A relaxing holiday with a few buts,

Reviewed By Kinner2019

just got back from a relaxing four days, the hotel has new management so ignore any reviews from before two years ago, you can see they have made some major changes and where they are trying to take the hotel. The hotel itself has some breath taking views, it’s on a marina with some luxury boats that come in and out the of the port onto the med which is actually what the hotel reminds me of like a huge cruise liner without the boat part, right next to a soft shell beach. It’s not loud you won’t hear a lot apart from the noise of the waves and the sounds of conversations between families in all different languages, it basically shuts down at ten, the wifi is brilliant you get it even on the beach, no reserving sun beds, there’s so many, the hotel is so clean. The staff are the best you can ask for they take an interest in you, who you are, why you are there, always polite even if guests are not so much. The drinks are not watered down, you get a real glass of coke, true Gin in your drinks, with waiter service for lunch and dinner drinks, so if that’s your thing then it’s perfect and you don’t need to read the buts there are a few buts though. Remember in Greece you pay a hotel tax, it’s different depending on your hotel star rating, it’s based on the number of nights and payable on arrival so if you book four nights even if you arrive after midnight then you pay for four nights, that’s not just this hotel but as this is a five star hotel I think it’s relevant. If you arrive after ten at night there is no food even on an all inclusive, you have to wait until morning or pay additional costs, the costs for anything that’s not in the all inclusive is a lot, 1 Coca-Cola is 5 euros, that nearly five pounds for a glass of Coca-Cola. There is no electronics for sale close to the hotel so if your charger cable breaks, then you have issues, we managed to borrow one from one of the staff so always bring spares. You have to make arrangements for food and drink if you have a late transfer back to the airport, ours was late afternoon so we did get lunch but no drinks if you don’t then you will have to pay. Not all food and drink is part of the all inclusive deal and the food that is which is a buffet doesn’t change massively but the staff take great care in the preparation of the food. It’s always cleanly served, lots of choice but watch the labels I mistakenly ate beef which was labelled pork, needless to say I’m not supposed to eat beef, after my second bite I went to check only to be told it’s been mislabelled. However on an all inclusive package you do get one meal in the menu based restaurant away from the the buffet. The spa is great but as with all hotels it’s additional costs with no discounts for all inclusive packages. the gym has a glass view right next to the port, don’t get me wrong it needs new equipment so I had to train on the beach but a few days that I did train in there showed how well it’s been thought out. This hotel isn’t cheap in an era of rising costs of living, for most of us now a holiday is a luxury and you need to choose wisely. Would we go back? yes but it’s not my first choice and I think with where ever you go you should always leave with your hotel being the first choice to go back to especially a five star luxury hotel, even if that choice doesn’t last I’m not sure this hotel did that but with a few tweaks it certainly could do,

Lovely relaxing week away

Reviewed By sunseeker_8816

Just returned from a lovely week here, we had an amazing time the hotel is absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean, the staff are all amazing they were never without a smile the managers are always around the hotel and always said hello, nothing was too much trouble we asked for extra towels they were delivered straight away, we travelled as a family with a baby and almost 12 year old, there was certainly something for everyone the animation team work very hard and are so lovely and friendly they are only young but have so much energy to keep everyone active and engaged our daughter loved spending time with them, there is a lovely man in the restaurant that saved a banana everyday of our holiday and greeted us each morning with a smile and a banana! We travelled with a baby that has allergies and these were catered to fantastic! Nothing was too much trouble and they went out of their way to make sure he had something he liked( the lady with the blonde hair in the restaurant came straight over to us each morning which was so lovely) the reception staff were all friendly and always smiling we were greeted on our arrival with a drink and then quickly shown to our room, which was beautiful and spacious and spotless. We did venture to the shops down the road but to be honest it wasn’t worth the walk the hotel shop is well stocked with things you would need to buy, this hotel is perfect if your looking for a relaxing week away in a beautiful location over looking the sea but there isn’t much around it, this suited us as we were only staying for a week, the bar staff were also so friendly and we were always greeted well and with a smile, I did get bitten by mosquitos and the lifeguard attended to the bites and gave me some treatment for them he was a very nice man and also so happy and very helpful, we have never stayed anywhere like this hotel it’s unique for the service especially for all inclusive they really do look after you, you get waiter service in the restaurant at meal times and in the panorama bar we loved sitting in there in the afternoon on the balcony over looking the sea, the food and drinks were lovely we never struggled to find something everyone liked and we all ate really well (a bit too well!) I don’t usually write reviews but I felt this hotel really deserved a review! We don’t usually return to the same place as we like to see new places but if I was looking for a week away to totally relax I would certainly return, we had one day at the beach which was lovely and we really liked that you got sun beds and drinks with the all inclusive again not very often you get this, The staff are an absolute credit to this hotel they made us feel so welcome in all areas I did also visit the spa that was lovely very tranquil modern and clean the prices were very reasonable too.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

