Agapi Beach Resort - Premium All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"Food excellent, staff lovely, so friendly and helpful. Room not as described with a sea view but a questionable side view despite ringing the hotel to check before booking. Had poor weather on last couple of days and rain came into the from under the front door soaking all bags. When i mentioned it to reception she asked how deep the water was!! but in general it was a lovely 4 star hotel and I would recommend it."
