Agios Nikolaos Holidays from £318

Our hosts Dionisis and his wife Aggeliki were wonderful. They greated us warmly on arrival and upgraded our room with a sea view without any extra cost when we checked in which was a lovely surprise and also gave my partner a huge birthday cake on our second day when they heard it was her birthday. They also gave us some gifts on leaving to remember our stay with them. The perfect hosts. Dionisis has made his own map of the island which you can have a copy of, indicating various day trips and the best sites to visit on each day trip and even a discounted boat trip to visit the blue caves and shipwreck beach (if you say you are staying at the Belussi beach hotel) Our room was large and clean with a lovely sea view from the balcony. The staff were all so friendly throughout our stay and we had some lovely chats with them when they were on and off duty. Every one of the staff were friendly from the cleaners to the restaurant and bar staff. I highly recommend you hire a car for the duration of your stay. There are three local restaurants within 5 mins walk if you wish to walk to dine out away from the hotel and a supermarket is a ten minute walk through an olive tree lined road. But if you want to explore the island properly and explore what it has to offer you need some transport. You can use a taxi or a bus to explore but this would really limit what you can see. The hotel has everything you need to enjoy swimming in the sea and days around the pool. The breakfasts superb.

Excellent hotel, staff and breakfast. Room cleaned twice a day unless you asked them not to. Relaxed atmosphere despite the hotel's rating. Excellent spa, cave pool (both free to guests) and massage services (for a fee although some days we received a free 10 minute shoulder massage by the pool). Excellent quality and variety of food. Gym equipment in both hotels was a bit worse for wear but a small issue compared to all of the positives.

I loved the design of the hotel. The room was spacious, stylish and well-maintained, and the views were gorgeous. The staff are all really friendly and keen to make amends for issues but there are inconsistencies in the service and communication that don't match what would be expected from a 5 star experience. The food quality isn't consistent across the three main dinner locations and doesn't quite match the price point. The ambience of the hotel matched what I needed for my short stay - very quiet and peaceful and hardly any children - which allowed me to relax in a way I haven't been able to in a while.

Nice rooms, plenty of swimming pools, very good breakfast.

The property and room were beautiful. Walking distance from the beach and in a very convenient location right next to restaurants, bars, shops and the supermarket. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely return.