Reviewed By Jayne H

We arrived here after a long, tiring journey, and was checked in efficiently and quickly, then taken to our room with our luggage in a buggy. Our room was clean and spacious. Plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. There was a mini fridge, tea/ coffee and kettle. Free safe. Bathroom also very clean with complimentary toiletries. Shower over the bath was good too. Everywhere was so clean, and all the staff were friendly and very polite. Food and drink was good, and varied. We really enjoyed the Taverna (you needed to book) There were several pools, but our favourite was the poseidon pool, which was nearest to the sea and also had the poseidon bar. There was never any problems getting a sunbed. It was also fairly quiet. Entertainment was quite good , but there was lots of quiet places to just sit and drink if you don't want to be entertained. There isn't a lot to do off the complex, and personally I think it is more suited to families and older couples. The only bad thing, which isn't the hotels fault, is the mosquitos. We got savaged, lost count of how many bites we had, but at least 30 each. Mosquito repellent and some kind of itch relief or antihistamines are a must.

Brilliant!!

Reviewed By Cloudwalker587

AMAZING! The resort is based on 3 pillars. Eat, sleep and beach. To say the food is served outside under very nice tents would be an understatement… What an experience to sit outside overlooking the ocean with dolphins jumping around. Yes Dolphins. Granted they are not there every night, but that would be too much. The chef and his crew prepare excellent greek dishes with a modern touch. Thankfully not too modern. Due to the secluded location it is very quiet. The rooms are very spacious and luxuriously equipped. The internet works very well everywhere. The beach is private with very comfortable, Sunbeds, umbrellas, towels, and a great beach service is included. The water itself is beautifully clean. No water sports except the pink inflatable flamingo. The star of the beach. The staff are amazing!!! All of them are excellent hosts, friendly and smiling all the time, hence mentioning names would not be fair. Thank you!

Poseidon Hotel Sea Resort

Good accommodation, food dishes need some improvement

Reviewed By FloriPM

The hotel is near Neos Marmaras, close to the beach and to a pine forest. It consists of several buildings (A - K) with different types of rooms, double superior rooms, or junior suits with different views. It has a very nice and big garden with plants of palm trees, flowers, grass, a fountain, a children's playground and a pool for kids and adults. When we arrived at the hotel, the receptionist explained how to get to our building, but it is a little bit confusing as you need to search for the letter of the building and then the room number. If you have languages and a small kid, it is hard to get from the parking area to the building. You also need to sign if you want your room to be cleaned every three days or not all, but the maids come every day to take out the trash and clean the room. They didn't change our sheets for a whole week. The staff all around the hotel, at the restaurant, at the pool bar were helpful, kind, polite, and friendly. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. For a family of two and a kid you also receive a folding bed (not very comfortable and not safe for a 2 years old child). The furniture is brand new, the balcony is big with a table and two or three chairs and a laundry wire. The air condition works pretty well and only when closing the balcony door. The remote control is not working very well and the tv channels are few. The WIFI is free and has a good signal all over the hotel. The pool is nice and clean but crowded and you have to wake up in the morning to occupy a sunbed by leaving towels on them. You also have one table near your sunbeds, but nobody takes the empty glasses, so you need to take them to the garbage basket located in the middle of the distance. The drinks are not that good, especially the soft drinks and the coffee. The beer and the alcoholic drinks are ok. The beach is good sized, but it can be cleaner. The entry in the water is really bad, full of rocks, but if you have special shoes it's ok. If you want to have a drink, you need to cross the street and go to the pool bar. The same thing with the toilet. The restaurant is big, with lots of tables, but you need to have gloves to take your food and wear a mask. The food is not that great. A lot of semi-prepared food. The fish dishes were disappointing. We received twice some fried calamari and octopus and some pasta with seafood. For small kids, you don't have too many options. The pasta is the same every day, and the sauce, especially the "carbonara" tastes really bad. The salads and the cheese is really good. The desserts are the same, jars with vanilla cream covered with different things. The watermelon is omnipresent. You can get crepes, waffles, and ice cream at the restaurant. The breakfast is the same every day. I definitely recommend accommodation with breakfast, especially since there are quite a few taverns around where you can eat great food and you practically get the same price. We had one night of live music and kids have almost every night mini disco, an animator who entertains them for half an hour by playing and dancing to kids songs.

The hotel was supposed to refund the money from our booking in october, but never replied to any of our emails or calls. Very unprofessional and irresponsible of a 5-star-hotel. I’m still trying to reach them but no success. I at least expected an explanation. Before booking, think twice.
