We visited at the beginning of June for our first abroad holidays for 8 years. We arrived just after midnight and was welcomed by George on reception who checked us in, we then went to our room, we had a superior sea view suite for our family of 4, it contained 2 sofa beds, a spacious bedroom with king size bed and 2 clean and spacious bathrooms. The rooms were cleaned daily and immaculate throughout. We used the Beach Society restaurant for the majority of our meals, there was lots of choice and new foods to try with salads, meat, fish, potatoes and vegetables. The desserts were exceptional with plenty of variety. We used the Italian ‘Al la Carte’ for lunch on several days the pizza was divine and for dinner once during our stay. My only criticism with the buffet is that there isn’t much choice for children, my son lived on plain pasta, chips and watermelon 🍉. The onsite bakery and ice cream parlour were a firm favourite of ours and the children tried most items on offer. All the bars offered plenty of drinks and cocktails, the queues at the pool bar were large at times especially in the evening. The pool was the highlight of our stay, the children spent the entire day in them and made use of all 5 pools, the pool is very cold when you first get in but you soon get used to it, we did find that the pool had a green algae around the edge towards the end of the week which also stained our swimwear, I had to throw away my husbands shorts and my daughters bikini, but this didn’t effect the use of the pools. We ventured to the beach once as the children wanted to go in the sea, beach shoes are definitely recommend. The hotels entertainment was good but we did find this was slightly too late for the children and definitely aimed more at the adults. There is a kids club but we didn’t use this facility. The family who own the little shop onsite were lovely and extremely helpful and friendly. We used the hotels shuttle bus to visit the old town, we found this extremely easy to book, we also had a walk along the beach to the selection of shops in the Iylassos. During our stay we did experience a pretty big earthquake but this didn’t impact the hotel or facilitates at all and everything carried on as normal. Overall we had a fantastic stay at the Electra Palace and would definitely come back to stay again.
