My Husband surprised me with this holiday for my 50th Birthday and what a fabulous hotel he chose. We got back yesterday after a week of relaxing in the sunshine around the hotel pool and beach, enjoying the wonderful food and drinks, and making lots of friends from around the world. The hotel is spotless and our room was cleaned and we were given new towels every day. The loungers around the pool are really comfy and music is played from the bar, all English songs sung by different people and perfect for chilling. The bar staff are all great guys, smiley and happy...just watch out for the raki shots! Now for the food....I am a very fussy eater but have to say I didn't struggle with breakfast, lunch or dinner, infact I've totally eaten far too much as the food is that good, but still had to indulge in an icecream cornet that you can help yourself to by the bar...the banana icecream is amazing and so difficult to find now in the UK. There are snacks too, and the slices of cake, especially the red velvet, are just gorgeous. The wine is good too, especially the rosé, as is the beer so my Husband was pleased. There are things going on every day, including stretching exercises and aqua gym in the pool, table tennis and also volleyball on the beach, all run by the absolutely fantastic Andreas, we can't rate this guy enough! He is an amazing part of this hotel, trying to get everyone involved, but not pushy at all. One day we got the local bus, just 2 mins up the road from the hotel, bought our tickets in the little supermarket opposite the bus stop for €1.20 each, each way, and 15mins we were in Heraklion which was a lovely afternoon out, nice walk around, bought a few gifts and enjoyed a pork gyros and a carafe of wine before heading back the hotel, highly recommend doing that. We also ate out at a local taverna one night to try the local moussaka, just left at the top of the road, walk about 5 mins, which was lovely, the staff, wine and food, and the complementary dessert and raki they gave us went down a treat. The Wild Rose just on the corner was fab too, nice cocktails and beer in a chilled environment of an evening, again lovely staff. I can't rate our holiday enough from start to finish, we paid for am upgrade to a premium room and we felt it was worth it. An allround great little place, so if you're wondering whether to book then do, we already have for next year. Thank you Neptuno, can't wait to come back. Andreas we miss youuuuu 💖 Mandy & Paul (aka Elvis) 😘
