We enjoyed our stay there . The staff was very friendly and helpful. Nice quiet big pool with a bar and food options. Great location Easy to get to the airport Easy to get to the ferry terminal And tons of restaurants around Maybe 7 minutes walk to the supermarket if needed The sea is right there too , can see from the balcony though the bigger well organized with food and all beaches are a drive away. But a short drive . If you just want a beach without restaurants- it’s right there , cross the street .

Excelente, regresamos aquí después de 36 años en nuestra luna de miel. Algunas cosas cambiaron pero la atmósfera es la misma y nos gustó reencontrarnos en Nea Macri, hermosa playa pero si quieres la mejor tendrás que caminar unos 1000 metros por la rambla donde hay excelentes restaurantes sobre la playa. Lo único que critico del hotel es que tienes que subir y bajar 2 pisos por escalera en el área izquierda del hotel. Desayuno y alberca excelente también. Volveremos pero antes de otros 36!!

Property was right near the beach and close to restaurants and shops. The only downside was we stayed on the second floor of the older part of the property and getting to our room was not an easy task as there were only stairs to get to the 2nd floor and a few ramps just to get to these steps. For anyone disabled, this would not be suitable.

This property has been around for a long time. It shows its age, but is well maintained and the included breakfast is quite good. No toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner or body lotion provided in the rooms, so bring your own if you are staying for longer than a few nights. Pool area is lovely, but be aware that this property hosts events. While we were there a large children’s birthday party happened, so the music was loud all afternoon and there were a lot of people on the grounds. This hotel is located across the street from the ocean, beaches and on the main strip were there are many restaurants to choose from.

Simple, clean, great pool, good continental breakfast. Great walkable location near the beach and restaurants. Small elevator - like most boutique hotels in Europe- but should be prepared to take baggage up stairway. Had trouble with mosquitoes in our room early October- left the sliding door vented for air overnight- wrong move. Would definitely stay there again- good for the price.

We booked the hotel at the last minute, only a few minutes after booking, when we saw the room we canceled it and left. The rooms are dirty, lack of maintenance, but mainly you can smell the humidity and mold, our room also smelled of cigarettes. In addition, the hotel did not agree to the cancellation of the reservation, even if it lasted only a few minutes, and demanded payment of the full price. Probably the worst experience with accommodation in Greece...

It was very smelly (septic)! Bedding and curtains tattered. Trees on property were overgrown blocking view of pool and the sea. Our room had a “view” of the back of the restaurant, we paid extra to have a pool view. Bathroom door didn’t close. Furniture was water stained and warped. Listing on hotels.com said rooms were soundproofed and they were far from it! Don’t bother booking this hotel, search on.

We loved our stay here and all the staff at the hotel made our stay so much better, everyone was SO helpful and kind, and their English is excellent. We had a room overlooking the pool and sea with a large balcony which was lovely. The room has a fridge and looks newly renovated as it is very clean. We didn't have a kettle but asked at reception and they found one for us and some cups to use. The pool area is beautiful and well maintained by the maintenance teams, and there is a bar open from 10am and snacks available throughout the day (try the club sandwich, it is amazing) There is also drinking water available so you don't need to buy plastic bottled water. The sea is just outside the hotel, across the road, it's a small beach, but there is shade available and the water is absolutely crystal clear and great for snorkeling. There's a small kiosk shop there as well selling drinks and snacks and ice creams. The local bars and restaurants all along the harbour front are all excellent and great value. Average €40-€50 for a meal for two with starters and drinks. I highly recommend an early run/walk along the coast to Marathon. It's a good 3k run before you run out of path and the sunrise around 5:45-6am is absolutely spectacular. If you continue 1k inland you can visit the Tumulus of the Athenians. It costs €6 to go in and walk around or you can see the mound/tomb from the fence.

We found the overall experience lacking due to the condition of the facilities. The rooms are in serious need of renovation. The furniture and decor felt outdated, and the bedding showed visible signs of wear. The bathrooms could also benefit from a refresh. With some much-needed upgrades, this hotel has the potential to be far more enjoyable.

This was a horrible hotel to stay at.. my trip to this hotel was very unfortunate not very memorable… the hotel staff was very unfriendly didn’t show very much customer service or hospitality when we arrive to the hotel. The room they provided with us. The air-conditioning was broken, they didn’t have a new batteries for the remote control so the TV wouldn’t turn on, the shower was broken that the rain shower wasn’t working. This was a really bad experience. I don’t recommend staying here.
