Dimitra Beach Resort

Beautiful hotel clean and tidy , staff can’t do enough for you We stayed in room 1101 2 bedroom apartment perfectly situated between 2 options for pools and sunbathing Good selection of food from breakfast all the way through to Dinner Good selection of spirits & cocktails throughout the whole hotel ant it’s many bars Evening entertainment hit and miss but I guess that’s expected with a multi cultural visitors Big thanks in particular to Dennis & Christina who welcomed us for 5 o clock beers at the top pool every evening

Just spent 14days and overall good despite a few easy changes that could be made. We had a bungalow which was great as they are central and less steps. Rooms fairly spacious. Lovely setting, views and grounds although nowhere nearby to walk to. Staff friendly and helpful. Evening entertainment basic but Greek night is good. Very limited activities for kids, almost nothing unless they are very young. Food ok but coffee needs to be hotter and water needs to colder and more easily accessible. Queues at the bar for water is silly as often people having cocktails. Just make water and soft drinks/beer self service. TIP take some water flasks. It is always windy mid Summer so elastic towel bands are useful, the wind is welcome when it is +35C. It’s a great hotel probably better suited for couples or families where kids can entertain themselves. Just about enough sunbeds but you have to queue at 8am. Maybe easier outside school holidays. Overall a good hotel and we had a relaxing holiday. Just needs a few easy changes.

This hotel surpassed all of my expectations. We are a family of 5 with children aged 16, 13 and 9. Before going my worries were there wouldn't be enough for the children, the food would be disappointing and the hotel would not really feel like a 5 star resort. I've stayed at 5 star resorts before and in my opinion this definitely feels like a 5 star resort and I absolutely loved it; I think it's actually my favourite hotel I've stayed in. There are a lot of steps, but I quite liked the steps because everywhere I walked I had a different stunning view, the views are absolutely breathtaking; and the walking up and down steps removed some of my guilt I felt for eating and drinking so much too! My husband used the gym of the sister hotel a few times and was very happy with it. He was allowed to take the children too as long as they were accompanied, and so they joined him one time. Everywhere is kept so clean, and the service is absolutely fantastic too. The staff at reception, the cleaners, the staff in the restaurants and bars, and the animation team were all so delightful, so lovely and welcoming, and very happy to address any issue at all. I'm so grateful to all of the staff for making our holiday so enjoyable, they are a truly wonderful team. I really enjoyed the cocktails and I thought the food was lovely, and I was surprised at how much variation there was each day from lunch to dinner, and from day-to-day. I really did enjoy the food and the drinks. Our children had a wonderful time, they do prefer keeping more to themselves, and although they didn't join in with any of the events or activities or watch many of the evening shows, they enjoyed being spectators occasionally and they all had a great time, especially helping themselves to treats. It was a big plus they could use inflatables as our favourite pool was mostly deep. We never struggled to get a sun lounger and many guests would free up beds at different times in the day so we never had that horrid feeling that we need to rush and bagsy them - I really do loathe that. We decided to not venture out of the resort, we wanted to make the most of just being there for a week. For our family, this resort had enough entertainment, and part of the reason we loved it so much, was that it didn't feel completely overrun with children and too much overpowering entertainment. We felt there was a lovely balance. You do need the water shoes for the sea, I was grateful to have picked up that tip from reading other reviews. The little shop sells some useful things, we bought some towel pegs so we could create more shade over our sun-loungers. We had a room that was, we think, the most remote room on the whole resort. At first we weren't entirely happy with it because we felt a bit too out of the way and were daunted at how much walking we'd have to do, but we grew to absolutely adore it and to feel so grateful and lucky. We loved the views we had and the privacy. We did hear the entertainment of the sister hotel next door - but we loved it, it never went on too late and we really enjoyed listening to their entertainment it was really good. Our room was 830, if you're happy to walk a bit more and need to accommodate 4/5 people, we think its awesome.
