Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The location couldn't be better, right next to the beautiful beach in Perivolos with a variety of nearby restaurants. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was super friendly. The only downside was the limited dining options, but overall, it was a great experience.
This hotel offers a relaxing stay with its private outdoor jacuzzi and great beachfront location. I found the service to be top-notch, but the dining options were a bit limited. The Wi-Fi was not included in the price, which was slightly disappointing.
