Alkyon Resort Hotel

Unfortunately the Alkyon Spa was a disappointment - don't book if you're hoping for a relaxing spa break because the facilities will let you down. We arrived (May 2026) and were told that the heated pool was closed from 3.30pm every day for children's private swimming lessons. So if you arrive at check-in time (2pm), you have just 1.5hrs to use the pool. There is a separate 'spa' area with jacuzzi, sauna, steam - which costs €10 per person (this cost was not advertised anywhere at booking). When we arrived at the spa, they informed us that they need 1.5 hrs notice for the facilities to be 'switched on'. And if you wanted to use those facilities from 3.30pm, you'd have the relaxing pleasure of hearing kids being taught how to swim in the pool which is above the spa area through a skylight. The room we had was ok (we paid extra for a Superior Suite), but the spa facilities really let the whole experience down - don't book in off-season (Sept-May) would be my recommendation. Realistically - this is a 3 star hotel, with 4-star prices.

It's not bad, just that it doesn't exactly meet the requirements of the 5-star rating. Lack of Porter or Lift Service

We booked through Alkyon Website, tried to use the June's offer: book 4 nights and pay for only 3! But it wasn't possible. We were charged for 100% 4 days. That was first sad thing! The second was upon arrival, when you see that this isn't 5* hotel - while the building and park is quite OK, you see that this is more like a junior camp, not 5* leisure hotel. The dinner was noisy, no one offered drinks, no one asked if we don't want to order anything else.. we usually wear something nice for dinner, but this wasn't place to enjoy dinner. We had to go out of hotel for nice evening vibes. As we were first time there, it would be nice to get some more information about location - map of resort. We had no info. The pool and the rooms were clean, towels were good, beds comfortable. The seaside is really nice. Food wasn't so good, perhaps because so many students arrived for camping?! We didn't feel 5* services. There was very basic service.
