We rested at the Corali hotel in the first half of September. The season was well chosen. The sea is warm, clean, sunburn is excellent, sunny, not very hot. I will not describe all the delights of the island. I recommend visiting it at least once. See ancient history, visit the caldera of a real volcano, sail on a boat on the nearby islands, ride a bike, climb mountains, see animals and birds in nature at arm's length, enjoy Greek cuisine in the taverns of the island. All this is unforgettable. Rest on the island is calm, suitable for couples, as well as for those who like to explore unfamiliar places on their own, drive on their own.
And now I want to write separately about the hotel itself. Yes, it is clear that the hotel is not 5 *. It is clear that they were warned that the second line. BUT!
Despite the quite tolerable room, the beautiful well-groomed territory, relative cleanliness, the hotel left memories with an unpleasant aftertaste. The food is good overall. We took HB (half board). Breakfast from day to day finished off with monotony (and we rested for 12 days). Every morning: scrambled eggs, boiled eggs. fried bacon, "rubber" scrambled eggs, fried tomatoes, milk with several types of cereal and yogurt. They tried to take different types of food, combine them, but already in a week everything was fed up, they could not look. Dinners - yes, good, varied. desserts, ice cream, fruits. Again a big BUT! All drinks are paid for dinner. Fig would be with him. Were ready to pay. The first time we took a glass of red wine. OPS! The wine was diluted in taste and clearly overpriced. The second time we tried orange juice. There was clearly more water in it than juice. A glass of this juice cost us 3 euros in this hotel. Not bad for diluted juice! This discouraged us from taking drinks at dinner. Only water could be drunk without fear, it is difficult to dilute it. Another great feature of the hotel restaurant. These are his waiters. We have never met such rudeness anywhere on vacation in hotels. The waiter comes up, I tell him: "...... good evening. . . hello, please. . . etc. " I speak English quite well. In response, I hear: "At first! " "First! " A teacher at school in the lower grades allowed herself to talk to me like that. After his "opening speech" the waiter began to read the notation that we should have found a table for two, and we, those times, sat down at a table for 4 persons. And this is considering that we first appeared in the restaurant, not knowing all their rules, the hall was packed to capacity, and we just sat down at a free table, there was no choice. It was not clear who was the guest here, and who was the attendants, for a minute. Every evening we experienced small unpleasant moments from communicating with the waiter. I will not list them all. In the end, we moved to the other side of the hall, which was served by another waiter. The same story. They look at you as a source of tips, almost with hatred. When we stopped ordering their diluted drinks, we stopped noticing us at all, lost the remnants of politeness. None of them greet, does not smile (unless the tip will fall). The most boorish of them is the fat Alano, who looks like an alien from the French comedy "Soup with Cabbage", if anyone has seen it. Our new acquaintances from the hotel also complained about his behavior. Nothing better than an elderly gray-haired waiter (I don’t remember his name). Severe, tough, like a mentor. Who taught them this?

And so, wow hotelchik, for 4 * will do. Well, those who do not like to go far from the hotel will have problems with the beach. You will have to go along the road without a pedestrian sidewalk, although transport does not run so often, but this is unpleasant.
