Esperides Beach Resort

Very nice family hotel, selection of food is really very good, travelling with children is important to have possibility to eat during the day, at Tutti Frutti restaurant from the 12:00 till 18:00 you can find a big choice, very tasty pizza maked by italian cook, watermelon, ice cream, burgers, pasta, fresh vegetables, what ever you want! The personal on the reception is very friendly, I asked before my arrival for the quiet room at upper floor and they gave me the room at 5th floor with really very nice view, thanks a lot!

The room was an upgrade from the twin I've expected, and allowed me to better accomodate my mom and kids. It was clean, and frankly, it was the first time my kids saw a bunk bed, so it amused them. The wifi signal was great across all the property. Food is amazing, well made and many options to choose from, with daily themes (I'm a fan of the asian cuisine myself, so double the fun). From 7:00 to 20:00 there's always something to eat, snack or treat yourself to. The fruit fridge is a nice touch to encourage kids to eat healthy. The pools, water slides and beach are clean, with plenty of beds to relax while the kids tire themselves. Many activities for kids under 12 (my older teen simply chose the pool). The staff is quick to respond to any issue and glad to help. A bus stop nearby would take you to Rhodos or other places. The giant waterpark in about 10 minutes walking is a good place to visit during the stay.

We stayed 4 nights in the hotel and I should say it exceeded our expectations. Looking from the outside, the façade of the hotel is rather outdated and does not promise much however interiors of the main area were obviously renovated and were well thought, modern and comfortable. The hotel is mainly visited by families with kids, as we were traveling with our 1-year old daughter I can understand why. There are a lot of amenities for children - several pools, playgrounds, green areas, waterslides, specific food sections, etc. The water on the beach up front is very clean and pleasant, despite the fact that the beach is not really sandy but more like a mix of sand and pebbles. Daily cleaning services throughout the whole resort and in the rooms were well done. Staff are well trained and very kind. We were happy that there was enough staff in any part of the resort if we needed them. What we were really surprised about was the variety and more importantly, quality of the food. There were a lot of options for any preferences. We were pleased to find a "mama's home-made" section, which we found very appropriate for our daughter. We also enjoyed a lot the sea food section and the grill one. I really did not expect to have such different, well cooked and overall quite good fish and sea food options updated on daily basis. I came in skeptical but I must admit I would gladly come back to the hotel.

Kids liked the water slides and a shaded shallow pool with a submarine or a playground with a helicopter. Also, there were many animations and activities and evening mini disco. Multiple restaurants helped balanced the load/crowds, so no long queues. Many palms or trees providing natural shading. Meal was quite OK. Nice and helpful hotel staff.

The overall experience was superb. The staff were very helpful and kind, and the location was excellent. It's highly recommended for families with children, as there are plenty of activities for them. The food was delicious, of high quality, and offered a wide variety of options.
