Lydia Maris Resort & spa

Rooms basic, 2 single beds pushed together, does have tea/coffee making facilities, good shower glass screen is useless, water doesn't drain, runs over floor, restaurant, food is good, but self service stations are so close together, bump into each other when trying to get food, weirdd set up with the desserts, in one area, plates in another, only one hot drinks machine, which at breakfast is a joke when restaurant is busy. Now I know where in Greece so expect Greek, but no toaster at breakfast is puzzling. No air con in restaurant. Sitting to watch entertainment on plastic chairs at the outside eating area is not comfortable. The bar is the other side of the pool, access via steps and bridge. Positives, close to eucalyptus street, 10 mins from beach, beautiful big & warm swimming pool, what is a credit to the hotel is the AMAZING ANIMATION TEAM: Gustavo, Alex Evealina & Luca, they made us feel special, took time to talk, and were always making us laugh with their entertaining antics, brilliant darts & aqua fit. Water polo, table tennis, evening entertainment, they worked above & beyond such a pleasant team.

We normally travel as a family of 5, 2 adults and 3 teens. This time just me and my partner came away. We are glass half full people, not ones to complain and always look for the best in everything. The best points of this holiday are the staff (entertainment) who work tirelessly and are friendly and inclusive to all. The cleaners and food staff do a great job. The hotel is very clean and rooms are done everyday. They work very hard, and as an ex-cleaner I couldn't find a shred of dust. However, at the best this hotel is a 3 star. I know stars vary country to country but by no means could this be considered a 5 star. Food is ok, but very repetitive. Protein selection is very limited. After 3 days we were eating out. Pretty much same food for lunch and dinner every day with small variants. The pizza is good but the Gyros were nothing special. We didn't bring our kids this time but it felt there was not much for children to eat. Not all food is labelled. Drinks are definitely below average. We like an alcoholic beverage but their house spirits, cocktail selection and beer is substandard. We found ourselves buying in better quality alcohol from the local supermarket. There are a couple of self-serve stations for soft drinks around but they are often run out and of poor quality. Rooms are only provided with one bottle of water a day which isn't enough. They also don't allow you to fill your own bottles with water at the stations which I find shocking. The hotel itself is starting to tire and is very basic. Admittedly they are renovating and you can see work is being done so I appreciate this is a work in progress. Our room was one that had been recently modernised, however the shower leaked badly. Location of the hotel is great, in a nice village. Big up to Zeus fast food on the corner who serve amazing food at fabulous prices. T&P bar opposite serve great cocktails with a friendly atmosphere. This is a great basic family holiday, but if you're looking for 5 star you will be disappointed.

We spend really nice time. The hotel is more of a 4 star hotel than a 5 star hotel!!!The animators are all outstanding, Ewelina, Gustavo, Alex, Lucas👏👏👏❤️*********, they do the best job 👏👏👏💪💪💪❤️❤️❤️ The bar service was very poor. The food was delicious, bravo to the pizza guy and the gyros guy and lady 👌👌👌 The cleaning ladies do a very good job!!! You have to be really careful with the sunbeds 😭, they are very unstable!!! It would be good if there was ice cream all day. I can say we had really good time!!!🥰🥰🥰
