We had one of our best family holidays this year at Plessas Palace and to see the previous reviews that have been added over this summer has motivated me to add our own experiences of these apartments and the resort. Clearly the run of negative reviews are all for the same group and reading between the lines they tried to book a room to cover their late flight and got upset after they were charged for it! Pretty standard practice at every hotel and apartments wherever you stay in the world!! Just people not getting their own way!! So, we stayed at Plessas Palace in July this year and we had the best time from the first day to the last. We booked two rooms for the four of us and they were perfect for our needs. Yes, we paid for air con, but then we have done this in every apartments we have ever stayed in, nothing unusual there! The breakfast was continental and ok for us. Generally we ate lunch as well so didn’t need a huge breakfast anyway. The bar and all the staff in there are excellent and made our stay so much better. We ate lunch in there a few times but generally ate out in the evening at the many wonderful restaurants in the resort. We also attended the quiz, bingo and Greek nights at Plessas which were all very entertaining. On the back of this holiday we already booked again for next summer and we are also having a short break at the end of September which we cannot wait for.

GOOD POINTS - Rooms were clean - Shower was really good in the rooms - Good Pool - Very comfy Bed one of the best I have slept in also very comfy pillows was very impressed. - Cleaners were really friendly and always spoke BAD POINTS - Air con was absolutely awful in our room absolute waste of 70 Euros (10 euros per night) - Parts of room was a bit dated needs a bit of an update, however as previously mentioned they were clean - Hair Dryer didn’t work, plug in toilet was broken on first day (cleaner had it fixed the next day though) - Breakfast was not very good, could of had a bit more choice just didn’t look appetising at all. Useful Tips - 15-20 minute walk on average, it’s all flat aswell - Safe cost about 20 euros a week - Hotel bar sells water in packs of 6 so you don’t have to walk far with water as they are heavy - Best place to rent a quad or scooter is Marinos car rental it’s about 100m down from the hotel and has brilliant reviews so would recommend these guys we used them. - Supermarket on jct heading to beach closest to hotel is the biggest and best one for things you will need. Overall I would go elsewhere personally

After reading previous reviews we were a bit worried about going to the Plessas. It turned out to be not nearly as bad as portrayed by past guests There was an issue with rooms when we arrived which resulted in us having to sleep in another apartment on the first night. The next day we were given the wrong room 1 x (2 bed apartment instead of 2 x one bed apartments) . Maria quickly sorted this out for us and we ended up with 2 x 2 bedroom apartments and given free air con and free safe as compensation. I have read on previous post that people didn't expect to pay for air con however is does state on tui that it is to be paid locally, which in all my years of going to Greece I know as normal practice. The breakfast was basic, but truly nothing you could complain about. Cold meats, tomatoes , cold boiled eggs, cheese, feta cheese, bread, yogurt, fruit, yes there was cold beans, but if you don't like them don't complain just don't eat them We didn't go to the pool, it was clean but a bit crowed for us. We used the bar for lunch a few times and a drink in the evening and all staff were helpful and friendly and the food was lovey Our room was cleaned everyday , and had clean towels every other day. Sheets were changed 3 times in our 11 day stay. Overall yes there were issues BUT they were resolved quickly and to our advantage The hotel owners are friendly and helpful, the rooms are basic but are cleaned and towels and sheets are replenished regularly
