We rested in this hotel from August 29 to September 7.2012. 2 adults + 2 children (6 and 8 years old). Tour operator Mouzenidis Travel. For those who are too lazy to read the entire review, I’ll write right away: THE HOTEL PULLS FOR 4 * with an interference..... and this is a family hotel!!! ! go there only with children. couples in love, you will go crazy there from the noise of the kids !!!!
And now in more detail....
So, for starters, I’ll write the following: we’ve been vacationing abroad for a long time and for many years. Sometimes twice a year))) we’ve been to a lot of places, I won’t list them. - this is completely different both in terms of service and price in principle too... I will only compare with countries where I fly no more than 3-4 hours...

I'll start with the flight of the Greek aster))) I certainly won't fly))) not only is the "a 320" plane as always not convenient (I always have nowhere to put my legs and, fortunately, I'm not flying to Bali))) but only 3 hours) so they are still quite old. the seats - I have never seen such skinned ones anywhere. they feed at all with a bang-rice opened, but it just dried up with a crust. they didn’t eat there and not back on the plane. But takeoff and landing are very soft and this is the most important thing... well, by the way, the plane is not the main thing in the rest))))
I’ll immediately unsubscribe about the muzenidis in terms of organization, well done here. We don’t have any questions for them at all.
from the airport to go no more than 40 minutes. Buses are certainly better than planes))) very well-groomed and fresh. We arrived at the hotel at 9 am. They didn’t give us a room right away. They explained that they had rooms only at 12 noon. ((it’s very convenient from a night flight, and even with small children. they really said you can go have breakfast and, in principle, use everything without a number for now. well, we naturally went... in jeans and sweaters....in short, after walking in the heat for an hour we are in changed clothes and went to the sea in the common toilet . . what to do ??? ? they didn’t give the room at 12. saying that they didn’t have time to clean it and we had to wait another hour. an hour later they came and the room was ready, but in the building near the road. we were offered to wait another hour and they gave the very first number to the sea. 723. walk from the number to the sea for 20 seconds. We lived in a family.
The temperature is 28-30 in the daytime. . we got used to the sandy beaches for a couple of days. but we got used to nothing. on the right there lives a colony of hedgehogs under the stones. but this is a different hotel... in the evening the wave was rising, but it only amused us even more))) water bike on the left near the beach-50 euro 10 min. on the right at a cheaper hotel (mine portis beach) is also 50 euros but already 15 minutes and more nimble!

The rooms, well, they barely stretch for 3. I didn’t see the suites. Therefore, I won’t say (but I regretted not taking it). But I saw the economy-tin tin !!! ! I only saw such rooms in Russia in simple hotels. in our bath the shelf is crumbling from rust. but the bath is new! the tables and cabinets are old and crooked. in short, there is nothing. there are not many places either. there are few Russian channels. at night in the toilet! but this is not ice at all !!! ! I personally don’t want to bring such gifts home at all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Room cleaning for 5! they gave tea every other day for 4 euros. they cleaned it with dignity. the bar is replenished every day. two small bottles of water, juice, and a couple of cans of beer. except for the cockroaches, then I put it maybe by the number 4ku . . but the cockroaches....the first time in all my trips abroad....
Meals: 4. no more. every day the same thing. little pastries. sometimes lamb is delicious. sometimes fish. a little fruit. there are not so many tables and there is no abundance of food. . but!! ! There is a restaurant on the floor. Those from the suite and above can eat in it for free. Those below cannot. Pay 20 euros for an adult and 10 for a child. They will let you in. There is good seafood (octopus, shrimp, ) delicious fish to order. table. in general, very tasty. at least once, but it’s worth going for the money. red label is quite. not even diluted. vodka they really don’t really have 40 degrees there))) non-alcoholic mojito is done like this: they throw a mint leaf. for tea. as someone advised . . nothing has changed... in principle, why change... poured there without problems. ice cream after dinner 4 view a. delicious. but we went to other hotels nearby. there are the same bars and the same 4 types of ice cream))) apparently it is everywhere on the cassandra))) but after 23 hours everything is paid! cook eureka))))
We liked the staff and the service. They will explain everything. . so here is the animation of modlodts of course. They are engaged in children! sometimes they sculpt turtles with them on the beach. sometimes in the playroom. Some days we didn’t see children for several hours. water polo! water aerobics! etc. but is it possible to stir up our moneybags. sometimes it’s a pity even the animators. they run after everyone there and no one participates. the only minus is the monotony of the program. everything is the same! in the evening at the children’s disco, at least the music was changed! after the disco, the children go to watch cartoons in the cinema and sleep))) they were at an adult disco once. and there were only 5 of us. we didn’t go anymore... they strain a little Greek evenings. noisy and stupidly bring a whole herd of tourists from other hotels . . The musicians sang on Saturday. The Russian soloist was super well done! Somehow the guy played the violin - also super!

