some days were a bit repetitive. Some plates didn't seem completely clean and had to go on the hunt for cuterly some evenings. I will say that the reception staff were lovely and incredibly helpful, answered all our questions about the local area, things to do, transport etc. I also had a massage at the hotel and that was excellent, the masseuse was very professional and I felt extremely relaxed. The love/hate sports bar is fantastic. Service was very good, the food was incredibale and staff are lovely. In summary, the staff are a credit to the hotel but the hotel itself needs some improvement.

KevinBarry O Shea

We are staying for a week with our young kids 10 and 6. They are loving it, which is the main thing. The animation team, led by Kendra, are very good, providing different games and activities all day & at night. Great fun was had during the music quiz! Food and drink choices are nice and varied, and the cleaning staff are very thorough. So far, so good!

Faith Fincham

Room was everything you needed, minus no iron and asked reception for one and they had none left. Food was quite awful, we had to eat out most nights. Was cold and not much variety. And the drinks was sometimes flat not fizzy. But Hotel has everything you need with a nice pool, plenty of sun beds and a little shop which is handy. Staff were lovely, other than a couple of receptionists who weren’t the most helpful when asking questions.

jon benson

There was an issue with the air conditioning however they resolved this and in the showers there was nowhere to put products like a shelf which really annoys me as it’s a very basic thing , also the shower head holder did that droopy thing or was tilting right up at the ceiling so you have to get the pressure right to stop this , the staff were very friendly and the room cleaning was superb and a nice touch replenished water in the fridge daily. Although the distance from town was a mile there was a taxi point and we used the electric scooters (hopp) that you download the app and go , the food was adequate not superb but I have had a lot worse , overall I would come back 👍

b jones

This was our second time visiting Evita Resort, and once again it was absolutely amazing! The food was fantastic with so much choice, the service was excellent, and everything about the resort makes for a perfect holiday. What really made our stay unforgettable was the entertainment crew – especially Sam. His energy, friendliness, and the way he gets everyone involved made such a difference. He truly went above and beyond to make our holiday special, and it wouldn’t have been the same without him. Evita Resort never disappoints, and we’ll definitely be back again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for great food, great service, and an all-round brilliant experience!

As a group of 6 that turned up at 8pm on a Saturday night we were told our rooms wasn't ready due to fumes!!! no apology so we was shipped out to different hotels not the best start. Arrived back Sunday morning where reception apologised for the misunderstanding of double booking which they could have just said that Saturday night instead of lying. 3 days in we were in room 516 and the shower door came clean off the rails and smashed everywhere luckily we wasn't hurt just a few grazes husband went to reception who sent him back with an accident form and 2 plasters followed by maintenance men and 2 housekeepers. No shower door for the rest of our stay no apology no check on our welfare nothing from them when I chased this up the next 2 days was just given towels for the floor. I feel the accident form was just for show and lying in a shredder somewhere. Entertainment and bar staff really good and to be honest the best thing about this hotel, housekeeping good and its a clean hotel. Food aways cold in the resturant no matter if you're in early or late not much choice either but could be because we were approaching the end of season, however Snack bar was really good gyros and pizza were lovely. Pool good and always managed to get sunbeds. You get what you pay for I suppose and was realy nice to see the peacocks wandering about too. Wouldn't class this as a 4 star hotel more a 3.

