Faired well for a short stay
The staff is very helpful and welcoming, even with my very late evening check in. I appreciated their warm greetings. The location was not ideal for my short stay, but it was clean - a few things needed repair (door frame and bathroom shower doors were extremely hard to open and shut), but it was mostly clean (the shower floor was questionable) and quiet. Breakfast was nice and I was thankful for easy & close parking. The address on Hotels.com is wrong, I got lost getting there. Take the address from their website.
Pros: the staff works really hard and do their best to keep guests pleased. Breakfast was awesome so many choices and the ladies working there were on the move constantly cleaning and refilling all the trays with food so that there was always extra. Very hard working young ladies!!! Front desk very helpful. Again, nothing that can be done more by the staff, noone’s fault, it’s a matter of a property that needs renovation and maintenance.
Cons: It’s rated a 2 star hotel, and it’s visible. Online pictures look better than reality. The room wasn't too clean, hairs on the floor. The bathroom shower is moldy. No one’s fault, just obvious the hotel needs serious repair/maintenance. We paid around $150/night so didn't think it was worth the price.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Firstly the hotel is on a small hill and takes about a 10mins uphill walk to reach. not too bad if you don’t have heavy suitcases to trawl.
The check-in was easy and quick and as we travelled in the quiet period, it was all pleasant. the room was average size the balcony facing the sea was wonderful with views of the sea and mountains. the room however had dust piling up around the surfaces, the shower head was broken, the bathroom looked like it needed a though clean and the bedsheets had some discolouration. you get what you pay for so not a big deal. The total disappointment was the very very basic breakfast! not worth it at all. very limited in choice and was of poor quality. no fresh juice, cold boiled eggs, toast which you had to make yourself in the sandwich press machine. one star for breakfast but 4stars for view. The hotel is in great location but needs a little TLC and care to bring it to life!
Fairly basic, very clean hotel with added bonus of included breakfast and decent sized pool.
Location is up hill from main centre of Lixouri, approx 5-10 minute walk.
Idk where to start.
1 as soon as we stepped foot in the facility we got the most warmest welcome.
2. The room itself is very cosy and nice.
3. The beach is not even a 3 minute walk. It is beautiful.
4. There is a bar and breakfast here which is very nice.
And I can keep going but no point.
Again the staff is soooooo nice!
Love it here and I’m only on day 1
Frühstück wenig Auswahl an Wurst, Käse und Kuchen, immer das gleiche. Brot nicht frisch und unförmig geschnitten. Auf verlangen kein Kakao. Kaffee könnte besser sein.
Sehr ruhige Lage und alles sehr sauber.
Var en uke der pga ferie/bryllup, veldig fornøyd med personalet og senga var veldig myk!
Eneste minus, at de var veldig streng angående basseng. Veldig kort åpningstid (stengte kl 19) selvom det fortsatt var 30 grader varmt.

Primeiramente, o hotel deveria explicar para todo hóspede, durante a reserva, como fazer para chegar lá. Eu cheguei a Lefkada de ferry no Porto de Sami e fui de carro para o hotel, pela única estrada terrível que existe atualmente, e que me desanimou ter escolhido conhecer a ilha de Lefkada. Qdo cheguei no hotel, perguntei na recepção sobre a estrada que dá acesso ao hotel e então que me foi explicado que a maneira mais fácil de ir para o hotel é pegando o ferry em Argostoli para Lixouri. Esta informação é primordial!! Tudo fica fácil e agradável! O hotel fica a 2” de carro do Porto de Lixouri e 10” a pé e tem barca a cada 30’ durante todo o dia e a cada hora a partir das 19:00h. O café da manhã é farto mas preparado sem zelo algum: talheres manchados, dando a impressão de mal lavados; garfos tortos, xícaras com sujeiras, moscas e gatos no local, alguns ovos mal cozidos com gema e clara ainda líquidas….aparência feia. O local de tomar banho, o box, é mínimo e muito desconfortável até para uma pessoa magra. Durante o banho, esbarra-se muitas vezes no registro da água mudando a temperatura da água o que é extremamente desagradável. Para evitar esbarrar no registro da água, é necessário encostar na parede do box que é suja e mofada. O Wi-Fi é muito instável e desconecta frequentemente. O único local que o Wi-Fi pega bem é no lobby e no local do café da manhã. O hotel tem piscina mas não disponibiliza toalhas para piscina. O hóspede precisa ter sua própria toalha de piscina.
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour d'une semaine dans cet hôtel qui est à la hauteur de ses 2 étoiles.
Environnement calme et très pratique d'accès à seulement 10 mn à pied du ferry, des commerces et des restaurants du centre de Lixouri. Personnel sympathique et serviable.
Petit dejeuner complet mais qui demandrait plus de diversités pour les sejours longs.
Très jolie piscine bien aménagée avec beaucoup de transats à l'ombre si vous craignez le soleil et la chaleur. Excellente musique autour de l'espace Bar qui propose aussi snacking à prix modéré. Idéal pour quelques heures de farniente.
Bref, nous vous recommandons l'adresse sans hésiter que vous soyez célibataire, en couple avec ou sans enfants.
Ottimo hotel von piscina e tanto verde che da soli già fanno vacanza e se aggiungi disponibilità del personale ed un'ottima colazione puoi avere idea di una bella vacanza.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Constaté que les serviettes de toilettes etaient mélangées et probabl ement pas les notres. De grosses taches rondes alors que les nôtres étaient propres.
Nos affaires personnelles initialement sur la table de nuit, retrouvaient sur le lit.
