    delightful food
    old air conditioning
    poor cleanliness

    The food during BBQ nights with Greek dancing was delightful.

    Unfortunately, the air conditioning in our room was quite old and ineffective. We also noticed that the pillows had an unpleasant smell, and the bathroom had rusty and dirty shower fixtures. Lastly, the lack of noise insulation made it difficult to rest, as we could hear other guests from the corridor.

    beautiful gardens
    welcoming atmosphere
    variety of food
    poor drink quality

    The May Beach Hotel exceeded my expectations. The lovely outdoor pool area and the beautiful gardens created a serene escape. I appreciated the variety of tasty food, especially during the BBQ nights with Greek dancing. The staff brought a warm and welcoming atmosphere, always finding ways to ensure I felt at home. My room was modern, clean, and spacious, with excellent amenities such as fast Wi-Fi and quality toiletries. the beach access was disappointing. the rocky area where the hotel is located made swimming difficult. I found the drinks at the bar lacked quality. The all-inclusive option seemed overpriced for the value, especially regarding the alcohol selection. There was also a fair amount of noise from the main road, particularly during the busy hours. These factors are something to consider, but the hotel is still a great choice for a relaxing getaway.

    outdoor pool
    beach access
    family activities
    limited breakfast options

    We really enjoyed the lovely outdoor pool area and the short walk to the beach with a cute little path. The kids loved the variety of activities available, including table tennis and a playground, which kept them entertained throughout our stay.

    My wife says that the breakfast options were a bit limited for families with children.

    delicious buffet
    spacious pool
    indirect beach access
    night noise

    Excellent family atmosphere with delightful meals

    Our family enjoyed an amazing stay, especially relishing the delicious, varied buffet options at meal times. The spacious pool area offered plenty of fun for the kids, with lots of sun loungers available without the usual towel wars. The staff were attentive and always eager to help, making sure our experience was smooth. it would be great if the beach access was a little more direct, as we had to navigate through some paths to get there.

    Recommend it for families with children

    The staff really made the experience special, Maria always had a smile and was quick to help us whenever we needed anything. The food at the buffet was surprisingly good, each night they had a different menu with fresh ingredients from local farms.

    It wasn't exactly cheap but still reasonable for what we got.

    buffet variety
    large pool
    smaller room

    I had a fantastic time with my family, especially enjoying the delicious variety of options in the buffet meals and the lovely large pool area, perfect for our kids. the room we chose was a bit smaller than I expected based on the photos, which was a minor letdown but didn't spoil our experience. I would absolutely come back here again!