Laura Kudzia

We booked our trip in May through TUI. Unfortunately, the problems started right after check-in. The room we received was completely different from what we booked – instead of a double room, we got a “family” room with three beds and an unpleasant bathroom. After contacting reception and our travel agency, we were told to come back in the morning to change the room. When we did, the receptionist (dark hair, glasses) was extremely rude, asking what our problem was since we got an “upgrade.” The problem is that we did not book a family room – we booked a double room! Eventually, with great reluctance, they gave us the correct room. Saying “there are no other rooms” after a booking made months in advance is the peak of unprofessionalism. The second and even worse issue – our Dior Sauvage 100 ml perfume disappeared from the room. I have a photo showing the perfume on the desk on Sunday, and it disappeared after housekeeping on Monday and Tuesday while we were on trips and at the beach. We searched the room countless times – nothing. If the perfume had been broken, the smell would have been obvious. We reported this to the reception and to our travel agency immediately. Our agency called the hotel daily, but the only answer we got was “the manager has not replied yet.” The manager never showed up to speak with us and there was no confrontation with the cleaning staff. After constant pressure, we received a ridiculous 50 euros compensation, which is an insult compared to the value of the loss. This is completely unacceptable and disrespectful towards guests. To the person who stole our perfume – you are a disgrace. Stealing from hotel guests is one of the lowest and most shameful things a person can do. We hope karma catches up with you very soon, because you don’t deserve to be working around other people’s belongings. Hotel management is absolutely incompetent! A manager should be present in the hotel and handle such serious issues immediately, not hide away. This hotel deserves 0 stars. The only positive: the restaurant staff and the animators. The restaurant service was always smiling, very attentive, and kept everything clean inside and outside. Pool bar – tasty drinks and friendly service. Animators – amazing, full of energy. Snack bar – delicious pizza and pita. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. We will never come back and we do not recommend this hotel to anyone.

Stay: September 8–15, 2025 ☀️🏝️🌸🇬🇷 🧿This resort exceeded my expectations with its beautiful environment, excellent food, and welcoming staff. From the very beginning we felt comfortable and well taken care of. 🧿The room was spacious, quiet, and had a large terrace. The amenities met all expectations — very comfortable beds, air conditioning, a small fridge (perfect for keeping water cool for the beach), a safe, and fresh towels provided daily. 🧿The resort feels like a small village, with a main restaurant, a restaurant near the beach, several pools with bars, and a large, well-stocked shop. The all-inclusive service was excellent: a wide variety of buffets, different types of meat each day (pork, beef, duck, fish), and plenty of vegetarian options. I especially enjoyed the dolmades (served both hot and cold), the delicious moussaka, the local olives, and the feta cheese. The main restaurant was always spotless, and the staff were friendly, smiling, and very attentive. 🧿The pools were well maintained, the beach sandy, and the adults-only zone was a big plus — the loungers with mattresses were extremely comfortable. We spent a lot of time at the pool bar, where the bartenders were not only hard-working but also very funny and made the stay even more enjoyable 🩵 🧿 The location of the resort is excellent — close to a market, tavernas, and the Korission Lagoon. A trip to Kerkyra Town is definitely worth it. Overall, a wonderful holiday experience — highly recommended, 10/10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We stayed at the hotel as a family from September 26 to October 1, 2025. The weather was wonderful during this time. The hotel staff are very helpful in every way, especially the guest relations manager, Christina. We received a complimentary room upgrade to a Family Comfort Garden View, for which I am very grateful. The hotel grounds are very green and well-maintained, and the beach has perfect soft sand, which is very comfortable for families with children. The food is varied, delicious, and offers a wide selection. The rooms are in good condition, although some of the furniture could use renovation. Room cleaning is also of good quality. The only, but very unpleasant, incident that happened to us at the hotel was a case of personal insult based on nationality from the doctor, Pandis Christos, whose medical office is located on the hotel grounds. The doctor told me, as a Ukrainian, that he likes russia and that putin will pay my bill. He did not apologize for his words. For this reason, I do not recommend visiting the medical office at the hotel due to the unprofessional behavior of Pandis Christos.

Marius Cucuveica

5 stars for all the delicious desserts. Best cakes I ever had. Very big resort close to the beach, big swimming pools with lots of space around. It looks like it was build many years ago but very clean and well maintained. Of course there is space to improve.

