Galatis Beach Hotel

we really love this place, located in a Alyki village, good location to go for a walk around at the evening, simple, clean, right on the beach and great food at the hotel Taverna. all the hotel staff are friendly. the lady at the reception gave us all needed information's regarding the island and what to do.

The lady at the desk was not customer friendly. Exoticca travel did not link our reservations together so they were putting us in 2 different buildings. I will not use Exoticca again. To many mistakes. We asked to be moved to the same area, and she was not to receptive to it. She was telling us she was fully booked, but we saw keys in the boxes that were left over. She finally put us in a room next to our friends. I only had one complaint about our room, and that was that the hand held shower head didn't have a holder, making it very difficult to wash my hair. Our friends room had a heater that was not working. They came up and tried pushing the button on the remote the same as we did, but to no avail. They brought them extra blankets to fix the problem. Two others in our group had toilets that leaked into the bathroom floor upon flushing flooding the bathroom. Nothing was done about that while they were there. The restaurant was interesting. They brought us bread to the table, without asking if we wanted it. Then a charge of 1.50 Euro per person was on our bill for the bread. Should they tell you there was a charge before they brought it? Seams that is not the way in Greece. In another pizza restaurant, my friends asked for Dried Chili peppers. That landed a 2.50 Euro charge on our bill. Maybe sliding things onto the bill without your knowledge is standard practice. Beware.

This was the cutest little hotel! The staff was all very nice and helpful. Ate at their restaurant for every meal - delicious! Attempted to get lunch too early and the sweetest lady from the kitchen helped us and absolutely made my day with her good conversation! Beach is right in front for less than 5 minute walk with chairs and umbrellas provided. Room service was awesome too - came in quickly and provided fresh towels, made the beds, and cleaned up what was necessary. If I return to Paris I will stay here again!
