Kyknos Beach Hotel & Bungalows

After a 10 night stay at this hotel I feel like it was an average stay with some positives and some negatives which I will list below. Cons: • Cleaning/cleaner coming in to the room. We felt that the quality of the cleaning was not the best, as we found that the floor had an accumulation of dirt and sand on which remained for a few days as well as the bed sheets not being changed regularly. On one morning, the doorbell rang and almost instantly afterwards the door was being slid open and the curtains were in the process of being pulled back - I had to stop the cleaner from coming into the room due to not being suitably dressed! This concerned me as there was not even enough time for me to get up and dressed before answering the door and I had considered if this might have been their thought process... unprofessional in my opinion. • Beds and duvet In our double room, the beds are two singles pushed together with individual sheets on. In addition to this, instead of one king sized duvet for both sleepers, you get two single duvets. This can be a pro or a con depending on how you look at it, but I frequently found it frustrating. • Drinks The soft drinks like the coca cola, fizzy orange and fizzy lemon along with some others I can't recall have this distinct almost chemical taste and smell to them which makes them a challenge to drink to the point where I didn't even bother with them unless they had alcohol in! • Food & A La Carte I don't wish to be too critical of the food as the cooking staff looked like they enjoyed their work and were eager to see people's reactions when eating it. However, the quality of a lot of it was not good - it was hit and miss whether your concoction of Greek, Italian and German food would be nice or not. The A La Carte... we were booked into this by the Maitre D in the evening after the BBQ night and the general feeling from our group was that the food was the leftovers from the night before as a lot of it we had seen there and it did not taste fresh. There are 5 courses to the menu - the soup was the best course and i reccomend the pumpkin soup. For starters I had the greek pasta which to be fair was nice, however my partner had prosciutto and gorgonzola tortillas which had a pinch of some sort of pepper on the outside which sent her lips and tongue numb - a curious choice of seasoning I think for a ham and cheese wrap. The third course was a choice of salad, which was disappointing. It sounded good on the menu, but failed to deliver as this too tasted like it had been left out overnight and/or reused.  For main I had the veal stifado which for the first two cuts of meat I really enjoyed, however as it went on I found myself unable to continue eating it due to chewing one piece of meat for at least 5 minutes. My partner had the salmon on a bed of mixed greens - the report is that the salmon was fine, but the greens were overloaded with way too much salt to the point where they couldn't be eaten. For

Not good unless your german! First we booked a superior room with Seaview +pool view we got niether!our first room overlooked the childs pool toilet in the shower sink in the bedroom and a jacuzzi bath in the bedroom not what we booked at all! We asked to move which we did to another jacuzzi room but this had a separate toilet it was my birthday so we decided to use the jacuzzi big mistake!! The whole room flooded! And the a/c broke we asked to move again and was given a bungalow opposite the road it was sufficient but not the room we booked food awful Jeani on the pool bar brilliant That's it

Visited with family and friends for 10 nights, this was our 5th visit. This time my elderly Mother was in a wheelchair. We had rooms in the hotel which were great and my Mom was in a single room. The hotel, staff were fantastic. The hotel had been renovated since our last visit which was much improved. The food was really good, and the barbecue was again exceptional. Thank you to Nassau for all his hard work organising this event. Also Andy who worked at the bar and restaurant was a credit to the hotel, nothing was too much trouble to help us. We will be returning next year with my elderly Mother. Just one request, it would be great if the hotel could provide a ramp to push wheelchairs and pushchairs up the steps to the lift. This would save 2 of us having to lift the wheelchair up the steps. Don't hesitate to book the hotel is in a great location with amazing staff. See you next June.