Skyla Holman

We visited in October 25 and stayed for 11 nights. The hotel and grounds themselves are very clean and tidy. The reusable cup system works very well, you don't see plastic cups scattered everywhere like other resorts. We had a villa room with a pool. The room and Terrace area were really lovely you had everything you needed. And that end of the resort was lovely and quite just as we wanted. Our only complaint with our room is the cleaners, they didn't actually clean anything. They would change all our towels including pool towels, change the bedding and empty the bins. We don't make much mess but one thing that does bug me is bits on the foors, especially when walking around with nothing on your feet. The cleaners didn't sweep the room floors or the balcony area at all. We had a few storms during our stay so our outside area was covered in bits. Cups and glasses didn't get washed and they didn't replace any used teas or coffees. When we arrived we had flannels but these were taken away but not replaced. The food in the main restaurant was very limited on selections and very repetitive for lunch and dinner, also the food was always cold!! Even when the replaced a tray it was cold! I resorted to only eating the cold pasta salads. The only hot food we had during our stay was from the lovely ladies at the snack bar. Lovely hot fresh pizza and hot dogs. These ladies work so very hard and are non stop for 5 hours. We visited the onsite Greek restaurant. You get one visit with your stay and have to book a table. Honestly it was the worst chicken solvaki I have ever had! You could hardly get the chicken off of the skewers it had been on there for so long and was completely baked on, the chicken had no moisture left. And in keeping with the rest of the food it was cold. The ice cream you can buy from beach bar was lovely and very well priced, 2 scoops for €4. You can get the bus to corfu town from the hotel and you can pre buy tickets from reception for this. Or there are more buses from the bus stop just behind the hotel. A short walk from the hotel is a few lovely restaurant's, and shops. The hotels location is very out of the way from everywhere else. We took a lovely walk from the hotel all the way to the end of the beach and up into the dunes and over to the lake. If your going to do this make sure you take a drink with you. Overall all of the stuff at the hotel are very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay but the food was a big letdown.

SPA REVIEW:Freddie was my therapist today at the spa at the resort and oh my I cant speak highly enough. I walked into the spa and was greeted by Sophia. She was so kind and knowledgeable about the services products and tailoring services to your needs and wants. I was scheduled in last minute at the end of our stay which was great as they are very busy. I arrived 5 minutes before to fill in my medical form and was introduced to Freddie. The man with the magic hands. He greeted me with a warm smile before showing me to the most cozy relaxing room. Instant comfort. He helped me on the bed and made sure I was comfortable the whole way through which at 6 months pregnant is essential. I had a hydra facial today and it was honestly the most relaxing experience ive ever had to the point I fell asleep. Freddie was so kind about that and gently woke me at the end of my treatment and helped me up. My skin feels amazing !!! The spa is beautiful. The staff are wonderful within the spa. This is not included in the all inclusive package but well worth the money!

Sophie Ray

Beautiful place! The staff were all so helpful and friendly. The stay was wonderful. The food was top notch, the entertainment was charming, and the entertainment team were all really lovely. My one struggle was the beds as they were a little hard for my personal liking, but that's my preference and they weren't awful. I definitely want to go back. The architecture in the hotel was impressive, and there's a shop inside the hotel for essentials which was super handy! I also have never seen a hotel pool as large as the one here. Absolutely incredible. If you're reading reviews wondering about going to this hotel, let me encourage you to book it, you won't regret it.

William Gibb

This is a fantastic hotel. Rooms beautiful Spotless clean Fantastic bars and pool Two restaurants are excellent with a great choice of food . Staff are amazing, friendly, welcoming and charming. This hotel is a 15 mins easy walk into the town with a bus stop at the end of the road if you want to visit Portimao or Alvor. Perfect for a family holiday or a short break. Can't praise this hotel enough.

Vaughan Salisbury

Splendid place. Very helpful, friendly staff. A good selection of food in the snack bars and the restaurants. Very good pool area with plenty of sunbeds. A short walk into town and a complimentary bus to the beach. Plenty of shops in the town. We had a very pleasant stay there. The weather was warm and sunny. Be aware, though there is no kettle and the hotel do not provide irons. It was no problem , we just took our own.

TG

Such mixed reviews for this hotel. The rooms are very spacious but there's no actual storage space for a family (a couple of drawers and about 4 hangers). We were all inclusive however you have to pay for quite a bit. Pool towels are €20 holding deposit, there's a safe in the room but you have to pay to get the code (not sure cost on this) there is also no irons as you have to pay to get clothes ironed in the laundry which is €5 per item. We stayed for 10 nights and the beds weren't changed the whole time we were there. The cleaners didn't really clean the rooms at all. The food wasn't great, we ended up eating out a few nights and the restaurants in the area were amazing, highly recommend walking into Alvor for a meal if you can, it's about a 15 min walk from the hotel. They also had a free shuttle to the beach which was a nice touch! The pool area was great, loads of space and sunbeds meaning you never felt ontop of anyone else! Overall it was a nice stay, loved the area but not sure I would return to this hotel.

