We had such a lovely time here at the Zeus Palm Beach. We had no booking at the hotel, but had sunbeds on the beach. We also ate and had some drinks at the bar. Gianis, the bartender is such a great man, very friendly and helpful! He made our stay a memorable one, so we came back at this place the following days too. We enjoyed everything here. He has a golden heart for people, we will come next year once again!! 🤗🥰 so happy for reaching this place. In our country we say: the man blesses the place. Yanis is such a good example for this. 💯🫶
