I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although comfortable and spacious with private patios and great views, needed a slight refurbishment and some safety corrections. Unfortunately, the persistent awful smell from bad drains affected our stay, but the technical service addressed it promptly by the end.

My stay at the Grecotel Exclusive Resort was quite pleasant. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, although they could use a bit of renovation. The hotel's small garden, terrace, and private pool added a nice touch to the charm of the accommodation. However, it was noticeable that many families with small children left unattended, leading to occasional disruptions from crying and screaming.

I stayed at this hotel located well back into the complex away from reception and the pool areas. The beach areas are close by. The rooms were very expensive compared to previous years but were spacious enough, not excessively large.

The hotel had a great view nestled in the woods, but the rooms lacked cleanliness and were plagued by unpleasant smells from bad drains. It was quite pricey compared to past years. The service was friendly but had some issues, and trying to get evening drinks outside seemed challenging. The location was superb, overlooking Poseidon Temple, and offering tranquility. The dining experience was crowded indoors but had a fantastic selection of food.