Branden Sanchez

Read this if you want the real Brit’s-eye view of staying here! 🇬🇧 The hotel looks lovely. The grounds are genuinely beautiful, even during shoulder season. Staff were friendly everywhere, from reception to the bar - always smiling, always helpful. The evening entertainment? Bit of a miss. Think more “holiday park karaoke” than “West End". And the food... brace yourself. We’d read the mixed reviews and thought, “How bad can it be?” Turns out - pretty bad. Basic things like pasta or chips weren’t reliable options. Snacks by the pool? Forget it! Toasties, chips, anything simple, just not happening. And this isn’t me being a fussy Brit abroad. I love local food, but the “local dishes” here were often soaked in fish oil or made mostly of bones. The restaurant setup was odd too. You’re assigned a table, but if you get up for dessert, you might return to find your tablecloth gone, or someone else in your seat. Why not just let people sit where they like? Now for the best part: step outside the hotel and head into Alvor. Complete game changer. There are some genuinely incredible restaurants within a 20-minute walk, top-tier food, great service, and proper value for money. Honestly, just eat out or cook in your room. The local supermarkets are brilliant for fresh produce (better than back home). Credit where it’s due though, the rooms were spotless. The cleaners deserve a medal. Always cheerful, always thorough. Big rooms too. The beds, though, were rock hard, two singles pretending to be a double. You can either sleep apart or cling on like a monkey at Lagos Zoo. Still, can’t fault the cleanliness. Biggest gripe was the hidden extras. “All inclusive” doesn’t mean much here... pizzas, branded ice creams, even a paddle racket all cost extra (€10–€20!). Most hotels would include that stuff or at least take a refundable deposit. Overall: Not a disaster, but not a delight either. The cleaners and room quality saved the day. Being able to cook for ourselves made it bearable, without that, this review would read very differently. Would I stay again? Maybe… if they sorted the food and stopped the penny-pinching. Until then, head into town, eat like royalty, and soak up the sunshine.

Lorna Armstrong

Great staff, waiters and bar staff seem to work morning till night! Special shout out to Keya and Jehu, always a nice welcome and friendly chat. Jess from entertainment team really tried to get us to join in but we were there to relax, but she was good at her and job and friendly. Really enjoyed food good selection and lovely fresh salads. The beach is not a beach to rekax on, full of stones and boulders, but once past the large rocks was lovely clear waters. Pool is lovely. There are bars and restaurants around 10min walk and nice coastal walk to viewpoint. I would recommend a visit to coral bay beach nice sandy beach and beautiful clear waters.

Michelle Walsh

This hotel is advised as 4 star but sadly it is at best an average 3 star by Irish standards. The hotel is in need of a major update and is very poorly maintained in some areas. However, the pool area is fabulous with views of the Mediterranean are breathtaking. We were always able to get sunloungers and umbrellas not matter what time we visited the pool. Make use of your balcony to watch the amazing sunsets. Rooms are large but again dated. Beds and pillows especially fall short in the comfort department. Food is buffet style and is good overall. The drinks menu is limited and what is on offer is of poor quality, especially the beer and wine options.There are no international drink labels on offer at the bar either if you wanted to upgrade your drink to your usual tipple from home. This proved to be a major barrier to our travel group enjoying their evenings in the hotel. I don't drink alcohol and found the soft drink options to be fine. We had a few minor issues during our stay which were dealt with immediately. The staff are hard working and friendly. Rooms above or near the nightly entertainment will be disturbed by the noise. Overall the location is the major draw for this hotel, the pool was amazing. If you can overlook the faded grandeur of this hotel it is a good option for pool lovers and is close to the main strip and a short distance from Coral Bay beach.