the territory of the hotel is small. but it didn’t bother us. it really bothered us for two whole days the stench near the dining room! they had something rotten there. most likely fish! and it stank so 20 meters away.
we rented a car at the hotel. I’ll tell you right away who wants to save money, take it in the city. It’s twice as cheap. In the hotel from 65 euros to 150 per day. The mileage limit is only if you take it for one day (300 km no more) extra km fine! !! we rode all over kasandra!!! other days we went to sithonia! super! pines! sea! mountains! serpentine! air! beaches are crazy and beautiful! panoramas! taverns and just very beautiful bays! the length of the way through sithonia is about 212 km but you will ride all day! we recommend! by nature I’ll put a solid 10k in general !!!! ! magical !!! ! rode to the city of waterfalls Edessa. children in the water park. next to the hotel. no more than 20 minutes by car, it’s cool. though before that we were in the water park in Mallorca, that’s where it’s cool, of course! not like Greek !! ! amusement park across the road! only about 14 euros with adults. and 8 per child! and at least ride everywhere! though at "rush hour" the queues are insane! and so in the park it’s really nothing. nowhere. the taverns are all delicious! the Greeks are great in this regard! a big bow to them. they fed us heartily for the whole vacation! the farther from the resort area, the cheaper. . which is over 100 years old. sit down. the owner Petras fed us like this!!!!! and shrimp and lamb and pork. all kinds of snacks. cheeses! lemonades. fruits and whatnot! touched us with his intimate conversation. asked us to leave an autograph in the album. and in total they ate for four for 43 euros! almost burst! closer to the sea they ate about the same thing in the resort town but already for 100 euros. not far from Potidea Pelas there is a sea restaurant "Marina". very fine cuisine! but immediately I say, probably the most expensive in the area. But Greeks eat a lot there! they really know the fish!!!
We didn’t go to Kastoria for a fur coat, where all the tourists are taken. I talked with the locals. Further along the casandra, after about 20 km, there is a town with many fur boutiques. As we were told from the same manufacturers. were already satisfied at the hotel! a trip to Kastoria takes the whole day by the way ((((maybe there is more choice... I don’t know....
The hotel has an excellent wine cellar with an excellent selection of wine! We also took cheap cosmetics on olives nearby in the market - it helped with burns with a bang!! ! shampoos. (in the room there is free liquid soap and the same shampoo)

I took a ticket from the hotel to Athos. If anyone wants to visit the council, write notes with names in advance. You can give them away in any temple. But only in Russian they take money for this. so make it on time. the price of a trip for a day is at least 300 euros. depending on how many people will be gathered. video is prohibited on Athos ! ! photos are possible but not inside the temple. I won’t tell more about Athos.
In general, our vacation turned out to be excellent. Probably because we didn’t get hung up on some troubles and inconveniences. Although they are in any vacation))) the main thing is that the children are happy!
General impressions-Greece and nature-super! The hotel is so-so! But certainly not for the declared money. We paid 6 thousand USD for 10 days for a vacation with children at that time! The hotel is not worth this money. Someone writes that it’s like 5 stars! guys! ))) you haven’t been in real 5 stars yet. I even envy you !!! ! everything is ahead of you.
