Beautiful relaxing hotel

Stayed for a week, in a beautiful location, town was quiet however expected this time of year. Lovely sandy beach nearby. All staff were friendly and helpful, rooms modern and cleaned regularly. Really enjoyed both breakfast & evening meals. Hotel maybe just a little too quiet for us but otherwise perfect

We had a wonderful stay at the Ariadne Beach Hotel. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Our room was clean and well equipped with terrific views of Mirabello Bay. We were half-board and the food was fantastic and the waiting staff just lovely. The beautiful Gargadoros beach is only a short stroll away on which we spent many happy days. We will definitely be returning!

Good stay for agile folks

Breakfast was great, beds were great, balcony and check in. But, there are many steps, not that great for older people. Some steps were marked, but not everywhere, not consistent. Not safe in dark if you are not familiar. Different safety standards. Hard to get to by car, and not much parking is available. Friendly and helpfull staff.

The barman at the pool bar was rude and impolite and had rude comments while serving something like a bottled water, which was included in the package. I asked for more coffee and he refused. Other than that everyone is very friendly and very good. Thanos and Clevis at the beach bar were very friendly. Made great drinks. The a la carte restaurant had great service and food. The buffet got a bit boring afterwards. I recommend taking ultra all inclusive. Worth the extra amount

Terrible experience, never again!

One of the worst hotels I have visited, terrible experience. To give you a bit of context, I went there for 5 nights with my pregnant wife, and we were looking for relaxation. Positive: - Friendly staff at the restaurant and the ones responsible for the cleaning of the rooms. Always available for help. - The view is nice Negative: - The rooms are terrible. Old furniture, ants everywhere, and absolutely not representative of the pictures. They are lying about it! We had to pay extra charge to the reception to have a better room since our room was not what we expected. Plus, we felt we paid too much to have such a terrible room. - The reception was not friendly at all! They kept on finding excuses instead of finding a solution to make us feel welcomed and comfortable (my wife is pregnant). - They lie about the beach. There aren’t any sunbeds available, don’t let the pictures fool you. You need to pay 12€ for 2 sunbeds per day! Crazy since it’s a 4 star hotel. - The sunbeds by the pool are very dirty and there is not a sufficient number of them to welcome everyone in the hotel! - The breakfast is bad. Same food, and most of the fruits come from a can. - We had to pay 15€ to use a safe for 5 days (the information was given at the checkout!!! - And last but not least, the shower room. It was dirty, smells horrible (mold), and we can only use it for 30 minutes. I will never ever come back to this hotel again. It’s definitely not a 4 star hotel, a bad 3 star at the very best.

Es war wirklich toll - besonders für all inclusive! Die Lage ist super, die Anlage sehr sauber und das Personal super freundlich. Das Buffet ist nicht riesig, aber muss es auch nicht sein. Dafür ist das Essen wirklich sehr lecker. Was wir besonders gut finden ist, dass Lebensmittel, die z.B. beim Frühstück nicht verwertet wurden (Pilze, Wurst, Aufschnitt etc.) beim Mittag oder Abendessen in Salaten oder anderen Gerichten genutzt werden. Man merkt einfach, dass es ein Team gibt, das sich Gedanken macht. Man muss sich darauf einstellen, dass man laufen muss, aber Gepäck wird bei der An- und Abreise mit einem Golfcar gebracht. Gleichzeitig bekommt man einen kleine Führung mit den wichtigsten Orten des Hotels. Der Pool ist direkt am Essensaal, was vielleicht erstmal ungewohnt ist, aber zum Essen ist es super schön und man „darf“ erst ins Wasser, wenn das Frühstück fast vorbei ist. Wem das nicht gefällt, kann den Pool auf der anderen Seite nutzen. Man hat es etwas weiter zur Poolbar und der Pool ist max. 1,40 m tief, aber dafür ist es ruhiger. Die „Häuschen“ sind sehr schön. Es hat fast etwas von einer Ferienwohnung - also sehr privat und man fühlt sich für sich. Unten im Ort ist ein Supermarkt, der eine große Auswahl hat, nicht nur ein kleiner Markt. Allerdings muss man die Einkäufe irgendwie hoch und wieder runter bekommen, da man über einen doch sehr steilen Hügel muss um zum Hotel zu kommen. Wir hatten ein Auto, das hat super funktioniert. Parkplätze gab es auch genug! (Mai)