Yirga Berhane

I had a lovely break from start to finish! We arrived late at night on 27/07/25, after 10 PM. Even though dinner time had finished, Loretta at reception kindly offered us dinner. She is such a lovely and welcoming person – thank you, Loretta! All the hotel staff were professional, caring, and attentive throughout our stay. Our room was cleaned daily to a high standard – thank you to the housekeeping team! Both the indoor and outdoor swimming pools were clean and well-maintained. My son and I also really enjoyed using the gym and sauna – everything was fantastic. The food was amazing – honestly some of the best I’ve had on a holiday. I felt completely relaxed and was able to make the most of all the facilities, which meant a lot given how busy my life usually is. This was truly one of my most unforgettable holidays. A very nice hotel that I would definitely love to return to!

Darcie

Really Nice and friendly staff, good food, nice views. Entertainment is very good and fun to take apart in. There was a fight on one of out nights but it got sorted quite fast. Lots of cats around the hotel very friendly and like a good stroke

Shaéla Hatboulom

A little feedback on my stay, a great hotel! A top welcome! Welcoming waiters! Especially Best, Jehu and Mariana, big favorites, they are great! The super friendly cleaning staff! Nothing to say! The only shame is that in the evening you can hear the music quite a bit from the hotel room... and regarding the meals, a little more variety would have been great, but it's still super good, so not too disturbing. Otherwise, having booked on Booking.com, we were told there was a shuttle from the airport to the hotel and vice versa, but on site there isn't all that... it's a shame... but otherwise GREAT

Stephen Lee

This 4 star all inclusive hotel is not far off the mark. Our room was spacious and comfortable, the bathroom was well appointed with bath/shower. The room though however had a distinct lack of power outlets with the necessity to unplug something to use any personal items. The bathroom has a hair dryer but no other power outlet. Food quality was good with some changes throughout our stay (12 nights). There is light entertainment most nights. Free shuttle to beach and back regularly. Public bus to Kos town stops at the Hotel. Staff were all very helpful and pleasant. The property is clean and spread out. There are lots of amenities for free all described in promotional literature. Even though this Hotel is a 4 star Hotel it attracts the Governments luxury tourist taxes for most of the peak season , so factor that into your costs along with the type of room you need or require. All.in all a very pleasant stay at Mitsis Family Village. One last thing , this a family resort so expect to see lots families , so if you are looking for a quieter option Mitsis have many options in the area.

Room: We had a room I think its called Superior with Pool. It has much space and a balcony with direct access to a shared pool. The room contains a minibar, which was refilled for free every 2 days and a save, which is also free of use. The bath is also big enough, but with an old-school bathtub. We had not a single ant in the room like other reviews state, but the untight door is true, so you can hear people walking by. The bed is okay. Service and Food: This category is a big big plus. Not only the staff is very friendly, but also many services are inclusive, like a shuttle to the beach. At the beach - I couldnt belive it at first - is also a bar, a Gyros-Counter and a Pizza-Counter - everything for free. At the hotel you also have a bar and an icecream & snack counter. The restaurant itself offers various food at the buffet. It is all good but there are not many differences between lunch/dinner or even other days. I expected a bit more variety regarding fish. Sometimes the buffet could be a bit warmer. Location: The whole place belongs to the MITSIS Group, so there are a couple of hotels but no seafront with cafés/shops etc. This is mostly integrated in each hotel. You will need to take the bus/car, if you want to visit other places at the island.

Exceeded Expectations—A Relaxing Family Escape We’ve just returned from a 5-night stay and genuinely wish we could have extended. This hotel surprised us in the best way. We’ve stayed in plenty of 5-star hotels over the years, and while this one may not have the same polish on paper, the experience was just as good—if not better in some ways. Yes, the rooms are a little dated, but both the Swim-Out Maisonette and the Standard Mountain View were fantastic: spacious, cool with excellent air conditioning, blackout blinds for a restful sleep, comfy beds, and a great shower. The buffet food was consistently tasty. It’s not à la carte, but there was always something fresh and enjoyable, with plenty of variety. Staff were outstanding—friendly, helpful, and constantly working to keep everything running smoothly. Their energy and kindness made a real difference. There were always plenty of sunbeds and shaded areas available, both by the pools and on the beach, which made relaxing effortless. The location is remote, but the local bus to the village is quick, reliable, and just €2 per adult—easy to navigate. Before arriving, I was anxious after reading mixed reviews, but we’ve been thoroughly impressed. A lovely, peaceful break that exceeded our expectations.

