Aristoteles Holiday Resort & Spa

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The food was amazing, with a great variety of options, and I truly enjoyed the meals here. The service was excellent, the staff was very welcoming, and everyone greeted us with a smile. The pool was lovely and especially great for families with kids since it wasn’t too deep. The sea was beautiful, and our room was clean and comfortable. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this place! 🤍

So, the hotel is ... mediocre. It is located on a hill, 5-10 min walking from the beach, depending on which part you are accommodated, the beach is also reachable by a tunnel, and you can never know that form the pictures or the description in internet. In the whole complex there are cars, and you cannot leave kids around 7-8 years to move alone. The restaurant is located in the middle of the hill, and you have to climb steep road in order to go for breakfast, lunch or dinner. More disturbing facts are that when you get your beach towels, you need to pay 1 eur if you'd like them changed 😆 The beach is overcrowded and sunbeds are very near to next ones...no privacy or relaxed time is possible. Then, if you want espresso or frape, it is on a special price of "only" 3 eur for guests of aristoteles. If you like ice cream outside lunch or dinner at the restaurant, it is also paid. Last, but not least...food is near to horrible - everyday same things, and 99% is processed...even the pizza. So, for someone who travels a lot to similar concept for hotels, i wouldn't come back. On the positive side, Maria at the reception is a great asset and professionalist. Rooms are big and clean, but thanks to Maria who saw our booking was directly through the hotel system, she decided to upgrade us in a maisonette, otherwise the family room looked really "not nice" for it's price. Long story short: a no go place

We had a nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were really big and spacious and the views were nice. The staff were polite and nice and provided information about the hotel. The beach area was also nice, the water was clear and there weren’t many rocks, just tiny pebbles and mostly sand. The pool was nothing special, but it was a bit shallow. Not bad though! Same for the food. The restaurant was nice and there were options for kids and adults. I like that they served pizza and fries every day, but sadly there wasn’t enough Greek cuisine. The all-inclusive package was good, and the cocktails and drinks were great. Overall it was nice and i recommend it!

The hotel beach has rocks at the entrance and only a few meters until the sea gets deep, most people stay in that area. So it can be hard for people who can’t swim, because it gets very crowded near the shore. If you go to the beach early in the morning you can enjoy the sea without many people. The sea is calm and it’s easy to swim, there are almost no waves in the morning. The room cleaning can be done late in the day even around 4pm, because the cleaning team is small and there are many rooms they need to take care of. In my opinion this is very inconvenient since most people rest in the rooms from lunch until 4/5PM when the heat is at its peak. There are a lot of bugs, mosquitoes and wasps all around the resort and even inside the rooms if you are not very careful. The AC in the rooms is not powerful enough and the phone in the room is old and doesn’t work well, you can’t even call reception if something happens. Between meals there is only the pool bar which offers some basic snacks and dry sandwiches. The desert menu is also kind of basic, they have almost always the same things everyday and if you want some free of charge ice-cream you have to wait in a big line. I think it would be good if there would be someone serving the ice cream, because some people just make a mess around that area. The food served at breakfast, lunch and dinner is tasty and you have a lot of options to choose from. The views from the hotel are also beautiful and there are many activities that can be done at the hotel like tennis, volleyball, basketball, spa, ping pong etc

A wonderful 8-day stay ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We stayed at this hotel for 8 days and, overall, we had a really enjoyable experience. We travelled from Tirana, Albania, so the journey was a little long for us, but once we arrived, we were very happy with our choice. Beach & Sea The beach was beautiful, clean and well maintained. It is a pebble beach and was included in the all-inclusive package. We especially appreciated the friendly beach staff, who regularly came around during lunchtime to keep the area clean. The only things we would improve are the sunbeds, which were placed quite close to each other, and the fact that there were no snacks available directly at the beach. Food & Drinks The food was very good and there was a good variety overall. Since we stayed for 8 days, some dishes were repeated a few times, but they were still tasty and well prepared. One thing we really loved was the atmosphere in the restaurant. The staff were always smiling and welcoming, and the restaurant was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Staff & Service The staff were definitely one of the highlights of our stay. Whether at the restaurant, reception, pool bar or beach bar, everyone was friendly, welcoming and always willing to help. Their positive attitude made our stay even more enjoyable. Room & Cleanliness Our room was located higher up in the resort, so we had to walk uphill to reach it. However, this was not a problem for us because we already knew about the layout of the hotel before booking. The room itself was comfortable, clean and well maintained. Activities We travelled as a large group of 7 families, and we had a great time playing volleyball and tennis on many days. We really appreciated that these activities were available free of charge. It was a great way for our group to spend time together and have fun. Overall Overall, we really enjoyed our 8-day stay and would happily recommend this hotel. The friendly staff, good food, cleanliness, beautiful beach and free sports activities made our holiday a very pleasant experience. The main things we would improve are having snacks available at the beach, spacing the sunbeds a little further apart, and including ice cream with every meal in the all-inclusive package. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel, especially to families looking for a comfortable and enjoyable holiday.
