Great family resort with multiple pools and activities. Good for younger kids and families who are mostly looking to spend their time at the hotel. A few decent shops and restaurants nearby and nice beaches a 10 minute walk.
Taxis are expensive in the islands. €35 from airport to resort. 15-20 min

Clean, good quality, service minded

Very nice, big and clean hotel. Wonderful staff and very service-minded.
1 week is enough, although very nice hotel, I was glad I could leave it again and see something different. To be honest, that’s the same experience I have with most all-inclusive.
The all-inclusive menu could be a little bit more exciting, and for some reason, the juices are way too strong (need 4 times as much water, but they checked it, and it should be ok, according to Greece standards). Coffee is just boring.
Couple of things that could be improved: keep the “children” swimming pools open a bit longer, accidents do happen in children pools - clean it straight away, too long lines for drinks and ice-cream.

Like:
- Good for families with young children
- Many swimming pools with water slides
- Good food in All Inclusive restaurant
- Friendly staff
- Clean

Not like:
- Family room is poorly decorated
- Poor quality food in Asian a la cart restaurant
- Many items not included and are to be paid extra, like swimming pool towels, beach beds, etc.
- Animation is nice for small children, but good animation for adults is missing.
- The drinks were not fruit juices but were tasting like instant made with sugar

Not a bad hotel but not 4 star

Hello everyone , we had stayed here at gouves water park for 10 days, the room was in need of updating the beds were uncomfortable, and pillows in need of replacing , the restaurant had nice food , but sometimes it could be difficult to fight your way through the crowds not much manners from people, also small children running about spilling food and in general being rude and bad mannered , not all of these problems can be blamed on the hotel and of course it is up to parents to teach there children how to behave, the parents would just let there kids do anything and it was obvious that the small children did not feel comfortable because there mums and dads could not be bothered getting up from there b sides sending 3 year old kids to get food drinks is a no no, and when i said to a senior member of staff they said they had a rule that it was only children 8 and over that were allowed to get food drinks again this rule was not being enforced, the staff need to make sure that the rules for the all inclusive bands are enforced, as people were purchasing large vodkas whisky which they were not entitled to do , this made guests that had paid the extra 25 euros a day annoyed , what was the point ? paying the 25 euros when no one bothered checking the wrist bands, the hotel could be much better if some simple things were changed, staff must challenge bad behaviour, i saw a drunk man pick up his small child and launch him into the pool to the cheers of the crowd.

Nice hotel and walking distance to the beach

Had a lovely long weekend at this hotel. Room was just what you needed. Had a meal at their Smile restaurant at the beach and in the Chinese. If I had to choose would go for the Chinese. Lots of food to choose from all day long. Water slides open 12 to 6pm and you had choices of another 4 pools to swim in. Also enjoyed a massage at the spa. 15 mins away from the airport really easy to get taxi costs 30 euros.

More like a 3/2 stars

The area where the hotel is located is depressing.
Rooms are okay but only the one which have been refurbished, the old ones are awful.
Food okayish, it s all about the quantity but not about about quality.
It s gets really busy at meal times making the whole experience not pleasant.

Fantastic family friendly hotel.

The Gouves Park Hotel is a family friendly hotel with a Water Park. The hotel is very clean and well maintained. Staff at the hotel are exceptional helpful and friendly. The life guards at the park are excellent and very friendly. There is a beach and a small selection of shops, restaurants and bars within a five minute walk. The food is a good standard although it was repetitive at times. The kids club and disco is aimed at younger children and the animation team are very nice . The evening entertainment could be better. I would recommend this hotel for a relaxing family holiday.

Gouves hotel- Good, but can be better

I was there on October 2010, the hotel is quietly good but the problem was the room.
I got a room which it's balcony is just 10 meters from the pool.
At day light there is almost constant noise because of the music from the pool and there is almost no privacy because people sit just next to your room.

Beside that, The food was very good, a large verity of it.
The treatment from the stuff was very kind full, we had a Celiac person and the Chef itself made the food for him.

We asked for late departure and we got it for extra paid but it helped very much.
There is a lot to see not far away from Gouves.

L’annonce concernantcet hôtel est mensongère ! Les piscines sont trop petites pour accueillir autant de monde, la nourriture est déplorable tout juste sortie de boîtes de conserves! Le restaurant principal offre une vue sur un terrain vague avec des gravats et des camions abandonnés ! La douche de notre chambre swim up est couverte de calcaire, la porte ne fermait pas à cause des charnières rouillées ! La soi disant plage de l’hôtel est à quelques centaines mètres où il faut payer pour avoir un transat et un parasol déchirés et sales! Sans compter sur la mauvaise foi de la manager qui botte en touche! C’est lamentable de payer pour de telles prestations ! Expédia nous a écouté et nous avons remboursé une bonne partie de notre réservation ! A fuir il y a mille fois mieux à 8 km!

Hôtel sympa surtout les chambres avec accès direct à la piscine (mais attention au bruit tout de même). Les espaces toboggans sont très bien pour les enfants. Le point négatif est la restauration. La nourriture est peu variée, pas terrible, généralement trop salée, il faut faire la queue tout le temps à moins d'arriver dès l'ouverture du restaurant...

