We stayed in one of the double rooms with swim up pool and it was incredible. Really clean, and pool was lovely.
The staff here are all so incredibly friendly and helpful you as much as they can.
The all inclusive buffet is a little repetitive but we were lucky enough to be able to dine in the a la carte restaurants due to our room type. The a la carte restaurants are amazing and the food is really delicious.
Such a lovely place, and there isn't any issue with getting sunbeds either!!!
Definitely recommend
Had a lovely holiday here and would recommend. Rooms were clean, staff were friendly and the food was great. I usually find with all inclusive food repetitive but many of the food options changed daily and had something for everyone! We had 2 meals at both a la carte restaurants which were both delicious, especially the sushi which was to die for. All the service was also great; workers work super hard and long hours but were still exceptional, especially Mannos in the lobby bar!
Location was great and the hotel had easy access to shuttles from the hotels to various other places on the island at reasonable prices. Definitely worth going to see the butterfly valley! Ixia itself had everything you need and the beach was stunning especially at sunset. Though bring sea shoes for the rocks if you're going in the sea!
Rooms could maybe do with updating slightly but that's the only small downfall as they were super clean so I didn't mind so much.
Just as a side note If anyone comes across the super skinny cats across from the Spar supermarket sign and next to the bestway rent a car service, please feed them! They're super friendly and we made an effort to go feed them every day bless them!
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! Upon arrival, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary upgrade to a suite with a private pool, which made our vacation even more special.
The food was delicious with a great variety, the service was excellent, and the staff were always friendly and welcoming. The location is also great close to Rhodes Town and the main attractions, while still being quiet and relaxing.
We would definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel!
One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. Every member of the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful – from the reception team to the restaurant staff and housekeeping.
The hotel is conveniently located just a short drive from the airport. As an adults-only resort, it offers a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, even during the peak season.
The food and drinks included in the all-inclusive package were excellent, and we especially appreciated that the minibar in our room was restocked daily free of charge as part of the all-inclusive service.
There were always plenty of sun loungers available on the hotel's private beach. The sea was crystal clear, and although the beach is pebbly, water shoes are recommended. Alternatively, you can enter the sea comfortably from the pier using the steps.
All towels, including beach towels, were replaced daily. Every evening, there was live music and entertainment by the main pool, creating a wonderful atmosphere.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are already looking forward to returning to this luxurious resort.
Beautiful hotel with huge potential — excellent 4 experience, but not quite 5**
We have just returned from a week at The Ixian Grand & All Suites, staying in a Garden Suite with a private pool.
Overall, we had a lovely holiday and would recommend the hotel. It is a beautiful property, the setting is stunning, and there are some fantastic features — but there are a few areas where the experience fell short of what we would expect from a 5-star hotel.
Our biggest disappointment was the condition and maintenance of the room. Our phone didn’t work for the duration of our stay, and the maintenance team came to our room on two separate days, spending several hours each time trying to fix the issue. As they needed to work in both the bathroom and the main area of the suite, we didn’t feel comfortable using the room while they were there and had to leave — even having to use the public toilets to get changed. This was particularly frustrating as we had booked a private pool suite specifically to enjoy the space and privacy of the room.
Unfortunately, during the repair work the toilet was damaged and needed fixing afterwards, although it was still not quite right. The bath jets also didn’t work for the first few days, but this was eventually repaired.
The repairs also seemed to cause another issue with the lighting, which then didn’t work properly. By this point, after reporting so many problems, we just didn’t have the energy to keep going back to reception to report another issue.
The room itself was spacious and beautiful, with amazing high ceilings and a fantastic private pool. However, the finishing touches were lacking in places, especially in the bathroom where there were visible paint marks and areas that looked unfinished. The wooden fixtures around the pool area also needed attention and really let the overall appearance of the suite down.
Unfortunately, our final evening at Alazonia was disappointing. We brought my Dad and his partner because we had spoken so highly of the restaurant, so it was a shame that dinner took over 2 hours. The mains took an extremely long time to arrive, drinks were slow to be replenished, and one dessert was missing (mine — but after waiting so long, I didn’t want to chase it). It was a disappointing end to what had otherwise been a great experience there.
The entertainment was quite limited. The Rock Night was fantastic and was definitely a highlight, but for a hotel of this size it would have been nice to have some daytime entertainment or more atmosphere, as the hotel was very quiet.
The bar staff were excellent — friendly, attentive and always welcoming. The private pool was amazing and really made the stay special. One thing we did miss was not being able to order all-inclusive drinks to the room, especially with a private pool suite. We ended up buying drinks ourselves for the room. The quality of the drinks overall was also disappointing for a 5-star hotel.
The spa was extremely expensive, but the quality of the massages was excellent. The hot stone massage I had and the back, shoulders and head massage my husband had were both outstanding. Matilda and Eva (or Eve) were incredibly skilled and the quality of their treatments was fantastic.
Overall, despite the negatives, we had an excellent holiday. The hotel is beautiful, the location is wonderful, and there is so much potential. In our opinion, it is an excellent 4-star hotel but not quite a 5-star experience yet. With some attention to room maintenance, finishing details, entertainment and service consistency, it could easily become something truly exceptional.
We would still recommend the hotel and would happily consider returning.
