"We had a wonderful stay in the split level sea view 2 bedroom. The only possible downside was that the hotel is expanding and you can hear construction noise during the day. It didn’t bother us. The pool is really lovely. It looks like next year there will be two pools and a hot tub. I would stay here again. We were a 7 min walk from the grocery stores / bakeries. We were about a 12-15 min walk from the city center of kissamous. The restaurants by the water are lovely especially Tavern 1960. We...

I enjoyed the pool and the location but sadly would not be back."
