Abbiamo soggiornato per due settimane a Sunny Bay e abbiamo trovato grande pulizia e cortesia del personale. La struttura è rinnovata, molto bella la piscina, il ristorante in riva al mare, la spiaggia con lettini e ombrelloni molto comoda, parcheggio proprio di fianco alla struttura, teli mare forniti dall’hotel. Posizione tranquilla, poca gente sulla spiaggia e silenzio sia di giorno che di sera (a parte il festival di fianco allo stadio). Le camere hanno un arredamento un po’ vecchiotto ma sono molto pulite. Il bagno in particolare avrebbe bisogno di un restyling. Cambio asciugamani giornaliero e lenzuola ogni 2 giorni. Personale delle pulizie molto disponibile e attento, personale di sala cortese, in particolare Eva, Ina e Florian sono stati davvero preziosi. Un particolare saluto a Lucy, la cagnolina della struttura che mi ha fatto sentire meno la mancanza dei miei pelosi a casa. Passiamo agli aspetti negativi: il menù dovrebbe essere un po’ più vario, è capitato più volte di non sapere cosa scegliere o che mancasse qualche ingrediente. Purtroppo a Creta ci sono tanti randagi (cani e gatti) e non mi è piaciuto l’atteggiamento della proprietà riguardo a questi cani (sopratutto), che venivano allontanati in malo modo. Io su questo tema sono piuttosto sensibile e avrei preferito una gestione diversa. Struttura molto consigliata.

Das Hotel hat eine sehr schöne Lage direkt am Meer. Die gesamte Anlage macht einen gepflegten Eindruck. Die Zimmer selbst haben uns nicht überzeugt, sie sind in die Jahre gekommen und wirken nicht sehr gemütlich. Wenn man sie moderner gestalten würde, wäre das Hotel wirklich super und hätte vier Sterne verdient.

Excellent staff friendly staff The only negative is that our room was a little dated/basic and it can do with a renovation, at least to update the bed. The walls are also not that well soundproofed, so your stay might depend on your neighbours.

Pour ceux qui aiment le calme sans pour autant être loin de tout, cet hôtel est un bon compromis. Le personnel est serviable et souriant tout en restant professionnel. L'hôtel est bien entretenu dans son ensemble. Il offre un accès à la plage et possède une piscine des plus appréciable. En revanche, le petit déjeuner sucré était bien moins fourni que le salé et légèrement moins qualitatif. Un grille-pain serait le bienvenu et peut-être qu'ouvrir le petit-déjeuner un peu plus tôt (en ce moment 8h-10h) serait plus pratique pour les excursions, mais celui-ci reste correct. La chambre était plutôt spacieuse avec baignoire et un balcon agréable avec vue partielle sur la piscine et la mer. Les lits sont confortables. L'hôtel possède un très bon rapport qualité-prix, nous y avons passé un excellent séjour et le recommandons vivement.