Das Zimmer mit direktem Pool und die Anlage sind sehr schön und Kinder kommen voll auf ihre Kosten. Das Essen war sehr abwechslungsreich und reichhaltig. Die Getränke sind typisch (für uns viel zu süß wie mit Sirup angemischt) und das Wasser hat an der Bar leider nicht geschmeckt. Gestreckt bzw. gemischt ging es aber meistens. Für die Erholung zu beachten - ab 21:00 wird Minidisco gemacht und geht bis 23:00 noch Programm und Musik. Extrem laut. Wer das nicht mag sollte anders buchen. Wir waren schon in einem Zimmer etwas weg vom Geschehen. Ansonsten eine tolle Anlage, freundliches Personal und der Dinopark bzw. Aquarium direkt um die Ecke sind sehr zu empfehlen.

Hôtel très convivial avec pas moins de 10 bassins, de grands buffets à volonté où l'on peut déguster des pâtes, des pizzas, des viandes grillées, des poivrons grillés...et des desserts assez crémeux ou des pâtisseries au miel, des fruits frais. Le restaurant propose un grand choix mais l'intérieur est bruyant notamment à cause du bruit des lourdes chaises sur le carrelage.Boissons chimiques (coca, sodas en poudre..), pitas et pizzas disponibles également toute la journée au snack. Ma chambre était plutôt grande et calme avec une décoration très sommaire et la salle de bain était peu aérée et constamment inondée car douche non délimitée. Sinon les toboggans, l ensoleillement, le mini disco, l accès gratuit au tennis et la plage située à proximité sont des . Très bien avec des enfants.

Отдых с семьёй в конце сезона, октябрь 2019.

Из плюсов, большая и чистая территория, много бассейнов и водных горок, хорошая анимация и приветливый персонал. До моря минут 5 пешком. Большая столовая, отличная еда, очень вкусная и разнообразная. На баре у бассейна подают отличную пиццу и шаурму, очень рекомендую!
Из минусов, это долгое заселение, не удобный матрас (чтобы не сказать хуже), плохая уборка и отсутствие душевой кабинки в ванной, весь пол становится мокрый и ужасно скользкий. Полотенца и постели за 6 дней не меняли, а просто протирала влажной тряпкой пол и то не всегда и не везде, балкон вообще не убирали.
Есть много прокатов машин рядом с отелем и цены умеренные. Так-как далеко до остановки и автобусы ходят не регулярно, то машина на прокат это лучшая альтернатива и единственная возможность куда-то попасть не завися от общественного транспорта.

Super for families with children

We had a relaxing stay, where the 3-year old LOVED the water parks and the pools, and the fact there was always some food she could eat. We liked the quality of the food, and the variety through the week was enough to keep us from getting bored with the food.

There are plenty of activities for children, so if you don't want to, you don't need to leave the hotel. If you do want to leave, it's only a short taxi ride to the Aquarium and a dinosaur park (We only visited the aquarium). We could have walked, but that was too hot for us.

There is a shopping street in walking distance with a descent super market and some bars and shops.

Hotel staff is friendly and helpful, the hotel is recently upgraded and the distance to cross the entire complex is maximum a 3 minute walk, so it's easy to get around.

not what we've expected

We (parents + 1 infant) had booked 7 nights at Gouves Water Park all-inc.
At the arrival the employees where very helpful but then the desaster started. Our room was horrible! There were almost dust bowls under the bed, hairs in the drawers and dust on the table.
Then you had the choice to leave the balcony door open which was right next to the kitchen (smell) and noisy from the fans of cold storage house or close the door and a horrable noise of the aircon wouldn't let you fall asleep. So we claimed (as almost 30% of all guests) and got a new room the day after which wasn't already cleaned up (at 3pm!). There the shower head was calcified and the toilet smelled after Chlorine.
The food was more like a canteen, only the fresh cocking stations were delicious. The drinks were all sweetened or sugered, inacceptable for our infant, the wine tasted like rocket fuel, no fresh fruits except of water melons. At the cocktail bar were only the daily drinks for free (mainly with Ouzo), all others we had to pay.
For the towels we had to pay as well (beside the deposit) even of all-inc, inacceptable. The segments at the water slides were very inaccurate mounted, so that after 2 slides my booty hurted and I quit as well as my son.
We've confronted the management with our claims and they said they'll improve.
Overall not very relaxing holidays and definetly not a 4 star hotel!!!!

Anlage teilweise neu, nur das Zimmer war veraltet.

Teile der Anlage wurden erst vor kurzer Zeit neu gestaltet. (Rutschen, Mini-Club, Pools). Unser Zimmer gehörte leider nicht dazu. Es roch dort muffig und nach Schimmel. Auch waren im Badezimmer deutliche Schimmelspuren zu sehen (Schnur des Notrufes, hinter Seifenspender, Fliesenfugen). Das Essen ist zwar vielfältig mit genug Auswahl, jedoch ist die Qualität des Fleisches eher mäßig. Gemüse war zerkocht und die Nudeln auch. Eine Große Küche eben.
Positiv zu erwähnen ist mit Sicherheit der großzügige Mini-Club mit Fay (Betreuerin), welche sich sehr um die Kinder bemüht hat. Auch Manolo bei der Pizzeria war stets freundlich und bemüht. 👍

L'hotel est tres propre: chambres, piscines, bars.
Uniquement en formule \"All Inclusive\", la nourriture est vraiment tres bonne, tres variee, avec des specialites du Pays...
La chambre est grande et tres bien isolee. Probleme identique dans tout pays \"chaud\" souvent trop frais avec la clim', trop bruyant les fenetres ouvertes (aeroport proche).
Piscine, tennis a disposition...