The hotel has spacious rooms with air-conditioning, soft bed, big terrace, coffee maker, good shower. The staff is professional, amiable, helpful. The water pools are nicely located. The bars are fine, the beach is big and clean with sun loungers and umbrellas (free of charge). The restaurant has a good choice of various dishes. The beverages are OK. The sea is fantastic with picturesque views to islands and mountains. Highly recommended. The only thing which must be changed: the smoking must be prohibited throughout the hotel and the beach area! There are a lot of smoking people, spoiling the air and poisoning the people!

We had a lovely stay at Mitsis Family Village. The views were stunning, especially from the infinity pool overlooking the sea. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the direct access to the pool from some rooms was a great bonus. The beach area was well organized with plenty of sunbeds. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Great value for money — would definitely come back!

We stayed here for 5 nights. The hotel itself was very good. I’d say it is a 4 star hotel or a very low 5 star hotel. Loads of amenities and the swimming pools were amazing. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I want to thank the housekeeping team who were amazing. The animation team were superb. Made sure everyone was enjoying their stay at this hotel. The reason for the 1 star is because as follows: - Room 2115 is quite possibly the worst room I’ve stayed in. The WiFi is non existent, after raising this issue with staff. Nothing was done to fix this. It kept getting brushed off. If you are staying in Room 2115 GOOD LUCK. Ask for a room change immediately. - The A/C was not working, struggled to sleep at night because of the heat. Once again I raised the issue with reception/staff. Nothing was done to fix it. Is this the level of service for a 5 star hotel? I think not. - Door for the balcony did not lock, didn’t even bother raising this issue with staff because nothing will be done to fix it. It’s a shame because everything outside of our room was great. Like I said if you get assigned Room 2115. Ask for a change.

The hotel is great, we are very satisfied. We stayed for 11 days in July. First we got very large room on the fifth floor but we change it because it was loud (central ac) than we got on the first floor and it was very nice and quiet. Great stuff, great people, very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. The entertainment was great, specially yoga guy and Maya from mini club. She is great with kids. Our daughter loved going to the mini club and disco. The beach is beautiful and the sea also with a lot of shells. We highly recommended this hotel.

An unforgettable experience – I can't say a single bad word about this place. The room was spotless, the cuisine absolutely delicious, the entertainment varied and fun, and the surroundings beautiful. But what truly makes your stay exceptional is the staff. Every single person goes above and beyond – they’re proactive, kind, always smiling, and ready to help at any moment. A special shout-out from my daughter to the lovely receptionist Sahar – they truly become a good friends

This was our second visit, and once again it was an amazing experience! The hotel, food, and service were all excellent. Warm greetings to all the wonderful staff a special thanks to Mr. Fares from the Beach Bar and Ramos from the animation team for his great energy and kindness my son Adam is asking me to take him back to Ramos !!. And a big thank you to Mr. Safoine from the kitchen for the welcoming smile and the preparation of our table for 10 persons every night and to all chefs for the amazing food ! We’ll definitely be back again soon

