Fodele Beach Water Park Resort

The hotel offers quality services, the beach is beautiful, and at the beach bar, you can enjoy the most delicious coffee with chocolate. The restaurant's chefs prepares extraordinary and diverse dishes for all tastes. The room is very clean, with daily housekeeping if needed. There is high-quality entertainment every evening, including for children. All services are impeccable, and the hotel staff is at the guests' disposal. We spent four holidays at this resort and will certainly come back in the future.

Amazing resort in a beautiful location. Very nice and helpful attitude of the staff. The food was absolutely great.(There is really something for everyone). My son enjoyed the water park and the train ride around the grounds. The beach was beautifully clean and well maintained. I would also like to highlight the animation programs which were excellent and my son looked forward to them every day. We already know that this was not our last visit to this resort. I can recommend it to everyone with a clear conscience!

Disappointing Stay – Definitely Not 5-Star Standard We arrived late in the evening and were initially impressed by the warm welcome at reception, which made us feel hopeful about our stay. However, the issues began as soon as we got to our room. We had paid around £4,500 for a one-week stay and were told this was a 5-star hotel, so naturally, we expected high standards. Unfortunately, the first room we were given was right next to a bird’s nest, and from 4am onwards the noise from the birds was absolutely unbearable – like being in an aviary. To make matters worse, the corridors leading to our room were filthy, with bird droppings on the walls and floors. I’m currently unwell and really needed this trip to be restful, but two nights of disturbed sleep made me feel worse. We reported it to reception and were told it would be sorted, but nothing changed. On the second day, we showed staff videos and were eventually moved to a different room – but this meant more packing, unpacking, and physical effort in the heat (around 30°C), with steep steps all over the complex. As an animal lover, I can be understanding, but not when the noise and mess seriously affect the quality of your holiday – especially for the price paid. The pool areas were another letdown. The water wasn’t clear even first thing in the morning, and green algae could be seen around the main pool and especially in the aqua park pool – the one with the bridge. The water there had visible thick green sludge which made it look poorly maintained and unclean. While the front desk staff were pleasant, most of the other staff around the hotel seemed disinterested and even rude at times. It felt like they didn’t want to be there. During our stay, the hotel was mainly filled with French and German guests, with very few English visitors. The entertainment seemed geared solely toward those groups. For a family hotel advertising itself as 5-star, the entertainment was incredibly poor. One small Greek dancing performance was all we saw – and it was very repetitive. I’ve honestly had better in a 3-star hotel. The food was also disappointing – extremely repetitive with very little variety. Everything seemed to be pork-based, and I had to search for chicken, which really should be a basic offering. The flavours weren’t great either, and overall, the dining experience didn’t reflect the hotel’s 5-star label. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this hotel. It felt like a lot of effort and very little reward for the money we spent. Serious improvements are needed in cleanliness, food, entertainment, and customer service.

A beautiful location with the architecture well appointed within the vista. Our family suite gave us plenty of space and the furnishings and decoration were to a good standard. There is plenty of space at all the pools, waterpark and beach, so no silly mad dashes for loungers. Staff are friendly and helpful. Kids loved the waterpark. We really enjoyed Elia for food. The main restaurant is good for breakfast, fine for lunch and the evening meals and provided a good selection.

A Fantastic Family Holiday – 10 Days of Relaxation and Fun We stayed here as a family of four (our kids are 10 and 13) for 10 days, and it was hands down one of the best resort experiences we've had. The location is breathtaking, with panoramic views that never get old. The variety of activities is spot on - beaches, watersports, multiple swimming pools, and a waterpark that kept everyone happy. Whether we wanted to relax or keep active, there was always something to do. My son and I went jet skiing 3 times! But what really made the trip special was the staff. We’ve stayed in many resorts, and this was easily the friendliest, most attentive team we've encountered. Everyone genuinely went out of their way to make sure we had a great time. Not a single bad experience. A few special shout-outs: • Popi at the Starlight Bar – Absolutely wonderful. She looked after us the whole holiday and made every evening feel special. • Aristea in the main restaurant – So kind and attentive every day. She really made us feel welcome. • Harry the maître d’ – A great guy who clearly loves what he does. Bonus points for his collection of "dad jokes"—our kids loved him. • Frederico by the pool – We looked forward to our morning chats while he did his rounds. A lovely person with some impressive dance moves! All in all, the hotel is beautiful, the setting is stunning, and the staff are even more remarkable. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. One tip (not the hotel's fault): Don’t rely on the local bus. We booked tickets online, waited at the bus stop on the highway for 45 minutes, and it never showed. Renting a car is a much better option.

Great place to relax and they have a nice spa where you can get the best massage. Also the staff is very helpful and they make you feel welcome.
