Akti Beach Club

One of the best things about the hotel was the Remarc International Entertainment Team. Led by Charmaine, the whole team comprising of Spider-Man, Julianna, Clinton, Ola, Celina, Kevin, Antonia, Marlon, Mabrouke and Salvador were amazing. Their evening shows were brilliant, most are professional dancers and it shows. Clinton’s Michael Jackson Thriller routine was brilliant. It a shame that the Italian entertainment team had to take part in the shows because to be honest, the Bravo team were not great! Hotel is not a 5 star, however it is a nice hotel and very good value for money. The food is really good with lots of options. There are things that could be improved like new towels etc, however the positives way out the negatives. Would I come back YES.

We had an enjoyable week at Akti Beach Club. All the staff are very hard working, kind and helpful. The lovely housekeeping lady worked very hard keeping our room clean for us all week. The staff member who works hard at the hotel beach bar every day makes lovely fresh burgers, hot dogs and chips quickly and with a smile! The restaurant staff deserve special praise for producing such lovely food in very hot and uncomfortable conditions. There are a few things regarding our stay at Akti which might be of benefit for both the Hotel and future guests. The first is the noise from the electrical generator. We fully appreciate that an outage of the mains power supply is beyond the control of the Hotel and it is excellent that the Hotel can avoid any disruption to guests by utilising its own generator. However we were all woken up with a big shock when the generator started running at 6am on the morning of 20th August! The generator is almost directly opposite our room 920 and is incredibly loud. We did not know what it was and were worried. Perhaps, if guests are allocated a room directly affected by the noise of the generator, the reception staff could warn guests at the time of check-in of the possibility that the generator may start up at any time when there is a mains power outage and state that it is very loud but is nothing to worry about. Secondly we noticed from the terrace of room 920 that there are 6 windows in the restaurant building directly opposite. Of these windows, 4 of are clear glass and 2 further down are obscure. There is a staff area adjacent to 2 of the clear windows and the other 2 clear windows are part of the restaurant for guests. It felt invasive that we could be seen (watched!) through these windows when in our room and we had to remember to fully close the curtains to maintain privacy. It would be more comfortable for guests staying in the rooms opposite the rear of the restaurant if all of those windows were obscured. Alternatively guests could be warned of the situation at check-in if they are allocated rooms in block 918-921 and perhaps given the opportunity to decide whether or not they are comfortable with it or offered an alternative room. We were very surprised to discover there is no proper air conditioning in either the Hotel lobby or the restaurant. The heat in the restaurant is extreme and uncomfortable which detracts from the experience of eating the beautiful food produced. Investment in full air conditioning in the restaurant will be so beneficial for the staff and guests alike.

I’ll start with the positives - grounds were nice. Plenty of pools. You could always find something to eat at the buffet and they were good towards my granddaughter who has a dairy allergy. They were also very helpful when my stepdaughter needed a doctor (not the fault of the hotel). However, the rooms are tired and grubby. The bathroom had ants and a cockroach. The floors in the room were not clean at all. There was a screw sticking out of the wardrobe. We had two rooms and the electrics in my daughter’s room tripped three times. I watched a pool man clean the sides of the pool with the pool water. The sunbeds were tatty and broken so if you sat on them they would make a loud noise and you’d just sink into them. I have stayed in 3 star hotels in Greece that have been far better than this. I did raise these issues and they did send someone to spray the bathroom with insect repellant but then left me to dispose of the cockroach corpse. They did remove the screw from the wardrobe and sent someone to clean the floors, however it made no difference as they just swept the mop over it when it needed a good scrub. They did offer to move rooms but there were 7 of us so would have been a logistical nightmare. This is also sticking a plaster over a gunshot wound. The rooms are just tatty. They need refurbishing and a good deep clean. So all in all, I can see that they tried to correct the issues however the hotel needs serious money spending on it. We won’t be back and we wouldn’t recommend it I’m afraid based on our experience.

Little bit far out for walking in but a regular shuttle bus there and back or €10 taxi back. Rooms were a bit tired and small but it was towards the end of the season. We upgraded to a suite and with 4 female and only 1 mirror it was a bit difficult at times. But we had a lovely stay and the food, for an all inclusive, was fabulous!!

Good location,we booked the Adult Only section and it was perfect for us relaxing chilled atmosphere.Room was great,cleaned every day fresh towels,stocking up the fridge was a bit inconsistent but we were few steps to our shared pool,bar and restraunt. Staff were great especially in restraunt & bar at Adult only section they had our drinks on the table by time we came back with our food.Food was really good I'd say more choice at the family area but it was too noisy for us. We had a great time and qould come back again xx
