Great experience with Efi

Great experience with therapist Efi. Would recommend! :)

TripAdvisor Review
Nice stay

Hotel is very clean , rooms cleaned daily . Room at the back of the hotel wasn’t great a view of the road and apartments also very noisy Lorrie’s and big men through the night didn’t sleep well. Room itself was ok. Food is beautiful smaller selection but always fresh in the main restaurant. Greek nights are the best with the gyros and bbq food. Cafe snacks were lovely during the day bagels and toasties. Small pools could always get a sun bed however for a five star hotel they’re not comfortable ones they need padding on them. Drinks - all drinks in the cafe bar are table service , the staff there are wonderful but overworked more staff needed. Worst hotel ever to get a drink as service is so slow waiting so long between drinks. When we arrived gone midnight no food available which is poor we were directed to walk out into the street to buy a gyros! I have never experienced this in a hotel as a late arrival, very poor considering we paid a lot fully inc . In the room no instructions of how the hotel works where things are . Found out three days later they have an app where you could order pool and beach service. The beach was lovely always a bed, sea wasn’t the cleanest a lot of plastic In it so sad to see. You cannot order food down to the beach you have to pay ? ! You have to cross a very busy road to get to the beach . Very central location 15 minute walk into rethmyno old town which is beautiful . Entertainment was ok lots of musicians Greek night was the best !
