Amirandes Grecotel Boutique Resort

Advantages:1. The personnel all were very friendly from the lobby till the cleaning lady trying to solve all your problems 2. Minimalistic architecture give the space to breath very beautiful decorations Disadvantages: 1. Please don’t go to the restaurants of this hotel overpriced and the food sucks for two person 200 euros for a food that cost less than 20. 2. Rooms we’re comfortable but overpriced for the things that offered.

A truly relaxing hotel from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. The staff strive to make your stay perfect in every way and ask for live feedback meaning anything which isn't quite right can be tweaked. Beautiful setting, incredible food and perfect for couples and families, including multi generational families. I would return in a heartbeat! We received a warm welcome from the staff on the steps of the hotel which was lovely. We were then taken to a quiet spot for a personalised check in with Georgia and given a selection of three drinks plus water and iced tea, and a couple of snacks. The views from this area are stunning and it set the perfect tone for what was to come. We stayed in a premium bungalow which is just 60 steps to the sea. It was relaxing listening to the sea before dozing off. Really nice room proportions and the bed is incredibly comfortable, we slept so well. We had a shower and bath which is not all that common these days but all the hotel rooms have both. Really easy to use shower with great pressure and it was nice and warm. There are also two sinks (be careful of the stiff taps), toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash and body lotion) and amenities. There is a reasonable sized wardrobe with enough hangers for the week if you double up, a laptop-sized safe, coffee machine (2 pods per day), a mini bar which you can fill for a charge, a powerful hairdryer (the cord is very short which means drying the back of your hair is tricky if looking into the mirror!), dressing gown and slippers. There was no full length mirror in these rooms (they do have them in others) and when sitting down on the pouffe by the dressing table, I could only see my eyes upwards. Lots of storage in the rooms but the unit has no handles (it's a push system) and they're not the easiest to access. The bungalows have a little porch area with two chairs and a table plus a drying rack and then there is a small grass area before you reach your two private loungers and parasol. We stayed in room 504 and had the sun on our loungers until mid afternoon. Then we headed to the communal loungers on the grass area in front of our room. If you like privacy, be mindful that these rooms do have people walking past, but it's not heavy traffic and you do have that space between your room and the pathway. We loved being so close to the sea. / Really good food! The buffet area is compact given the size of the hotel and when it's busy, it's a bit of a squeeze but it’s a pleasant atmosphere and unlike any other buffet I’ve been to. If you hate buffets, it’s probably because of the mass produced food and canteen like atmosphere; this is not like that. We're vegetarian and found options at dinner were a little limited. If you enjoy salad you'll love it here and we did enjoy the variety of salads made every day. However, the vegetarian options really need a little more thought. The salads/starters are great as are the desserts. We tried the Greek restaur

I’ve just got back from 5nights traveling solo, staying at the Amirandes on a half board basis. In one word, it was absolute BLISS. I’ve never stayed at a Grecotel hotel before and I really lucked out because this hotel is stunning and the service throughout fantastic. The staff cannot do enough for you. I don’t usually upload pics, but I have for this review as the hotel is just gorgeous. The hotel is a mix of adults, couples and families. There is a giant salt water pool, which I didn’t use, plus kids pool and activities. So although I was traveling solo, I didn’t feel at all bothered by children or noise etc. If anything I found the total opposite, I thought it was extremely peaceful and only ever saw people at meal times. I spent everyday on the sun beds at the beach and whilst they keep a number reserved for those staying in Villas (which I was not staying in), I had no issue with being allocated one. Tip, ask the guys who work at the beach before sitting down, saves any awkwardness, they’re very accommodating. The beach beds are amazing, they’re so deep and comfortable. There is a beach bar next to it and the guys are very good at ensuring you have what you need and your beds are set up how you want. Special shout out to Manolis, Antonis, Giannis, Zenon, Nikos and Stamatis, they are ever so polite, friendly and helpful. They really looked after me during my stay. I had half board which included buffet breakfast and lunch/or dinner. They have an additional 4 restaurants which they will apply a discount for eating there if you choose instead of the buffet. I ate at Blue Monkey (Asian), food was fantastic and Xasteria (Greek), this was superb, best meal I’ve had this year and I love my food. I ate at the buffet the rest of the time and there is massive amount of choice, which is being replenished constantly. Big shout out to Eliza who makes the omelettes at breakfast, fresh on demand, lovely lady and she makes a ‘cracking’ omelette. Considering the hotel was full whilst I was there, the only time the hotel felt busy was in the buffet area and not to a ridiculous level, you can still navigate it easily. All the staff are just so friendly, happy to stop for a chat, which makes the world of difference, especially when you’re traveling solo like me. To show an interest in me and my day, helped me feel not so alone. A big shout out to Alexandros who was ever so kind and friendly. I was originally in a room which I believe is in the original part of the hotel. Very spacious, giant bed and garden terrace with 2 loungers. There was an interconnecting door which unfortunately meant I could hear a lot of conversations from the people next door. Ideal for families or friends, unfortunately not for myself who is a light sleeper. The reception staff were ever so helpful, special shout out to Evgenia who moved me into another room in the other side of the hotel, I believe to be newer. Gorgeous room, no noise, slept like a baby for the remainder o
