Absolutely an amazing experience. My husband and I stumbled upon this resort as I had a deal with Expedia. We had no idea that this location was not a hotel or a resort in my opinion- but truly a gift and an experience of a lifetime. We were only to stay one night because of flight delays due to weather we were “stuck” for four extra days- the entire staff made us feel right at home! We will definitely be back!

The most beautiful resort I have visited in my life and I am a 6-Star Girl! The grounds were immaculate, the staff was absolutely wonderful, and the food was \"Foodie Grade\" (I am an extreme foodie from Atlanta). We will definitely be back. The stand out staff I want to mention are Elvita, who works in the beach front restaurant, and Billy, the awesome pool lifeguard and exceptional fun provider over that part of the resort. Thanks for a beautiful stay!

Quiet, scenic and nice dining. And amenities of the room was amazing. NB some part of outside need some TLC.
The service was beyond. (Arranged for a privat haircut in the room and same day dry cleaning was done in few hours.) only negative some parts out side needed some TLC but did affect the quality of the room and stay.

Quiet beautiful view of water, sunsets from room. Very nice accommodations, lovely resort. Great breakfast, but omelette bar would have been nice. Captain’s Chair restaurant other than beautiful setting was subpar and expensive. The resort is far from noise of Athens which is a plus , but you will be spending money to get to Athens for sights unless you have a car.

Mixed bag

A mixed review. The good: the wonderful upgrade to a renovated bungalow. The staff and service impeccable. Food fabulous. The bad: added days to my res and understandably got downgraded to an un- renovated room which was in disrepair and not worth half of what I paid. Electricity didn’t work and was never fixed. Offered to move my room but had already done that and just wanted things to work. And the room to be in decent shape. The manager was kind and diplomatic but he could t explain away the state of the room. Only book the renovated part of the hotel.

I had a very large and beautiful room. I loved the silence.
However, the lightning system of the room was too complicated and we could not turn of the lights completely at night.
You also need a tap to wash your feet at the garden or terrace before you enter the room on your way back from the beach.

Won’t go back

We have stayed several times through the years and we have always enjoyed it, but the rooms have become so run down at this point that we have decided that this is our last stay. The property has made improvements in some areas, like restaurants, but they need to pay more attention to the comforts in the rooms. Here are some examples. Our mattress was awful. We could feel the springs. We asked for a topper, which helped. We also had ants infest a suitcase that was up on a couch. The staff were not helpful in dealing with that problem. The umbrella that was on the beach in front of our room for our use was broken and never fixed. We will not be returning.

Heaven on earth! Love everything about this place. Staff is awesome and very caring and helpful! Mr. Theodore at breakfast made sure that my daughter and I had gluten free options every day. Katerina took great care to serve us our favorites with a smile. Jimmy was always there when we needed something (like towels at the pool when they ran out). Chara helped with our travel needs. Sophia at the front desk always greeted us with hospitality and love. Dimitri at the Ouzeri made sure we were well taken care of. Georgia and Kosta sang our favorite songs and treated us like family. Mr Tzimas made sure we had a room when we our travel plans changed despite being completely full. I wish I could name everyone!!! Thank you treating us like family and VIPs! See you next year!!!!

I like the resort's location. The peninsula possesses beautiful beaches and sand. The property is unique and well-developed, but a little dated. For example, the art inside our suite was photographs of Olympians. It gave us the impression that the rooms have perhaps not been updated since 2004 when Athens hosted? Several of the features in the room were nice at one point, but no longer working, supporting that theory. It's a nice resort, but they ask a lot of money and I think the attention to detail needs to be stepped up if they want to continue demanding the higher prices.

Disappointing. We come to Greece every year but this was our first stay at the Grand Resort. The service/people working at the resort are wonderful but the resort is run down, lacks the amenities required of a five star resort and appears that it is generally poorly managed.
The grounds are large and the room had a lot of switches. Typically, at resorts such as this, someone takes you around the resort and your room to show you where things are/how things work. No one did that and, as a result, we found our favorite beach on the last day (4th night).
The beach in front of our room was unkempt, the room was not restocked and we waited 45 min for toilet paper, the internet and TV stopped working (they eventually brought a new TV our last night), the air-conditioning was not working properly and we had to have 4 chairs replaced because they were broken. When we told management, they kindly listened but did nothing.
Overall, disappointing for the price.

Disappointing stay!

We unfortunately did not have the stay we hoped for. Upon entering our room, we smelled smoke and mold. We couldn’t open our balcony doors to get rid of the smell, because the room would get extremely hot and the air conditioner barely worked. We did not receive a fresh fruit basket as the rest of our friends who were also staying on property did. The door to our room jammed and locked and we were stuck inside several times. The shower water changed from hot to cold back and forth. We wanted to take our free breakfast back to our room because we wanted to work out and later we discovered we were charged a 10.00 euros fee.

While this was a disappointing property, we have noticed that every time we book with hotels.com (although silver status) we have a less than up to par room. It makes us question whether to book with hotels.com or go directly to the hotel property. We find that the rooms are different than the general customers.

