Nice, clean hotel. Right next to the beach, staff were very accommodating and lots of friendky cats. However the hotel does not meet 5* Some electrical sockets were loose and needed work. TV wasnt working. Overall room looked like unfinished work. There is no ATM at the resort, but 5mins away within other shops nearby so location was good. Few options for food in the buffet area if all inclusive is chosen. Bar staff were friendly and attentive. Tgere are other restaurants, but need booking in advance. Had some good entertainment. The Rhodes island is beautiful with lots of history and sight seeing! Old Town Rodes, Lindos and the Butterfly Valley were amazing.