The hotel makes a great first impression – the exterior, lobby, and grounds are clean and well-maintained. After a long 12-hour journey, we arrived around 1am, it was nice to be offered something to eat at that time however we arrived to a room with poor AC, a clogged bathtub, and a faulty door lock. It took multiple visits to reception the next day to get a room change. The new room was better, but both rooms showed signs of wear and tear. The biggest issue throughout our stay was the inadequate AC – old systems made it hard to sleep comfortably. We also experienced ants, faulty lighting, dusty wardrobe shelves, and patchy WiFi. Pillows did not smell fresh and cushions had an unpleasant smell, they need a wash. Another downside was the cleanliness of the douches in our bathrooms – most had a green residue from not being washed thoroughly, while the douches in communal areas were spotless and shiny. Food-wise, the all-inclusive buffet offers variety, but after 13 nights it became repetitive. It would benefit from more diverse and flavorful options like Indian, Chinese, or Mexican dishes. Drinks options were good (non-alcoholic), delicious pina-coladas. Restaurant staff, chefs and waiters were lovely and accommodating. The animation team (especially Chico and Ramos) were fantastic, providing great activities for both kids and adults, though the evening program could be more streamlined as there are long waits between the kids and adults entertainment. The pool and beach facilities were clean and convenient though you do have to wake up very early to reserve a bed. Sometimes there is a wait for the lifts which are very small and only hold 6 people at a time. The spa experience was underwhelming – the space lacked ambiance and upkeep, no candles, the massage bed looked down onto rusty screws, relaxing music kept cutting, though the massage itself was okay. You have to pay to use the Jacuzzi, which was freezing cold! Not enjoyable at all, when I addressed this with the spa receptionist she made excuses that during hot weather they keep it cold even though it was not a hot day. I even advised her others had complained of the same. She asked when I was leaving and when I replied the next day that was the end of the conversation. So a real lack of wanting to put things right demonstrated. Spa was a real disappointment. Overall, this is not a true 5-star hotel, but is considered by locals as thee best hotel in Mahdia. It’s good for families and couples, we would come back but we’d recommend a shorter stay and now we have lowered our expectations of the place, it may be more enjoyable next time.

I had a great stay at Mövenpick Hotel Jumeirah Beach in Dubai. The location is amazing—right in the heart of JBR, just a short walk to the beach, shops and Marina, so everything is super convenient. The food at the hotel was really good, especially the breakfast which had a great mix of fresh options, plus some nice international choices. The themed food nights were very good too. I also want to give a special shoutout to Cherry, the hostess at the German bar in the hotel. She was honestly one of the highlights of our stay—always welcoming, friendly and professional. She really goes out of her way to make guests feel looked after and creates a great atmosphere. Overall, highly recommend this hotel for anyone staying in JBR—great location, great food and excellent service. I’ll definitely be back!

Loved it! I spent 6 days there and all i can say is that i can't wait to go back. I enjoyed every minute of it. All the staff were very helpful - starting from the front desk, to the restaurant staff, to the pool staff - all were ever-ready to take care of our needs. Special thanks to the Rwandan lady/chef (not sure!). Very attentive particularly when I was late for breakfast! Highly recommended!

Sifiso Khambule

The hotel is perfectly located, close walk to the beach, tram, and shops. The view from our room was amazing. The food is good and friendly staff. A special thanks to Htoo Aung, Zin, Victory and Aisha from the restaurant for the great service. The check-in was easy and pleasant thanks to Julia. The complimentary chocolate hour is a nice touch, Lucky served us with a smile at all times. We will definitely be back for another stay.

I had booked a room with half-board (breakfast and dinner) for my family of four. Since one child was exempted from payment, I understood that the booking covered two paying guests, and I had no issue paying for any additional meals if necessary. On our first night, dinning went smoothly. However, on the second night, we did not prefer the dinner theme and food options, so my younger child and I chose not to dine and waited outside the restaurant (we will eat somewhere else) while the rest of my family ate. What made the experience concerning was that one of the staff members was apparently observing us for some time. My daughter noticed and told me that the person had been “watching” us. Eventually, the staff member approached me, asking if I had eaten and then continued to ask where I lived and where I worked. I even had to show her my credit card charge of what I ate/room service I ordered earlier. This made my children and me feel quite uncomfortable. While I completely understand the staff’s responsibility to monitor dining guests, the way this situation was handled felt intrusive and inappropriate. I also want to clarify that I am happy to pay for meals we actually consumed, but I should not be questioned or made to feel pressured when choosing not to dine due to personal preference. This trip was for me and my child’s double birthday celebration and we end up unhappy that weekend. They did not see this birthdays right away in my booking request. On top of this the AC of the room first assigned to us did not work. We complained three times and onky on the third time they moved us to a room with AC. I hope this feedback helps improve guest experience and staff training on privacy and professional boundaries.

