Hotel Almira

The man charging for the sunbeds was rude, and they cost €5 each. It was self-service, so for coffee or a drink on the beach you had to go into the hotel. I didn’t like the place.

We had a comfortable four-night stay, and the breakfast was big enough that we couldn’t finish it. The rooms were clean, and aside from a loose bathroom screw, we didn’t find anything to complain about. Nothing fancy, but comfortable, and the price felt fair. The staff were all friendly and very helpful, especially when we asked about getting around by public transport. The location is handy for the sea and beach snacks and drinks, with lots of good restaurants within walking distance.

We had a wonderful time and would happily come back. Agia Triada has a good supermarket within walking distance, plus a couple of excellent fish tavernas and several places serving really good pizza and gyros. The room was sparkling clean and relaxed, with everything we needed and then some: a coffee machine with tablets, toaster, hot water boiler, safe, cable TV, fully equipped kitchen with oven and plenty of utensils, and excellent wi-fi. There’s an elevator, so you don’t need to haul heavy bags up the stairs. The hotel has its own beach with a free sunbed for everyone staying in our room, and the wi-fi worked well there too, which is rare.

The hotel was full, but it stayed fairly quiet, and it’s in a peaceful part of the village. Parking in front is free. The owners are kind and the service is great. There’s an elevator, and a beach bar right outside for drinks and snacks. The beach is beside the hotel, while the center is about a minute away by car or ten minutes on foot. Our three-person room was small, but the larger one had been booked for a long time. Over six nights, the room was cleaned and the towels changed once. Breakfast costs €7 per person. It was enough, though the same each day. Good for the price, recommended.
