Marlita Beach Hotel Apartments

Marlita is CLOSED. Had a wedding booking with The Wedding Travel Company and found out by accident that the Marlita is closed. The excuse they used was work being done (nothing is bring done) found out from the locals that it's been closed since covid as a result from a dispute with the staff. We were moved into the Anastasia which was ok. Food ok, bar drinks fabulous and rooms very dated. We did complain and get moved to a better room. Do NOT BOOK to stay in the Marlita. It is indeed ALL closed and not due to reopen anytime soon!

AVOID!!!! This hotel is closed. We booked this holiday for 12th August through Easyjet Holidays. Just days before arriving I spotted a previous review saying closed. I contacted Easyjet who wasnt interested in helping they tried to assure me it was open. In resort rep said they couldnt help as we were not on holiday. We arrived to find it is closed and has been since covid. All we could do was sleep in the rooms which were nothing like the pictures advertised. Easyjet have only today replied to my complaint. They say the hotel is undergoing work. No work is happening at this hotel and staff said it will not be reopening. We paid over £4000 for 1 weeks holiday to get there and it is closed.

Do not book to stay at this hotel, it’s not even open, we booked in June 2022 for September 2023, a big party of us for a family wedding. We had to find out for ourselves that it was shut and are now in the middle of a nightmare trying to get accommodation sorted for everyone. The Marlita is open for you to sleep there but you have to go to the hotel next door for your all inclusive facilities, not what you want to be doing on holiday. Doing some digging there seems to be a lot of people in our situation

This hotel isn’t even open!!!! but they took my money for a week’s holiday. Luckily I realised a week before I was supposed to go there was something not right as I’d not had any communication from them .and no reviews since 2017. I I booked with Algotels which I now believe are not even a firm! I got in touch with my bank straight away and they investigated it and I got my money back . I managed to secure a room at the Constantinos The Great for £50 cheaper than the marlita ! I walked to the Marlita to see if it was actually open and it looked as if it had been closed for some time and looked almost derelict. I can’t believe this hotel is still advertising as being available! BEWARE of ALGHOTELS. They will take your money . I am so relieved I went with my instincts as I would have been dropped off on my transfer with no where to stay!! I was lucky I got mine back and also a chance to even cancel when the so called Alghotel sent me a confirmation a week before my holiday with a chance to cancel within three days! What holiday firm does this with a full refund? Never heard of this in my life that a full refund can be had in such a short timeframe of the actual holiday so I knew for sure I was being had! I think my bank did a great job investigating so quickly!

This hotel could be so much more! Summary if you don't want to read the whole review: everything was good apart from inside of our apartment. We stayed in Block A in Marlita Hotel at the end of October. Marlita is part of a large hotel complex, with multiple bars, swimming pools and aquapark. It is right across the beach, has got beautiful sea / pool view - it made me smile every morning when I opened up the curtains. There are lots of different shops, restaurants and bars nearby. There are very nice sandy beaches both to the left and to the right and a lovely promenade alongside the shore. Just be aware that water in the sea was warmer than in the pool (freezing!). We stayed as all inclusive so we could book themed meals at different restaurants belonging to the same hotel chain, which we did: Mexican at Vrissiana Hotel was wonderful, we had the best experience ever - yummy food and impeccable customer service, 5*. There is a screen next to the reception where all bookings can be made. Food and drinks in Marlita were OK, the same things for breakfast every day, I enjoyed my eggs and bacon but we stayed only for 5 nights, if it was for longer I would have been bored with lack of diversity. Lunches and dinners were better and I definitely enjoyed my pinacolada! All the staff in bars and restaurants were nice and polite, some (Aistė  , Mixalis, Valent & Laura!) were amazing - thank you! There was kids disco every night, which my kids enjoyed (very energetic entertainment team), other than that no entertainment I  the evening other than 'live music' (bad). We used the aquapark and staff were really lovely there, kids (9&6) had lots of fun. The aquapark itself looks a bit tired and in the need of a good clean. Our apartment in Block A was on the first floor, it was very spacious and with lots of storage. And that's the only good thing I can say. Other than that it was really tatty and tired, ripped curtains, no mattress protectors (in the hotel, really??), stains on walls, bed, linen, dreadful shower curtain, hair everywhere, horrible mattress with springs I could feel on the surface - I could go on and on. That is such a shame because it could be such a lovely hotel, truly 4* family holiday place, just tidy it up! We visited in October 2019

It is our last day at this resort. We came here as a family of 4.It is a beachfront resort, the closest beach is rather rocky but still nice. We went all inclusive but I wouldn't recommend that. Foidod was quite repetitive with breakfast having the same options every day, lunch being mostly last nights dinner reheated. Dinner was pretty good most days. Rooms are definitely not 4 stars, rather 2/3 stars. Drinks are not the best. It is mostly a hotel for russian tourists, some of the staff barely speak English and the evening entertainment and activities are all un Russian. The attitude of the staff is sometimes annoying with us being checked for on a list at the entry in the restaurant at every meal, sometimes twice. Hasn't happened at any of the hotels with all inclusive that we previously visited. Il