The hotel was excellent — clean, well-organized, and very welcoming. The facilities were well maintained, and the overall atmosphere made our stay both comfortable and enjoyable. A special thanks to Juliah, who was incredibly professional and helpful. She paid attention to even the smallest details and made sure we felt completely cared for during our time at the hotel. Her kindness and dedication truly made a difference in our experience. 🌟

Amazing hotel. Second time staying here and they honestly could not do enough for you to make your stay the best. If you’re looking for a relaxing break that’s not overly pretentious of an hotel I feel like this hotel gives you the right luxury feel, family orientated yet romantic for couples too. The perfect balance that’s 5 stars all around. The food quality with half board is exceptional. Zengo, maya and indya by vineet was unreal. The hotel caters for every specialist cuisine. I also want to pay special thanks to shiju in guest services and our cleaner sinam. Both were so kind, went over and beyond to make sure we were happy and has everything we needed. I hope le royal Meriden and Marriott hotels recognise how amazing these employees are at their job. They are a credit to the hotel. But that also goes for everyone working for the hotel.

As a Titanium Elite member and a frequent visitor to Dubai, I really enjoyed staying at this property for some specific reasons. Not about upgrades or extra access because I don’t see that much of a difference with or without status. Great location and close proximity to walk along JBR. The property’s many pools and restaurants seem to provide ample space and options but service is somewhat inconsistent. Breakfast buffet at Renaissance isn’t too bad but can be overwhelming when busy. Service gets slow and it’s always impersonal. Indya doesn’t live up to the hype as its sister restaurant at the Governor House. If you want Indian, then take the shuttle to Grosvenor House or walk down to JBR. Maya is a great spot. I seem to end up there almost daily for dinner and to unwind end of a busy day. Great Mexican food, fantastic cocktails, and really great service thanks to all the staff and managers. Whether you’re greeted by Komal or now also Yvonne, or served by Joyce or Darius, always assured to have a great evening. Rebekah is especially great!! They have a great management team with Jimena et al… Great gym on the property accessible 24 hrs. Not great for short notice bookings as the room prices are very high.

So impressed with this hotel. It is stunning!! From the moment of arrival, you are greeted at your car , your bags whisked away, reception staff efficiently assist your checkin. We were super early 5am from our flight and were given a complimentary room to use until our room was ready. The hotel itself, the restaurant, the rooms all high standard, immaculate. Food, service , drinks in our Club Room Package were amazing. Our suite (upgraded- thankyou Le Meridien) was luxurious, with evening turn down service, high class amenities, robes, Slippers, coffee machine & fresh fruit daily. The outside resort grounds, superb. You could easily spend a week here just using the hotel amenities and relaxing. I highly recommend this hotel. I have to make special mention, the staff - always helpful, smiling, nothing was ever a problem . Special mention to Nitvin our housekeeper, for all the extra great service of looking after our suite. Thankyou to the staff at reception who kindly ensured all our requests were met.

Second stay here, we came in 2022 and this stay was just as good, the service is unreal and the selection at dinner is just great. the staff are so friendly and were great with our two children. The housekeeping is great room always immaculate. The only negative (that was fixed while on property) was the childrens food around the pool, this seems to be hit and miss on how it is comunicated, meaning it took me 8 days around the pool until i was told that children under 4yo can eat around the pool for free! i meantioned this to the DM and it was quickly fixed and 500uaed removed from my room bill for food i had purchased for my children. Another great stay!

I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel in Dubai and it was truly an outstanding experience. From the very first moment of arrival to the day of departure, everything was flawlessly organized. The staff is exceptionally friendly, attentive, and always eager to go above and beyond – you immediately feel welcome and cared for. The rooms are modern, spotless, and offer breathtaking views of either the skyline. The luxurious amenities, incredibly comfortable beds, and beautifully designed bathrooms make the stay even more enjoyable. The pool area as well as the private beach are perfect for relaxation – with excellent service brought directly to your sunbed. The hotel’s restaurants are another highlight: an impressive variety of international and Middle Eastern dishes, all freshly prepared and served to the highest standard. The location is ideal for exploring Dubai’s famous attractions and exclusive shopping malls, yet the ambiance inside the hotel is peaceful and relaxing. All in all, a wonderful experience – I can highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Dubai and I am already looking forward to my next stay!
