I had a rest in July in Grecotel Olympian Oasis. A good hotel, really very good : ) At the Araxos Airport - we were greeted kindly and with a smile. Araxos is a military airport that is open during the high season. It's tiny, but manages nonetheless. We drove to the hotel for about 50 minutes, no one was brought in - the whole bus went to our hotel. Settled, respectively, is also not fast, but in principle not tiring. 1. Hotel. Clean, nice and comfortable (many tourists said the hotel is a little old in structure, but I didn't feel that way). Everywhere is the main building, even small bungalows, or 2-storey buildings, of course, here everyone has their own tastes, but I love just such hotels, without a huge main building. There is always a Russian-speaking representative at the reception, I think this is a huge plus, because when problems arise, you can approach yourself, and not disturb the girls from the company with translations and your problems (minor). The girls are generally great, they sit all day, solving questions from guests. 2. Territory. Green, but mostly because of the bushes, there is no grass at all. Very huge, you can walk in the evenings. Horses live right at the exit from the hotel (from the common area), you can ride a horse or a carriage (for a fee), a little further to the left there are mud springs (with a smell : -)) 3. Number. Accommodation in the room was basically good. The room was cleaned every day, but because of the sandy beach, the sand was constantly in the room. The view directly to the sea is amazing. Close to the reception and the beach, and to the restaurant. Beach towels are changed every 2 days. 4. Sea and Beach. Amazingly beautiful and warm. The sand and sunset are fantastic, regular guests say that this is where the beach is considered the best. During my stay, the sea began to storm, slightly, but one day there were very strong waves - however, everyone swam, and the children too. There were enough delights and squeaks: )5. Animation. Animators - there are Russian guys: Zhenya and Alexei. But basically the animation is more focused, as it seemed to me, on the Germans and Greeks. There are few Russians, they say there were a lot of them in June. The performances are all interesting, thanks to the animators for both children's shows and shows for the adult generation. 6. Hotel location. More suitable for those who do not want to go out into the city - because there is nothing nearby. For us, this turned out to be a plus, because we just needed to relax, in silence without a city. The nearest village of Arkudi is 1.5 km (there are supermarkets, a fish tavern, I really liked it with a beautiful view of the sea, Gastuni 15 km (there is a pharmacy, a mobile phone shop, an ATM) a taxi can be called at the reception. 7. Food is generally gorgeous , every day is a "holiday of the belly". As a result, I ate a bunch of kilograms. : ))) We didn't have enough banal cheap instant coffee - it's not there! 8. There are excursions. I went to Zakynthos (ferry, bus, boat, bus, boat, ferry). Amazing beach, I have never seen such beauty. 10. Internet. Only at the reception, not in the rooms. As a result: I told my vacation I liked the hotel, the vacation was a success. If you are looking for an active holiday, then this is not the place. Here everyone is with children, and more than 80% of couples with two children or more. There are practically no young people. This is a family hotel. And there is everything for children there! Next time I will come here with my family.
