The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Culinary Delight

During my stay, I was amazed by the diverse buffet options available at every meal. The desserts were simply divine, with a different homemade pastry offered at each meal. I had never tasted such variety in 7 days, including good options like Paris Brest and cheesecake. The chefs truly excelled in catering to all tastes, and I couldn't help but indulge!

Great Gym Facility

I loved that the gym was air-conditioned and equipped with adequate fitness machines. It was not crowded at all, which allowed me to effectively work out. After enjoying the lavish buffets, it was great to maintain some balance with regular workouts in such a well-maintained space.

Luxurious Watervilla

My watervilla was nothing short of idyllic. The outdoor shower added a unique touch, allowing me to enjoy the stars while I showered. It was spacious, clean, and well-furnished, giving me that true luxury experience. Each evening, I could unwind while listening to the gentle waves.

My stay at Filitheyo Island Resort felt like stepping into paradise! The beautiful beach location and well-maintained grounds created a perfect backdrop for relaxation. The superior beachfront villa was clean and comfortable, but we did have some noise issues due to neighboring guests. While the dining options were diverse and delicious, the slight noise at night from the water bungalows was a minor drawback. Overall, the experience was made special by the attentive staff and great value for money.

The resort has a beautiful setting and offers great diving opportunities, but the rooms are in desperate need of maintenance and cleanliness. The service could be improved, as there were notable lapses, especially during busy times. While the food was decent, it didn't stand out as exceptional, and the water visibility for snorkeling was quite poor. Overall, it's a mixed experience that could be delightful with some updates.