This is not a proper 5 star hotel according to me. It might have been in the past but not anymore. The staff is friendly, but what is lacking are rooms and services that meets a 5 star hotel today. If you want a classic resort 25 min outside of Athens, then book it. If you want a 5 star, book Four Athens, Somewhere Hotel or The Margi.

Amazing location and staff were amazing especially jimmy! Was really pleasant and everyone very welcoming and happy to help. Plenty of restaurants on the resort along with an ok gym. Beach areas and water sports are amazing!!!

Breakfast was a buffet and was amazing. I wish I could eat there everyday!! The staff there were always so attentive and friendly! The restaurants on the resort as well were very good and of high quality food.

We stayed in bungalow and so had a semi private beach which was amazing and very relaxing.

The only negative about this resort is the service charge when ordering room service. It is an extra 15euros which is quite ridiculous. You are not able to pick up food from the restaurant or bar and have to get it sent to the room. On days where you can’t be bothered to go to the restaurant and just want room service this 15 euro charge is very annoying and is unwarranted given how much you pay to stay at the resort in the first place!

Beaches were great when the weather was good but it needs an indoor heated pool and spa
The biggest complaint was there are no non smoking areas in the outdoor eating areas.
Staff said, go inside, but that’s not what I am paying for. Beautiful food, fantastic view and then people start smoking next to you.
All it needs is a little management and allocate some space for non smokers.

It is a nce hotel with several beaches. However, we arrived after the great storm, so that all the beaches were messy. Unfortunately in the sea we did not only find rubbish from the storm, but also old umbrellas, sunbeds and lots of electricity cables, which have nothing to do under water! When I addressed this with the staff, they said they will clean it up, but did not seem surprised or concerned. Even besides the storm, this certainly is the least clean underwater area I have experienced in Greece (and when we stayed a few km from this place in another hotel 4 weeks before everything was clean there...).
Our room was quiet and very nice (bungalow) with a beautiful view of the sea and the sunset!
Only one restaurant was open in October, but the food was very good. The staff were all friendly.

As I arrived, check in took forever, and when we informed staff that our 3 year old was with us they would not give us a cot. We were informed that only a bungalow with an additional cost of $1000 per day would fit a cot, lol. We upgraded to a room with pool access which was in he basement of the hotel and thankfully there were 2 beach chairs outside that we quickly brought in and made it a bed by adding the blankets and sheets from the room. The beach chair is larger than a standard cot and fit easily.
Furthermore the room was tiny for a “Superior Luxury sea View Room,” as advertised and the bathroom was smaller than an airplane’s lavarotory. Also there were bugs in the bath when we arrived and there was a definite infestation because after getting rid of them, they soon appeared again from the bathroom drain. Overall the location and grounds are nice but doesn’t compare to the old Astir Pallas.

Great holiday.

We arrived for a five night stay, check in was smooth and friendly. Staff very eager to help you to room with golf cart. We stayed in a bungalow 169, fantastic view, sunset every night! Very spacious and a/c worked great. Some dated technology (cassette player, etc...) Room is 20 second walk to private beach, a bit rocky but manageable. We opted for the sandy beach just minutes away we’re it was shared with other hotel guests. Room definitely needs some more outlets for charging tech...

Took a taxi from hotel to airport and was charged 100% more than booking direct. I would highly suggest downloading “beat” app and paying fair taxi rate. The upcharge was ridiculous. 100% is extreme, I understand to charge a premium for call ahead service but not 100%.

Over-priced has-been. The location is great as is its proximity to Athens, but this hotel is crazy expensive. Friendly and attentive staff. But room conditions were very disappointing for what is supposed to be a five-star property. Perhaps it was five-star in the distant past, but more like a three-star today. Basic maintenance is lacking across the property. Daily maid service came knocking at 730am at our beach bungalow, deploying piles of laundry in front of what would have been our wonderful morning view. On-site restaurants offer limited menus of fancy concoctions that are terribly over priced. Thinking about lounging at the beach? How’s $11 for a 12oz plastic cup of draft beer or $20 for a medium-sized Greek salad? This place is a waste of money and a major disappointment.

The hotel has an amazing property. The service and staff are very nice. The rooms are so tiny and old. I have never seen a smaller and uncomfortable bathroom. Everything in the hotel room is old. The towels that were once white are now grey and had to be thrown out a long time ago. The breakfast room reminded me of a cruise ship. Too many people, people wait a long time to take a seat. Very disorganized. This by no means is a five star property. I would give it between a 3-4 because of the beautiful property.

Resort is absolutely gorgeous... most beautiful workout gym in the world!! There was a long pool in front of our room as well as the main (infinity) pool. Great oceanfront restaurants (Greek, Italian, sushi, others) that you stroll the property to get there... feels like you are in the Greek Islands, but you are only 40 minutes from Athens. Gorgeous Temple of Poseidon is nearby. Beach is stunning and there is a great beach restaurant right on the water. Simply fabulous!!!! Highly recommend!
