Attention! Tourist deception, food shortages, and stinginess at Sokol Resort!
Don't make the mistake of wasting your money on this hotel. You bought into the advertising of a "family resort with free sunbeds and all-inclusive, " but in reality, you got total skimping on guests, rude treatment, and deception from the management (owner Galina).
Here are the real facts that tour operators will never tell you.
Hunger and a shameful shortage of fruit: The "all-inclusive" system here is a sham. At dinner, expensive fruits (watermelon, pineapple) are cut in meager quantities and brought out only just before opening time. If you arrive 40-45 minutes after the start time, you'll find empty trays. The staff deliberately doesn't refill the menu, leaving only cheap apples and lemons. They force people who paid huge amounts of money for a trip to fight over a piece of watermelon and beg food from the cooks!
Beach and sunbed scam: The tour description and vouchers say "sunbeds included. " Upon arrival, it turns out the hotel was simply greedy and didn't pay the municipality for the beach rental! The hotel guide brazenly lies to our faces, telling us we have to buy sunbeds with cash (€10-€15 per day), collect receipts, and the tour operator will supposedly "return the money someday. " It's a complete scam; no refunds are given.
Terrible and dangerous entry into the sea: Damnoni Beach near the hotel and the neighboring Plakias Beach (which translates as "plate") are completely unsuitable for comfortable swimming. A slippery, hard tectonic rock plate with boulders and cracks runs along the entire shore underwater. Your feet sink sharply into the coarse, shifting gravel, easily injuring or dislocating your feet. Entering the water is impossible without hard, rubber coral sandals. Plus, because of the mountain river flowing into it, the water near the shore is icy, and in the morning my legs instantly cramp up.
This hotel is designed for one-time tourists who want to squeeze as much money out of them as possible in a single stay. The pretty pictures online are a lie. Avoid Sokol Resort if you don't want to ruin your vacation at the expense of your money!
